How I Took a Group Of Complete Beginners to $100 a Day In 20 Days

[nicholasb]

here is how I increased my sales and traffic instantly with video and how you can too.

when I first started online I was only able to get started thanks to ezinearticles and squidoo.

As the internet evolves so should your methods.

here is a method I taught to a few close friends and some family members that took them from an absolute marketing noob to making all over 100 dollars a day, with just a few hours a week.

1. find a niche using clickbank.com (nothing revolutionary yet)

2. Find out what keywords people are typing in in youtube https://ads.youtube.com/keyword_tool

3. find related videos in the niche with high views counts

4. paste the video url into the video url section in the keyword tool

you will come up with a huge list of tags related to the video, use all of those for tags in your video.

5. pull some powerful benefits from the sales page you are promoting, and turn those into your video titles.

6. go to stock.xchng - the leading free stock photography site to get some free stock photos,

you want to find pictures that clearly represent the end result that the market is trying to achieve, if they want to date successfully shw a picture of a couple kissing, if they want to satisfy a women in bed show a picture of a happy women laying in bed smoking a cigarette..IMPORTANT show the end result the market wants to acheive IMPORTANT

7. Watermark the video with url and also with a call to action. for example "Bring Home a women Tonight TakerHome.com. it is ok to use the word free and it is encouraged because on youtube people are not in the buying frame of mind.

8. set up a lead capture page with weebly.com A plain white will do, but be 100% sure you use video. since they came from a video site you do not want to interupt the flow from video to text.

after they opt in direct them right to the sales page, also create a minimum of 7 follow up emails talking about the product you are promoting.

9. clearly state in the video what you are giving them and why.

10. make 5 videos a day, short 1-2 minute videos that's it.

be sure to actually give away some valuable tip in each video.

I would say do 5 videos a day until you are up to 100

so about 20 days the reason is so that you can set these up in your free time anytime you have around an hour to spare each day.

if you really want to get hardcore google search "traffic Geyser free 30 day trial" where you can find a free 30 day trial.

I have taught this method only to a close group of family and friends and all with similar results after 20 days they were all making between 60-120 a day consistently ever since.

the holidays are coming so get cracking.

Great info. Thanks for sharing that. Is that 60-120 visitors or dollars?

60-120 dollars a day in 20 days

the visitor count was anywhere from 100-300 a day

[Matt Gannon]

thanks for the tips, I'm going to use this method and see what I can come up with!

yeah I would love to hear your results

[digitalproductreporter]

is there a difference between this and straight spamming youtube? No need to answer, this is clearly spam.

not only that but many of these accounts get banned so it's not really a long term strategy.

why not get a script to create some videos from text and upload 1000 videos per day and destroy the site with spam much quicker?

[Big Bob]

Great tips! No excuses now, get busy!

[Hackbridge]

Say you only do one video, how long does it take to implement from researching to uploading the video, that leads to the landing page and then sales page?

Thanks in advance

WOW ... the OP sure wouldn't have anticipated this ... I don't think it's spam but if you think it is why not use the same method only with "geniune" videos ... it still is a great method

Thanks for sharing this nicholasb ... it's a good method and it seems quite original.

how is sharing valuable info with people interested in the niche spamming?

I will research a niche very extensively, usually a day or two, just so I can provide unique and valuable content that will actually educate the viewer in some way.

if you wanted to you could even pay a writer. you want to always make sure you are educating the viewer in some way. if they feel they have learned someting from your video your responses will be much higher.

[digitalproductreporter]

"how is sharing valuable info with people interested in the niche spamming?"

dude, you say to find the tags for the popular videos and then bulk upload videos to those same tags to drive their users to your affiliate pages.

Go ahead and send an email to youtube support and ask if they think your mehtod is spam. lol

"I don't think it's spam"

it doesn't matter what you or I think. It's been proven time and again that accounts with low quality videos on youtube that exist to drive traffic back to affiliate pages get banned.

You can claim you will provide "valuable" content with this method but 99% who read it won't.

the majority of the method is old school, for instance here's a similar post from a year and a half ago

Ripping YouTube vids for CPA offers | Cash Tactics

I love youtube and use it daily so I get frustrated when seeing people

1. Pretend they aren't spamming

2. Teach others how to spam

I'll leave this thread alone now, forums are for offering other opinions and I gave an alternate one on this method

Thanks for the idea

[nicholasb]

tat's not even similar, since I create the video myself, I don't download another video and re upload it.

it's all quality content created by myself. you only use the tags in the related video to show up in the related videos panel.

I don't see how this is similar to what you are talking about. it's not even close.

how is it different from writing and submitting 100 articles to ezine articles.

the only difference is that the article is turned into a video and posted to you tube.

never had a youtube account banned, I have helped a lot of people find what they are looking for and fix their problems.

[Zeus66]

For what it's worth, I don't think it's spamming. I think it could be used to spam if you cut a bunch of corners, but what Nicholas has laid out is not spamming, imho.

I mean, seriously, have you seen all the ridiculous wastes of space that a lot of YouTubers pass off as "legitimate" videos? I think if Nicholas provides even an ounce of useful info for those interested in that niche, he's done more than most YouTubers. Again, just mho.

So I guess writing and submitting 5 articles per day/week to the article directories is also "spamming" the article directory sites?

And adding relevant tags(keywords) is bad for SEO as that would actually drive targeted traffic to the article/video?

Wow, that doesn't make sense at all.

When everyone and anyone get access to a tool like youtube, it's bond to get flooded with low quality stuff, and the definition of spam changes at this point. You can't expect to see it all nice and clean with high quality contents ... there are lots of crappy videos on youtube that have been posted with no intentions of driving traffic to anywhere, usually thats the kind of stuff that bothers me.

Nicolas puts out some good info here on Warrior Forum. Too bad his threads get hijacked by naysayers. I guess it is easier to complain and dismiss than it is to take action.

yeah it's always easier to try and break someone down then actually build yourself up,


I believe it's called "envy"

it's too bad some people would focus all their energy on breaking someone down than actually applying the knowledge and make some money themselves

[TyBrown]

I didn't know about that Youtube keyword search tool, thanks a bunch!

[rbecgolf]

Thanks bro!

Good advice, keep sending it out. We appreciate you!

your welcome I plan to keep cranking out really good advice.

I have some more powerful and effective methods I will be sharing in the future.

[TrafficGuy Claude]

Awesome method, shouldda been a WSO!

I love that reaction.

I strive to give away info that people will actually pay for...

[George Sepich]

Your headline sounds like one for a soon to be WSO. Is that your intention?

George

[Success With Dany]

Not cool the people dissing your info.

Thanks for the free stock photo plug, nicholasb!

[TCmarketer]

How many video's per niche need to be done? is that like 5 per niche/product till you have 100 vids for 20 products? or 100 vids for the one niche?

[nicholasb]

didn't really plan on it, but if enough people want to see me in action with some screen cams I might consider it.

by popular demand only

[nicholasb]

I would say 100 per niche, from my experience. 5 videos a day for 20 days,, so it's doesn't become a daunting task.

5 videos a day gives you a good achievable goal each day and something to build and focus on each day

[rapidscc]

Nicholas,

First, let me say thank you for such an inspiring post..$100 a day in 20 days could definitely change peoples lives.

I haven't tried that yet. Honestly. But I think it is a sound plan. I just hope that since you are already giving the method away for free you also have some plan for actual support to REALLY HELP OTHERS DO THIS..

The forum is filled with these kinds of GEMS..but what I observed is that only a very minimal few profits from it. Think about it, if a lot of people implements this and the other post similar to this, majority of us here would be rich..but this is not the case...

And I don't want to say that people are LAZY, NO. I think they are just overloaded with too much valuable information that they end up mentally blocked.

So I hope that for maximum effect and to really change peoples lives you'll take action to help the people who read this thread and see to it that they take this to fruition. Otherwise this will just be another GEM that will get buried like most of them are..

I know it is not you're duty to see to it that people implement this, hey you've already given your hands why give the whole arm right? But you have already thrown this to us..If you don't initiate a way to actually see warriors to do this..again this will only add up to the GEMS that tend to block warriors other than push them to action.

I'm not saying you do it for free, I'm just saying that sometimes pointing the way is not enough when THERE ARE THOUSANDS WHO ARE POINTING AND AT SEPARATE LOCATIONS AT THE SAME TIME..

Guide us all the way..check on us..communicate with us..hold our hand..and see to it that we make it all the way to that $100 per day in 20 days..

Do this to me and I'LL HAPPILY GIVE YOU $50 per day as long as I make that $100..

That is a covenant I'm making, not only to you but to any warriors who will do the same..

Everyday I keep seeing threads like these but a very few that say..COME I'LL TAKE YOU UNDER MY WINGS AND REALLY HELP YOU OUT..

Again, if you do this and I do make that $100 per day, I'll Give you $50 for the rest of my successful life and that is $1,500 per month for the rest of your life doing nothing..

I hope this will be a wake up call for other warriors..Sometimes ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS..

All Success!

I don't know about that but would love to see an example video, like a 2 min vid. doesnt matter what on just in the same style.

[Jason_V]

I just want to jump in and remind people, especially for the newbies, if they find this thread helpful and useful, to hurry up and save it, in case it disappears.

[Jeremy Kelsall]

One thing that is worth mentioning is that if you are submitting 5 articles a day it might be wise to do so with different accounts and maybe even proxies?

YouTube is cracking down a bit and have been known to delete a profile or 2

I've never tried this method exactly, but it looks like the key to pulling it all together is finding the buying keywords with the YouTube Keyword tool...

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work and might even give it a go for the next 20 days maybe

[Yudi]

Nick,

Awesome post as always. Couple areas I need some clarification on though, if you wouldn't mind please:

So are you saying we use the stock photos as our background image while we're talking about the topic? Or what?

Do you recommend talking head videos or screen capture presentation style videos or just the photo itself?

Or is the photo for the squeeze page?

How do you get weebly to work as a lead capture page? I tried pasting in my aweber code and it didn't work at all.

How do I get the html code for the optin box to work?

And are you saying that instead of putting text on the squeeze page it should just be a video pitch as to why they should opt in?

Originally Posted by nicholasb

Do you mean what you are giving them when they opt in to your list or when they buy the product or what?

What exactly ARE you giving them?

Thanks so much for your help! Loving this method so much.

[abhi1]

Now this is something new to me when it comes to affiliate marketing. I'd give it a try next week. And as Matt Gannon already pointed, I'd love to see a video in action too

Thanks for the awesome share

[nicholasb]

hey yudi,

yes use the stock photos in the backround, kind of like a one slide power point type thing. with just your audio content playing in the backround.

you can also do the same thing for your lead capture page. I always use screen capture software when in a niche unrelated to marketing.

here is an example of one of my students landing pages made with weebly Your Title Here, except he didnt use video on the landing page.. I think he is adding it later.

you can add html to weebly if you click the custom html box in the templates section. or you could create html in an editor like nvu and paste it into a custom template

on the actual landing page you want to give them a really useful tip that they would opt in for, like a benefit of some kind, make sure that this is ten times better than the youtube videos, but make sure the youtube videos are good too.

I try to give away good info, stuff that people would actually pay to see for free, just for opting in.

on the squeeze page it should have a benefit driven headline, then beneath it a video then underneath that 3-4 bullet points then the opt in box.

hope that helps

[nicholasb]

here is a video example from one of my students who just started a few days ago

YouTube - 3 Fail-Proof Ways To Tell If She's Into...

[theimdude]

From this thread it seems you get the moaners, advisors, talkers and the doers.

For the moaners about youtube you don't know what you talking about as seems all the videos provide information rather than junk and if you knowledge on youtube is true then 50% of the videos must be removed

For the advisers the OP appears to be the best here so take his advice

For the talkers stop talking and become doers

For the doers I have some spare space in my bank account if you want to share your bounty

Nicholas thank you sharing this it is good stuff. I am not to good on videos and will perfect that soon and give it a go. Any possibilty sharing some of the videos you did to get a general idea how you made the video but If you dont want I will understand

[paradox_qu]

Thanks for the great info, but one question.

Are the entire videos of the "end result" pic and you talking over the pic with your tips? Are your tips a text over the pic?

Basically is the entire video the "end result" pic? And is your tip a voice over or a text over?

Thanks
-Nick

AFAIK it would depend on your niche and how much effort you wanna put in. Better the video, more will be the views and more visits to your squeeze page.

As in the example, it has around 30 views and I guess none of them would have opted or converted.

So, everything will depend on your VIDEO and how many eye balls will it attract.

PS It's just what I think. Could be wrong. Just IMHO

[eaglechick]

I always had the cunning feeling that the "real" secrets would come from everyday
people - thanks.

the pictures depict the end result the niche wants. so whatever their desired end result would be show a picture of that in your backround.

ten just do audio over the picture, with the only text being your website url and a short call to action

Hey Nicholas I hit the jackpot as my wife's daughter is not working at the moment so I will hire her for a day or 2 make a few hours of videos and then split them into 2 minute videos. Now just need a guy as an extra

This is really her that is why I put the watermark so hands off

This video doesnt work. It says it was removed because of TOS.

[jacksonlin]

Is this still a long term strategy?

Why was the video removed?

I had a video removed from YouTube apparently because it violated their TOS.

I just screen captured my site and talked about the content on the site.

I was providing valuable information, but then I got my video removed...

[jsherloc]

I am guessing that YouTube is probably on the hunt for these types of promotional videos, but then again, maybe it is something else they are using to flag certain videos.

Also, I would imagine that using a huge amount of tags MIGHT draw attention to the video and cause it to be flagged, not really sure though.

I am also curious about the "long-term" aspects of this technique, Nicholas how have your friends/family videos fared over the course of a few weeks?

[Thomas W]

Holy Crap. This is my first time i ever heard that youtube had a keyword search tool.. Just when i thought i knew everything

[portalmaker]

Nicholas...

Thanks for the step by step. Really good info.

Since there seems to be some concerns regarding the current effectiveness of this strategy, I would really like to see a case study provided as a WSO. It is hard to find good solid info based upon factual case studies that show strategies on how to effectively promote videos.

Thanks,

Jim
