Twitter - A Waste Of Time?
So for the most part I have been promoting on social media promoting WA. Ive gotten DM's questions like:
"how do I build a blog"
"How does building a website to make money from it work"
So I would send them a video of how the process works or the process of how to build a website ext.
The responses I get - "thanks" "ok I'll check it out" ect..
I explain to them that you can sign up for free to try it out, you can stay free, that theirs an upgrade option but you can upgrade at your own pace exc.
I try to cover all the bases so their won't be any surprises when they do sign up. I mean I've gotten a handful of sign ups but they do nothing. I really don't know what people are looking for.
I even had a guy DM me and tell me if there was a condenced version because the default page is too much to read.
I seriously think its the price. People don't wanna put in the work bottom line. They want a million dollars but they don't wanna work for it.
Any thoughs suggesstions?

I assume that most people when they try the free program kind of get into it. So, I am for size the free trial and particularly the free video lessons. But, I haven’t had too many conversions so don’t listen to me.
I just realized i didn't actually give you a solution. A technique I learned back when I was a Kirby salesman that I still use is the "100 'knocks' per day challenge".
In this case, we'll replace "knocks" with "messages".
Message 100 people per day, and see how many say "i'm interested", or some other kind of engaging phrase out of that number.
Then, out of that 100, follow up the next day with the ones that did, and see how many you can actually convert. That 100 number is important statistically. You're not going to know what you're dong wrong with just 50 messages.
Study some sales copy, make a few killer templates, and figure out what people respond to, learn to toss away the lazy prospects, because they're not motivated. Heck, I wouldn't even answer anything that doesn't sound promising, let them chase you. If people feel you have a product that you're not desperate about, they want it even more.
Whole point is, just like donnie said... it's in the numbers. I would just brute force a high number and see what sticks. Could be you, could be your target demographic, likely it's a combination of both.
Bingo... that's EXACTLY what it is. People want you to succeed for them. Some want that, and want it for FREE. It's that employee mentality... they still have that false expectation that staring at a computer for 8 hours counts as "work".
What do these people want from you? Everything, but the effort. These are the same people who are going to call you "lucky" when it does work out for you. People who are determined to fail will do so, no matter how much you explain the pitfalls.
Hi Tech
thanks for responding. From joining WA I hope you see the potential affiliate marketing has. I see it all the time:
" I hate my job"
"I need to be my won boss"
"I need to work for myself"
So I give them the blueprint ( a link to WA). Learn, Read, figure it out.
I mean do you want me to feed you too? Lol
You know what I mean.. thanks for responding.
Oh yeah bro you know how it is its the age-old sales adage.In kirby we called those kinds of people "3 free commissions". They usually only stuck around long enough to beg their family to buy a machine and then they ALWAYS crapped out when mommy wasn't telling them how good they are at their pitch.
You hit the nail right on the head. They want the fame and fortune by are not willing to put anything into it. Even if someone paid the premium for them and build the website for them and wrote 200 articles on it for them...
... they will still not put any work into it.
The majority are like that and the younger they are the more you will get.
At least you are getting some to check it out which is a start. Eventually you will find a good one.

I don't disagree, Bruce! Everyone wants something for nothing these days!
