Introduction to this Affiliate Update

Welcome to the new online format for January's affiliate update. In future all our updates will be done this way. During 2007, we will be providing even more resources and this web format will make it easier to view the content and information coming your way.

=====================================================================

New Article Ready For Release - Sarcopenia

Will Brink, has completed a new article. It's ready for immediate use on your web site or ezine / newsletter. Please remember to change the links to your own affiliate links. Changing the article text in anyway is prohibited.

January's Affiliate Article : SARCOPENIA : The Undiagnosed Epidemic
Is a loss of strength, mobility, and functionality an inevitable part of aging? No, it’s not. It’s a consequence of disuse, sub optimal hormone levels, as well as other variables, such as dietary and nutrient considerations, all of which are compounded by aging.

Conversions, Conversions Conversions !

In the real estate market, realtors often say the 3 most important things about determining property prices are (1) Location, (2) Location & (3) Location. If there's an equivalent in the affiliate business, it's Conversions, Conversions Conversions!

NOTE : If your a newcomer to the affiliate business and unsure what a conversion is, here's the deal. If you send 100 clicks to our site and get 1 sale, you made a 1% conversion, if you send 100% clicks and make 2 sales you made a 2% conversion and so forth.

Will has been strict on ensuring both his e-books offer exceptional value for money. Despite the fact they are often better quality and better value than products three times their price, both the e-books deal in a large part with saving consumers from being ripped off, so in order to stay true to that ethos, the pricing is kept affordable to all.

For example 'Brink's Body Building Revealed' retails for $49 and we pay $25 commission per sale, at $49 nothing else on the market can touch it , baring in mind the bonus material and members area access customers receive.

However, the knock on effect of this pricing policy is that our conversions are phenomenally good.

This means that our affiliates find they sell so much more with our program that it easily earn's them more revenue over the month than promoting a higher commission product which can't match the conversions.

Our program converts so well In fact we have some key affiliates who have given prominence to our products over Google Adsense as our program pays them more than they can realise from Adsense.

It's all about conversions and we believe ours are unbeatable.

The image below shows a select number of affiliates who earned a minimum of a 2% conversion, and many in the 3-5% conversions with some eeking out 7%-10% conversions, ie 1 sale per 10 visitors they send.


This clearly shows what affiliates can and do achieve in conjunction with our excellent sales copy and products.

It should be stated to ensure a realistic overview, that the bulk of total sales from affiliates each month are in the 1% - 1.5% area of conversions ( 1 sale per 75 - 100 clicks) these are not not shown in the image above. The image only shows affilliates who sold more than 4 copies in a 1 month period who achieved a 2% or better conversion. (1 sale per 50 visitors)

What it does show however, is that with decent exposure of our products, using a few of the techniques we explain on our website you can achieve the very best return on your valuable traffic.

With our affiliate center you can login any time day or night and see exactly how many clicks your sending and how many sales your making. If your affiliate program doesn't offer that functionality , we suggest you put your own ad trackers on your links and make sure your programs are performing .

Our program stands up to the closest scrutiny. So if your not giving our program as much exposure as another product, then try some tests, try promoting FLR or BBR and taste the difference.

NOTE
Worth noting that a few very savvy full time professional affiliate marketers send only the highest quality targeted traffic to us via landing pages and other techniques which result in the 8%,9% and even 10% conversions you see in the image above. While we would love to say all affiliates can achieve conversion ratios of 1 sale per 10 clicks, that would be wishful thinking.

===================================================================

Updating your Web site From MBN to BBR, and DSR to FLR

If you still have old text or images on your web site promoting MBN (Muscle Building Nutrition) then please take the time to make the swap to the new images and product name BBR (Body Building Revealed), which replaced MBN.

The same issue applies for the old DSR (Diet Supplements Revealed) images and text which has been replaced with FLR (Fat Loss Revealed).

This is the first time in 6 years we have replaced product names and images, it's not something we did lightly and we apologies for any inconvenience, however the upside is we have two improved products and sales copy which is a good thing for you as well as us.

If you don't change the old information on your site , your confusing visitors and reducing sales and conversions for yourself.

Quick links for short text descriptions and images of both products.

===================================================================

Body Building Revealed Free version option + The Perfect Rep

We are now achieving as high as an 8% on conversion ratio from our "Give Away the Body Building Revealed Evaluation Version + Bonus Perfect Rep e-book" technique.

Although this technique achieves a minimum 3 % conversion, and for some affiliates as high as 8%, the reality is that visitors must enter their name and email address to receive the two e-books, so they are of course more targeted and the conversion is much better as they are added to our prospect auto responder and sold to over a period of weeks.

You should always keep your direct links to our sales copy, using the BBR e-book images or banners, this technique is great if you happen to have some spare space on your Web site, and is especially suited to left and right hand columns. It just allows you to add extra exposure but should not replace your standard linking methods.

We now also have some attractive animated images like the one shown on the right here, to help you promote this technique here. You can view linking information and more images here (opens in new window)

===================================================================

New Fat Loss Revealed Before & After Banners

We now have some new Fat Loss Revealed "Before And After" banners.

These can be linked to your pre-sell pages if you have one or directly to our sales copy page with your affiliate link.

Again we don't recommend removing any existing e-book covers but if you have a spare area on your site that you want to earn some revenue from, these have a very high clickthru rate.

For full details on how to implement these and to view other "Before and After" banners click here (opens in new window)

 

 

 

===================================================================

The old Muscle Building Nutrition /pro1 feature is being removed in 30 days

Please note that this old promotional tool found here:

http://www.musclebuildingnutrition.com/pro1/

Will be removed on the 24th February. If you still have this old tool for promoting the old "MBN" Muscle Building Nutrition, please remove it from your web page.

We are working on new video promotional tool to replace it, which will be available within the next 2-3 months.

===================================================================

New Images & New Versions of the Creatine Report & The Recipes e-book

Both the viral e-books, The Creatine Report and the Recipes E-book have been updated this month.

Both e-books now contain the new product names and have been updated visually to offer your visitors a much better experience whilst increasing the plugs for Fat Loss Revealed and Body Building Revealed to increase sales via your affiliate branded links.

We strongly suggest you download the new versions and use the affiliate re-branding software.
