Yes, believe it or not, this manly meal has a niche market in parts of Montana, and if people can sell deep fried bull testicles and people actually eat them (which they do at the “Testicle Festival” each year in Missoula), you can sell anything. There is always a market somewhere for what you want to sell. It might be a small market, but unless you’re selling squirrel coats, you probably can start a business.

Yet, it’s much easier to start marketing with someone else’s product. If you do that, the quickest way to increase your sales is by marketing a product that converts well. That’s the quickest way. But there’s also a way you can do it that will increase conversions with your own list.

One thing you can do is a product review. You could create a web page that reviews the product. You could say, “I just read such and so and there are some pluses and some minuses to it,” and be really honest about it. Just have it end on a really positive, uplifting, good note. “I highly recommend this product who wants to do X, Y, or Z.” Then have that drive through your affiliate link. That way you can put up your own web page.

Another idea if you want to increase response is to do a teleseminar with the person who created the product and sell the product through the teleseminar. I guarantee that will increase some sales.

You could do an audio postcard that is an audio review of the product and has your affiliate link underneath the audio button. All of these things are options. You can’t change the sales page that you’re driving to. You can only change how excited people are about getting to that sales page before they get there. Does that make sense?

The other thing you can do is you can run an ASK campaign, you can run a survey to your list, asking them what their biggest questions are about your niche, for example. Then you answer their questions and have the next step be to go buy XYZ product that really goes into this topic in detail.

So send a few emails out to your list, put an email in your autoresponder with an ASK campaign. You can use the ASK Database to do that. What you’re looking for are ways to interact with your subscribers in order to get them more active and to get them to trust you more.
