First let me tell you that this is more of an educated guess based on past experiences, then a factual document but should be very close to factual, so use this info as my opinion please...
I figure the following estimates for 1 signup, these are NOT based on impressions of a link but are based on how many people actually visit the page and hear the message (a hit to a site).
To get 1 sign-up:
* 15,000 hits from an auto-surf exchange.
* 4,000 hits from a manual hit exchange.
* 1,500 from emailed ads (these are how many people visit the site, not how many get the email)
* 100 pay-per-click targeted advertising (like google adwords)
* 50 message boards/classified ad hits (again not how many people see the message, but how many people visit the site after seeing the message)
* 100 banner hits (again not how many people see the banner, but how many people visit the site after seeing the banner)
Now what is the difference between impressions and hits?
Many people are confused. A hit is when someone actually visits the page. An impression is when you have a link or a banner and it is shown to people, they still haven't visited the site until they click the link or banner and are sent to the site. How many impressions per hit (this also is just an educated guess and also depends on your banner or link):
For every 1000 banner/link impressions you should get 1 hit Now these numbers changed based on how much info you give with them. For example, if you posted a link on a message board (note some message boards want people to stick to the topic of the board and they don't allow advertising) and you gave a testimonial or a little sales pitch with it then you are probably getting even as good as:
20 impressions for every 1 hit.
So do some of the math. Say you join a banner exchange, you would need to get (approximately) 100,000 impressions before you got one sale. Because, with 100,000 impressions you would get about 100 hits and out of those you would get approx. 1 signup.
I am NOT saying do not do banner advertising, I am just trying to tell you to set your expectations right. Now here are some other statistics that are worth mentioning: (these are based on other projects that I have done) For every 40 (leads) phone calls you make, you should get someone to signup.
For every 10 people that you know that you talk to about this, like friends and family you would get a signup. This number increases based on how much info you are able to give them. For example, if you have them watch the DVD from GDI.
This number also increases if you watch it with them.
You can see why most network marketing companies encourage you to talk to their friends and families. One great feature is that we help our downlines, by putting people under them. Don't let people use this as a crutch, just tell them you will help them. Because "I make the same amount of money whether I put them under you or if I put them under me."
The average person knows personally about 200-250 people. And are much closer with about 30 people. I hope this helps you to know what you need to do. Be creative, there are many, many other methods of advertising that I haven't even mentioned here.
"This is a numbers game", how many times have you heard that? In a way we really can't control how many sign-ups we get. What we can control is how many hits we get to our referral pages. Send traffic from everywhere that you can think of, DON'T STICK TO ONE METHOD!
This is your business, in a way you are being paid to place ads. At first it won't be as much an hour as you would like. But soon it will start to increase. As your downlines get involved and start advertising you will see it start to snowball.
Don't get frustrated, especially right now. It is the slowest time of the year for network marketing (Christmas time). But have hope! January is one of the best times. People set new goals for the new year.
People also are looking at their bills from Christmas and are a little discouraged so they decide to find new ways to make money and pay off their bills. I am always working on sending advertising to send people to the general rotation of people who have not gotten their 3 people yet. I am also working on some great tools to help you succeed.
Success to ALL!!!
