Archive for the ‘info product killer’ Category

Hey ya’ll! I got a TON of requests for graphics for the Info Product Killer journey we’re all making, so I asked my husband to make the CTA buttons. (Call to action). So right now, I grabbed the best-seller list of the hour for the following categories:

toys
video games
computer and pc
electronics

…and the DH (darling husband) is making the buttons that include the product, the save x amount and order here stuff. I’ll be listing them for sale soon. Any other categories you want? We may run a deal to make it with a header to match but we’re taking it slow since he doesn’t do IM – he has another job.

Another good question that came in – someone wanting to know about link cloaking for those Amazon links you create from the Info Product Killer course. I say – nah.

First of all, Amazon tracks you buying through your own link and they’ll shut your account down if you do it and they find out. So it’s not likely that they’ll steal your commission – but more importantly is the fact that most consumers don’t know a thing about affiliate commissions!

It’s highly unlikely that shoppers are going to do this. Now if you were selling an info product to Internet marketers – now THAT’S another story

I got a question that I wanted to address here in the blog so everyone else can follow along.

“Hi Tiffany,
Yes I bought IPK and I love it. I just have a question for you–if you can spare a few minutes. I know I’ll be working on IPK all day (I took a sick day off from work!) What are your thoughts on using domain names with product/company names in them? I understand the 007 model number strategy but on several occasions full product names are used such as http://www.nintendo-ds-lite-pink.co.us. I’ve always been told this is a big no-no because of potential legal issues. Can we get sued for doing this or do companies simply ask you to stop using the domain name if they don’t like it? I know you can’t give me advice but was just hoping I could get your opinion.
Thanks
Amanda”

Okay so here’s my belief – and I’m no lawyer, so if you want solid legal advice, consult an attorney. But I think for THIS purpose, we’re fine. All we’re really doing is shuttling customers to buy from the main company. If they had wanted to, they could have grabbed all sorts of domains with their products in them.

Now if you happened to scoop up FisherPrice.com before they did, I’m sure you’d have a problem. I believe the protocol is that they ask you to stop using the domain if they want you to. Then if you don’t, they could threaten legal action, etc.

But seriously, I am not worried one iota. I’ll also invite the product owner to stop by if he wants to in order to address questions here. So ask in the comments area and if I get him here, he can give you his insight too.
