Hey bud, I'm buying accounts that are at least 1 - 2 months old. On the first page of this thread I mention exactly what I do to warm them up but it basically involves everything that you mentioned. I don't clock my URL for reasons that Freddyjames has pointed out, and I also think it looks a lot more genuine when people see a proper URL.
I think the best way to deal with geo targeted offers is to try and go for geotargeted groups. For example, the first offer I tried promoting was US based so I would search for groups using "[state] + [keyword]" or "[city] + [keyword]".
It terms of niches I may not be the best person to answer this as I'm not exactly smashing it, but I would advise going for something that you think there would be lots of Facebook groups about. For example sports, weight loss, health/fitness, cars etc.
Thanks for this man. This is what's confusing me even more - I got excited when I came across the offer as I genuinely believe in the product and know it provides value (I've used a similar one myself).
Todays stats:
25 lead ins (new ones where I tried to use BTB's advice)
50 groups
150 posts
89 hits to my website
1 hit to my offer
0 conversions
Getting slightly pissed off at this point - it seems like the more effort I'm putting in the worse my stats are getting and I don't understand why. I'm also going away this weekend so won't have the chance to work on things.
New plan:
- Keep my campaign running over the weekend on the off chance that I somehow get a conversion.
- If nothing improves by Monday (highly likely) then I'll scrap this campign and start something new. I will go twice as hard by setting up two new websites (one using the current rebill offer that I genuinely believes adds value, and another with something different that I'll find on Monday) so that I can hopefully have twice the chance of finding a winning formula.
- Get outrageously drunk this weekend.
Any advice or ideas are welcome.
