Warrior Special Offers – Worth it or Worthless?

The Warrior Special Offer (WSO) has been around for a while now, but it has not had the huge exposure it has lately until just recently due to the ability for affiliates to promote. Some say there are a ton of rehashed products, some say it’s the best place on the internet to find top quality products at cut down prices. What do I say? I will get to that in a minute but first let’s take a little look inside the WSO and it’s history, the earnings and how you get started with your own.

There has been a big buzz around Warrior Special Offers over the past few months, it seems like everyone is grabbing a piece of the action. I have personally been involved in two WSO’s up to now. The first was a product upsell which I spoke about in an earlier post. The second was Multi Profit Websites which is another product which I own 1/3 of with Dave Nicholson and John Thiornhill. Both products have done very well in the WSO market place. John Thornhill has also advertised his own WSO’s recently and accumulated over $20,000 so far and stands to make $100,000 from these easy to setup ventures (not bad).

Last week alone I personally earned over $2000 from one WSO in only a few days:

Earnings for 1 Week of WSO

A little History lesson

The WSO originates from the Warrior Forum. The Warrior forum is an internet marketing forum which has been around since 1997 well before I started online in 2005. It’s the place to be for some marketers and although you can get lost in the marketing chit chat, debates and arguments, it still remains the go to place to find reviews, info and WSO bargains. If you don’t get lost in the debates, the Warrior forum can be a great tool to help you within your business.

The WSO

A WSO costs $40 to advertise a WSO thread on the warrior forum. You can also bump your WSO back to the top of page 1 again once it drops off page 2. Each time you bump a WSO, it will cost you a further $40. Obviously if your WSO is dong well you should bump it for more exposure. This will greatly increase your chances of earning more over the advertising period that you have the WSO running.

You can read the rest of the rules here if you wish

For me WSO’s have really made an impact over the last few weeks. And will continue to do so over the next few months. However WSO’s continue to grow in popularity. Does this mean the advertising time spent on page 1 (prime advertising) will be short lived in the future and you will spend more money bumping than profiting? Right now I don’t think so, it’s a welcome addition for advertising as well as similar market places such as Clickbank, maybe even more so if your business angle is internet marketing.

WSO Pro

WSO Pro is a great tool for helping to manage your WSO sales. It’s easily setup to manage sales, update quantities and prices, and have them automatically delivered to your buyers.

The extract below is taken from the WSO Pro website which can be viewed here

Main features include:

• Have your WSOs delivered automatically
• Place a “Buy Now” button directly in your WSO
• Automatically change the price of your WSO based on # of sales
• Auto-updating Buy Now button when price changes
• Limit the quantity available to purchase.
• See statistics on views, clicks, sales, refunds and more
• Protect your products with automatic link protection
• Track downloads and ip addresses to make sure your product is not being shared
• Automatic “BUMP” notification when your WSO gets to page 3
• 1-Click BUMPing
• See Paypal transaction details with just 1 click
• Advanced users: Forward Paypal IPN data to your own server
• Auto-responder integration – automatically signup buyers to your autoresponder, including: Aweber, GetResponse, InfusionSoft, and others…
• JV with WarriorPlus – Allow WarriorPlus to promote your WSO for a commission. Make more sales!
• Sell License / Activation Codes – Have software or membership site that requires an activation or license code? Automatically get this information to your buyers.
• Download Blocking – Block any sale from being downloaded in case you detect fraud or sharing of links.
• Blacklisting – Finding users buying your stuff and then refunding or sharing? Stop them cold with the Blacklisting feature.
• WSO of the Day – Want your WSO featured as the “WSO of the Day” for massive exposure and sales?
• Sell subscriptions / memberships – Sell access to your membership site and other subscription-based items quickly and easily
• NEW! Affiliate Program – Allow other Warriors to sign-up and promote your WSO Pro offers. Instant affiliate payout, variable commissions, and more!

The above affiliate program is an essential tool for creating more revenue from promotions. This is one of the main reasons for the massive take off of the recent WSO’s.  Also by using WSO Pro your WSO is added to the ‘WSO of the day’ mailing list, which again is another great way to make sales and generate more revenue.

The cost is $19 available from the warrior forum.

Worth it or Worthless?

Just like I mentioned above, I think the WSO is a welcome edition to any marketing business. If you are in the internet marketing niche then selling your products for a little less as a WSO will still make profit but also a great reputation within the marketing community.

Advertising popularity maybe an issue in the future if popularity continues to grow the way it is. But for now it’s looking good especially with the promotional aspects now that affiliates can get onboard and promote cheap quality products for big returns. This is ultimately the reason for anyone to grab their own WSO opportunity sooner rather than later.

What next?

My good friend John Thornhill has infact just created a huge product about WSO’s. In fact its an entire training course. I do urge you to check it out if WSO’s are for you (which they should be). Check it out HERE

I hope you enjoyed today’s post. I would love to hear your thoughts or experiences with WSO’s.
