Shitty Sales Week?

[Jel]

mon, tues, weds were truly abysmal, way, way down on normal, though yesterday it picked back up. Has to have been billing issues, no way everyone I've spoken to who does volume would all see the same limp sales day all at the same time.

Actually, although you are joking, that is the way we should be thinking. Many years ago I used to work as a jeweller. Only about 5% of my working day was actually spent making jewellery repairs, most of the rest of the time I was working in the shop as a salesman. The company is the biggest chain of jewellers in Britain, despite the fact that they sold overpriced shit, and nearly every jeweller in the country sells better stuff at a lower price. And the way they got to be so big was on the "up sell". We did not make much money on what the customer came in to buy, but on the extras we conned them into buying. For example, if a guy came in for a necklace for his wife, we had to try to sell him a jewellery box to put it in. Then we had to try to sell them insurance in case the item was stolen. And so on.

So giving away free 3D then selling the glasses is not a bad idea (seriously - if I had a source selling 3D content, and knew a wholesaler who could sell me 3D glasses, I'd steal your idea). We should all be selling other stuff on our sites, I do. Most of my main sites sell eBooks (both adult and non adult), witchcraft supplies, and "get rich quick" schemes. And I only just started trying this a few months ago, I intend to add a lot more in the future. Remember people who jack off over porn don't do that 24/7, they got real lives too, they do other things, they have other interests, porn is only a small percentage of their budget. Why are we only trying to get a small piece of the cake???

Hasn't been good this month and last mate. Then again i have sort of left much of my adult stuff on autopilot while I push mainstream hard. Then again .. with so many sponsors thinking its ok now to just close their affiliate programs and keep the traffic/rebills etc, i am sort of waiting for the trash to declare their positions before i get back into active promotion.

Selling porn is really bad idea when you can get huge amounts of it for free, I would never buy porn even I've been selling it for 3 years now, because it is everywhere for free. I'll try to put some banners with stuff you cannot get for free just by searching on google, but I don't knows what mainstream affiliate programs lets you to advertise on adult sites.
