I just made my first $208 - whoop whoop!!

35 replies
OMG I just woke up to $208 commissions. I have not even finished my blog properly yet! I am on such a high

I know this may not seem like alot but to me it might as well be $10,000. I really had alot of self doubt and still feel like I don't know what I doing really.

However, after sitting on the fence for so long I took action - and it's working!

I just wanted to say to all the newbies in here please don't take too long reading, reading and reading. Decide To Decide! It's better to implement something imperfectly and improve that everyday than to wait until your techniques are perfected before you start - it's never going to happen

Thanks to all you kind warriors for your guidance and encouragement, it has helped me untold.

    Congrats! While I have quite a few blogs set up, I have not monetized them. Do you mind sharing what type of blogs you set up?

        That's great to hear! I've been driving traffic to everything but my blogs. Everything is pretty much organic right now, however, I think I may look into monetizing them soon.

          That's what I'm doing at the moment. Want to set up quite a few different niche blogs and want to give SEO a go before I can afford to used paid advertising!
          How many backlinks have you got on each blog yet?

            Nice going Claire

            I remember my first commision, it was way back when LOL, I was selling websites on eBay as a part time money making thing and was doing OK'ish.

            Then I got 2 emails in the same day from Intelimon saying I had made 2 commisions, haha, I remember the first thing I thought was 'CON' and was sceptical of clicking the link to check if it was geniune but sure enough it was for real.

            There is nothing like the first time, nothing like it at all.....

            Here's to many more Claire, good luck

            Lookin

    Hey Claire,

    the first commision is the sweetest one. I bet even
    if it was 2.08$ you'd still be jumping up and down!

    Is it a single order or series of smaller orders?
    It's important to create a stable, predictable, and scalable flow of orders not just a system with rare sudden sales.

    Nevertheless, congrats!

    To the people who are asking her to spell out how she made the money...please give it a rest. If you want to copy & repeat something go buy a WSO. She made the money by working hard. The rest is her business.

    Sorry for being harsh but she need not let everyone know how she did it.

    Hi Guys - thanks for all your kind words

    I was just a little excited this morning and afterlooking at this closer I have realised that these sales must have come from a facebook comment and link - so sorry I really don't think it's my blog

    It's an IM product and the commission earned was from 6 various product sales, which were ordered through a direct link from my fb a/c - this was just a small action I took yesterday (well this morning as it was gone midnight!)

    Anyway I'm happy with the sales and $'s - now back to my blog

    Congrats. I once tried directly advertising on Facebook and went through $300 with no sales at all, so to get $200 in sales from just a link in a post is remarkable. Well Done/

      Hi
      I have spent quite alot of time building a list of 'prospects/customers' within this niche in all my social network a/c's. I have been posting quite regularly in them (no less than once a week) Variable content - informative, inspirational, funny. This content can be either my take on things or I will attach a link to either a landing page, blog, youtube video, current news stream, etc.
      Hope this helps!

    Congratulations on your crisp green. I just love reading these types of posts. It keeps you going when you know there are other folks out there making green too and that different methods work if you follow through and implement them. I'm looking forward to seeing your post about your first grand. No doubt with the pace your going.., it would be that far off. Great job... move forward and don't look back.
