RE: Making Money from Premium Content - My Formula for Success (or should I say hard work)

in #business5 years ago

Do you think your sales results would have been worse if you just generated content for your website, kept an email newsletter and sold your courses exclusively there?

long story short, I sold courses that I delivered online but my sales were b2b, not online generated. I wasnt blogging or promoting it online. however I live in ireland and b2b is small in this sector. so I started blogging late 2016 with the aim of growing online presence and sales. But I found steem in 2017 and stopped blogging till 7 months ago, so I never gave this part of my business a real go. I had only stated to build momentum before I stopped. I only started again in Nov.

online customers have different expectations, they want offers and stuff all the time so mixing this with my b2b was not working. so I moved my b2b so I can focus more on the needs of the online market. now my call to actions on my own site are not for sales because I am trying to push this learn and earn thingy I am doing ( which involves steem) and too many calls to actions for users confuses them and just doesnt work.

my sales now, are more then they were last year. So to answer your question, No, I did not have the traffic to generate the level of sales I have now. Yes I had an email list of 5K+, but that's nowhere near the size of the email lists other have.

Thanks for replying! Your list is way bigger than mine. I have only 4+k. But it makes sense to focus on b2b. They have different mentality in terms of positioning and prices.

You are an Amazon publisher right? (Seen the link on your profile) how is that working out for you?

Small trickles every month... Steem ROI is better for me.
