by Jay norestin Banned
66 replies
I think we should have a thread like this just to keep people motivated...
I should start.. Im averaging about $800/Day Someday over $1K my main source of traffic is PPV and Media Buys..

Im currently working on a major SEO project that might even triple this income in 3 months...

How much are you making right now?

Edit: I started having success when I was skyping with one one of the top IM (can't say name) and he told me that he was making $100K a week.. i wanted to shoot myself cause I felt extremely stupid.. that's when I made a decision to focus on one thing and get better at it.. thats what he told me.. I made this thread because I believe it can inspire someone.
P.S. There's no time and Space in Affiliate Marketing.. You just have to find the G-Spot and everything else will follow through

Somebody ask for proof... Heres a recent paypal shot....

    Jay. Interesting! Is that revenue or profit?

    Edit: I'll spill... revenue wise I'm getting about $600/month, all autopilot/licenses so don't have to work directly for it, but I've learned a lot and I feel I have the skills now to increase this to a good amount. It's a bit embarassing compared to other people on here but I pride myself on getting there slowly. In the fable, the tortoise eventually overtakes the hare

        It's a social conditioning thing, most likely.

        I find it pretty rude to directly ask someone how much they make. This thread is a bit different because he asked the general populace so no one is on the spot to answer and because this forum is, after all, all about entrepreneurship and money is a good indicator/measurement of success.

        Those two things make it not especially rude in my eyes, but I can see why some people would be hesitant to share their income and why they'd grow a little wearisome of the constant outlandish income claims followed by the "and here's my special report to show you how I do it!"

        IMO, there's never any reason for bickering with a stranger on a forum though. Life's too short and there's always something more productive that can be accomplished in the time it takes to "win" a flamewar (as if there are ever any winners...haha)

              He makes nearly $36,000,000 a year, and the one thing he told was to "focus on one thing and get better at it"?

              Yeah, it's warm and fuzzy, but it's not very "concrete"...surely, you learned other strategies and techniques from him?

      I would speculate it's because the OP actually answered his own question. The guy in the other thread didn't.

      All these conversations go the same way.

      On the contents page of the forum, right underneath this folder's title, it says "Where We Talk About Making Money".

      But still, there are invariably people who are so sensitive about it, and object to it so much, that instead of simply ignoring threads that don't interest them, they have to come in and post, to tell us all (directly or indirectly) that they don't think the question should even be asked at all.

      I'm up to about $10,000 per month now, after a little over 2 years, of which the first 4 months or so were a very sticky and unproductive start.

    People don't normally respond to these threads other than to tell the asker that their income is simply no one's business. It is rather a personal question to ask people and to expect them to post their incomes on a public forum for the sake of "motivation" ... or the sake of simply being nosy is rather silly.

    Oh, and FYI, I make roughly 5 Billion a Week.

      I make about a buck three-eighty a week.

      Anybody wanna lend me some cash so I can pay for my Winnebago?

      Seriously, while I have no problem with people asking or even disclosing
      their income, I sometimes wonder what the point of these threads is.

      If I know that John Doe is making $1 Million a year, does that mean that I
      can too? Does it mean I'm a failure if I'm not? If I'm making more than
      somebody does that make me hot stuff?

      Donald Trump probably makes more than everybody in this forum combined.

      Does that make us all failures?

      Like I said, I have no problem with these threads. If people are curious or
      want to brag or whatever, hey, it's their dime.

      But when the smoke clears, does all the talk really inspire anybody?

      I mean do we really need to hear that people are making money online
      to be inspired? Isn't it kind of a no brainer that somebody is making
      money online considering all the money we spend?

      I mean somebody's collecting it.

      It's easy to say, "Oh, this is just to inspire people."

      Folks, all I need to do is look at this very forum and a guy by the name
      of Allen Says to be inspired.

      One guy...making $1,000 per day JUST from the banner ads.

      That's not even counting the WSO income and everything else.

      Inspiration?

      If anybody here needs inspiration then I think the first thing they need to
      do is check their pulse to make sure they're alive.

      Now if you don't mind, I'm going to stare at the buck three-eighty I made
      last week.

      Maybe I can scrounge up enough nickels to buy me a pack of Magic Cards.

        I remember quite a few threads from you where you said you make about 10K a month but you had to work your tail off to get there. You probably make more now because this was at least 2 years ago.

        You might not know this but those type of posts were the reason I didn't quit after failing so much. I knew you weren't bs'ing us when you said you made that kind of money and that was inspiring to me especially after reading so many sales letter where they only talk about millions of dollars and then also reading that over 98% of people that start IM will fail.

        I think one of the big problems with society is that we don't talk about money. Money, believe it or not is a very important aspect of our lives and after all it's just money. It's paper that we all need to survive but we wont talk about it..

        I now make just over 10K per month and I am damn proud if it. Making money online really isnt that hard once you figured it out and I hope this thread will inspire at least one newbie who's reading all the hype from this industry and wonder if there are really a good honest living to be made online and the answer is a definite yes. Push for it, do whatever it takes because let me tell you, once you start making great money while only working a few hours per day and realize just how great this internet dream is you will be damn glad you pushed through all those hard times.

        Cheers

          I've made 6 figures a year since 2006, my monthly income varies a lot though because of the way I operate.

          One thing I've mastered is list building, I don't think there are many people on this forum who have the depth of understanding that I do, when it comes to lists.

          I'm not making a full time income yet but I know that I'll get there with consistent effort.

    0.

    I find such a thread useful if the people give their accurate amounts as even if they are doing it for bragging rights that is up to them, but it is useful to get a yardstick on the learning curve esp. if they say how long they have been doing it and how long it took to go from 0 to their current figure.

    That way you also get a better idea of who to take advice from.

        Maybe you should re-read my reply. If after being at this forum itself
        and seeing the income this one man generates, you need motivation, what
        you really need is to have your pulse checked.

        IMO, these threads motivate nobody.

        The ones making money already don't care and the ones struggling only
        get more discouraged from hearing all the success stories which...

        Can in no way be verified for accuracy.

        In short...these threads are pointless.

        But like I said, I have no problem with people asking or responding.

        I guess it's a way (not a good one) but a way to kill a few minutes in
        your day.

    Don't compare your earnings with others. I always like to compete with myself. That means if i am earning 2k this month, Next month I will wake up on every morning to increase that by 20% or something. This is a great way to increase your earnings. If my earning start growing at 20 % i will try to compete with my growth rate.
    Example :

    For month 1 : $2000
    For month 2 : $2400 for 20% growth rate with base earnings month 1
    For month 3 : $2880 for 20% growth rate with base earnings month 2
    For month 4 : $3744 for 30% growth rate with base earning month 3

    This is what i learn from a seminar which i attended.

    I don't blame people for asking and I don't blame people for refusing to tell. But if you refuse to tell, don't get offended...since they aren't DIRECTLY asking you in the first place.

    For me, I've been at this since 2005. I make about $150K per year. I COULD make about $325K per year. And when I say "I could", it's not some pie in the sky dream. I could run this business through dropshipping and keep the difference. But I choose to employ my father as a partner in the business, and we manufacturer/ship our own products...plus we split the profits up.

    As I actually write $325K, it makes me question why I do it..haha. But the truth is, I do it because I literally don't have to do anything for the $125K.

He lost a big chunk of his former business in the late 90's and was always worried about retirement and making ends meet. I thought if I could grow the business, I could have him run it for me.

      Great story Dave. I'd love to be able to help my folks out one day too with something like this. Good on ya!

        I can pay electric, auto insurance and cell phone monthly. It's taken almost 3 years to get to this point. Let's see... when I can add credit card and rent I can quit my stupid job.

      Yes these threads do motivate people, even if they are all lies.

      Belief is a very powerful phenomenon. Religion is based entirely on belief.

      For proof please see "Placebo effect". Its just one example of what belief can do to the human mind.

    I'm inspired since I have not made any money. Reading this thread reminds me that one can make money online am just not there yet.
    I am at the point where I will concentrate on being an earner not so much time learning. 2011 will be my year to see IM income.
    Looking forward to posting my online earning even if it's just a dollar!

    I consider myself knowing very little about IM, but I have a few sites now that all sell products that I started recently opening up to affiliates, and I'm in the 6-7 figures/year area.

    I joined WF specifically to learn how to open up my products to an affiliate system and how that whole process works.

    One thing I've noticed with WF is that an extremely large amount of all postings are people trying to sell things to other WFers, and those things apparently will help them sell things to other WFers. Seems very redundant and very unuseful overall. Also there are a lot of people who are using obvious auto forum posters here that respond to posts with "Interesting" or "LOL" or "Awesome idea". I'm really trying to see the value in these forums here, but it really just looks like a place where "marketers" will market to WF members, without much useful content relating to marketing to the world overall. These people then celebrate when they make their first $10, or are able to crack $1000 in a month. Like I said, I'm new when it comes to IM, but with what little I know, and comparative to my peers, I still have many days over $50k profit in a day. These profits aren't because of any tactics explained on WF, they exist for another, super easy, mystery formula nobody seems to mention: Having a good idea and energy to pursue it.

    I joined these forums to see if, via the concepts of IM, I could increase that, but these forums are so full of junk it just doesn't seem to be a valuble use of time.

    Does anybody else notice that?

      Totally agree. Send me a PM if you'd like to discuss IM on a one-to-one basis without the "noise".

    Very Inspiring. One day I'll be in the same position.
    That's my dream. 9-5/family getting in my way of progressing fast.
    Still make an extra income from IM every month and grateful for that.

    How much are you making right now?

    Edit: I started having success when I was skyping with one one of the top IM (can't say name) and he told me that he was making $100K a week.. i wanted to shoot myself cause I felt extremely stupid.. that's when I made a decision to focus on one thing and get better at it.. thats what he told me.. I made this thread because I believe it can inspire someone.
    P.S. There's no time and Space in Affiliate Marketing.. You just have to find the G-Spot and everything else will follow through

    Somebody ask for proof... Heres a recent paypal shot....

    Been doing IM for 4 months now, and I've been pulling about $3k a week. IMO, owning and selling your own original products is the way to go. :-)

      I'll play because I want new people to know it's genuinely possible and you don't have to be in the IM niche or put up a bunch of PPC sites. (Nothing wrong with the IM niche, I will be entering it soon.)

      All of my current online income is from one site selling a non-software digital product that I developed.

      I launched late July and my first sale was two days later. (Note: "Coming Soon" page was up over a year so search ranking was already page one, usually top 3.)

      As of 11/30, I've averaged just over $900/mo. I'm on pace to break $2000 this month. It would be closer to $3k but I'm adjusting for the holidays since my product doesn't lend itself to holiday buying.

      I'm projecting over $4000 for January and up from there.

      I'm in a tiny niche and my average sale has been under $60 net PP fees.

      Aside from hosting, my only current expenses have been about $15 in adwords, although I went through a free $75 credit in about 10 weeks. Also, I recently started a Bing/Yahoo campaign with a $200 credit I received with the purchase of a $25 book.

      Total expenses to date have been about $200, which includes hosting to next summer, page design software, and the expenses noted above.

      Product & site development was a good month or two of concentrated work but the time requirement now is limited to driving traffic, SEO and the occasional customer service email or phone call.

      The truth is, if I weren't so obsessive about looking for new traffic sources, SEO, checking stats and customer service, I could easily manage the business in less than an hour a day.

      So with all that time on my hands, I plan to do what the shampoo bottle says, "lather, rinse, repeat."

      The bottom line is, it's not all BS. You can make real money online and it doesn't have to be all about selling IM info products, affiliate programs or physical goods.

    I really think one can never make enough...but to make $100k a week, that is insane. That would be a million bucks in 2.5 months?
