Going Viral

Going Viral.

In my opinion you are far better off using eBay to help your products go viral. By this I mean having others sell your products. If you do this correctly you have have an army of people promoting your products and services. Think about this for a minute, why have you paid such a low price for this product? It's because I want to put it into as many hands as possible and this means granting resale rights.

I have created a PDF MindMap that explains the sales flow of a typical information product sold via eBay.

However, it's not just a case of allowing people to resell your products, there is a lot more to it than that.

Here are a few tips that can help your product go viral.

1. Include a sales page. This is the biggest mistake I see made. Most of us simply don't have the time to create a sales page for your product. You know your product better than anyone else so include a well written sales page. Without a sales page it probably wont end up going viral.

2. Include graphics. A good sales page will have good quality graphics including at least one eCover. Try to include many different variations if possible. If you need help with graphics check out GFX1 Graphics as they can create any graphics that you may require.

3. Don't have a minimum sales price. Some will disagree with this but if you have a minimum selling price this will prevent others selling your product.

4. Don't put any restrictions on distribution. Some people say their products cannot be sold on auction sites or can't be added to membership sites? I know the reason is to keep the value of your product up but what's the point of creating something with resale rights that can earn you a backend income if you are going to restrict distribution? Allow it to be given away, added to membership sites, added to compilations, etc, etc.

5. Create a quality product others will want to sell. If your product is good quality it will go viral all on it's own, if your product is poor no one will sell it so take your time and make it the best you can. Remember, you can get all the help you need from me.

6. If possible allow some links to be branded. If you gave me a good quality product that could earn me money AFTER I have sold it do you think you will have more chance of me adding it to my eBay inventory? Of course you would so if possible try to create products/eBooks that can be branded. As long as some links still benefit you it will still make you money.

7. Work with other eBay sellers. We are probably one of the largest collection of information sellers on the internet. We can all help each other by selling each others viral eBooks and products. Work with other eBay members to promote each others products. We all have the same goal... To make money.
