Wise words.

Archive some kind of success online before trying to sell it to others.

In order to make sure once again that IM niche is something where you must have lists and bonuses to play with big players i conducted a little case study.

Recently i was trying to promote Blog Classroom by leveraging social media and Google AdWords. It got a lot of buzz and was promoted by many affiliates.

I used unique approach angle and used what is called Product Launch Formula method but for affiliates (since i wasn't the vendor). While all the buzz was created one week before Blog Classroom launch and they were accepting leads, i took that opportunity and started creating content for Blog Classroom and optimizing it for potential keywords.

Final results?

About 59 raw clicks to landing page
20 unique visitors
0 signups


Where i lost:

Spent time writing my own content about blogging.
Spent 3-5$ on AdWords Content Network which is nothing .


What i won?

Additional fat by sitting and spending time for nothing.

The conclusion:

Do not bother going into IM niche unless:

1) You have some authority in IM world
2) You have good incentive to offer
3) You have a list with people that bought from you once
4) You have JV partners
5) You have your own product and know how to market it correctly
