I’ve Come a Long Way Baby

I love doing WSO’s (Warrior Special Offers) on the Warrior Forum - the thrill, the excitement of money to be made and people to make happy, the not sleeping at night because of the temptation to check email for PayPal notifications… it’s a rush for sure!
But I didn’t always feel so comfortable running a WSO. My insecurities made me worry that no one would buy or if they did, they’d leave mean comments about it. I was anxious I wouldn’t even make enough to cover the $20 cost of the WSO.
In fact, my best selling WSO did get a couple comments that made my heart plummet. They weren’t mean but I thought my WSO was sunk. But I took their constructive criticism and made the product better. I sold even more after that!
So I didn’t die or shrink into the wall or anything, and that gave me confidence to do more WSOs.
I remember the first time I did a WSO for my PLR articles, which was before my best seller WSO. I was an unknown and untried PLR writer who had no social proof. I thought deep down that I was a good writer, but no one else knew that and I offered that WSO kind of apologetically. That’s no way to market yourself!
I’ve come a long way baby.
I just put up my latest PLR WSO http://cli.gs/HhQWJn and I did so with lots of eagerness. I know my articles are well-written and I’m glad people will buy them and put them to good use. Sometimes people email me and show me what they’ve done with the PLR - a new blog post, a PDF, etc. That is so cool!
That’s it for this post, I’ve got to check my email to see if PayPal is calling.


My experrience is WSO is that its rewarding if you already have a name people recognize and respect.
If you are a newbie, it is hard.
But you have to start somewhere, just be patience with the first WSO, and the next 2-3 will establish you as a “name” on Internet Marketing.
In parallel with WSO, I use Digital Point Forum with great results.

You are so right, Michaela.
You start out as a nobody and have to earn the respect and recognition. Earn your WSO stripes, so to speak.
But, yeah, you have to just get started!
I’m glad you’re having success with Digital Point Forum.
Thanks,
