Slicker's Monetization Case Study

what do you think is realistic? My sales copy writer thinks that 3% is more likely, in fact our written agreement says I get a refund if it doesnt convert at atleast 1% with a $27 price point.

If you pay him the money and it's in his account you will NEVER get a refund from him. Your written agreement won't matter one bit unless you use an escrow service that holds the money until the conversion rate is discovered or something - and he'd be pretty dumb to agree to that.

You'd have to sue him and that would be way more hassle then it's ever worth for the amount your talking.

obviously, but normally putting things in writing makes people slightly more likely to follow through on what they say. Plus it was paid with paypal, and if it came down to a dispute and documentation is helpful.

With that said, I am not worried about it converting well, or the person not delivering.
 
Update:

Ebook is finished, content was finished a couple days ago and the layout was just finished.

Sales copy should be done today and I will be sending it off to the designer this evening, everything should be ready for launch by late next week.

did you like the ebook copy? approved in the first draft?
 
content was approved on the second go around. It was good from the first honestly, it was written very well.
 
Ok the final sales page design revision was finished..took a little longer, but now its being coded.

Everything looks great, we keep u all updated upon launch, and let you know how it converts.
 
My hope is to convert at 1%+ and I have been told that that shouldn't be a problem. We will see. My starting price point will be $27, so if I can convert 1% at $27 with 10k uniques a month to my sales page, that would be 100 sales or $2700

Assuming you convert at 1%, you won't be converting all your websites traffic at 1%, i think you mean your landing page. So it's not 1% of 10,000... It's 1% of the amount of people that land on your sales page...

actually my sales page will be the main page of my site, im also basing that 10k off of specific keywords, not all of them
 
quick question, would you guys consider "acne treatment" a buying keyword? thats not at all my niche ha but curious what you all think
 
ok, quick update, THE SITE IS DONE AND UP!!! Finally ha, for now I am using just paypal as my payment processor until clickbank approves the site, I will be submitting to clickbank tomorrow
 
An ebook about acne treatment? I don't know. On one hand people are pretty desperate to get rid of that but most of them are probably teenagers without credit cards. There's also tons of info out there and it's so common that people pretty much know that they either go to the store and buy something or go to the doctor. Maybe it'll work if you've got a good angle. Good luck with it!
 
Is it about acne and you have Canadian traffic ? I may help you for free to monetize:) just to see how it's working on "search"
 
Lol.. anyone else notice the templatep2p tab open in that first screenshot...

did u really get a legit writer or are u just spinning an already crappy ebook from the site.. that might explain things...
