What is the best day and time to launch a WSO?

20 replies
I have a WSO I am getting ready to re-launch. My question is simply this: Is there a better day or time to launch a WSO and get the best results?

    Not really.

    Different days have different advantages and disadvantages.

    So long as you have good affiliates in place then the day of the week should not matter too much. You are better to spend your time on recruiting affiliates than worrying about the time or day of the week.

    Since there are so many other launches each and every day, you really need some strong affiliates and good prelaunch and launch if you have any hope of rising above that white noise.

    If you are just launching and relying on traffic from the forum then you'll likely be disappointed with your results. So make sure you work hard at getting good affiliates on board before you launch.

      Do your research, watch the views of the wso forum, watch how fast threads go down the forum, take down the data and come to your own conclusions!

      Can you guide on how to get more affiliates on board before the launch?

        There isn't an ideal time or day for the fact people keep making recommendations and assumptions that result in huge windows of opportunity for those who aren't following that very protocol.

        Affiliate marketing is more accurately called relationship marketing.

        It is about helping one another. Doing things for other people before you expect them to do things for you. The best affiliate relationships are those grown over time.

        Start networking.

        Start getting to know others in the marketplace.

        Start helping other affiliates and promoting others products before you expect them to do the same.

        One of the quickest ways to get attention and support from top affiliates is to promote their products and get great results. They can't ignore you when you do that.

        Just keep in mind there are many products being released each and every day. This wasn't the case a year or two ago but it is now. This means affiliates are spoilt for choice and I can tell you from experience, nowadays it is a LOT more to do with who you know than what you know.

      Thanks for the insight on affiliates and later down someone mentions buildng relationships. That makes sense.

        My friend released his WSO on a Wednesday at 11am EST and got some pretty great results from organic traffic.

    There is no better or worst time. What REALLY matters is the quality of the product that you are selling is well as the amount of affiliates you are able to recruit, as well as how greatly your sales copy converts.

    Worry the BIG stuff and forget about the SMALL stuff.

    You'll not get many sales from organic traffic so it's not too important. Obviously you'll still want to do it when there's a reasonable amount of people online but focus on getting affiliates on board if you want to see any results.

    WillR is right, if you don't have enough affiliate's to help promote your WSO, it won't matter what time or day you launch your WSO.

    Most people think that making a WSO will mean instant cash, that is not the case. Most successful WSO owners drive their own traffic to their WSO's

    Best time changes as soon as a bunch of people discover they know the best time.

    I figured out the time I wanted to put mine up and did so under the assumption it would only be on the first page a max of 6 hours. Calculating what time to put it up was kinda fun. I'd do it again that way if I ever put out another WSO..................but I sure wouldn't put my method on the forum for 100,000 other warriors to read.:rolleyes:

    If you're worried about timing, the day doesn't matter so much as what other WSO's are scheduled to launch on or around that day that your JV partners have already committed to. That's where you're traffic is going to come from--JV's and from the list you've already built. Putting the date out there a couple of weeks and getting JV's to commit to mailing their list is probably going to be the biggest scheduling/timing issue.

    Good luck on your launch.

      I'd forget WSOs and Warriors entirely and go build a "real," long-term business. :rolleyes:

      But that's just me.

        True words Michele.... Never rely on third party companies or websites for your income...

        You will be terribly disappointed and caught off guard someday when they get to change their TOS.

          That's a valid point, but the IM world is so fast-paced and there are changes all the time everywhere, that one of the most important qualities you must possess is to adapt effectively to those changes.

          So if for whatever reason a third party company changes it's policies, you should always have a plan B, C and D ready...

    if you want a good result from your WSO sales, I am sure time is an important aspect to be think about. some people is usually look around WSO to find some really good product after they get their day job paycheck. I suggest you to release it in the early week or early month.

    there is no right or wrong time, it's all about creating a great offer. Then doing some marketing and traffic on your end, not just relying on the WSO section.

    I've had WSO of the day 3 times, have earned more than 100k just with wso's, and have had affiliates send me over 1,800 sales.

    I can promise you that there is no best day, date or time, it all comes down to a great offer, and great marketing.
