After my recent experiment with eBay’s Classified Ads, I had many people asking me which Clickbank products I was promoting to get such a good response. Personally I don’t think my results were anything spectacular, but it for the outlay, my return was pretty decent.
The truth of the matter is that it wasn’t the product I was promoting that was the key, it was how I was promoting them.
You see many Internet Marketers make the mistake of trying to sell a product through an ad with these key mistakes:
1. They use ONLY the product name in eBay’s title – very rarely to do people search for specific products. Instead of the product name: eg. Influential Cash Quarterly (made up name), use the benefits in the title instead e.g. Make MONEY ! New Influence System Made Me Thousands!
2. Think about DESIRE – Why do people want that product? To Lose Weight?, Find Love?, Make Money?, Use those desires to promote your product but keep it real and don’t over-hype.
3. Don’t try and sell in your ad. The sales page will do that – Your job is to create enough interest for people to CLICK THROUGH to the VENDOR!
4. Really the best tip I can give you is to become really good at working out what people want and giving THAT to them.
How did I get so smart? I learnt many of my Internet Marketing skills from Wealthy Affiliate. I’ve been a member for over six months now and before I joined I couldn’t sell squat – They gave me the lightbulb to realise how to be a successful internet marketer.
I do realise that the monthly cost of Wealthy Affiliate is a little high, in the beginning I was just going to join for one month and learn everything I could and then quit – but I’m still a member because the skills I have learnt have more than made back the cost of membership.
Anyway I hope that this answers all your questions. Good luck with your Classified Ads!
