Written by Dan B. Cauthron


Continued from page 1

Forrepparttar sake of this example, consider that delivery costs are nil. Therefore, $34.50 divided by 100 clicks = $0.345 as an absolute maximum bid per click. There are only three ways to increaserepparttar 119615 bid above $0.345 while maintainingrepparttar 119616 integrity ofrepparttar 119617 campaign:

- raiserepparttar 119618 product price above $69 - increaserepparttar 119619 CSR above 1% - accept a lower profit margin per sale

5. - Failure to Track Results and Managerepparttar 119620 Campaign

Oncerepparttar 119621 advertising campaign is set in motion, results should be tracked and analyzed on a daily basis. Many pay-per-click search engines now provide in-depth analysis and reporting tools that greatly simplify this process. In addition, specialized pay-per-click tracking software is widely available, and inrepparttar 119622 absence of a workable alternative, will prove to be a wise investment.

However, based on this writer's own experience, no two selling days are alike, even onrepparttar 119623 Internet. We suggest that no fundamental changes be made torepparttar 119624 campaign until at least five-hundred click-throughs have been gathered, or untilrepparttar 119625 campaign has been live for several days.

Those suggestions are, of course, only rules of thumb. Any campaign found to be creating a cash hemorrhage should be discontinued immediately and thoroughly reevaluated.

6. - Failure to Enable Follow-up Marketing

An inexperienced pay-per-click advertiser might expect to begin turning a profit immediately afterrepparttar 119626 ad goes live online. However sweet a dream that may be, it is often notrepparttar 119627 case.

Without follow-up capability,repparttar 119628 profit potential of any pay-per-click campaign is severely reduced. A majority of prospects will not buy on their first visit, and may not return to buy later. As a result,repparttar 119629 entire campaign may register a net loss onrepparttar 119630 initial run.

However, even a money-losing initial campaign can be turned into a winner over time, ifrepparttar 119631 campaign is focused not only toward making immediate sales, but also toward producing a mailing list of interested prospects for later follow-up.

The mechanics ofrepparttar 119632 follow-up tactic are beyondrepparttar 119633 scope of this writing.
