Five Tips for Selling on PayLoadz

One of the best and easiest ways to increase your sales and spread the reach of your product is to sell your product online. An even better way to achieve this goal is to sell digital goods, and that’s where PayLoadz comes in. PayLoadz can help you build your online business, increase your profits, boost your sales, and strengthen your bottom line.

The sale of digital items can be extremely profitable. There is no inventory to store, no postage costs, and very little overhead. This means you can make a lot of money without spending a significant amount. However, it does not happen overnight. Using PayLoadz is definitely a way to help boost your online business, and we thought we’d offer up some useful tips to help you make the most of our services.

1 – Use the PayLoadz Store

Always remember that the more venues in which you offer your product the more sales you will have. So, in addition to eBay, your own website, affiliates, and other online auction venues, the PayLoadz Store is a viable option. Our store allows for customers to search for, find your digital goods, and check out all in a few simple steps.

2 – Take Advantage of the PayLoadz Affiliate Program

Everyone could use a little bonus. Think of our affiliate program as a bonus system. When you join the program you can earn a little extra cash by promoting other PayLoadz members’ products while they do the same for you. Remember, PayLoadz Affiliate members will also promote your products for a conversion fee. It works out great for each party involved.

3 – Offer Sample Downloads

Since all of the products we offer on PayLoadz are digital items, it is usually pretty easy for merchants to offer samples of the products they offer for download. A sample will allow potential customers to test out your product and familiarize themselves with it. If they like it, they will be more likely to make the purchase. PayLoadz allows sample of video and audio files to be created for the buyer to view.

4 – Allow Subscriptions

Many times, virtual goods can be upgraded. If your digital products are the types that are frequently updated with improvements, you may want to offer customers the option for a subscription. This will allow them to purchase upgrades, tie-ins, and expansion packs quickly and easily. It can save customers money and keep them loyal to you.

5 – Use PayLoadz GoLinks

PayLoadz GoLinks are ideal for merchants that don’t actually have their own website but can be used by those that do as well. PayLoadz GoLinks are simple pieces of HTML code that you can place on almost any location online that when clicked will direct the visitor to the PayLoadz page for your product. These can be placed in emails, forum signatures, chat rooms, and just about anywhere else you can place a link!

6 - Offer Discounts

You can offer discounts on products using PayLoadz. We provide several types of discount options such as Discount Code Flat Fee, Number of Items Flat Fee Discount, Number of Items Percentage Discount etc.

7 - Use Featured Listing

Featured Listings for your products provide more exposure for your products in PayLoadz store. As for performance, Featured products outsell the normal ones by three times providing great value for your investment in Featured Listings.

Offering Subscription Downloads

As you become more and more familiar with all the great features of the PayLoadz system, you’ll find that offering subscription downloads may suit your product scheme quite well. Remember, the more options you have to offer to potential buyers the more likely they are to end up purchasing your product. Subscription downloads are an excellent example of how to offer this kind of choice variety to your customers.

With a subscription download, your buyers are able to “test” out your product for a trial period, which is usually a great way to lock down customers. Buyers often feel a lot more comfortable when they can try something out for a period of time to make sure it suits their needs. The subscription system through PayLoadz is a great way to achieve this.

The subscription system is used in conjunction with PayPal, which is a payment method growing exponentially in popularity. PayPal offers a subscription payment option which allows you to set a trial period, introductory rates, regular rates, and special offers. It is quite a versatile option for your buyers. Just remember, if you want to offer subscription downloads you’ll need to use the PayLoadz GoLink code format on any of your sales pages.

The PayLoadz GoLink code is easily obtained directly from our system via the Selling tab in your account. You’ll need to access this after you’ve created the products you want to sell through PayLoadz. Once you’ve gone into the Selling tab you’ll find the GoLink code in the Details section of the Product Summary. This option is available for any and all products you have listed with us.

Since subscription downloads are optional the feature will be included in the section for any optional features we have available. Through our system you will be redirected to the form to set up your subscription profile which can be unique to each of your products.

When you complete this process the PayLoadz system will generate a button code for your website which can be easily pasted into your site’s existing code. This button will allow your customers to opt for a subscription or trial period. You can also change the details of your subscriptions at any time.

It is important to understand that the GoLink code generated by the PayLoadz system and placed on your site will automatically redirect to PayPal. This allows buyers to easily and quickly set up their first payment through their PayPal account and get started right away. This works great because your PayPal account is also credited immediately during this process. Once the subscription is paid for, a download can be emailed to the buyer almost instantly. However, you will need to send any subscription downloads manually, though this is easily done through our “Send a Download” option in your account.
