Daniel Scocco here, and this is the Daily Blog Tips newsletter.
Last week I achieved an important milestone with my training program,
and I wanted to share the background story with you.
-------
When I decided to make the Online Profits course free back in June
I was not sure how it would work out. My goal was to make the
course accessible to as many people as possible, while still making
some money from it, and I found an interesting model for that.
The course itself became free, but in order to join people would
need to sign-up for a hosting plan with my partner (HostGator). The
cost of doing that is $8.95 per month, and there is a requirement
of keeping the hosting plan active for at least 3 months. So for
$30 people would be able to get a lifetime member account to my
course, which last sold for around $400.
It should be a win-win-win situation. Members win because they
would get access to the training program almost for free. My
hosting partner wins because it would get new clients (many
probably staying for the long term), and I win because I would
still make some money from the referral commissions.
The plan was solid, but it could backfire. I knew the quality of my
course was top notch and comparable to any other online course, but
making it virtually free could affect people's perception
negatively.
Luckily this didn't happen, and last week we crossed the milestone
of 500 members (and that is counting only the members who joined
after I made the program free in June). This is equivalent to
almost 4 new sign-ups per day, which is way above by initial
expectations.
The feedback has been great too, and I am starting to see people
recommend the program spontaneously around the web (i.e., not
because they are affiliates and want to earn some money, but
because they really believe it can help other people).
If you are one of the 500 members, thanks for joining! If you are
not, well, you are missing some good stuff! You can check the
details and join on the Online Profits homepage. Here is the link:
I'll talk to you next week,
