Testing Warrior Offers That ARENT Special

WSO is a term that most seasoned Internet Marketers are familiar with. It stands for Warrior Special Offer and is a way for marketers to make a special offer to members of the popular (and incredibly active) Warrior Forum.

There is a nominal fee of $20 to post a WSO, which is requested if your Special Offer gets approved. You can reasonably expect to earn 10-100x your money back, depending on the nature of your offer.

Knowing how profitable a WSO can be when selling marketing/business related products, I decided to browse around the Warrior Forum and find other ways to advertise or sell through the site. That's when I found the Warrior Offers - not "warrior special offer", just offers...

This section of the Warrior Forum runs a little differently. Instead of the $20 fee upfront, there is no charge to list your product in the Warrior Offers section. It does act as an affiliate program, however, and requires that you pay Allen (the forum owner) 20% of all sales made. This 20% commission is paid once a month, or when requested. It doesnt come out of the actual sale.

Here's how it works:

You go into the Warrior Offers section and click the Add Your Warrior Offer button at the bottom left of the screen. A small screen will pop up and guide you through the process:

You dont need a web page or anything like that - but you will need to make sure your paypal address is set up in your profile on the Warrior Forum. As you move from screen to screen you will put in your product details and then upload the cover image or graphic and also the zip file. If you have special instructions you usually include on a download page, you'll want to create a text file and zip it with your product files.

It takes less than 5 minutes, and your product will automatically be listed in the Warrior Offers section. When someone orders your product, they pay through PayPal using the address you have in your profile, and they automatically get the zip file directly from the Warrior Forum.

Once you add a Warrior Offer, you will also notice that a new link appears beneath your name anytime you post to the Warrior Forum (see image to the left).

This will link directly to all of the offers that you have listed in that section. So if you upload 3 products, people will see all 3 listings when they click that link next to your username.

Not only can fellow members buy and download your products directly, but they can also leave reviews. There is a rating system that lists the Warrior Offers by ratings and popularity, which is a pretty cool feature.

Here is a screen shot that shows how your offer will appear:

Pretty cool, eh? 🙂

I decided to give this option a fair test since the WSO section is so active and profitable. So far the Warrior Offer section isnt proving the same, or at least not right off the bat. When you post a Warrior Special Offer (a WSO), the sales begin coming in almost immediately. That hasnt been the case with the Warrior Offer - or at least not yet.

I should also add that there are several unanswered questions about this newer Warrior Offer section at the Warrior Forum. They remain unanswered to date, but if you're interested or if you have questions of your own, see this thread.

There is no cost to test this out, so if you have online business or internet marketing related products, post one yourself and see how you do!

Best,
