Selling is a numbers game and there are 5 factors you MUST know to calculate how much money your ebook launch is going to make.

Factor #1. You must find JV partners with targeted lists who are interested in what you are selling or this won’t work. Think about it, if you’re selling a dating product and you work with JV partners who are selling health products nobody is going to buy! It’s that simple.

Factor #2. It depends on the size of your JV partners’ lists. The good news is that you don’t need to get to the top dogs in your field to make good money! In fact, I did a launch that got in front of 100,000 eyeballs and made $9,649.50 in a few days-not bad for a couple of emails!

Factor #3. The niche you’re in makes a difference. So if you get in front of 100,000 eyeballs-which is very doable (you’re talking about 30 partners with lists of just 3,300 people each) , statistics show that if you’re in the health field, 30% of the people will open you email and see your offer. In Internet Marketing, it’s closer to 10%, so it depends on your niche. (That means in the health field my launch could have brought in as much as $28,948.50!

Factor # 4. It depends on how well your sales page converts. Of the people who open your email, about that same percentage will take action and go to your ebook-sales page (10-30%) . And then 1% conversion is normal, 2 1/2 percent is good, 5% is really good and anything over that is excellent.

Factor # 5. It also depends on how much you are selling your ebook for. Obviously an ebook that sells for $47 will make more than one that sells for $27.

But all you have to do is calculate these 5 factors and you’ll have a pretty good idea of how much money you are going to make before you do your launch.
