My First $365 Check, Finally!

54 replies
Hey Guys!

I am very happy today!

Guess what? I have got my check, my first check from my internet marketing efforts! $365 from selling contents on gig sites.

I spent 3 months reading and learning internet marketing, but more I read more confused I got.

Finally, I got lucky when clicked another warrior's link in their signature. I don't remember their forum id but their alias is richwildhusband in that ebook that I downloaded.

This course was about selling info products on microjob sites. I followed exact pattern for making offers and promoting them across the internet to get noticed

Most of the gigs sold worth $5, I receieved $4 and my bank stripped another $0.35 per transaction which felt really bad in the begining

After completing my 100 sales I decided to withdraw and here it is, $365 in my hands. This check will take few days to clear, but I will wait. :rolleyes:

I wanted to share this excitement that I have, and wanted to ask your tips on earning BIG from gig sites.

I registered 3 domains when I was reading other IM course to start Clickbank/CJ products pre-selling websites. But when I started to earn from selling gigs, I gave up that long-term business model.

Is it bad? I read so many advices from senior members saying that if someone is earning from some source he should stop focussing on other sources and excel in that specific earning source to earn more and more.

Anyway, who is coming to my party?

    nice, you know the saying if you can make just $1 online you can make $100

    if you can make $100 online you can make $100,000

    I still remember the first $1 I made online, and that one was the hardest, trust me when i say it gets easier from there.

    Here is cheers to more sales to come.

      Yep, as they say, scale it up. It works when you do this.

    Well done for sticking at it. I remember the first time time I made money online it's an awesome feeling.

    With the advice you received I think what they meant was this:

    stick with one method until you become competent and proficient before moving on to other methods. Do not do what most people do which is continuously jump from one thing to the next.

    Do you have an upsell service that costs reasonably more in place. If you do, that $365 will easily turn into $2000 for less work.

    Congrats! Keep the flow going... :-)

    Those who buy from you, do you have them in a list? Upsell & and downsell them.
    Talk to them, see how you can help them... and make more $$$ from them..

    It's easier to sell to those who bought from you before.

      As other warriors have suggested, create upsells, collect
      contact info, and keep selling!

        Hey Whodeeni,

        Thanks for sharing your tips

        I have upsells followed by most of my "shiny" gigs and between the download and upsell pages there is a "gateway" where buyer has to insert their email anyway.

        My 3 months experience has taught me that buyers don't like this kind of behavior.:confused:

        75% of my list subscribers unsubscribed after receiving their download link via email.

        The money I made is 100% from my gigs sold for $5 nobody was interested in my OTO Even when I was giving very high quality products bundled with BONUSES. I kept receiving messages asking me about the direct download link.

        Guys I am not saying don't add upsells to your gigs, not discouraging you at all but frankly it didn't work for me and I wonder :confused:

        Anyway, bringing in swarm of hungry buyers is one hell of a job. Took me 2 months to boost my sales volume.

        I can summerize the whole gig selling profits in a post which everyone can easily understand and follow.

        Good luck,

    Hey SARahman,

    That's awesome news

    I'll never forget the first time I made money online. I made it offering my services as a writer here on the WF, in my first two days as a writer I made $132, that number still sticks in my head, and it reminds me that anything is possible online if you do something about it and take yourself out of your comfort zone.

    Used car salesmen are always taught the best time to sell your next car is immediately after you just sold a car.

    The same holds true for Internet Marketing. I would recommend putting a picture of that check where you can see it every day. Right next to it have the same check but with an extra zero inserted right before the period. Make that your goal. Good luck achieving it.
