    Although the ebook is about 5-6 years old now, Kenster's Rags2Riches is a great ebook which explains the basics of CPA marketing, which is still relevant. You should be able to find it by searching on Google. If not, I can send it to you.

      Googling finds me either people selling it or takes me to kenster's post here with a not available notice, and add to waiting list....if you could send it then that would be appreciated thanks !!

        Are you looking at promoting via paid methods or "free" methods.

        There are so many different way to get involved with CPA that you won't really find a one size fits all guide.

        If you are just looking for a broad overview of the industry I can send you a 27 page guide I wrote a while back. Just message me if you are interested. Just jump to page 7 and read on from there. The first few pages is just personal story junk and stuff like that.

          Honestly? not a clue! Considering paid traffic as i've read that once you get the whole assessing cost per click and profit process then it is a numbers game...but ive only read vague guides and loads of bits missing - so trying to piece them together. I would probably use some free vouchers to try to play at first, but yes if there is evidence that what I am doing is at least along the right track then I can see myself jumping in.

          I have had some success a few years ago using blogs and amazon adverts....made small amounts of money but other than this nil IM success....looking to focus on one specific method as everyone says to do, so yes i guess a broad overview of this part of IM would be great...please send over the guide!

          I have also just been sent a guide from cooler1, thanks very much - Kenster's rags to riches...so going to immerse myself in that too, and hopefully see where that leads me.

          Thanks people!

      Thanks for trying to help anyway but all this does is lead somewhere to pay for more information.

      Kind regards

                Succeeding in affiliate marketing requires writing ad copy, finding traffic source and building landing pages to direct the visitors to offers; u can pick 1 offer and make a home run with it but if u don't know the 3 fundamentals above u will continue to struggle, that's joining a forum or having a mentor/coach is so important. All the 3 fundamentals that I talk about up above can be found here in the forum for free, however that's only if u have loads of time on your side. There is also so much u can learn from failed campaigns. Knowing what makes a failed and winning campaign will only make u a better marketer so that u don't repeat same mistake again. Remember the 3 fundamentals I talk about above. If u run 100th campaign u will have learn so much from ur 1st campaign, why? U'll have learn the fundamentals of winning and losing campaign and that knowledge is priceless because it is something u cannot get by buying a eBook or course.

                  This is solid advice. Added some line breaks to make it more readable. Nothing turbo charges the learning process like taking action.

      I have a 7 day ppv course. It lays out everything you need to do from hosting, tracking, affiliate offers, traffic platform, first landing page and launching your first campaign.

      It's basically lays out what I did when I first started out. It's free, i do suggest joining affplaybook in the course which is where I get my money but it's not a requirement and you can take action with just the stuff in the course.

      If you are interested just click the link in the signature, send me an email and I'll just give you the whole thing at once instead of the seven day drip feed. Worst case scenario you have free information you don't do anything with

          Any chance I could get a copy too? Ive been going through a few courses but none of them are newbie friendly or focus on just one specific part.

          Thank you
