So Let’s Talk About Something Taboo

We’re all friends here, right? And I’m not afraid to talk about things that concern my friends but aren’t considered polite conversation.

So I’d like to talk abut the sorted topic of coin.

As you all know, I’m on the verge of releasing either a collection of products or one mega-product that breaks the steps of getting free traffic down into manageable steps.

What’s coming up a lot in that topic is that $97 is a high price for some people.

Now I know I could charge $97 for this product, and find people who would pay that with absolutely no problem. It’s definitely worth that price, and it would sure get you a lot more than $97 worth of traffic if you followed the directions.

But I want this to be a wide release, and to help as many people as possible. So I have two questions, coming up in a minute, but before I ask them, I want to do a short preface so you understand where I am coming from.

Even when I was flat broke and had no credit, when it came to a business investment, I could come up with up to $200 for a business purchase if it would either save me money or make me money. And I’ve been pretty broke. What I’m seeing a lot of people say in the other thread though, is that $97 is a lot of money to you. Now, I’m still not at the point that I would wipe my behind with a $100 bill, and I hope I never will be, because that’s insane.

The second part is that, when it comes to selling a product that other people are going to profit from, creating a $97 product leaves room for everyone to profit. Creating a $27 product doesn’t leave much of an affiliate income.

So here are the two questions.

1- What is your price barrier when you are making a purchase to improve your business? I ask because a lot of my colleagues read my blog, and this might help me, and them, make more products that are in your budget, or break some of our products down into more manageable purchases, and also have other high end products for the other side of our market.

There are a lot of us that care evenly about how much it would help you and how much of a profit we’d initially make. So this is your chance, speak up.

2- Would you rather make half of $97, but make fewer sales, or make half of $27 and make more sales? I ask because I could break the product down into products that are available both separately and as a big unit.

Don’t forget to leave your links in the answer.

  • Hi again,

    Thanks for coming back. Sorry I missed your comment.

    I always offer a money back guarantee, and free resources, in fact, I just about INSIST that readers exhaust my free resources before they buy anything from me. That's why I have a blog in the first place, to provide general advice to people who can't afford it.

    Thank you very much for your suggestions - and we do have a private blog at trafficreality.com. We don't advertise it because it is closed to new members until July.
  • IMO most people get into AM because they're the 'workng poor' to begin with. Then you buy products that promise the world and don't so you become leary of it all. I would maybe offer a free download of a chapter or table of contents, and/or a money back guarantee. Maybe a private blog with access for members only? Just thinking out loud.
