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

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