Hello everyone,

You must all be aware that Clickbank has been added as an income stream in PIPS replacing Empowerism this month. I have gone through the revised sales page of PIPS too.

But am not sure how is Clickbank going to serve as an income stream by promoting my PIPS url?

Does Clickbank have any multitier affiliate program?
If not, how am I benifited if someone joins Clickbank through my PIPS link?

Like to know your views.

Thanks,
Aviroop

Aviroop,

That question should be sent to the Clickbank support team. I'm pretty sure they can and will be most happy to respond.

Over the past 5 years since I joined PIPS, Stone has continually looked for programs and services that enhance PIPS to allow his members to make more money in a shorter period of time just by promoting their PIPS site url.

Your primary job is to DRIVE RELEVANT TRAFFIC to your site! Your site does the rest.

With that said:

I believe that Clickbank's inclusion is not so much to get people to sign up for the program for a monthly residual income as it is a program that allows you to promote hundreds of high quality affordable digital products at a time.

The majority of your visitors might not be interested any of the affiliate programs you are promoting through PIPS, but, they may well be interested in some of the products you are offering through Clickbank.

If you think about it, EVERY product you promote through Clickbank is an affiliate product for you. In PIPS you have the CORE programs that many can signup free and then theirs also the paid version of the CORE programs.

In PIPS, SFI is one of the main programs you promote. If someone on your site signs up for free to SFI, you get NO COMMISSIONS until or IF they decide to signup for the AE program. All your affiliate can make from SFI is a percentage of his INDIVIDUAL SALES. If someone signs up to his SFI link, and becomes an AE or higher, he gets NO COMMISSIONS even though he brought that person into SFI because he isn't a PAID MEMBER.

Clickbank is also a Free to join program. The only commissions you will make are a for your individual sales of Clickbank's massive digital product line.

With a 50%-75% per sale commission, that's a hard payout to ignore.

You can write product reviews and place a link to the product you are reviewing to boost your sales in the review. Clickbank also offers ads that "appear" to be Adsense ads. You can place these ads in your header like a banner ad, or in your blog and webpage sidebars.

Clickbank can make you as much money per sale or more than any of your paid affiliate programs - without you having to pay a monthly fee to promote the products. Therefore, it's pure profit.

If you are paying 29.95 a month to promote a product and you get zero paid signups for 6 months, you have personally PAID almost 180 out of your own pocket to promote a product or program that returned zero dollars profit. End results - minus 180 dollars.

If you put Clickbank ads on your website/blog and make a sale of one product for 29.95 during that same period and it has a 75% commission payout, you just made approximately 20 dollars.

Hmmm... 6 months of program A - lost 180 dollars

6 months Clickbank - 20 dollars profit.

The choice is pretty obvious to me.

Give it a try. IT'S FREE and it works!

I can add a ClickBank product to your website for you if you contact the Helpdesk (my signature). (please include your domain name, PIPS ID and hosting account username and password).

Right now the new members are getting ads for one of Ewen Chia's program which is through ClickBank.

You can add any ClickBank product to your site and as many as you want.

ClickBank pays huge commissions - up to 75% of the sale price of the product.

It is sometimes easier to make a one-time sale than it is to convince sometime to start a residual income business. So the idea is this is a way for newbies to make some cash while they are developing their marketing plan and building momentum with their advertising...

I believe what he's asking is if you can make money from promoting Clickbank directly, not Clickbank products.

For instance, I have my own unique Clickbank URL: Sell Products - ClickBank.

Now, if someone creates a Clickbank account after clicking on my link, do I make money from their sales, etc.?

I believe that's what he's asking here. A good question, too, as I don't even know the answer.

Aviroop,

Here's the link to Clickbank's referral program which explains how you can make money by promoting Clickbank itself:

ClickBank Referral Program

That should answer your questions.

Take Care,

Alan

Thanks Alan,

That's exactly what I was asking, that if someone joins Clickbank through my link and then make sales, will I get any commission too.

Thanks Allen, Patricia for your suggestions.

I am a Clickbank affiliate for few months now. I also promote Clickbank products through my blog too. That's not a problem.

Sure thing. Just keep in mind that you will only make money when you refer Vendors, not Affiliates. So, not sure how much good it will do in the big scheme of things, but I suppose every little bit helps.

As I said - the idea is to give people an income stream for one time sales as well as to foster new sales of PIPS by making it substantially cheaper.

As well if you check ClickBank Marketplace you will see that they also have programs for recurring income - residual income.

Marketplace - ClickBank

Do Advanced search on 'recurring'.

ClickBank is an ideal site to promote on Facebook especialy if you use your affiliate site. Facebook users are avid about their digital and electronic products. Promote your site not only to your friends but take out a small ad on Facebook. You can do this even on a limited budget because Facebook will let you set a max amount to spend per day.

Hey Bernie,

That's an excellent tip to make money from Clickbank's referral program. I never thought of using Facebook that way before. Thanks for the enlightenment.

Hey Pat,

Good point. Their recurring products are great. I'm a big fan of Clickbank products in general, and it never hurts to bring in monthly commissions on autopilot.
