You're welcome.

Messaged you on Skype - You've got funds

Thanks for taking the time to post - many newcomers hold back because we're "scary" so it's great to see a new guy joining in.

Warm regards,
Andy

jefferyjansen · 24th Sep 2011, 08:13 PM

I would upgrade or send out post cards to potential clients.

Nick Walker · 24th Sep 2011, 08:35 PM

Outsource Articles. Definitely.

1 - Get a press release written

3 - Get some articles written
4 - Pay for some new domains
5 - Pay for hosting
6 - Get some graphics done for your site/blog
7 - Buy a theme from somewhere like templatemonster.com
8 - Get some SEO/SEM work done (link building, commenting, bookmarking, article distribution etc.)
9 - Buy a new tool for for syndicating your content (PRs, articles, rss, bookmarks, audio, video etc..)
10 - get a video created
11 - get some audio transcribed from your content
12 - Pay for an advert for your product in an ezine
13 - $50 worth for PPC traffic to your squeeze page/offer
14 - Buy membership to a useful information site (there are plenty of PLR site like for example fellow warrior Martin Avis's site at KickstartPLR) or graphics/minisites etc..
15 - Pay for people on Fiverr.com to do jobs for you (I like to get fun videos made)
16 - Get some ebooks about your favourite IM subject - WSO section has plenty of options so you should be able to get several products about an area that interests you for $50
17 - Buy a couple of products you've been advertising as an affiliate but didn't actually buy for yourself yet so you can make your review even better and more personalised.
18 - Send the money to someone you care about who needs it more than you.
19 - Donate the money to a charity you feel strongly about supporting.
20 - Give it to a random warrior/stranger to pass on the love and make someone's day.

to your success

Andy

Not a lot of humour in your list either

larrydcook · 30th Sep 2011, 09:49 AM

Ok been in the warrior forum less than a month, already asking myself why did it take so long? I see the need to upgrade & will be doing so soon! So I would upgrade to take the remainder of the money & do a thread ( when I am aloud) & sponsor someone in an upgrade! This is a great place to be!

Terry Rossi · 30th Sep 2011, 10:09 AM

I would probably create a Facebook Page and run a campaign as it seems to be the cheapest way to get any revenue back.

Silentkiller1 · 2nd Oct 2011, 12:36 PM

What a newbie can think? I will get a domain and a good theme.

SergioFelix · 4th Oct 2011, 10:15 AM

War Room Membership and your own .com domain name (in case you still don't have it!) ;-)

Matthew Shane Roe · 4th Oct 2011, 04:28 PM

I would perform research and write a product to sale.

I would then take $10 to outsource for an ebook cover through a WFH thread, odesk, fiverr, etc..

I would take the remaining $40 and open a WSO generating affiliates through Digi Results and the various skype chat groups.

After each sale - I would then invest my profits into the creation of a new product and start my funnel to build my business even more.

ronswagger · 4th Oct 2011, 11:58 PM

i would spent first $37 for the war room membership as i am just striving to make those $37 and from the left $13 i would buy a domain and hosting

IamTJM · 5th Oct 2011, 02:34 AM

Do what I usually do and use it for backlinking and also towards PPC campaigns

The idea is that people who read this thread will get some useful/interesting/funny insights into what might be a good way to spend $50 on their IM business.

No catch. This is not some gimmick or trick and I'm not about to launch a WSO that relates to this - it's just me giving back to this amazing community.

Andy

I need the $50 I will use it wisely.

jbtooloo · 8th Oct 2011, 04:52 PM

War room access no doubt!

I learn so much from this site...

Disruption · 9th Oct 2011, 12:42 AM

I would invest in the War Room and also use it to advertise along with provide some of the money for my friend who is in the hospital right now who is in need of funds.

markhimeb · 10th Oct 2011, 04:57 AM

Given that I already have my own hosting and domain names, I would do the following two things:
1. Create a killer sales page (FREE)
2. Bring ppc traffic to my page.
3. Sell my product.
4. Buy War Room membership to get some ideas on how to transform my product selling site to an Empire.

ilvys · 10th Oct 2011, 07:02 AM

i will buy some pizza and cola

mianrehan · 10th Oct 2011, 09:12 PM

i would spent these many on online job

Gary_Bacchetti · 11th Oct 2011, 12:22 PM

Buy Justin Bieber a muzzle.

Ajay Tiwari · 21st Oct 2011, 07:42 AM

I selected war room membership in poll but if it's possible to create wordpress plugin i would like to do that and launch a WSO ... I have a good plugin idea but i think it wont be possible to create it in $50 ...

supershoesclub · 21st Oct 2011, 08:26 AM

I do want to hire a writter to write some quality artciles for me.and i will submit these ones to artcile directories.of course, pay for the high pr directories to be listed in featured listing.

Renee Huggins · 21st Oct 2011, 08:28 AM

I'd outsource a few things

I liked everyone else's answers... gave me a few ideas

Morganzolar · 21st Oct 2011, 08:56 AM

I know there's already a winner, but there's been some good advice on here - I would defo invest in a second nich (domain / hosting), and probably with a little left over for graphic design (that's what I'm the worst at in website design).

Cheers, great to see someone helping out a newbie!

MZ

ZesiMedia · 21st Oct 2011, 09:11 AM

I will buy warrior membership

Blinking · 21st Oct 2011, 04:08 PM

I would use it to buy access to the War Room and help out my website with some new tools

apolwar · 22nd Oct 2011, 12:21 AM

If I have 50 bucks, I would probably spend it on my tools for business.

As someone who is new to this kind of business, I am still finding my way through and need all the help I can get from this forum and people who have been in many business experiences and made great strides in the business.

And if one of those tools is having access to the war room, then its one step closer to my goal of having a good online business.

Laissez Faire · 22nd Oct 2011, 06:21 PM

I went with War Room access.

Robert Michael · 22nd Oct 2011, 06:27 PM

I would donate it to people who need it more than I do on RAOP - Restoring Faith in Humanity, One Slice at a Time

hanakuza · 24th Oct 2011, 07:18 PM

not sure where this falls, but id pay for SEO to make my site rank higher in search engines. other than that maybe advertising i guess

ry6782010 · 24th Oct 2011, 11:18 PM

I'd put it into my bank account and save it most likely. I'd probably use it for my business later on down the road however.

WarriorFormula · 29th Nov 2011, 01:30 AM

Congratulations, I hope you'll conduct similar contests in the future.

hazim799 · 29th Nov 2011, 09:12 PM

total123 · 30th Nov 2011, 08:54 PM

i'm still a newbie in internet marketing and for starters it's really hard when you only have a pc and an internet and with no investments.

there are offers in the internet for tutorials and software for 47$ and a 50$ would be a great help.

as of now i'm currently in pay to click sites hahaha

cyclopscarl · 3rd Dec 2011, 09:14 AM

I would use it to upgrade some of my income earning online accounts into premium.

areoo · 20th Dec 2011, 04:42 PM

I am going to use it for my ppc campaign that i dream to start ages ago

hbhanot · 20th Dec 2011, 06:00 PM

With $50 I will buy 3 New Domains.

sam m · 20th Dec 2011, 06:03 PM

pay my bills
buy something to eat. lol

onlinemarketingtrends · 21st Dec 2011, 04:26 AM

Movies with my GF, hell yeah

Marci Ann Aurila · 22nd Dec 2011, 12:24 AM

well, lets see. I already have war room access,

here's what i would do with it: I would buy a domian name from GoDaddy, get hosting for 1 penny for a new account at host gator, buy a ssl certificate, set up a targeted fb fanpage iwht a reveal tab and optin form. add content, then set up more content through hootsuite. then buy targeted ads in fb. get people to my page, offer them a free thingy whch has a link to the paid thingy in it.

then make money

then pay someone to type for me since there seems to be a permanent disconnect between my brain nad my fingers. lol, jk

Marci Ann Aurila · 22nd Dec 2011, 12:25 AM

it's worth every penny to be in the war room.! I would not give it up for anything!

NickSway · 22nd Dec 2011, 02:36 AM

I'll tell you when I make it on autopilot in about an hours time...

Absolute Logo · 24th Dec 2011, 11:59 PM

It seems like $50 can't get you much anymore. I got a $50 gift card to a sporting goods store and walked out empty handed. I circled the store at least 2 times and didn't find anything worth buying for $50!

Micah Medina · 25th Dec 2011, 02:48 AM

I'd buy so many Klondike bars...

evilsaigon · 25th Dec 2011, 03:35 AM

I'd purchase some advertising and traffic, and War Room access if there's enough left over.

hashif16 · 25th Dec 2011, 05:42 AM

I would start Google adwords targeted PPC campaign for my website..

Rankx · 25th Dec 2011, 09:49 AM

I personally would use it to get some Blog Posting done and boost my site in Google first page, as I have done before. That is exactly what I am going to do next time I spend money on SEO. But for $50 this is also what I can get.
100 Social Bookmarking
100 Directory Submissions
100 Classified Ad Posting

emilydesozamy · 25th Dec 2011, 11:51 AM

I will spend it for SEO because I have new site and need to rank it up...

anes amrani · 25th Dec 2011, 12:14 PM

I would start my business by buying a hosting account and starting IM business

freight · 25th Dec 2011, 03:43 PM

Well done warmchords - How about you revisit this post in a few months and let us know how it is all going. Andy - Very nice gesture mate ! Looking forward to the next contest ! I know I am late however this post gave me a good idea I am going to take 50 bucks and get 10 video testimonials from fiverr then blend them all together on camtasia for a cracker self made video to start off 2012. All the best warriors !

gstevew · 25th Dec 2011, 04:58 PM

I have no idea, but it just so happens I have $50 in CenturyLink credit on a VISA debit card. I'm so behind the times on everything, I'm just don't know where to use it!

money fan · 25th Dec 2011, 06:45 PM

Well right now I am saving for (my first) website. all I need is $50 more and ill have the right amount

of cource ill buy it from a warrior to help the community like you
