Pricing Your Product

Pricing a product can be one of the toughest and most finicky components of product development. You don't want to overprice your product, but you don't want to undervalue your product. Digital products should be kept anywhere from $0-$99. The general consensus is that people can afford products that are within this price range and impulse buys typically occur within this price range.

You also don't want to keep moving your price around once you have already put in on the market. This will create unhappy customers (and affiliates). You should perform a certain level of research on your industry, what other products are selling for, and the value your consumers will receive from your product. From this you should have a pretty good idea what price your product is worth, and what you can sell it for.

Why do many product prices end in a number 7? This is because research has proven that the number 7 converts higher than the number 9. We have tested both and have noticed that the 7 does convert at a marginally higher rate than the 9, but this does vary on the industry and to what countries you are promoting to. Many marketers have a different view on which converts better, but we suggest that anything ending with 7 is a good start (i.e.: $67).

The last thing you should remember is that you do not want to price your product too low. If you price your product below its actual value, it will take away from the product. If it is worth $97, sell it for $97. If it is a product of quality, people will buy if it is priced correctly. Often times a low price will indicate that the product is of low quality and actually prevent someone from purchasing it.

Ok, so for example if my niche was goats, because that is what I'm passionate about, but I've published a children's book about them, only 1 so far, I shouldn't put the book on my website yet? I mean it's not like it's going to make me record sales yet until I learn how to promote it and have others to go with it. So should I wait to add it to my web site until I'm making money from my affiliate programs?

Really interesting article, I really enjoyed it. I'm just curious however in relation to tour comment,"Product development should not be your first step to making money online" because I feel I may have a product or two already, but have never really thought much on Affiliate marketing till last week. So in your opinion, what do you think would be the quickest and easiest way to make a few quid online, as my personal circumstances have changed recently and I'm now trying to generate income from laptop as much as possible. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

If you are selling your own product then another significant advantage of Clickbank is that they handle all of the sales tax for you regardless of the country the product is being sold into. The business model they use is that when a purchase is made it is CB that buys the product from you and then sells it directly to the original purchaser, so they act as an agent. This greatly simplifies the accounting process. From this perspective the commission they take is actually worthwhile. I do not know of any other affiliate site that currently works in this way.

Hello! I'm just starting out and I may want to take this tutorial later. Does WA have something like "favorites" where I can save training and topics that I'm interested in for later viewing? I realize I can just save to my search engine favorites, but wondered if there is something internal for such purposes. Thanks!
