Is US nutra on the verge of death? (21)
Anyone running US nutra will know cap has dried out this past while. The big banks have been shutting down ALL trial MID's.
Didn't thought this would happen so soon but is this the end for nutra trials? Do you think advertisers can somehow find a way around this?
Lol, you didn't expect this to collapse since everyody is jumping on it like a mad man with the sleaziest angles every seen? Oh boy...
The nutra vertical will never die, advertisers will just adapt, see COD offers. Maybe the ROI% will not be as great as it was with the trial offers, but the vertical will still be much alive.
Straight Sales will go up 
All shady billing methods/models will get regulated sooner or later, it's something that's happening over and over. I'm sure some other similar approach will emerge sooner or later, but for now, you'll have to go with direct sales.
Straight sales and COD offers would be present. I have heard rumours that the MID issues would be sorted. New advertisers will face more issues
Not all the mids got shut down, there are new regulations and rules that advertisers will have to adhere to. Sophistication will be key, good support and good traffic will have to go hand in hand. Affiliate ROIs will have to be traded in for consistency and peace of mind. Whether its through less aggressive angles (fewer celebrity associations and lies) and more straight sales supplements will stick around.
nutra will always be around. as long as people want to get healthy, lose weight, and look better - eternity
US nutra is never going away. Advertisers will just be forced to move towards straight sales. I wouldn't be surprised to see straightsales match or beat trial EPCs in the near future as the industry adapts. It's already happening.
No more retention rate bullshit and limited caps to deal with. I'm all for it.
The circle of products. Back in the early 2000's it was all straight sale and everyone did just fine. Advertisers and traffic drivers will just have to adapt. As mentioned above, people will always want to lose weight, look younger, be stronger, be smarter and whatever else.
I've actually noticed a huge increase in cloaked ads since the US election scandal. It's as if internal ad compliance teams switched modes and became more lenient and put all their efforts towards whatever was giving them bad press (political ads). Seems now the game has changed to finding the right guys with cap.
Here's a small sample of the 100s of cloaked ads running right now:

This isn't the end of US nutra. It will always be around. It will just evolve totally differently than what it is now. For the very few best US mids which are left, they are already given to those pubs with proven quality. Most people now trying to switch to Asian mids instead as backup and people are also exploring other English speaking geos like AU CA UK NZ. Also, straight sales are making a killing now and COD has becoming more popular too. AM is changing and growing constantly. So its either you adapt, evolve, compete or die.
Just the circle, nutra trial will never go away.
Try COD instead 
I haven't done nutra rebills for years now but it's funny how times haven't changed, this could pretty much read like a thread from 2010.

Free trial is having its worst days ever, but one loss is another one gain.
Straight sale offers are now booming.
Unlimited budget and no returns.
feel free to contact me for more details.
It's been a matter of time until the days of the "14 day Free Trial" for "only $3.95" that rebills at $100+ dies a fiery death.
Good.
Yes, it was easy to make money filling that diet cap, especially around New Year's... But now marketers can make money without screwing over consumers.
Straight sale will end up making you more money, and you can sleep at night knowing that you're not screwing over a 60-year-old on a single income out of her last $100 in her checking account.
