So – you have a great product that you would like to promote online. However, one of the main obstacles which anybody can be confronted with is finding a great platform that will generate the interest you need. ClickBank is one such place, and in this post, we are going to show you how to submit a digital product on ClickBank – step by step.
For you to realise the full potential of this marketing method, it can be worth your while to know what the site is about. Essentially, ClickBank is a hub where different people can join together in order to promote the product which you might want to sell, allowing them to take a commission for their efforts. In return, you get valuable cash flow that has stemmed from the excellent work that you might have been doing.
1. If you want to get the ball rolling and use this service, the first step is to go to ClickBank.com. Once you have done so, you will see a page that looks like Fig. 1.
2. The homepage will greet you, and the red sidebar towards the top of the page denotes an array of options for you to choose from. Click the ‘Sell products’ tab to proceed to the next step, as seen in Fig. 2.
3. If you are still learning more about ClickBank at this point, this can be the perfect opportunity to review all of the advantages which are seen on this page. Once you are fully assured that this is an option you want to take, click the green ‘Sign Up’ button, as seen in Fig. 3.
4. Next – you will be asked to fill in a detailed form about who you are, where you live, and the details which are pertaining to your account. An example of how this form should be filled can be found in Fig. 4, where our good friend Joe Bloggs has demonstrated how a sample registration form should look when filled. Fig. 5 demonstrates how you need to accept the terms and conditions before ticking the ‘I have agreed to the terms and conditions’ box and clicking ‘Submit’.
5. Before you have a break, do bear in mind that you will have to verify your registration via email. You will see a screen which tells you to check your email and obtain an eight-digit code. You will also be provided with a hyperlink within this email message for you to use when typing the code in.
6. Once you have done both of these things, you will now be a fully-fledged member of ClickBank. You need to login to continue, so go to the grey area at the very top of the Internet window and click ‘Log In’. You will then be prompted to punch in your details, as done so in Fig. 6.
7. Now you are a member, it is time to prepare your account for submitting a product. Before you can do this, you need a shipping profile which clearly denotes where you can sell your product and the costs which are associated with doing so. In our example, we are going to be selling an eBook, and so once we calculated how much it would cost to send the eBook to a client of ours in America, we can add this to our shipping profile. You can do how many of these are required, based on whether or not you offer an international service. It will look like Fig. 7.
8. Next, you need to go to ‘My Products’, where you can fill in details about the item which you plan to submit. In Fig. 8, you can see information about our sample product filled out in detail. At this stage, you need to fill out the various fields associated with your item before clicking the green ‘Save Changes’ button.
9. Once you have done all of this, it can be important for you to bear in mind that you will need a page that pitches your product and explains what it is all about. Also, you will need a place which directs those who have purchased an item from you after they have paid. Both of these websites need to be external to ClickBank. Making sure that payments are also conducted securely is important. If you click back onto ‘My Products’, you will see that the status of your item is now ‘Approval Request Required’. Clicking on this will allow you to select the categories which can get you one step closer to completing submission.
10. Now, you need to choose relevant categories to your item. If you are selling an eBook, you will be asked to choose a genre that your title can fit into for affiliates to market.
11. Once you have clicked ‘Save Changes’, you will be lead to a brand-new page where you fill in more details about your product. At the top of the page, there is also a confirmation of all of the details provided so far. When filled out, the page will look like Fig. 9. Make sure that you have all of the necessary marketing information that conforms to the terms and conditions you accepted from ClickBank previously. When you are done, click the green ‘Submit Product Approval Request’ button.
12. After this, congratulations are in order! You have submitted your first digital product on ClickBank. You will see a message which confirms the request has been sent, and you should expect to wait as long as a week to get a response on whether your product will be accepted. Good luck!
