First sale!!! What a feeling!!!

45 replies
After a what's seems an eternity of hard work I have finally made my first ever online sale!

I checked my computer last night and there it was my first order!!

I also managed to capture the email addresses of people who didn't buy as well, so feeling good at the moment.

Ok so it is only 1 sale but I am seriously grateful for it and it should provide a platform for me to grow from.

If there are any other warriors out there who are struggling, please stick at it because eventually it will come.

    Haha, congratulations!

    I remember my first $0.01 from AdSense--I was actually excited!

    There have been many more since then... hopefully you'll have many more as well.

    Well done!

    Great thinking on your part to start with a list!

    Just remember to add value in your e-mails to your list. Try not to bombard them with too many sales messages.

    Anyways, congratulations...and keep the momentum going!

    Hi Gwuido65,

    Congrats on you first sale! I can rembember that feeling like it was yesterday!
    What an INCREDIBLE feeling!

    Now, what you need to do, check out where that sale came from, or where that lead came from (tracking is very important) and repeat that process!

    Talk later,

    Elmar

    I swear, making sales has become like a drug to me! I can't imagine my life without it anymore.

    I think even if I won the lottery, I would still need this

    1 sale is enough to give motivation.

    It means that it works. Give bigger momentum.

    I also already felt like that before. It's good!

    Nothing like that first sale. Keep up the enthusiasm. More will come. Just remember to reinvest that cash into your business and not go out and spend it all in one place. Here's to continued success and oodles of cash in your future. Great job.

    Well done! its a big motivator for sure. I will never forget my first commission back in 2004, I was cautiously putting some time into building my first site, as in the back of my mind I thought that there was no way that affiliate marketing would work. Then Bam! I woke up one morning to find $62 in my CJ account. I soon got my butt into gear after that day.

    Congratulations... you will get many more.

    After two years I am still amazed and excited every day I get sales -

    Ironically IM for me is the hardest way to earn money, but it feels like easy money once it comes!!

    Congrats man,

    The best feeling in the world is to see the first sale
    You feel like you're going to be a millionaire because you cracked the code.
    Now is the time to investigate from where the sale came from, and see if you can duplicate the success.

    Wish you the best of luck,

    Mike G

    Well done Guido65!
    It's an important 'breakthrough' - lots of newbies find it hard to believe it's possible, but that first sale tells your subconscious that of course it's possible!

    Keep on doing what you're doing, and refine as you go along.

    Thanks for posting!
