I'm really interested in the 'fake' sales page idea, thanks for sharing the details. From these numbers, did you have a formula in mind that would determine if you could make money from the book? In other words, if you sell for $27, those 15 buys generate $405, which is obviously more than the $100 spent on Adwords. But how many of the 15 people who clicked Buy would actually buy? Also, did you list a price on your 'fake' sales page next to the Buy button? Also, given your fake sales page experience, have you considered advertising with Adwords? |

In my mind it wasn't scientific. If I could put a sales page for a product that doesn't exist and even one person attempts to give me money, imagine what I could do if I had a real product and could even show a sample, testimonials, etc.
The fake sales page, for me, was just to test that I wasn't off my rocker with the idea and to get a little motivation to push forward.
I have spent a bit of money on advertising (<$200) and saw almost no returns from it.
