subject: How to Launch a Product on ClickBank [print this page] When my business partner or myself look for Affiliate Products to promote, we generally look through the ClickBank Marketplace. This is where I recommend you go to launch your own product if it's a digital product, since ClickBank doesn't allow you to sell physical products with them. You can sell vidoes, audios, ebooks or any combination of them with ClickBank. So why would you go through these guys?
The first reason is ClickBank will allow you to run your own affiliate program through them. Not only this, it's very easy to setup, and there are so many ClickBank affiliates already that it's easy for them to put your product on their website. All they need to do is know your Vendor ID. Most ClickBank Vendors put the URL Syntax on there website and create a small link that says Affiliate Program at the bottom center of their home page so potential affiliates can find it easy.
I believe it's only a one time fee of $50.00 to get setup as a ClickBank Merchant. To find out product ideas visit the ClickBank Marketplace and look for products that already have a high gravity. Then find someone on elance or a college student to create a similar product for you. This might end up costing you a grand or two, it depends on how complex the product is. Then you'll need to write a really nice sales letter or have someone write it for you.
Once you get your product on the market, you will want to share it with website owners in the same niche and ask them if they would promote it for you. Be willing to give them a free sample if they ask for it. I'd recommend paying at least 50% commissions to affiliates since this will keep you competitive in the marketplace. Some ClickBank Vendors pay as high as 75% commissions to their affiliates.
Also remember that the best affiliate programs on ClickBank provide their affiliates with a lot of different marketing tools. You should provide a wide variety of different sized banners, especially the most common sizes for blogs and banner exchanges. If you need ideas on this just look through the most popular programs and you'll easily be able to find out this information. You should also provide affiliates with text ads, email ads and a couple sample articles.
The more time you invest in helping and training your affiliates once you have a good converting sales page, the more money you will make. There are a lot of hungry affiliates out there trying to make extra money in all kinds of niches, so help them out and they will make you a lot of extra money.
