Amish Shah just released a 3000$ software that was capable of managing all the ads from within the software. I don't know if you have heard of it. maybe it would help a lot in the process.
Good Luck

is that one year profit or monthly? Right now I'm at $20K/month level, I just reached $1K mark a day yesterday, I'm using PPC only, including Adwords.

I'm thinking of scaling up using PPV. I've tried media traffic before but no luck, they sending me junk traffic. But I will give it another try.

Thanks

100k a Year is my plan, then will keep scaling, Ive met people doing 50k a day at affiliate summit west 2011, so I know it's possible! Good work on 20k Is that strictly Ppc to Cpa?

Right now we do 12-16k a month profit from other online and offline businesses.

  I got this plan from a very wealthy person in the industry. Ive been working at it for 2 months with minimal results. But at least now i have the overall picture and tools needed to get the job done.
  
  Now it's a matter of working the plan. (already set up a bunch of new campaigns in 4 different Cpv networks) As soon as the campaigns are approved ill know what's working and what's not working as soon as today.

Yes that's 100% CPC to CPA.
so my profit is only about 60%, my monthly cost is around 10K. Luckily I get get weekly payment so that I can maintain my cost per week, this is only from one offer, I'm thinking of promoting Financial/insurance cpa soon.

Hey swayman,

Any suggestions on Reports or good systems for learning Cpc/CPV to CPA? No that I have some decent adsense income working, I'm ready to try a new strategy.

Thanks for any tips..

That's great man, how much testing and tweaking did you do to find this 1 campaign? Also did you have experience or did you just somehow get lucky and find this campaign that worked so well?

Do you care to share which tools you are using for tracking and testing etc.?

I always test an offer using SEO first, if the conversion is good then I start using PPC.

I've been in the CPA business for about 2-3 years now, have tested hundreds of offers, I'm happy to let you know that it wasn't a coincidence, it's just a hard work paid of.

I don't use any fancy tools for tracking and testing, for tracking I only using the SID code utility provided by the network. For PPC using Adwords and 2nd tier network such as 7search, advertise.com.

That's what I figured hard work did pay off and it wasn't just luck. Didn't think it was blind luck however though id ask anyway.

Good plan although personally I would stay far, far away from Media Traffic.

Used to be great for me and I made good money using them and now the traffic just seems like a waste of time plus their claims of impressions never match up with my own tracking and are a couple hundred off for every thousand.

"Some people will say damn I made alot of money on the internet, some will say well at least I tried, others will say i regret not trying it out for myself" - Shoemoney

Now is the time not tomorrow!
Learned so much on here and been waiting for the "aha" moment to come. Well that moment has not arrived, doubt it ever will.

I guess it's back to the good old "what's working" for me. So far have a few successes, gonna bank on those and move forward.

Here is my plan after 2 months of reading studying and testing. BTW side note I already make a full time living off my online business ventures. (non-cpa).

Here is the plan:

Will use these traffic sources in this order.

Expected 1k-5k profit level
--------------------------
1. CPV trafficvance, leadimpact, directcpv, and Media Traffic.
If I focus on these 4 only should be lovely as I will master them.

Tracking tool Cpvlab will tell me exactly what Urls and keywords are converting.
drop dead ones and move on.

5k-25k profit level
-----------------
2. Once I find a profitable campaign I will scale it using the 4 networks above (cpv)
then move onto PPC Facebook, Adcenter, and possibly adwords.

25k-100k profit level
--------------------
At this point I should have all my ads that work well..

3. If the campaign is still rocking past step 2, then it's time for the BIG daddy. Media buys!
will start off with Direct Media buys then find best banners to use. Testing grounds here.

Once I have my "working banners" that convert well.
4. will move onto Adbrite, Pulse360(beast), Advertising.com (Aol), Adblade, Advertise.com.

At this point I should break 100k profit if all goes well.

Anyone have some input on this process? As it's an already proven process from the Rockstar Alliance however they use banners much sooner in this process.

100k is well within reach if you work hard.

Think about it...100k a year is only $275 a day. This is pretty much converting under 10 higher paying offer per day which isn't terribly difficult if you are seeing thousands of visitors per day.

If you are going the paid traffic route (which it seems you are) then getting the traffic isn't the hard part, but rather converting the traffic. BUT, if you do convert the traffic at a positive margin, then you can scale and hit some much more substantial numbers than the $275 net per day.

My advice would be to make sure you are in it 100%, make sure you are ready to work hard, and don't look for shortcuts at first. Look for shortcuts after you find something that works!

Best of luck, hope to see you in the winners circle!

I already work super hard and make about $550 a day profit, and I don't give up so it will be done, it's just a matter of time. In my OP I stated that I was waiting for that AHA moment (shortcut).. Well I don't expect it anymore, just gotta put the work in and do it. Thanks Kenster for motivation to keep going.

Yea I feel you man, on second thought, I hate to feel that it was in fact just a coincidence, I also trying to find that AHA moment that I could repeat on other verticals, that's why I want to try another niche to see if I can make the same profit/success.

Yes just like Kenster said, don't do shortcuts until you have successes then look for shortcuts. One such shortcut can be going into different verticals with same concepts and replicate or as others like to say, rinse, repeat.

This is how it starts:

had a small success with an email/zip submit offer awhile back, brought it back to life with good keywords and urls only in 1 day it's ok again.

just need to find a better higher payout market that converts soon. which I am already testing as well.

Also this is PPV which i think is much faster and easier to get started with. again, once I find a good converting offer I will scale it with PPC and media buys. oh well not much but it's a start.

  For the email submit I have a squeeze page, that basically says "welcome ABC.com customer here is a chance to get XXXX" make it's seem like it's part of the actual site they landed on.
  
  They submit the email, then it's redirected to the offer.
  
  Im sure not making as much money as I should here but the Ppv network does not allow direct linking to this particular campaign because of a exit pop up on the offer page..
  
  I am being paid to build a list of targeted prospects for future email offers, which currently has 20 email follow up sequence.

Todd for PPV look for a Wso from Mike Morgan it's a good crash course on Ppv, also look for Stephon Phon (on google) this guy actually walks you step by step on a video format on how to create campaigns (made for new people I guess).

EDIT: You also need a url scraper - I use affportal.com and you also need to test for yourself what will work and what will not work, no one can tell you this, you must test for yourself.

The tracking software is CPVlab I was using prosper202 before did not work well for me.

This Cpvlab is awsome, Now I know exactly what's making money or not and it has MANY cool features. If you search on google it's easy to find. A bit expensive but well worth the price if your serious about Ppv. Before it took me 15-20 minutes to set up on prosper202 now takes 5 minutes in Cpvlab.

This is a solid mentality. It's very to the point but takes building up, but also be creative with things. Realize all of the different traffic sources you can find, they are endless in each niche. Realize keywords, and specific url's to bid on for your campaigns. If you thought creatively and efficiently, and not just trying to grind "ahh" moments out of your head, then you'll start to realize how micro-niches can be the extreme power in profits / low competition / low bidding.

No I don't plan to make this profit in 7 days. I will make this profit this year. Already found my market after careful research and now it's time to get it started. (btw) I already have 5 failed campaigns this will be my 6th try. However with my experience and research im sure this new market I'm working on is not overly saturated and will be easy to tap into using paid and free traffic sources.

Quick update: I have had about 4 failed campaigns in ppv but now that I am tracking it clearly I am not wasting time. I have had 1 good ROI campaign which I cannot scale yet because I think it's the wrong market and it's only a email submit. I am still working on finding a good market..

Next market on my list is either Dating or Penny Auctions (which has a $90.00 payout)

I have also worked on my other domains that get organic search traffic and have been doing decent returns with that.

Also started working with a coach. Now been focused on PPC (facebook). I can see this working, it just takes so much persistence.

I have not been able to make PPV profitable at this time except my small winner, However It I think it's a great list building tool. (if you have time to nurture your list, which I don't)

So basically my update is that I have stopped using PPV for now and jumped into facebook almost breaking even there at least. once I break even all I have to do is optimize my campaigns for profit!

BTW the small winner is a direct linking email submit offer.

In terms of CPA only currently doing about $100-$400 a month (without Ppc) with Ppc this goal is attainable.

Overall financials is in the high 6 figures yearly.

Dude CarlosG, you are the man. Just discovered and went through this thread and you are really giving us the almost daily inside scoop. It is interesting though that you were not able to capitalize on your subscriber lists. I would send them the offer again and others gradually. But I may have overlooked/misunderstood what was said.

Will try the Pop Under method with MT. I was always told Pop Over but I believe their traffic is adapting and probably have an impulse to X out Pop Overs.

Thanks alot for the updates and I wish you well.

Thanks

I build a small list rather quickly, I also had a email sequence with 10 or so emails that went back to the offer & to other pages with ads.

However I was not tracking all of this (which keywords etc.) I got bored of it because I didn't know much except that I was losing money so I paused it and got a coach.

I will give PPV another try, but for now I will continue with facebook it's a BEAST..

And I think your right about people adapting to the pop up. In CPV lab you can set what's called an engage rate that times how long the window is actually open before they close it. if it's less than 3 seconds CPV lab will not even count it (which gives you real numbers) on who actually looked at your page.

It's possible as long as you are working a plan and tracking. One big thing is you MUST track and you MUST split test.

Without these 2 things, tracking and split testing you should not even get into Paid traffic.

Yep, the thing about making money online is that a lot of times, your growth is exponential and explosive. Maybe you hove making $20/day or whatever you are making and then BAM, you find something that works well, you scale your campaign, you duplicate the crap out of it, or whatever and you jump right up to $500/day. Then hover there and find something else that takes off and BAM, right up to $1,000 per day.

Unlike many offline businesses, income doesn't slowly trend up nearly as much...which is good and bad.

Also remember that you can jump down just as fast and explosive as you jumped up!

Very true man, I had a campaign doing $50+ a day profit then facebook decided to shut it down without warning! luckily I have many other sources of income online and offline. Even my other online businesses that have been around for years tend to fall off some months then come back all of a sudden.

I have tested many traffic sources, facebook is pretty good. also I am using lead impact ppv which has been good too. Im going to start scaling soon as I have found good offers that convert well.

You must test for yourself, but I start with $.70 CPC normally they only charge me max $.40 cpc avg. I do direct link to offer & I'm using Neverblue and Peerfly however I have accounts to 14 CPA networks just in case one of them dries up. The payouts are normally $3.00 - $4.25

What is your CR ?
These offers must be good..

Can you explain me how do you arrange $.70 CPC and they charge you max $.40 cpc avg ??

I tried to set up some fb advertising to see how it works,but I dont understand how can you change the cost?

CR = conversion Rate.

The Max CPC Bid Is $.70 however FB only chargers the highest bid next to yours. For example if Bidder #2 highest bid is $.39 CPC then FB will charge me $.40 As the highest bidder, it's a bidding platform.

It's saturated however there is a very large number of consumers over 6 million on facebook demographic I'm targeting. the offer has to be fun such as gaming or mobile or others etc. you have to think about the end user on facebook. the user in not in buying mode they in chat mode or relaxing mode.

I think its because I am linking to an offer that is country specific and it always gets rejected. I hear a lot of people say that they get rejected for direct linking to demographic targeted ads but maybe have something to do with who reviews them from FB ad team and what country they are from.

As posted earlier I had a good campaign get shut down earlier this week. I found out that by simply emailing FB in the email they send out of disapproval they explain why they did not allow it. Don't guess on this part. Ask them!

I had 3 campaigns where this happened. Emailed them after the 1st and 2nd got rejected. No reply. 3 different offers. All targeted to the US. That was it. So if someone checks the target URL from outwith the US then they dont get what the ad relates to so they reject it.

Quick Update:
I was super frustrated with the fact of losing a money maker and I went back to PPV
while doing very little with Facebook.

After a week or so I decided to go back to Facebook, I'm glad I did!

Finally Found Another Money Maker From Facebook Ads again!
Breaking about 95-110% ROI Per Day Profit. Now just have to optimize it for better ROI.

I think I'm getting A lot less impressions than I should be, so I will test this as well with new campaigns in the same target market.

Quick stats: My CTR is .2% which means I get 2 clicks for every thousand impressions. A conversion rate of 6%. The best part about this is that the offer pays out different amount for different age groups. Which means that 1 conversion for an older person makes $9.25, while a younger person makes $4.50.

This overall payout has a nice flow and seems to work great for ROI.

My next test is to lower my CPC Bid and check if impressions drop, also I will target my campaign by 1 year of age so for example 35 year old will be 1 ad group, 36 year old would be another ad group.

One thing I've learned from doing IM full time for 3 years now is that things are constantly changing, with CPA specifically sometimes you'll get a profitable campaign and then when it's running good the offer will get pulled. Theres a lot of money to be made in CPA but you have to extremely flexible because offers come and go extremely fast! But your plan sounds great...start rolling it out and then adjust with the flow

If you aren't resilient in your business you can make a lot of money but it won't last. Things change fast and things are VERY dynamic online. This is good and bad.

Its bad because it means you always need to be on your toes and always educating yourself on current trends in the industry.

Its bad because change means opportunity. The more things change, the more pockets of opportunity open up. These opportunities are cash waiting to be had!

It changes too often for my taste, but I guess that's why it's so lucrative.

Gotta update you guys, I got very discouraged these last 45 days.. I had something working then the offer got shut down. I got it back working then FB shut the campaign down.

Had a PPV campaign going then my email server shut me down for spam complaints (finally got it back up did not want to lose my 25k subscribers). It's been 1 big mess after another. However I learned so much over this time frame!! YOU CANNOT JUST EXPECT TO JUMP FROM MARKET TO MARKET AND EXPECT TO MAKE MONEY. I finally am getting this through my THICK skull.

Very fortunate to have a few extra dollars and time to invest into this to learn the ropes, it's very frustrating to get something to work just to have it shut down overnight!
I took a good vacation from all of this to reflect on some things.

Here is what I learned:
1. Focus on 1 market don't jump around.
2. Focus on 1 traffic source until you master it then move on.
3. Never focus on the offer itself but the market in general
4. Don't give up

Right now my CPA market is Dating, and an Adult related market. I will focus on these 2 until i make it work!

Thanks

Carlos,

You started off in your OP mentioning the Rockstar Alliance. One thing I really liked in a fantastic presentation they did on the Rockstar Power Suite is the idea of monetization pathways. The example they gave, and a good one I know because I was recently in this business, is auto insurance leads. The idea is that you can't really make money in a sustainable manner until you add cross-sells and up-sells to your path. So, if you are getting a $12 payout on an auto insurance lead, you'll fail because you'll never be able to significantly lower your costs. Apparently, RPS can facilitate getting insurance payouts to the tune of over $100. Supposedly, THAT is how you become profitable -- focus on increasing your backend monetization, not reducing your CPC.

Have you thought about this concept as it pertains to your new focus -- the Dating market? And if so, have you learned any more about the Rockstar Power Suite? I know it's $997 which is fine with me. But the KEY is figuring out how to "pile on" related offers so that your payouts go way up, enabling you to compete with ANYONE over the longer term. Oh, obviously this strategy rules out direct linking because you need multiple landing pages in order to have a "path".

Please let me know your thoughts.

You are one persistent dude. Keep it up. VERY valuable contributions you have given here for months now.

J

Very good points, no I have not added on any upsells or cross sells, as I have not been capturing leads for the dating market, and I can't see a good fit to cross-sell here. I have not been very focused on CPA too much as I stated I took a long break from it because I had so many issues arise since starting, as stated in previous post.

Anyway I did invest in that program and I was there live in Vegas for the live presentations.
I do not like the software at all and never used it.. They are very good presenters and showed much potential in this game and your point is right on about finding a market then up-selling and cross-selling as they proved in the presentation.

Maybe in a few weeks I will test a new market and test this out, for now I must focus on 1 market and 1 market only.

Thanks

Just offer them more dating offers and sell them some dating products.

Easy peasy!

Thanks

Good luck with your goals.
