Google AdWords 30 Day Results – What You Can Expect

Monday, May 10th, 2010

Here is a quick summary of the first 30 days activity using Google AdWords. The ads are down while we try a different method as a stand alone to further our experiment with online marketing methods. To recap this experiment for new readers:
The op-yop was a toy marketed during the 1960′s and had not been produced since. We found a considerable amount of new stock made in 1968 and decided to promote the toy again using various internet marketing methods, and then report the results here.

Following are the results of 30 days of AdWords activity
Three ads were rotated evenly during the 30 day period coming offline daily after they had spent the $5.00 a day ad budget.
Total Impressions 176,697
Total Clicks 220
Click through rate 0.12%
Average cost per click $0.42
Average cost per 1000 $0.53
Total cost $98.04
Successful keywords used were vintage toy, vintage toys, retro toys, op-yop
Total sales traceable to this activity $213.92 net after Paypal fees and shipping costs.

Sales activity did exceed the cost of procuring those sales. Improved ad copy could improve results. Since this marketing promotion is a work in progress, we will choose another method and report the results here. In addition to the actual orders we have had requests from resellers wanting to sell a reissued version of the toy. We also have been asked by two companies wanting to personalize editions of the toy for promoting their own businesses. The exposure the op-yop is receiving may make using other internet marketing methods more productive.

Google Adwords Dismal For Product Launch

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

It may be too early to determine absolutely, but the results from the Ad Words setup at Google has delivered dismal results. The last week of activity has a flat line graph showing no clicks, no percent served. There are volumes of help folders, you tube videos, and a self serving forum that provides indirect answers and a referral to their help pages running you around in a circle. One search question we asked was how to create an ad campaign using three ads, with the same keywords (a commonly recommended ad test). The result returned was referring to an A/B Test, but not how to set it up or execute one. I am intentionally NOT publishing the adwords we used, to avoid sending my readers chasing the ads and clicking on them without purchasing anything, which just runs up the google bill. The first day with one ad running, there were no clicks. The second day we received 4 clicks, Days 3 through 10 we received no clicks. Our quality score is now 7/10 also According to Google, not too bad. We have tried all the Google recommendations we can find to improve results, but nothing has worked. It appears as if our ad is parked somewhere. Google could take a lesson from us and make a process flow chart or checklist; no matter how large this check list would be, and time consuming the set-up might be, if it assured results it would be worth the effort (An Ad Words set-up checklist created by me and will be shared in the members section with subscribers.)

We are getting some site traffic, but not via google. Most from Yahoo as a result of the ezine article that was published. Many people who saw the ebay listing have also found the web site at http://www.op-yop.com. I congratulate them on finding it since the ebay listing did not contain a reference to the opyop site.
Overall, the google campaign does not seem suitable for do-it your-selfers. At this point, the only way to make google ads effective is for the op-yop name to go viral. (visit http:/www.opyop.com)
Facebook advertising is the next advertising campaign we will be investigating. Check back for our progress.

Ezine Article Chronicles Early Progress

Friday, April 9th, 2010

One of the effective and long lasting methods of getting traffic to your site is article marketing. As I had promised in my earlier blog, The Op-Yop Is Back I will do an update from time to time on the progress of the product launch. This time the update comes in the form of an article published online. One of the steps in generating traffic without paying Google for their help is submitting articles to the online article publishing sites. Part of the promotion of the op-yop, submitting an article, also happens to be a way of getting traffic back to this site. Check out my recently published article I submitted to ezinearticles.com: Do The Various Internet Marketing Techniques Really Work? It chronicles the steps I have taken so far in marketing and promoting the op-yop toy. After reading the linked article you will understand the steps taken to get to the current point in our Op-yop Launch progress. The article focuses on the “free tools” aspects of getting online. Because part of my consulting mission is to work with small businesses to establish their online identity and capture their off-line niche, online. And Free sounds real good to small business people. Hopefully, after reading several of my blog posts you will see how inter-related all the different methods of promoting are to each other and to gaining a successful foothold on line. This QuickTips blog promotes online marketing, one method is article marketing, which the linked article mentions the op-yop which links to the blog which has links to the www.op-yop.com site. Completing a full circle of links and back links takes time, but the exposure continues to grow with time. Read some of the comments received and you should notice they come from around the globe, from people who enjoy the free information. For my readers, there really is someone like you, hovering over the keyboard, awaiting the opportunity to become friends through the magic of email. One of the observations I want to pass along relates to working from home and getting rich overnight. My truth is that it hasn’t happened to me, but it can happen to you. By following the recommended steps and habitually going on line and following through, over time, traffic builds. Things start “clicking”. The money begins to come in from people who have grown to trust your advice. It is possible to build a business working from your home computer. It is simple…stick to the basics until you are well established, absorb how an overall marketing plan works, and have the discipline to follow through. Now spend some money. Seek out one of the people who have the tools you need and aren’t trying to sell you instant anything. Then invest some money in a proven, money back program. I receive email almost daily from many of the online giants. Each of them has tweaked a certain aspect of the daily routine to make a success of themselves. Their money comes from selling you their product and telling you how to do what they have done. That is how they make their money. You have to copy them and do the same thing. However, there are no guarantees. When you want the name of someone to follow and a link to their products, email me through the sign up form and I will share my favorite one with you. If you found this information helpful, please retweet it, sign up for email updates, or complete the contact form along the right hand border (or do all three).

The Op-Yop Is Back – Toy Stash Discovered

Friday, March 12th, 2010
Original Op-yop

Original 1968 Op-Yop

The original Op-yop is back! We are going to have some fun for a few weeks, maybe stretching into months. As proof that internet marketing concepts written about in this blog do work, I am going to present a product launch. In order to make the concepts easy to grasp I have chosen an actual product that can be physically touched. It has a limited market so we will be exploring niche marketing. The product is something unique, no direct competition. It is a retro item not sold in over 40 years! It was a fad in 1968. This would put it smack in the middle of the hippie era. It comes in Day Glo colors that light up under a black light. It makes a unique sound. I uncovered a warehouse stash of these things, left over from the original production. I think I have enough stock from the original runs to sell a worthwhile amount. We will try to cover all the marketing bases until the stock runs out.
We will do a series of press releases, write a few articles and post to the article marketing sites. I’ll go through (SEO) Optimizing the keywords for Search Engines. I’ll do a screen capture of the Google search results before and after the campaign, to show our ranking on the results. We will do some quick research into niche forums and other blogs. We will set up PayPal to receive payments. We’ll also populate the social media sites like twitter, Facebook, youtube and others like them. I may delve into advertising of different types as examples for the blog. I may use ebay for traffic. I will make every attempt to post progress and write about the methods used, time allowing. If you want to follow along, check back to see our progress. Web site is up and running as of right now. You can visit http://www.op-yop.com or http://www.opyop.com and search twitter for opyop tweets.

How To Use Click Bank To Start An Online Business

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

If you enjoy surfing the web and have been considering setting up your own business, you really should visit http://www.clickbank.com/. It is a site that allows you to sign up as an affiliate internet marketer, promote ready to deliver information products, and then receive a commission for every sale made via links from your own website promotions.

Without a doubt, selling someone else’s product, using their supplied sales pages and the Clickbank links is one of the quickest ways for you to become an online seller without having to do all the back end work of billing, collection and commission payment.

It is also a website that you can literally spend day after day reading the sales pitches and visiting the sites of the offered products. If you do this diligently you will eventually get used to the methodology used to create these offers. What you learn can then be used to market your own products. This is the real benefit of membership. I call it Clickbank College. More information follows below……

Signing up on Clickbank is easy. Go to the url address listed above and click on the AFFILIATES radio button on the landing page. After doing some reading and educating yourself about the benefits of Affiliate Marketing, take action…sign up! Then start your free internet marketing education and have some fun doing so.

You’ll notice some rankings called “gravity values” applied to each of the offers. This really means how successful the offer has been in the marketplace. If you sell a high gravity number, you’ll have more competition, but you’ll be selling a somewhat known or familiar product. If you promote a lower gravity value number, it may be a harder sell, but there will be less competition. This is an over simplification, but regardless of what gravity you choose, the successful sale will only happen based on how much interested traffic you drive to your site. Key is to promote and promote and promote.

The “Clickbank College” education part comes from reading the many sales pages and dissecting it into the marketing tools used to arrive at the result you are viewing and then following the links all the way through the sale process to see how everything is constructed to eventually make a sale.

Let me take you on a short walk through…(of course, you can tour without becoming a member)

At the Clickbank home page, visit the marketplace link at the top.

For this tour I chose the green products category, with the results sorted by popularity, high to low. The top item returned pays a 75% commission and clicking on the “red highlighted type” link you end up at the site http://www.magniwork.com/?hop=0.

Pay close attention to what you see and read, because there is great deal of magnificent work sitting in front of you. Lot’s of hours went into developing what you are reading. You’re on the landing page for the offer: this is the sales pitch page. It starts with a headline, the sales copy that follows is loaded with key words and colors designed to spur sales. It includes a video, and there are numerous testimonials to create credibility. It divulges secrets, it anticipates and handles objections, it gives you a risk free money back guarantee that may eliminate purchasers remorse. And best of all it delivers immediate gratification by providing a download link for receiving the product immediately upon payment. To make the transaction even more risk free, they offer PayPal as a payment method. Because of the way PayPal works, no one ever sees your credit card number making the sale even more secure.

Take Action:

Clickbank can be a first step towards making money online working from home by using Affiliate Marketing.

How To Use The Internet To Turn Around Detroit’s Economy

Monday, August 10th, 2009

One thing for certain, to turn around Michigan’s economy, something has to change and quickly.

Facts from the Bureau of Labor Statistics For The Month of June:

  • Unemployment in Michigan, specifically in Metro-Detroit surpassed 17% in June, 2009.

  • Unemployment rates were higher in June than a year ago in all 372 US Metropolitan areas.
  • For the sixth consecutive month unemployment rates increased.

  • Michigan claims two of the most populous metro areas in the country that registered the highest unemployment rates

  • Warren, Farmington Hills and Troy registered one the highest jobless rates of 16.2%

Change is constant in Detroit’s auto business; so accepting change is not the problem. The problem is what to change to. It is about having choices. Don’t waste time waiting for the old job market to come back. Auto jobs are not coming back to Michigan. Getting people working again will only happen by choosing a new direction. Living within the Metro-Detroit area are some of the most talented people on the planet and they have what it takes to change this economy. Their training in the auto industry is so complex that every one understands the discipline needed to begin with a concept and end with a salable product. This training and discipline is easily transferable.

Certainly using the internet as a tool holds immediate promise. Now more than ever, what and who you know is essential to your success. Working from your home computer and networking on the internet is the easiest way to meet contacts with similar interests. Marketing yourself online expands job possibilities.

What you can do…

Join forums and groups, and get involved in as many networks as you can manage. Learn the basics of how money is being made on the internet. Copy those methods. Search the web for techniques, tips , tools and discover the systems already available. Apply automotive techniques to assembling a virtual business that creates jobs. There are “how to” guides any auto worker interested in being retrained can download. The step by step nature of systems for making money online will be very familiar to anyone involved in automotive. There is no degree required to start, most of what works is not taught in a university. The only requirement is serious application of the discipline and work ethic learned making an automobile.

Because the jobs are not coming back to Detroit or Michigan, starting an online business or taking advantage of other online opportunities are immediate choices for retraining unemployed workers.

Thanks!
