Hi guys,

Well, these last few days have been a very proud time for me. I have been lurking around these forums for a couple of years now, buying this WSO and that WSO. Some I have not been happy with, some I have. But all in all, they have provided me with a valuable insight in the IM world - what works and what doesn't. I very rarely post here, which is a bit selfish, but I didn't feel like I had anything to say of value.

Up until Friday, the best day I have EVER had was an affiliate commission of $12. I tried to replicate it, but didn't work. So I continued digging for ways to improve, or to even make another $12. My head was buzzing was ideas, but to be honest I was lazy and didn't implement anything. I was comfortable with my day job - it was paying the bills and was giving me a semi-social life.

On Feb 17th, I was made redundant from my job as an insurance advisor. I was quite glad to be honest - it was 30 miles from home (60 in total - back and forth) and was costing a lot in fuel. I was also paid for six weeks without having to be at work.

With this break, and having nothing to do as all my friends were at work, I dug out a few old WSO's I had bought. I thought I'd give something a go. I decided to combine a few methods taught in different ebooks that I had and try to make some cash. What should have taken a few hours to do, I was spreading it out over days.

Article marketing and info products was the way I went. I started researching niches a different way (it was taught in a completely different ebook that I had for a completely different method) for my article marketing plan. Once I found a niche in demand, I started writing articles. I submitted them to sites suggested in, again, a completely different ebook. I did this for 2 weeks, and then I started creating very short ebooks myself using information from here and there and then creating backlinks for them. I did this for all of February (missing a day here and there) and most of March.

Back to the original point I'm making - on Friday, I generated $54 in commission and through sales of my own product. On Saturday I did $61 and today I have nothing so far. But the day's not over yet.

I think I'm an example of someone who didn't believe, but just needed a push to make it work. I now feel that I have a business plan in place, and hopefully I can now start to accomplish my goals.

I think what I am doing has potential to make $100 a day - one of my goals is to become a teacher in this area. Eventually I will write my own ebook to help others to achieve similar success. It's just an idea - if I continue to make around $50 a day, I will be happy to pass my knowledge on. I'm no expert, in fact I'm still learning. But it's a start, and I can now plan ahead.



Thanks for reading - sorry if you got bored!

    • Dittos my friend!

      If you take a second and think about it. When you decided to take the time and learn some basis then apply them, you were doing the exact same thing you did some time in the past when you learned how to do your soon to be day job in insurance. It's a great thing but not a miracle. You just got focused, something you forgot about doing long ago in your comfort zone.

      Great job man! Keep doing it.....
