IM Newbie's 40 Days Plan To Get His First Sale. Warriors Advice Please?

19 replies
Hi Fellow Warriors,

After studying through the warrior forum for some time, seems like all warriors agreed that the War Room membership is of superb value.

Hence I decided to put myself (an IM Newbie without any experience of any sort) to an experiment (also using this to kickstart my IM career).

Goal: earn $40 through affiliate marketing within 40 days so that I can purchase the War Room membership to learn more (I know it is small, don't laugh at me).

Plan

Day 1
  • research niche
  • research keywords
  • set up blogger blog
  • setup twitter account
  • open 100 social book marking accounts
  • setup niche squidoo len, hubpages,
Day 2
  • setup top 10 article directories accounts
  • setup 5 x Youtube accounts
  • setup 1 x top 5 video sharing sites' account (other than Youtube)
  • research niche - yahoo answers, niche forums for article ideas
  • select keywords (not too competitive, including affiliate product name)
Day 3
  • setup free autoresponder on blog for lead generation
  • plan & write small launch series email (for affiliate product)
  • create free high quality 3 video series (video 1 to 3 is pure content, video 4 directs them to affiliate product page. Host videos on weebly pages) in exchange for opt-ins
  • Create time limited (or maybe limit it to 20) Affiliate Product Bonus
  • follow 300 people on twitter
Day 4
  • generate 3 power article headlines of different topics (within same niche)
  • write 3 articles of superb quality
  • post on blog
  • rewrite initial 3 articles with 80% unique into 10 more articles
  • submit to top 10 article directories
  • post on squidoo, hubpages
  • post advice on twitter
  • follow 300 people on twitter
  • bookmark blog post, squidoo, hubpages and articles (with random accounts on socialmarker.com)
  • direct all traffic back to blog to generate opt-ins
Day 5
  • turn initial 3 articles into videos
  • submit to youtube (using account 1)
  • re-purpose video and resubmit to youtube (using account 2 to 5)
  • submit initial 3 videos to other top 5 video sharing sites
  • post on squidoo, hubpages
  • post advice on twitter
  • follow 300 people on twitter
  • bookmark squidoo, hubpages and videos (with random accounts on socialmarker.com)
Repeat Steps from Day 4 and Day 5 (alternate days) until Day 39

Day 40 - purchase war room membership

What If I Failed

Analyze, find out where it had go wrong, learn from the lessons and start a new plan again.

What If I Succeed
  • absorb as many things as I can in War Room
  • set plans and apply what I learn
  • fail more, learn more
  • succeed more
What do you think of the plan Warriors?

Any comments, advice, opinions or hack even predictions will be greatly appreciated...

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Darren - IM Newbie with passion

      I was going to suggest the 30DC as well.

      On a side note, I think what is most important here is your mindset. You don't seem to be afraid of failure... and thats a really important piece of the puzzle.

For example, you can write articles at textbroker and get paid around $3-5 for an article. Do the math - about 10 articles and you are done! And 10 articles can be done in a week or MUCH less, right?

        You should follow your action plan first though: you will learn much more. If you fail, well, I have just given you a quick and fast backup plan!
        Thanks Jeff.

        Wow, that's a fantastic contigency plan to get membership. Will definitely put into the action plan.

        Thanks Erica. I'm sure you'll be able to create your own success stories, more so when there so many helpful warriors here.

        Yeah, I agree Benjamin, creating accounts is definitely a pain. But well its only a small sacrifice for the most desired end, so it doesn't matter.

        Article writing

        Write one eBook and sell it with resell rights to one Warrior for $50 (If you need $40 think in terms of earning $50 or at least $45 to cover fees)

        Sell a couple of things on eBay

        Your plan is great, I just hate to see you wait 40 days to get the WarRoom membership when you could do it in a few hours to a couple of days.

        Anyway, I admire your planning and enthusiasm.

        George Wright
        Big thanks George, well I was looking for something that's scalable that's why I planned for this.

        Haha. Troy I definitely hope that the plan will make more than $40 since I've got totally no experience in this area.

        Best of luck,
        Bruce..
        Yeah, all areas of life 90% of people will only dream, dream and dream w/o taking any actions. I was one of them. But not anymore.

        Thanks for your wishes Bruce.

    If you follow your schedule you will have $40 long before 40 days.

    When you get your war room membership my advice would be to go in knowing what your interested in learning(it looks like affiliate marketing for you). If you go in not knowing type of business your going to start/do you can easily get information overload.

    But its worth joining the war room, there is a RIDICULOUS wealth of information there.

      Spot on. There is a ton of stuff that will most likely distract you. Look for things that will help your existing business model. If affiliate marketing is your current model...stick with things that will help you with it. Otherwise you will be like a crack whore in a meth lab bouncing all over the place.

      And I echo the above statements...with what you have outlined, if you follow it, I bet you will have your $40 the end of your second week.

      This stuff really isn't that difficult if you follow some decent strategies and do the required work.

    There is no way you are going to NOT make money if you truly do everything you have listed here. I think it would be impossible not to make money with this plan if you follow it to a T.

    $40 - (I know it is small, don't laugh at me)
    Nobody's going to laugh at you, and if someone does, you don't want advice from them anyway.

    As for your goal and plan, are you kidding me???
    Do you understand how much more you've already done than most newbies, just by creating that plan and goal? Now if you follow through on it, you'll be in the small percentage group of those who actually make money.

    I agree with Jill. You'll likely have made $40 or more well before you hit 40 days.

    Also, there are several threads in the War Room that are worth the price of admission on their own.

    Best of luck to you!
    Cheers
