It comes from other people’s bank accounts. WTF does that even mean? It means that to get paid, someone has to want to pay you. If you’re getting paid for advertising on your blog, such as Adsense, the advertiser is paying via a revenue share with the ad company. If you’re getting paid as an affiliate, the vendor pays you via revenue share. If you’re getting paid for your products, then the product must fill the buyer’s need. OK, I know that makes me Mr. Obvious, but what you might be missing is that everything surrounding the money link must be congruent in all of these situations. It must make sense for the buyer to accept the transaction because they’re getting value for their money. That could be the content itself or the pre-selling you’re doing for the product. Remember that the potential buyer is weighing up the value they get vs the cost. Throwing a bunch of overpriced bonuses does not usually add value. That ‘thud’ factor doesn’t sway me any more. In fact, it’s likely to put me off at lightning speed. I admit it did in the early years, but I might have got a little smarter. I need to determine that the product is worth the cost without the bonuses to be persuaded to buy. I also get really annoyed and ask for a refund if the front-end product doesn’t match the offer on the sales page. One-time offers are fine if I don’t need to buy them to get the functionality promised on the sales page. OK, we’ve established that the potential buyer will only part with their money when they see that they’re getting value. That might explain why you’re not retired on some beach right now. Same. Most marketers struggle with what to actually offer to their prospects. It can be difficult to be confident that what you offer has value in the marketplace. There is one product that sells consistently and is quick to produce. You could use this as a stand-alone product or as a bonus to swing a sale, and because it’s unique to you there is no competition. No ‘thud’, just a helpful bonus.
