My first affiliate commison!!!!!

46 replies
I logged onto my peerfly account 10 minutes ago and for once in 3 months of trying everyting, my earnings are not $0.00. I got 1.30 from my first conversion, I literally blasted "Teach me how to dougie" full blast and shaked it all off.

I have never been excited and now that I have my first conversion I can stop jumping form wso to wso and stick with this.

I got tired of buying wsos and making nothing for 3 months. So I thought to myself, why dont I improvise for my self. I logged onto my affiliate network got an offer and started thinking of easy ways to promote it. After 5 minutes thinking I made a video and uploaded on Youtube, went to 10 realted forums in the niche and promoted the video without spamming.

While I was getting backlinks from forums my task was to rank on google for the keywords but I got alot of views from these links in the first 24 hours and 1 conversion.

I am so excited, I know what I have to do now, just scale up in hope of ranking as many videos as possible, and even if they dont rank, i realised the power of FREE traffic.

Don't laught at me for being excited over $1.30, this is the motivation I needed.

Good luck to everyone.

    Congrats!

    That's how you start. And while $1.30 may not seem like a lot, they do start to add up pretty quickly.

    The first conversion isnt about the money, its about the accomplishment and knowing that you can do it.

    AWESOME - CONGRATULATIONS!!

    I ran around doing the happy dance when I made my first commission. Now, I have a little button with a $ symbol on it that I press, and it says "KaChing!"

    Love hearing that sound, yep.......pushing that thing every day now, gotta love it!

    by the way, you can get one at KaChingButton.com <--NOT an affiliate link...

    Wishing you all the best.

      Love that idea! I happen to have a little button that makes the coin sound from the old school Mario games. I think I'll start using it for the same thing.

    This is what I've found as well. There isn't a easy way. This is work. I'm glad you choose to be creative and NOT spam. Well deserved. Keep it up!

    No one would laugh at the amount. What's important is that you got a conversion. That means you did something right. Just duplicate that and you'll have more conversions. Congrats.

    Congrats, I remember getting my first sale and it was exciting. Sounds like you have done a fair bit of work to set things up. Have you considered creating your own digital info product and trying to convert that traffic to a sale. You could be converting the $1.30 conversion to a $40. Just a thought.

      I think its slightly early to jump directly onto the product creation band wagon!

      Its no wonder the IM space is filled with rubbish if as soon as you make a $1.30 sale your an expert that wants to teach.

      Lots of affiliates happily make their living direct as an affiliate and don't need to start selling low end offers or even higher priced info to get by.

      In my own opinion it should be a few years of good solid experience before anyone considers even touching product creation. To many captains and no ones steering the ship if you get what am saying!

  • Here's a little advice!

    Instead of sending the traffic from your video directly to the vendor's site send them to a landing page/squeeze page and capture them as a lead for future campaigns then send them to the vendors site.

    This way you can market to them on a regular basis and your not just handing over your one asset in IM over to the vendor which is the BUYING CUSTOMER.

    Good luck.

    Congratulations M.

    I realize you aren't going to paying the bills with 1.30
    but:
    1) you actually now have a live test that your process has a chance
    2) you can start thinking of ways to scale it up and get more traffic
    3) you have an opportunity with that traffic to build a list... so traffic isn't just transient and one time only.

    Despite what you read on here, I have a feeling a lot of people are spending more money on IM than they are earning... So $1.30 is a good start.

    I've gone well beyond that now, and it really feels quite good when things are ticking along on autopilot and you find you pick up $100, $200, or occassionally even $1000 in a day.

    It just takes some time and know how.

    You can do it!

    I don't laught at you at all.

    I remember when I got my first order on Fiverr.

    I created that short report while I was at my grandmother when she was ill. I took my netbook and I decided to create something fast. Well, it took me two hours but finally I created it. The first order came a week later.

    So I just wanted to say:
    Keep doing!
