How To PROFIT With Guaranteed Signups Part 1
One question we get asked a lot around here, is “Will I make money using your Guaranteed Signups service?”
While there’s no POSSIBLE way we can guarantee any of our advertisers will make money, we’ve been around long enough to give out some pointers that will definitely increase your chances of seeing a HUGE return on your advertising investment with our product.
I’ll start with a simple method to get the series started: use our signups to complete forms for CPA programs that pay per lead.
PROS:
Obviously, if your CPA network or advertiser pays you more than .69 cents per lead, you’re going to be profitable.
CONS:
There are actually 2 reasons why you could have an unsuccessful campaign sending guaranteed signups to a CPA landing page:
PROBLEM 1:
By the time our users see your page, they’re already prepared to complete at least the first form. So, 100% of your visitors from our path will sign up. Most networks will go nuts (in a bad way) if you have 100% conversions to their offer.
HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM:
We recommend you send traffic to the offers your guaranteed signups campaigns are on to balance out the conversion levels. For example, if you purchase 500 guaranteed signups, you should probably be ready to send at least 2000 to 3000 hits to that site during the same time period. If a maximum of 10% of those visitors convert, your looking at a 26% conversion rate which will keep you from closer scrutiny from your network. You can buy traffic anywhere online, or use traffic exchanges to drive hits to your website for less than .01 cent per click.
PROBLEM 2:
The traffic from the guaranteed signups might not back out for the advertisers, and they scrub your leads. While we maintain a high level of quality for the traffic on our network, ultimately we’re not specifically advertising EVERY single website in it’s own way. This means that we’re targeting business opportunity prospects, and you may submit an offer that pays per lead that may SEEM like a business opportunity, but is more geared towards getting experienced business owners to convert.
We don’t make the distinction of your marketing strategies, we simply place your offer on our network and charge you for the users that signup for the offers.
ONE WAY TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM:
The reason we created the “100 guaranteed signups” package was to allow affiliates to TEST the quality of the traffic for offers they plan on running through their networks. A great way to do this is to put a landing page with similar verbiage that your CPA offer uses to get the signups, and then follow up with email, or phone, or whatever to make sure the leads are actually interested in the offer, and will create profits for the advertiser you’re going to be an affiliate for.
CASE STUDY:
One case study for this is a customer who was pushing the “Partner With Paul” CPA offer.
First, she created a similar lead capture page to the partner with paul site, and used her own autoresponder to capture and follow up with the leads.
Next, she began to send similar emails as the partner with paul series to see if the leads would actually be responsive to the message.
Finally, after discovering that the leads in fact WERE going to the site and making purchases, she purchased 5000 signups, and made almost $15,000 in under a week. AND GOT PAID on her leads!
Now, everytime she gets a check from the networks who pay for her traffic, she comes right back to PowerSignups.com and purches 5-10,000 signups.
EASY, right?
Again, the test campaigns aren’t there to make you rich, or even hugely profitable. They are there to help you TEST inexpensively and quickly. If you’re a responsible affiliate looking to do the right thing by your advertisers, you will first run a test camapign to your own autoresponder that closely resembles theirs, and once you’ve got the results THEN turn on the traffic and get paid.
