5 Bucks a Day

I’ve been using the Instant Dime Sale Creator script for quite a while, but it drew my attention recently to the fact that I haven’t been giving it the attention it deserved.

It jogged my memory a couple weeks ago when it stopped working properly. It was making the sales, but I noticed that the prices weren’t incrementing like they should have been. So, I started digging into the code, and doing some testing. It’s always frustrating when things are working all along and suddenly stop when you’ve done nothing.

After several hours, I isolated the time when the script stopped working, and that it had to do with a particular PHP command that was failing. It seemed to coincide with the time that my host upgraded to PHP version 5, so evidently there was some incompatibility.

So it was a quick fix after that. And since it was fresh in my mind, I decided to load a new product into it and see what would happen.

My latest product was Jason Fladlien’s Instant Expert course. It really is a terrific and motivational course that can turn anyone into an expert on whatever they set their mind to, and like most of my dime sales, whenever the license allows, I set the starting price low ($4.95 in this case for a course worth easily $47 to $97).

In less than a week, with very little promotion to a small list, I racked up over 100 sales, starting at $4.95 and increasing by .10 after each sale. Not bad.

Many of the sales were made by affiliates that were promoting the course, and I expect that it will continue for a while, it’s something that would help anyone at all, not just Internet marketers.

That success prompted me to gather all my other dime sale items, and start listing them on one page so that others can find them more easily, that page is here: ==> Dime Sales

Hopefully better organization will help affiliates keep better track of what they can promote, and help customers find the available items more easily. We pay out normally 60% commissions on referrals, but there may be occasion when the payout is less, or more.

If you’d like to see what we have available, or see what we have, there’s a link in the right column to our dime sales under the Our Links heading.

As you may have noticed if you’ve been reading a while, sometimes it doesn’t take much to get me excited. Ever since the ah-ha moment when my 5 bucks a day strategy was conceived, each time I find something that can help possibly conceive another success story of that magnitude gets me all worked up.

The latest is the Instant Dime Sale Creator product that I picked up a couple weeks ago. What a dime sale is, in Internet marketing terms, is that the seller of a product determines the absolute lowest rock bottom price he’s willing to sell his product for, and sets up a sales page at that price.

He then increases the price (either manually or using an automated script) at regular intervals, until at some point the price becomes higher than most people are willing to pay. So in the beginning customers are getting an absolutely unbelievable bargain, after a while they’re getting a good deal, then a fair price, and then it’s overpriced.

A good dime sale script will give you the ability to set a maximum price, so that after a certain number of sales, the price stays the same and doesn’t discourage those that are willing to pay a fair price, while still giving bargains to early buyers.

Instant Dime Sale Creator (IDSC) has the typical dime sale features (price increment with each sale, and maximum price), plus much more. The extra features include easy PayPal payment button creation, the ability to have a .00 price increment (more on the beauty of that later), built in one time offer ability, built in affiliate program (you can pay your affiliates anywhere from 1 to 100% of the sales amount), statistics for your products and affiliate performance, and download protection (so that your product is protected from those that want to use your product without paying for it). And more.

OK, this is a dime sale script, so why would you want to not increase the price after every sale? Well, the thing is, IDSC makes it so easy to set up a sales page with a PayPal payment button, you’ll get spoiled, and want to use it on products where you just want to charge a specific price. So you can do that by having the initial price be what you want, and not increase it.

The other really huge thing about this script is that it allows you to set up as many dime sale campaigns as you want. It keeps track of them in a database. Other scripts make you install the software again each time you want to set up a new product. Not IDSC. The admin panel is ridiculously easy to use to add a new campaign.

When it comes down to it, the features of this dime sale script that are the most unique and valuable are that it includes a built in affiliate program, it allows you to set up unlimited campaigns, it makes it easy to have one time offers, and it protects your downloads.

And that’s where my “pretty well baked idea” comes in. I love ideas. I’m always brainstorming. I get tons and tons of half baked ideas, some of which I fall in love with for a couple days and then realize it’s not feasible or too much work. Some I carry through to completion or outsource, and some I just have no time for.

My idea is that I have tons of great products that I’ve purchased in the last year to give to Earn1KaDay.com members. I own resell rights to those products, and can sell them if I want to, but mostly I purchased them so that I could give them to members for free. There are thousands of dollars worth of downloads waiting for new members there and I’m adding to that every week.

Some of those great reports and software products allow my members to resell them on their own, but many of the best of the best don’t. So here’s my plan.

I’m going to set up a special site, or section of a site, for “dime sale bargains”. I’ll load it up with all the stuff that I’ve been accumulating. Now mind you, this isn’t junk that you see on eBay for .99, these are fresh reports and often very valuable products. Each customer will automatically be offered an opportunity to be an affiliate for my site. And each customer will be able to get on an email list for notification every time I add something new.

That way, three things happen. One, customers will get great bargains. Two, prior customers will be first in line to get the next great bargain before the price rises. Three, customers will have the ability to promote anything on the site and get commissions.

Right now, the only thing available is the dime sale script itself, at a great price. It will give you the ability to set up your own dime sales, your own affiliate program, your own one time offers, and do something similar to what I’m doing with your own products.

The price rises with every sale, so if you put it off, you’ll pay more later. This is a great product, you’ll love it and make money with it, I assure you.
