OK... Here is a free example of how you can boost the sales to your program overnight.

In this issue we will address newsgroups...

You ALL pretty much ban the use of newsgroups as advertising. It seems as though each new program just basically copies the TOS of an older program and calls it macaroni...

Why this is a STUPID idea for you...

I did some testing and here is what happens when you post to newsgroups:

2750 uniques - 23 signups - $805 - 1:120 ratio @ $35 per sale w/ .29 per unique.
1500 uniques - 33 signups - $614.02 - 1:45 ratio @ $18.61 per sale w/ .41 per unqiue.

That is with a total of 20 galleries posted over a 7 day period.

Next month with ZERO new posts...

1318 - 19 - $665 - 1:69 @ $35 w/ .50
671 - 6 - $269 - 1:112 @ $44.92 w/ .40

The second sponsor was revshare...

Month later.. 2 months AFTER posting...

182 - 3 - $105
237 - 1 - $167 (again revshares... so 9 rebills)

3 Months AFTER posting...

90 - 1 - $35
202 - (6 rebills) - $84

Test #2

8627 - 30 - $1050
3127 - 12 - $199.74

Month after:

6958 - 23 - $805
30039 - 122/8(rebills) - $1774

No more posting, 2nd month

3453 - 6 - $210
10678 - 12/16 - $441

And 3rd month...

1411 - 4 - $155
5021 - 4/12 - $234

What does all of this mean? It meens that if you are a sponsor and don't post your own sets to newsgroups you are a moron! You are already posting these FHG sets through your affiliates in TGP's and other "accepted" methods of advertisement. By disregarding newsgroups as a source of income you are missing out BIGTIME on an untapped revenue stream.

Some would say it is "spamming" the newsgroup... Fuck them! They are purposefully downloading your entire members area and cropping the photos to remove the watermarks with batch programs. It is about fucking time you DID THIS to start MAKING MONEY off of a medium that is NOT going away.

You WILL buy P2P advetising on Limewire and other networks but you won't do it in newsgroups? Why? It is beyond me! It is content you already are releasing to affiliates. Start using it to promote your programs in newsgroups instead of allowing them to ruin your bottom line!

Now you are going to say, "Who gived a flying fuck about $1000 a month!" My response is to remind you that in the above tests I got paid a "percentage" of the total revenue only and I only posted a small amount of posts. Had I posted 10 sets a day for 30 days straight (or all year long) per site, per program the amount I would make would be to enormous to pass up.

So why did I stop? Both affiliate programs I had a prior relationship with and they asked me not to promote them in this way. When I explained it was a test and that it shows you can make a large sum of money by posting your own pictures in newsgroups they just simply couldn't get their heads out of their butts...

If you have a program you need to be promoting it YOURSELF in newsgroups and thank me at the next show...

Have a nice day...

I can't wait for the replies flaming me... Just keep in mind the loudest replies will be those people who are already doing this as an affiliate and would rather I didn't make this post.
