A day of watching football ruined by...

My first sale! That's right one of my Amazon sites has finally made sale. Two sales to be exact but I'm waiting on one to be shipped. I guess I shouldn't say "finally" as this particular site has only been active for two weeks. Unfortunately the items sold weren't related at all to my website but a sale is a sale and its money in my pocket.

This also ruined my planned day of doing nothing but watching football. Amazing how one sale can spur you on to do a little more work on your projects...

Now where was that post again about scaling operations up again? heh... Next goal would be to make a sale every day.

    Hey, that's awesome!

    Yeah, this happens often with Amazon. A customer goes through your link and ends up buying something else from the site since they happen to be there anyways

    Grats on the sales. I wouldn't mind having my afternoon football games interrupted by making money. As you said, now onto the next goal of a sale a day.

    That what makes the Amazon better than the other programs. almost 30% of my sales are products not related to my niche.

    Sounds good!

    Watching football and making some sales is a good combo to me!

    I'm currently trying to win my fantasy league myself!

    haha

    It is amazing how a little sale or some progress can make you super productive. Keep that hard work up and you'll be making more and more sales in no time.

    I'd be happy if football for me was ruined today by some sales, been a bit of a drought for me the last few days. Lol! Congrats on your sale today! Maybe Monday Night Football can be ruined tomorrow for you too with two more sales!

      This won't happen. Not tonight. My team plays tonight so all work stops at 8:00PM EST for me. Now what I do before that time remains to be seen...

      It's a review site, Amazon Affiliate. I've got 4 sites (3 are up, the 4th goes up later this week) that are all related to a hobby of mine. I'm going to be pushing these 4 for a while to measure their success. I'm not even going to consider starting another project until I've determined that either these sites are somewhat running on automatic or I've completely flopped with them.

    Here is hoping that your every day from here forward is "ruined" as well. Congrats.
