Why Most Newbie CPA/Affiliate Marketer Give Up?

8 replies
Most of the CPA marketers just give up without making a consistent income. I am going to discuss some reason and will provide some solutions to overcome it.

#1 Problem: Always looking for new and secret tricks
Yes that's the number one problem. Most of the newbie think that there is a golden trick and they just need to find that and apply to be the next Millionaire. Hahahahah. It’s not that easy. Of course you can be millionaire but there is a huge learning curve. There is no secret success formula. You just need to take action. To be honest if you are good at research and have plenty of time to study you can get any info online the one problem is it bit time consuming. So you can join or buy some affiliate or CPA coaching program to speed up your journey and know what you should know. That’s totally OK.

Solution:
Make your mind set in proper way. Treat it as a real business where you need time to grow your business. Don’t keep searching for secret tricks. Just keep basics right and take action.


#2 Problem: Want instant result
Most of the Newbie wants this. They want the success overnight and if they don’t get they become seriously frustrated and eventually give up.

Solution: There is a learning curve in every business and work. So expecting instant result on affiliate or CPA marketing is very foolish idea. Yes some people might get it but most don’t. You need to lose first to win. So be patient and keep working.


#3 Problem: Never take action
There are so many newbie out there who just keeping reading and researching to find out success formula. Of course reading and researching is necessary but you need to take the action what you learnt. After taking action you will face some real problems and then you can do research to sort out that real problems. And without taking action you can’t win it.

Solution: Do a moderate level of study or you can join any of top coaching program and the stop reading and start taking action. You will face real problems while taking action then start doing research to solve those problems


Thanks those are some problems I use to face. I would love to hear your problems and solutions as well.

    Great description!
    That is exactly to the point... CPA can easily bring you to Analysis Paralysis, I have been there as well :-) Now I am in the learning curve, still in the tunnel but doing and trying it out.

    Testing and Tracking isn't it?

    Good share buddy - you have summed it up very nicely already in a nutshell there. I would maybe add 2 more things which are also very important:

    1) Having a budget (cash, time or resources) to spend on some kind of traffic to your offer. Without traffic, you just cant make any money regardless of which offer you promote. It's the lifeblood of any campaign.

    2) Willing to take risks. You MUST be willing to jump into the cold water and swim with the sharks at some point. We all take risks, so sometimes it really is just better to "just jump in" and make a calculated decision rather than skinny-dipping on the sidelines contemplating a few more "What If's".

    But great list!

    Great tips, as an affiliate manager, I can see affiliates that are doing half work and I can see affiliates that are working with their soul.... to make the campaign beautiful and converting, they make their landing pages beautiful, they test different ad places, regardless of what successful affiliate do, they think on their own for amazing outcomes

    CPA is all about testing, tracking, determining.

      It depends. I am not CPA guru, Just starting and my main business is Graphic Design Service and Now taking CPA seriously and being graphic Designer I am getting some advantage. But I was in a bad situation when I used spend all of my day just researching and researching without taking an action.
      Thanks
