Getting the Most Out of Your One-Time-Offers

One time offers are a great way to increase the money you make from each offer. You can get people to agree to purchase a product from you at a lower price that’s only available right that second, making the sale a bit easier.

This is a good way to increase the amount of your sale since they’re already in buying mode. A One Time Offer is shown right after the customer clicks the Buy button. But before they checkout, the OTO is presented for them to consider.

One time offers are a very good way to give customers more value. It’s less expensive than the product would normally be, giving your customers the opportunity to grab another great deal from you while they already have their credit card out.

Another great way to offer additional value is to trade OTOs with other marketers. For example, if you have a product that complements another marketer’s product (and vice versa), then each of you would present the other’s products to your customers as the OTOs, either sharing the revenue or giving the owner 100% in exchange for a reciprocal arrangement.

If you can’t find someone who will JV with you on an OTO offer, you can try to find someone with an affiliate program who will allow you to offer their product as an OTO at a discount. Simply tell them you expect a good volume of sales and you’d like to offer their product at a slight discount.

You probably won’t be able to land a deal like this unless you can prove you can do a large volume of business, because it would mean setting up a special sales page (or at least setting up a coupon code that could be easily tracked with your affiliate ID).

The best OTOs are usually very difficult to say no to. They offer exceptional value at a very special price. There are three separate types of one time offers. One is usually an upgrade to the first product, such as a more comprehensive version of it.

The second could be a coaching program that takes the ideas of the product and offers them in a one-on-one coaching system. And the third could be a turnkey solution that goes along with the product you sold. For example, if you’ve sold an eBook about making money with AdSense, you could offer a package of AdSense templates as the OTO.

Membership sites can also have OTOs. When someone joins your membership site, you could offer them an upgrade to a higher access level. Let’s say you have two access levels – silver and gold.

The silver level typically costs $50 per month, and the gold level costs $100 per month. You could offer anyone who joins at the silver level an upgrade to gold for only $25 more, at $75 per month – a $25 savings off of the normal gold level price. You can also offer one-on-one coaching as an OTO for membership sites. Since memberships are already a monthly fee, coaching is a perfect complement to many membership sites.

Make sure you test your one time offers just like you test any part of your sales copy or site performance. Replace the offers and see which ones convert better and then tweak that offer until it performs as well as it can.

Environmentally-oriented practices are very attractive to customers

Environment-friendly practices are very attractive to customers

Environmentally-oriented practices are very attractive to customers

As technology companies embark for the latest trends these days, there is a deep sense that making devices smaller, more efficient and less costly is not the only thing in talks at the boardroom and sales pitches.

Environmentally-oriented practices and products do well as brands compete for their piece of the market share. Take a look at Apple, for example, with their billion-dollar infrastructure, based on a product line of devices that boasts to be in the vanguard of reducing the environmental footprint as updated products roll out.

A point of attraction for the potential consumers has become not only the degree of sleekness, design-waviness and efficiency of the product, but how the company deals with the impact that such products have on the sustainability of the environment.

The value of the commitment to protecting the earth has become a sales point that increasingly makes the difference for the consumer to make purchasing choices. This point seems to extend to other non-technology companies, as well.

Many media and newspaper publication have become “green” or paperless in the last ten years. As society revolves around the internet and electronic devices as a source of information, media companies have learned to capitalize the market by saying “good-bye” to paper waste, and implementing more virtual ways to spread their communication.

As environmental issues become front and center, a well-recycled local coffee shop, for example, can also attract more customers due to cleaner recycling and waste management practices. Take Lindsay McCunn, an environmental expert who treasures working at a clean-to-the-environment coffee shop.

The newer generations want more than products. They want clean practices. And there is only one way to give them what they want: good waste management practices. There will come a day that environmentally-friendly practices will become every-day numbers in relation to financial prosperity, if they aren’t already.
