What I just don't understand?

Hi warriros,

this is probably not the most critical stuff that you have seen today but
it is definately something that gets me thinking everytime I see it.

A lot of well known people on the net, like the most recent example George Brown from Google Sniper talk about how they make 5 figures
every month from clickbank.

But then they show a video proof where they open their mailbox and then
open a clickbank check. And guess what? The check is for about 450 Dollars.

I mean wtf these guys make such high claims and then show their little
checks.
Just don'g get it. What do you think?

    It takes planning and tenacity to make even a few thousand per month, and I pretty much ignore claims like these, as I have better things to do like work on my own plans.

    It is okay to contact me! I have been developing software since 1999, creating many popular products like phpLD.

      Not everyone has 1 account, he may have 20+ for organizational purposes.

      Since were talking about Google Sniper... maybe some sites are adsense in topics that don't have a good product but a ton of traffic, or CPA... private affiliate programs.

    it's hard to say if someone is really making a lot on clickbank... it's possible to have multiple accounts and as a result multiple smaller checks plus if you make above your minimum limit (for those 2 weeks) you get paid every 2 weeks

    overall I think many marketers show fake screenshots anyways... clickbank is definitely not my go to spot for affiliate marketing anyway

      Hey..

      I think that it can be a few different reasons...
      • I think they make the most money from creating and promoting their products to their list.
      • I think they may sell high end affiliate products that may make them a few hundred or may a few thousand per sale
      • They may just be fibbing a bit...
      I tend to take everything with a grain of salt, i have learnt over the last few years that when i purchase a product i don't tend to have any pre-conceived ideas i just take it for what it is....

      An investment in further educating myself for my online business... I have found a couple of guys who truly want to help you succeed online, but boy did it take me a while....

      So i would just say if the product is something you are interested is something you want to get further education on go for it and take a look at it....

      But try not to purchase it because of a great sales page and heaps of hype...

    From what I hear Clickbank gets glitchy with payments if you overuse the same account for awhile, so people open multiple ones.

    It doesn't make sense to me either, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do, I guess.

    Hi I do agree that it could be possible that they had created multiple accounts. It was part of their plan to make that much figures in a month. Every business's success comes from great planning and strategy.
