Sharky - Cross Sales and Up-Selling The Right Way - GoFuckYourself.com

Barefootsies · 01-27-2009, 08:27 AM

Quote:

The one and only "Sharky" from PimpMansion gets on the mic this week to talk to us about cross-sales and up-sales. Why is Mastercard all in a tizzy over cross-sales? What's the difference between cross-sales and up-selling? The appropriate ways to increase your revenue while not pissing off your customers. Creating up-sell offers which actually work. And if you're an affiliate, how to find sponsors which don't harm the health of the adult industry with their cross-selling funny business.

In the news: COPA is finally struck dead! Kentucky's governor is taken to task for trying to steal domain names. And Germany seconds the call for an adult industry bail-out.

The real question, troll, is do YOU KNOW WHO SHARKY IS? Or do you just see him posting here and feel you know him because of that.

I remember listening to Sharky way back in the days, cant even remember the name of the show. Help me out here, please, what was it called?

Everyone knows Sharky. Used to be very active in the adult webmaster community.

OK so...

Why am I broke again? I mean if people in this business do not understand what good cross sales are and bad cross sales are and what an upsell is these are some pretty fucking sad days.

How to find Programs that do not hurt the industry? Seriously?

Why am I so fucking broke?
Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

Anyways just muttering to myself

Grats Sharky I am sure what ya got to add to the situations will help some people!

CHop chop!

Barbecue and barbecue accessories are the new hot up-sell!

Just check the join pages on the sites you promote, if you want to really test use a protected or prepaid card.

Check domain join and referral join, don't forget to look for cross or upsales once you login as surfer POV.
