ROI, PPC Reserves, Banner Rotation, Team Building (and I give you $)

RonHamernik · 01-01-2009, 11:11 AM

I'm ramping up to promote in the CPA arena. I believe that Preparation + Opportunity = success and I could use some help from experienced Warriors in the preparation area.

Let's assume that my mid-term goal is to Net $5,000 per day (and eventually $15,000 per day).

Here are my questions:

1. Can anyone suggest what metric I should use for ROI? Should I assume a 25% ROI, a 100% ROI or something more (or less) conservative?

2. In setting my (daily) PPC investment, should I have enough money set aside for 15 days, 30 days, or a longer period of time to allow for funds to start coming in?

3. Can anyone make any recommendations about Open-X for rotating my offers and tracking my conversions? I believe that Jeff Johnston recommends it because it is open source and free. But I'm going to be joining PPC-Coach's program and, possibly, another one as well. Are the tools in the Coach's membership site superior to Open-X?

4. For planning purposes, at what point do you build a team? And what functions do the team members fill? Someone to put up landing pages? Administrative? I'm already employing people in a brick and mortar capacity as well as virtually, so I want to prepare to leverage this business as soon as possible and necessary.

If anyone has already exceeded the net $5,000/day level, please PM me. If you're available to e-mail me suggestions every once in a while, I'd like to join the network using your link. :-)

Thanks to everyone!
