Finding Profitable Products to Promote

Listen, I’ve promoted hundreds of launches over the years, and I’ll tell you straight – picking the right products to promote is absolutely crucial. Today, I’m going to show you exactly how I evaluate launches to find the real winners.

To gain a deeper understanding of the Product Launch Cycle, explore this comprehensive guide that breaks down each stage of a successful launch.

Analyzing the Product Funnel

The first thing I look at is the funnel structure. Here’s what makes a good funnel:

  • Front-end price point ($17-37 range)
  • Strong upsells that make sense
  • Good commission structure (50-100%)
  • Value that increases through the funnel

Red Flags to Watch For

  • Overpriced front end products
  • Disconnected upsells
  • Low commission rates
  • Unrealistic income claims

Ensure your next campaign is a hit by following these essential steps for Pre-Launch Preparation to set the foundation for your success.

Evaluating the Vendor

The product creator’s track record is crucial. Here’s what I look for:

Positive Indicators

  • Consistent product quality
  • Strong support system
  • Good reputation in the marketplace
  • History of successful launches

Where to Research Vendors

  • JVZoo marketplace history
  • WarriorPlus metrics
  • Previous launch statistics
  • Community feedback
