PeerFly - iPad/iPhone offer

I actually used that exact one but I used the youtube method. I feel with offers that are less then ten dollars I do not try offline. I feel the youtube worked for me because there was a quick link underneath and it was real easy for the customer to fill out the form.
With offline they have to remember or take it home. There is too much time between seeing the ad and converting.

If it was something like weight loss that someone would thinking about constantly, the conversions would be higher.

I am not familiar with the WSO you mentioned, but I tend to agree about the offline marketing vs payout. What kind of costs are you seeing between creating the flyers and paying your outsourced people, etc? Ultimately, if you look at the payout of $1.40, you don't have a lot of room. I'm not saying it can't be done, far from it. I'm just thinking about what you have to work with.

Scrubbing could definitely become a problem. Unfortunately a lot of the free iPad type offers have been hit a lot, and as such they've had their share of junk traffic and traffic in general. I guess maybe if you are hitting offline users, the chance of them already submitting is lower, but in any case I'd rotate the offer. You can find a number of free iPad offers across networks. Target your add to the iPad part, and then rotate the offer on the back end if possible.

I've had a little success with the free iPad offers using article marketing and such. Not nearly what people were getting when these offers first hit back in the beginning of the year though.

I hope this helps.

There are others here that definitely know more than I do, but ultimately there are a few issues based on my understanding. First off, these submits should convert on the initial 1-2 line submit as they state. So if a user puts their e-mail address in, you should get a conversion. However, over time, as these are promoted like crazy, they get a ton of data. As you can see by the offer, for the company to make any money, they need the traffic to go through and complete x numer of silver offers, x number of gold offers, etc.

Often people will put their e-mail in and then quit somewhere between that point and actually completing all the requirements. As such, very few leads become conversions for the advertiser. This is why the payouts are typically low (1-3 dollar range). I've tested offers I was promoting by going clear through the personal info submit page and other offer pages and not gotten credit. So I'm not sure if that is scrubbing or flat out shaving.

But ultimately leads can be scrubbed if they already have the e-mail address in their system, etc. Basically if the traffic you are sending is not really converting for them, they will compare this with info they have in the system, and continue to do this and look further back into their history of collected leads. If the info you are collecting matches anything they have, they may scrub your lead, not give you credit for it.

This is my understanding, and my be a bit off base, FWIW.

55 clicks and no conversions is not unusual, depending on the offer. Like you, I would expect the conversion rate to be somewhat high due to the fact that the people are making the effort to visit the site. However, these college students may be more savvy than to expect a free iPad for their email.

I doubt that scrubbing is the issue here. It's possible that a conversion doesn't take place until a visitor scrolls through at least a couple of the offers (most networks will list this info). I've tested certain zip submits that had terrible conversion rates - I didn't attribute it to scrubbing, but just poor performance.

Fortunately, you can simply change the offer. You will probably lose money if this is your first attempt at this, but maybe you'll learn something that will help you refine the process. I personally would not promote zip submits via flyers unless I encountered some super cheap distribution system.

The iPad iPhone offers work well with online methods such as youtube since the target audience is more technical and technology-savy. They would want to complete the offer.
Scrubbing is not the issue.
