Is it possible to earn $2500 monthly from affiliate marketing?

I am new to internet marketing. I figured the best way for me to get started is by selling someone elses product.

I do know a nice amount about IM. But this is my first time actually applying what I know.

I figured $2500 is a realistic number to start with.

Also is it possible to be earning that amount within 6 montns?

Any info about Affiliate IM beginners stuff would be appreciated.

    Based on my 4 months of learning and applying IM myself. I don't think its a reasonable goal.

    I do believe that it is possible, but it will take quite a bit of effort in order to get to 42500 in 6 months. It kind of depends on your drive as well as your resources.

      Making $2,500 per month within your first 6 months? Totally possible.

      When I first started out, I too was doing affiliate marketing. I don't know if you're using ClickBank but if you are I recommend you use CBTrends for analytics and information about products.

      CBTrends gives you rough estimates/graphs about certain things like refund rates, etc. Super useful info.

      Best of luck.

    It is absolutely possible. You may have to start working overtime or outsourcing some of the tasks such as article marketing, social networking, etc. Just stay focused, track, test and tweak, then repeat what is working.

    Its not a question of how much can you earn - It's how your going to do it.
    There are many Affiliates who make this amount daily, but they have experience, knowledge and most of all the drive to do it.

    $2500 is definitely possible in 6 months. You just gotta have a proven plan to follow and stick to it. Take action and work on your business consistently and you will see the results.

    Honestbizpro,


    that makes sense. Do people actualy buy products online that would pay that much in commissions?

      Yes they do.

      I have studied human psychology for years - crucial for marketing - and the vast majority believe that the more something costs, the better it is and vice versa.

      Taking everything in to account, even a $97 product will make more profit than a $47 product because although a third less people will buy it - only because they can't afford it - you still make over twice as much so you are ahead.

      Also having less customers means less support, and people who are prepared to pay a high price are serious in the first place, eager to learn, and much less likely to refund.

      In the IM arena of course the big marketers discovered this years ago, and now attach crazy prices to products for that one reason.

      I remember when John Reese launched the original Traffic Secrets product at $995 and everyone thought he was crazy. But he made over $1M in 24 hours.

      Since then prices have been creeping up steadily to over the $5K mark, but are backing off now as people realise there is a fine line.

      The ultimate example is StomperNet where people queued up to pay $795 per month - presented as $26.50 per day - and as far as I know people still queue up to pay that price.

      If you are doing PPC then you must promote products that can make an absolute minimum of $20 commission, $30 is better, i.e. a $67 product which I think, if you are promoting an affiliate product, is the best balance between customer acceptance and making a good profit.

    Hey Ron,

    yep it is definitely possible.
    The amount of cash you earn with
    affiliate marketing is only limited by you
    and your imagination.

    If you can see yourself making that kind of money
    only from affiliate marketing-you will.

    Too far if you are just starting. To do that you need to do sales everyday which is hard even for 1 year old bloggers with a respectable audience.

    I forgot to add..unless you got a clown like John Chow to talk about fake things for you..then its not so good to aim so much to start.

    Totally possible bro. Just stick to one tried-and-tested market promoting one tried-and-tested product through one tried-and-tested traffic tactic as a start. NEVER stray your focus... that is of extreme importance. I learnt that lesson the hard way.

    It's possible, but you will need to work like a dog to make it happen.

    Yes it is totally possible, if you are promoting CB products, keep track of the sales per hops rate, once you know your numbers, it's really easy to know how much work you have to do in order to reach your goal.
    Stick to one strategy only and work on it until it earns you money. And then scale it up, 10x method remember?

    I also think its possible. I think you can make more money offline building blog sites for people. So many do not know what to do so if you do you can help them and charge whatever you want.

    Possible without a doubt, but not a given. Stay focused and perhaps try not to choose a product that is ultra competitive to start with.

    Hmm... As long as I worked hardly with internet marketing the highest income I've ever earned as much as $ 3100 net in those month. I do hope that I earn the same amount monthly but I can't reach it. The earning is still up and down.
