So after about a year later I finally launched the second fire-sale involving PLR videos package. The number of video series remain the same at eight, however there were less JV partners and affiliates who promoted this event. I sure do know that the date clashed with other fire-sales from other marketers as well, therefore many affiliates had to choose.
This was my 2nd attempt in running a fire-sale involving video series. As planned earlier, I used it on the domain name: private-label-rights-videos.com
Nature of The Fire-Sale:
This time I started the fire-sale with a price tag of $97 instead of $47 during the first firesale. I did something interesting to test out the response – a dime sale. It simply means the price increases every second instead of each pre-determined amount of days.
With this test, I got 2 findings:
- There is a group of people who is against this type of dime-sale practice. They expressed their dissapointment to me regarding this. They said that if not because of this pricing model, they would have bought the package. Whether or not they’re speaking the truth, I have no idea. For me as a marketer, I would like to test things out instead of trying to please everyone.
- Another group saw the price increase as one of the main reasons to quickly take action and buy. This group represents the majority of my customers.
Details of promotion:
Package Price: $97 to $197, increasing every second ($297 after the fire-sale ended)
“One-Time Offer Gold” Package Price: $147
“One-Time Offer Silver” Package Price: $77

Final Results

Total OTO Gold sales: $2,940
Total OTO Silver sales: $308
Total sales: $22,441
Sales from affiliates: $9,514
Net Profit: $9,679.42
My Comments
Although the total sales is higher than the 1st firesale, the net profit that I gained was much lower. This was due to the higher incentives that I gave to my affiliates & JV partners.
Despite the lower number of affiliates promoting this event, one super affiliate (whom I’m not supposed to reveal due to privacy request) managed to the get the majority of the affiliate sales. His efforts did ‘cover’ the loss of other affiliates. This also shows how important a super affiliate is to a marketer’s success. It really makes a HUGE impact in the overall sales.
I guess I need to learn so much on how to attract more super affiliates to promote my products. 
You should too!!
To Your Success!
