Very interesting — eye opening!! thank you for this great feedback on the wonders of eCommerce
Can’t afford another high ticket program what it’s looking to be
Trying to get shopabot going not able to start another project
Unless his price is right and affordable
Hey Greg, Sean does have a software he will share but even if you can’t buy it it’s worth making it in there for the training. And if you have more questions about ShopABot and really getting that cranking so your finances aren’t so much of an issue come and post them over here https://wildfireconcepts.com/new-shopabot-demo/ 🙂
Hi,
Great video! This is very handy. Please, Is it possible to get the direct Vimeo link? Streaming in my region is very expensive, thank you.
Andre
No worries Andre – you can grab it here: https://player.vimeo.com/external/260880751.hd.mp4?s=83653e89434f57aa5d8350db1e0c81ce701f1011&profile_id=174
Hiya….Interesting and hope I will be able to get to the webinar. I live in the UK and work shifts so if I miss it tomorrow will there be a recording? I know of Sean Donahoe and seen many of his products so I will be very interested in what he has to say. May I also say that I appreciate the e-mails from you as I bought your program……Great service…
Thanks a lot Paul, it’s great to hear you taking action too! Yes, we are recording it – but – sometimes recordings go wonky, stuff breaks – or other unforeseen circumstances arise – so if possible try and make it, but I get that not everyone can attend it live… we’ll do what we can!
Great post, thanks guys look forward to seeing you on Thursday
Very interesting, both in a good and bad way for shopabot customers. Here is what I mean. Shopabot is a Amazon affiliate platform. And as stated affiliates make 10% max. And as you said you have to work your but off to get that, it’s more like 3%. So at that number, a person would have to sell $10,000 a day to make $300 a day. That’s $3,650,000 a year in sales for a $109,500 a year. And lets not forget ad cost, autoresponder cost and everything else that has to come out of that. So it sounds to me we need to be able some how to add our own items to our shopabot stores that we can make more money off of. That’s what I got from this interview.
Hey Michael, that sounds awful! It doesn’t quite work like that though – 3% isn’t that common, you’re definitely going on the lowest end of things – and looking at it from a very limiting perspective. While the idea of selling $1,000 of products a day sounds like a lot – you can do it, it’s amazing how quickly sales start adding up when you have a couple of customers buying a couple of higher ticket items.
With Amazon you find you’ll sell the most random things. The best paying items I’ve sold were a grand piano (?!?) where I got paid almost $1,000 in commissions for that… and someone else bought 3 years food supply for an underground bunker… again – that sale landed quite a healthy commissions check in my bank.
That said, there are always more ways to expand what you’re doing and build on it – so we’ll keep presenting options 🙂 Part of being an entrepreneur is about being adaptable, flexible, willing to take (calculated) risks etc. The key thing is to keep trying until you find something that works for you.
Keep questioning and giving feedback – but please be open too, because so much of what we do can be stopped before it’s even started if you get caught up in what might not happen – without really giving a go at a potentially huge possibility.
You are right it does sound awful. And that’s why I made the post. To start the discussion and get your feed back. I often play the devils advocate : ) . Believe me I have no intention on giving up, I can’t, I won’t! And I always have a open mind, some times too open #shinyobjectsyndrome .
I continue to go through everything you post, and I just went through your post of #NewShopabotDemo https://wildfireconcepts.com/new-shopabot-demo/ . And I noticed the niche you picked for your store. Very nice pick!
Looking at it made me question why you picked it. Some things were obvious, seasonal for this time of year and high ticket. But I dug a little deeper. And found out the payout percentage from Amazon. And by doing so it became abundantly clear why you picket the niche you did. But more importantly the Keywords and Category you used. Now granted you did not go into what you used to much and so on. But on page one of your store the items shown are at the second highest level of Amazon pay out at 8%. And with most of them being some what higher ticket, your profits should be nice.
I said all this to stress how import what niche, keywords and category’s someone picks for their site can be.
P.S. I guess I should post most of this on the New Shopabot Demo post to help out the community.
May You Live Long and Prosper,
Michael
TOTALLY appreciate it – and everyone else who posts. The more discussion here, the better we all get! Thank you for taking the time to play devils advocate – challenging things is definitely the best way to work out what works and how to make what we do better :).
Cindy,
Just watched the replay for Sean stuff, Question
With all the Facebook problems lately and they said they were shutting down all apps that look up people by profile, How does that effect this program??
As it looks like to me , anyway, that Facebook is in deep stuff and may over react . There are a lot of plugins or apps that target user looks to me like this system could be affected.
What you think, oh great one!!
