You certainly have to pay to be a buyer. I will agree to disagree.

You don't have to pay to sign up though. Lol.

Selling and buying solos is pay to play. You have to pay to be on the homepage, you have to pay to to be in the Solos Deals area, and the top 3 spots of the Find Sellers area are paid. I'm just saying there should be more than 3 spots for the 40 promoted sellers in the Find Sellers area.

Wrong. You don't have to pay for the privilege to advertise as a vendor, or to be a buyer here. Promoted sellers are on the homepage anyway. If you buy a solo deal, Udimi will promote the heck out of you, plus promoted sellers are also located right at the top of the find sellers area too. Isn't that enough for you?

But its the same 7 sellers below the 3 promoted spots all the time. There is no rotation or anything, its unfair. 3 promoted spots to service 40 people with promoted ads, seems inefficient.

That's a different proposition all together, plus I've seen sellers move up and down all the time in the rankings, depending on their ratings etc. Udimi should never become a "pay to play" platform.

Just a recommendation. The "Find Sellers" section gets more visitors than any part of the site, but it only has 3 slots for Promoted Deals, and the other results are just sellers sorted by whoever has the highest Sales Percent, and its the same 7 profiles forever above the fold. The homepage has all the promoted deals but they are below the fold and below the "Buyers Stats" section at the top so they are hard to see, they should be moved to the top of the Home area. The "Find Sellers" spot should have 10 Promoted Sellers spots so that people who pay for a Promoted Deal get the exposure they should get instead of sellers who aren't paying and merely have a high "Sales Percent" which is biased toward new profiles.

Then this becomes only a pay as you go proposition for sellers. Vendors should be rated by performance, customer satisfaction, and integrity, not on the size of their marketing bankroll.

It would save both buyers and sellers a lot of time for the seller to have an option to not allow orders with "no mobile" setting to be submitted.

I'm having to reject every one I receive, and it wastes the buyers time to spend their time submitting orders to sellers trying to find someone who will accept.

I personally can't remember how many buyers have also asked me in advance if I would accept their "no mobile" order or not. Leading me to believe many other sellers also reject 100% of these orders that they receive.

Some of us do offer that as an option Scott.

Cheers

Totally agree. The onus is on the buyer to make sure their funnel is ready to go before placing the order, and that on UDIMI, UDIMI rules.

Good Idea! similar to ebay, paypal, and many other marketplaces ...

This will require resources and more customer support on Udimi end, so if they dont want this there is a simple quick solution for now;

some traffic marketplaces let u add a comment to the review. this could be an easy and simple way also to deter some bad reviewers as u can comment and clear the issue or add a stats link ... extra ... not unlimited comments, just one comment or reply, and if it is a good review, it can be a thank you and more positive words about the buyer ... Win win ...

And also the made sales or not is actually BS in some many cases, most buyers dont even know how to track sales from specific sellers so they select No sales and some buyers say yes to CPLs!! and some make BS reviews to each other as we have seen in another thread ... if someone made sales they can mention it in the review ... this makes thing more clear, simple, less manipulation by some mafia sellers :)

Cheers :)

Definitely agree here. We should be moving away from "made sales". Apart from being easily gamed, this just encourages the idea of solo ads as some get quick rich scheme, especially amongst newbies. Sales are nice to have, but not a given on the front end. What's more important is that the buyer has got a good offer, a funnel, is tracking their clicks, and optimising for best results.

Definitely a good idea to prevent people taking advantage.

Traditionally, the OD was to ensure the buyer got the clicks they paid for. E.g. A buyer bought 100 clicks, so it would look rude to send just 96 because of the vagaries of click tracking/filtering, so you made sure it crossed the line for them. Since it was impossible to always cut the traffic off exactly at 100, they'd end up with a few extra clicks. Kind of an unexpected bonus, and that's how it should have stayed. Big OD's are just front-loading a huge discount on the clicks.

Yet still some buyers who contact me get upset at the already low prices! I expect they actually want 30 cent clicks, 40% OD, AND guaranteed sales. Unfortunately, such a thing exists only in a world with two Tuesdays in it.

There has to be a limit to this crazy race to the bottom. FB is already a graveyard. In the end no one wins. Not the seller, who, unable to reinvest in their list, goes broke. Not the buyer, who just gets a lot of very low quality leads. Not the platform itself, as buyers look for better sources of traffic. The whole niche thrown under the bus for a bit of "drinking money", as they say.

Hi

I want to promote click funnel.

Please guide

Thanks

Ashu,

My suggestion is to try out several of the quality solo sellers on Udimi. This way, you can test their traffic and YOUR offer. It's the only way to know.

Regards

Also, I'd like to add, can Udimi not send funds in the sellers nominated currency, or at least offer a selection of popular currencies for the transfers? Like, US, Euro, Canadian and Australian dollars? This would avoid the hefty exchange conversion fees that PayPal imposes. Up to 13%! Thanks.

ReVolut

Bank Wire with a min of $2,000

Thanks Uncle

I agree. Apart from their initial 2% transfer fee, Paypal takes another huge chunk of change out when I send these funds to my bank account, because of the currency exchange rate, as money from Udimi is deposited in US dollars.

Hi Kris,

If you are expecting immediate sales from running solo ads in my opinion that's a wrong expectation because most sales come from follow ups, if you get immediate sales right from running solo ads you can consider that as a bonus. Survey proof that people decide to buy after 6-7 exposures. I myself reached 48% sales rates conversion sometimes ago but I can't guarantee sales as people on my list has their own decision, we can persuade them to buy but we can not instruct them. So the best way is to build your list and prepare your best follow up series and you will be on your way to get more and more sales.

I have to support what Umar is saying here. The money is made on the follow up. Ensure you not only have a high-converting offer, but also a proper email series to funnel your prospects through the sales process. There is no such thing as overnight success, or overnight riches. Always be striving to improve your marketing, through testing.
