You may have read the product review for a new video product that I was lucky enough to get a peek at.
Read The Review if you missed it.
I was talking to the developer and he said that his WSO was going ok, but he wishes he had a mailing list.
I have done some WSO’s before and some went very very well, others didn’t.
Software sells well, and so do reports that promise “get rich now with no work” seem to do best.
One of the other problems with a WSO is the bandwagon effect.
I bought 3 or 4 reports on site flipping for a project I am working on and they got gradually worse and worse as people just started copying the earlier reports.
If you release some new software as a WSO, you can almost guarantee that someone will be releasing a similar version at half the price within a week or two.
That is business I know and no one has any right to expect to be the only person selling anything.
Anyway Chris ( the developer of Viral Video Player )was talking to me about whether it is better to have your own list than to rely on a new WSO every time you release something.
Of course it is a good idea to have a list but that also sounds a much easier thing to do than it seems to be in real life.. more on that in the next post I think.

If you give few real first movers bonus, you’ll sell out WSO fast… I’ve sold few WSO and couple of them were selling like hot cakes and few of them not even single sales… ah…. another thing about WSO is that it can help you build a customer list fast. If you sold 3-4 products with decent promotion, you can easily have 500 or so customers in your list.
