How it works

 

1. Download Package

Once you have paid you will be automatically taken to the download page. Here you download the purchased package. The file is compressed (zipped) for easier and faster transfer. Once downloaded the file on your computer, unpack it (if you do not have a program to unpack, you can download for free Winzip or Winrar).

 

2. Choose a product

Select one or more products to sell. You can sell how many products you like, but to make things easier, it is recommended to start with a couple. Check the web pages of the selected products and if you want, customize them. If you have a blog or already have a web site, just copy the content of the sale page in your page. Remember that the number of sales is directly proportional to how much success you have in convincing potential customers, so if you think you can add something to the web pages to make them better and generate more sales, do it. You don't need a professional html editor to change the content of the pages, you can actually do this with a simple notepad.

 

3. Upload the web page

The next step is to upload the page on a web server. To do this you need a hosting account, a domain and a FTP program. There are countless opportunities, free or not free. Register a domain and create a hosting account are very simple things that can be done in 10 minutes. Don't be scared by this. If you have a blog or already have a web site, just copy the content of the sale page in your page.

 

4. Register your product to an affiliate network

If you plan to leave the promotion to the affiliate, register your product in an affiliate network. Here too there are many possibilities, from Paydotcom to Clickbank and many others. Once you have registered your product it will be automatically entered in the network marketplace, and therefore visible to hundreds of thousands of affiliates. In a few days you'll have an army of affiliates promoting your product, generating traffic to your page and sales. If you think you have enough traffic to work without affiliates, then do not perform this step. The advantage of course is that you do not have to share your earnings with affiliates.


5. Done

Now you're done, supervise the development and if you want, improve the performance of your site. If you want repeat the steps 1 to 4 for other products.

Why it works


The start of a seller's career without any help can be tiring and time consuming. To write a book and build a web page starting from scratch requires a lot of time. InternetCheckpoint.com has a solution to all this. Providing everything you need, you can start with the sales after thirty minutes. This is confirmed by numerous testimonials provided by our customers and to clarify the concept please read the three case studies below.

 

______________________________________________

 

Case study 1: normal scenario

This case is an example of a customer who has followed the recommendations in the section tips. Without much experience, he easily managed to put up for sale 5 products, minimizing the initial costs and maximizing revenue. The products sold by the customer in question were: two ebook about dog training, a graphics software, an ebook about affiliate business and an ebook that deals with the issue of obesity. To enable everyone to gain from digital products, the content of the packs is changed every couple months.

 

Initial conditions:

- In possession of a domain

- Do not have a hosting account

- Little webmaster knowledge

- Little affiliate business knowledge

 

Estimated time and cost for each operation:


Operation Time Cost
download package 2 min $ 99.00
choose 5 products 25 min

-

register domain - -
open hosting account 5 min -
customize 5 web pages and products 11 hours -
upload 5 web pages and 5 products 25 min -
register to affiliate network 10 min $ 49.90
Total ~12 h $ 154.80

 


Evolution: after three days the products were visible in Clickbank's marketplace. Free hosting, a free FTP program and an already registered domain reduced initial costs. The products were all putted in the same domain in different sections (subpages). Affiliates have begun to visit the page the same day that the products have appeared in the marketplace and 6 days after the first sales started.

 

Revenue: the initial growth of sales has not been one of the fastest. Affiliates had to first become familiar with the products, but once a product has reached a certain number of sales, the so-called "exponential effect" began: for each product in the marketplace, a significant number is provided (sometimes called gravity) that indicates if a product sells well or not; when this figure is very high (the product sells very well), there are many more affiliates who decide to promote the product because they see greater gain opportunity. Of the five products on sale, sales have literally exploded for one, two products sold above average and are still growing, one discreetly sells and one sells only a couple of times a month. The gain was excellent from the first month (~ USD 945.00), grew in the second month and continues to grow. Following the revenue statistics for the first two months:

 

 

 

 

...

Revenue Details: 22 April - 6 May (left,start) || 6 May - 20 May (right)

 

...

Revenue Details: 20 May - 3 June (left) || 3 June - 17 June (right)

 

 

In the screen shot of the affiliate network Clickbank you can see the gains made during eight weeks. The account was opened the 22th April 2009 and the user was not a vendor before, he had no previous experience in this field. The sales are still growing by about 30% every month, so this value is only a partial value. The monthly gain of the second month was about USD $6,000. The affiliates commissions are already deducted, Clickbank does it automatically.

 

 

Monthly income (still growing): $6,000.00

 

 

 

Conclusion: being pessimistic (you must always be in financial calculations) and assuming that the growth in sales will stop at the level of the second month (this is not the case, growth has probably not achieved even half), we can calculate the following return on investment (ROI):

 

Initial costs  
Mid Pack $ -99.00
Domain + Hosting -
FTP program -
Registration aff. network $ -49.90
Your labor costs [1 year, at 20$/hour]  
12h (start) + 12h (1h/month) $ -480.00
Revenue [1 year]  
Gain on sales of one year $ +72,000.00
ROI [net gain/year] $ +71,371.10

 

With an initial investment of $154.80 dollars and estimated 24 hours of work per year (12 hour for setup, 1 hour/month for maintenance), our client is able to generate a net gain of about $71,000.00. He was able to cover the initial investment after 16 days. Simultaneous sale of five products, in addition to increasing the net gain, gives more of security. It may happen that a product at some point sells less, while sales of another rise, and vice versa. Selling five products at the same time creates a balance that provides security and constancy to the monthly income.

 

The user has chosen to focus on 5 products, but do not forget that in the Mid Pack includes 130 products. Potentially, only in the first two months, putting on sale all the products in a single web page for example building a shop, the potential gain is $ 198,000.

Case study 2: a good but not extraordinary example

This is the case of a user which has brought professionalism, commitment and continuity in his work. He already had some experience in the field of affiliations and decided to become a seller in its full meaning. He used free downloadable templates from the web to customize sale pages and created quality content. Aware that excellent results are obtained only with a lot of work, he wrote convincing content, adopted good strategies to entice affiliates to promote products, entered the products to several affiliate networks and offered for sale more products simultaneously. But not only, he also sold products on ebay. With a minimal effort he was able to offer for sale twenty-one products on its domains and forty-six others on ebay.

 

Initial conditions:

- In possession of a domain

- In possession of a hosting account

- Some webmaster knowledge

- Affiliate business knowledge

 

 

Estimated time and cost for each operation:

 

Operation Time Cost
download package 2 min $ 169.00
choose 67 products 15 min

-

write sales letters for ebay - -
upload products to ebay 5 min -
customize 7 web pages and products 11 hours -
upload 7 web pages and 21 products 25 min -
register to affiliate networks 10 min $ 79.80
Total ~12 h $248.80

 

 

Evolution: after 1 day the products were visible in Paydotcom's marketplace and after 4 days in the marketplace of Clickbank. Twenty-one products were offered for sale in seven different domains, some individually, others grouped by theme. The sale of certain products has started immediately, others had a slower growth, with the first sales after eight days. Sales on ebay had a slower progression. Ebay affiliates have played a marginal role in the sales, as most of the sales derived from direct contacts.

 

Revenue: selling sixty-seven products at the same time, there was a significant difference in growth between the products. Some had steady growth, while others have benefited from the "exponential effect", so when a product started to sell well, many more affiliates have begun to promote the product and sales have grown very fast. The user has supplied original copies of the statistics only for Clickbank earnings, while for ebay and Paydotcom he supplied the figures. Following, the revenue statistics from start to the third month:

 

 

...

Revenue Details: 14 January - 20 January (left,start) || 28 January - 11 February (right)

 

...

Revenue Details: 11 February - 25 February (left) || 25 February - 11 March (right)

 

Revenue Details: 11 March - 25 March

 

The revenue from the other networks for the same period (2.5 months):

 

Network Revenue
Paydotcom $ 71,463.02
Ebay $ 12,931.60

 

The gain showed above is only a partial value, since sales of most products were still growing and the the customer decided to put on sale only a few product contained in the Full Pack.

 

Monthly income (still growing): $122,000.00

 

 

Conclusion: adding up the costs, performed work and gains, you obtain the following prevision for the return on investment (ROI):

 

Initial costs  
Basic pack $ -169.00
Domain + Hosting -
FTP program -
Registration aff. network $ -79.80
Your labor costs [1 year, at 20$/hour]  
12h (start) + 12h (1h/month) $ -480.00
Revenue [1 year]  
Gain on sales of one year $ 1,440,000.00
ROI [net gain/year] $ 1,439,271.20

 

With an initial investment of 248.00 dollars and 24 hours of work per year, our client is able to generate a net gain of about $1,440,00.00 dollars. He was able to cover the initial investment after 9 days. Simultaneous sale of sixty-seven products in two affiliate networks and on ebay guarantees a huge monthly income without having to invest too much work after the set up. The tactic of loading a product into several affiliate networks and to sell ebooks on ebay and other sites, auction sites or not, is certainly a paying strategy.

Case study 3: worst case scenario

This is the worst case, the consequence of wrong or not smart choices that increased costs and decreased sales. Just one product was put on sale. While you can get hosting, ftp program and registration to the affiliate network for free, in this case some money has been paid for all services. The product offered for sale was an information product in the field of diet, a big market on the web but also very competitive and where it is difficult to steal customers to the big companies. In this case the person decided to sell only one product, even if he bought the Basic Pack containing 50 products. To enable everyone to gain from digital products, the content of the packs is changed every couple months.

 

Initial conditions:
- Not in possession of a domain
- Do not have a hosting account
- No webmaster knowledge
- No affiliate business knowledge

 

Estimated time and cost for each operation:

 

Operation Time Cost
download package 2 min $ 44.00
choose a product 10 min

-

register domain 10 min $ 3.90
open hosting account 10 min $ 19.90
ftp program 5 min $ 6.90
upload web page and product 10 min -
register to affiliate network 10 min $ 49.90
Total ~1 h $ 124.60

 

 

Evolution: after 4 days the product was visible in Clickbank's marketplace (this is the time that they need to process the web page). The evolution was characterized by a slow response time of the server. The web page had a long load time, a negative point to attract potential customers.

 

 

Revenue: following the revenue statistics after that the monthly income has stabilized around a value (in this case 2 months after upload).

 

15 days revenue (Clickbank, 4-18 June 2009).

 

The average monthly income is about USD $2,160 (already deducted the commissions for affiliates; Clickbank does it automatically). The value represents the stabilized value of sales. This value normally remains constant for at least one year, but could remain constant also for 10 years if the product is always actual.

 

Conclusion: summing it all (invested time and money, revenue), you can calculate the following return on investment (ROI):

 

Initial costs  
Basic pack $ -44.00
Domain + Hosting $ -23.80
FTP program $ -6.90
Registration aff. network $ -49.90
Your labor costs [1 year, at 20$/hour]  
1h (start) + 12h (1h/month) $ -260.00
Revenue [1 year]  
Gain on sales of one year $ +24,000.00
ROI [net gain/year] $ +23,615.40

 

With an initial investment of $124.60 dollars and an estimated 13 hours of work per year (1 hour for setup and 1 hour/month for maintenance), our client is able to generate a net gain of about $23,600.00, despite the choices he made were not the best. He was able to cover the initial investment in 7 days. This is the worst case, because you can download a free FTP program, there are many affiliate networks with no registration fee and there are countless opportunities to have a free hosting. You can minimize if not nearly eliminate the initial costs using free alternatives which are equal if not better than those for which you must pay. Other adverse factors were: only one product was put up for sale and in a nearly saturated sector; the sale page has not been customized and load time of the web page was long. A last point should be noted: in this strategy just one product has been put on sale, despite the basic pack contains 50 products. Putting more products on sale, you can not only multiply the financial success explained here above, but also increase your financial security, because your income no longer depends on a single product.

Final considerations

The sales statistics provided by our customers show that 96% of them cover their initial investment in less than 15 days. Users that acquires the Full Pack or the Mid Pack collect more success and the use of different tactics is the winning strategy: register to several affiliate networks, selling on ebay, selling on other sites, recruiting affiliates, etc. Another important fact comes from the traffic statistics of the pages of our customers: the people that already have a blog or a web site with some traffic begin with a slight advantage, but is not a determining factor. This is because usually the people who have previously visited the site are not the same as those who buy their products; targeted traffic (potential customers) is in fact sent by affiliates. A final point that comes out clearly from our database and our statistics: the highest number of success stories comes from users who keep things simple and identify themselves in the consumers.

 

 

P.S.: to enable everyone to gain from digital products, the content of the packs is changed every couple months or when it was sold a certain number of times.
