$10k per DAY on Twitter... come on.

Ha!

Man.....Twitter better hire him since they can't even make money
with their own platform.

Can say a lot of things ....but that does not mean sh**
without proof.

RIGGGHTTTT!!!

Doesn't seem to add up for me either. If it's affliate marketing then he must be selling $15K a day on average net which is $95K a week! That's must make him one of the affliate earners online. And working on average's again he must make like 2000 sales a week and add 80,000+ new tweets per week!
Maybe I'm missing the golden goose with twitter here!!

He's pimping Maria Andros' new course. index

Probably some MLM'er.

I think what I've come to realize about this is that it's not something to monetize directly. It's a much better platform for building your brand, connecting with customers and driving traffic to something that can be monetized. And when it's used in that way, it can be powerful.

Didn't check his followers but now I'm more confused. Really, really don't get his figures!

Rich

Actually I read on John Chow's blog that he made around $300 in a day with twitter promotion. A little less through a blog post and a little more sending an email to his list.

My conclusion is this, Chow is the real deal, not the hypermollah you can find around on the Internet.


I'm not wasting any time when I cant see evidence of any $10K a days.

That's how I --Rolll

Shannon,

Glad to see an experience tweeter reply.

I know right? if it's a product that he launched to his followers on twitter with which he had an outstanding relationship, I can see 10k in a day, that's not so far fetched.

But 5-10k a day every day...

Andrew

I can see it being in the realm of possibility if he has some blackhat tools going on -- auto account creation/following/posting etc.

Generate a few hundred (thousand?) accounts, each automatically generating followers, each automatically posting X times per day.

But I can't see it happening from a single personal account.

And while it might work for him right now, you can bet by the time he starts selling his "system" that the doors of opportunity will be closed and he'll be onto the next thing while all the suckers waste time trying to make a few bucks a day.

Twitter traffic converts pretty poorly as a rule.

I think it's the short attention span that the medium encourages.

Quack. IMO.

(I have 10K followers, and I make sales fairly regularly via Twitter. I'm playing with a couple of ideas on Twitter and they look like they'll pan out, but they're more like $100 per month on autopilot. Is it scalable? Sure. To 10K per day? Not realistically possible.)

You apparently aren't using it right, either, Michael, since I'm making $100 kazillion per second. And I'll show you how to do the same for just $1,000.00. PM me for payment details

~tHANK YOU Andy

Yeh I totally agree with this.

What a time waste!.. just move on and focus positive energy on your own projects and success!!

AMEN Andy

You preach it how it is Brother... onto my Masterplan now!

That's not actually true.

well maybe on the 101 version - in Body Language 102 you learn that people vary and that some people go left where others go right and you need to calibrate each person to know.

hey, if you have the followers, anything is possible, personally i helped raise a few K for waterislife.com using twitter alone with under 1,000 followers.

why dont you just follow him on twitter or buy his product. I have not seen the video cos im at work. BUt if he's offering a money back guarantee then just get whatever hes trying to sell or try contact him.

Right after he said his number one strategy, he used the words "only strategy". I think thats what makes it all twitter.

I also know it's not from contacts or at least that's not what they're saying it's from.

In other material he's said it's from affiliate marketing, and it's every day, so not a JV deal or consulting gig kind of thing.

At the end of the day I know it's not what it appears, and I know people always inflate their income stats and that ultimately, it doesn't matter, we don't have to buy it, we don't have to fall for it.

The thing is, WE all say that, we know better, we're experienced.

What I really object to, is what this does to the industry as a whole (even if it has always happened), by creating a bunch of people (newer than us, who don't know better yet) who think things like this are possible, and should be aimed for.

It hurts everyone who teaches online marketing. Every teacher who's ever gotten a weird refund request, had people wonder why "it didn't work for them" when they hadn't given it a chance, had a chargeback, or wasted their time trying to help people who thought they should be making thousands in days. It effects you.

This kind of thing is why that happens, and that's what upsets me.

Andrew

Google made nada for like 5 years and now they own vast amounts THE INTERNET

Exactly.

If we looked at it like that - even I could say I made $10k from Twitter because I've made that from the people and business I've found via Twitter.

Mark Joyner offered to endorse my upcoming physical book after I met him because of Twitter - There's a lot of ways to be able to make a hyped-up statement to try and impress people, but it's not doing them any favours by manipulating the facts to fit that type of cause. But then, I'm guessing we've accepted that this isn't all about helping others anyway.

Selling shovels and selling 'the sizzle' is what many people consider to be marketing.

Andy

I guess the best way to find out would be to follow them on Tweeter.

Hi guys,

I can see this post has gathered a lot of interest!!! Remember things aren't always what they seem to be. I don't know if i believe the 10 thousand a day figure but in the video he was portrayed as a newbie....at least thats the impression i got. If you guys are curious go to you tube and punch in grungey10. I think this is the same guy who was in the video for sure. grungey10 is his video channel. He definitely mastered You Tube in gaining video views and had to build up quite a list in the dating niche!!! One of his videos has over 30,000 views. He's very good in front of a camera! His You Tube channel is dated back to Sept of 2007. I'm sure with twitter he hit the ground running right from the get go. Who knows how many different niches he's in!! Didn't he mention something about selling a service in the video...thats all i'm saying....use your imagination!!! lol. I give him credit he's really leveraging the social media thing no doubt.

Bill

Nobody making that much would tell the world about it. Why would he ruin his cash cow, just to sell some ebooks? It's hype. Unfortunately the precedent that IM hype is good was set long before this kid came around.

Yep...the devil is in the detail. There are lots of people who can say they make 10K from their job (but not every day); so without the details being revealed it's all just speculation.

cheers,
James Pateman

10k one day from a big launch with the help of lots of others maybe but 10k a day, I don't think so!

Mike

I have no idea if this guy makes that much or not, but if he is sending traffic from Twitter to his blog and they are signing up for his list then he is doing the same thing everyone else is doing. Other people may be getting their traffic from PPC, search engines or article marketing and some of them may be making 10,000 a day, he just chooses to get his traffic from Twitter.

So I say if other people are making 10,000 a day, but getting their traffic from other places then it is possible for him to make that much getting his traffic from Twitter. I am not saying he does make that much, but I can see how it would be possible. All I can say for sure is I don't make that much. :-)

Clint

Wow, wow, wow....the only way you could make that much is if you were an AIG exec.

Really? How do you make money off twitter because a lot of people do not understand why, explanation would be nice I drive a relatively good amount of traffic to my blog but no that much. In response to the 10k per day. Unbelievable :p

That's not bad, but you realize that is under 500M per month. When your daughter looks you in the eyes, and says; "Daddy, can we buy Canada", and you have to say no...how does that make you feel?

I remember how my little girls eye's lighted up the day I cam home and told her; "Daddy just bought Canada" (a big chunk of change with the extended 3 year on site warranty).

My six year old little girl, went on to say but Daddy, there are only 6 Billion people in the world and for you to take home "before taxes" (at which point I told her to watch her language...daddy doesn't like to hear words like "taxes"), that is about $150 every month for every person on earth.

I told her, Daddy is a social media guru

She then says, "Butt daddy, you only get a few hundred views per month"

I then kicked her sorry *** out of the house. I told her with no reservation. Daddy's time is valuable and he doesn't deal with skeptics, when you buy Daddy's ebook "6 easy Steps to 13 figures per month" (only 19.95), you will understand how Daddy does it, and you can come back home.

I am a loving Daddy, but we have to nip this type of negativity in the bud. First they start asking doubting questions, then they start asking for proof, and where does it end? Daddy don't play dat!

Why do people seem to believe its hard to create multiple accounts.....I've got over 400. It's not rocket science...

Exactly. Twitter is networking, and just like physical networking, there are people who act like jerks and don't make a cent, and there are people who create a huge following and make deals happen

$10k in a day is certainly possible. "Twitter traffic" can convert. Sometimes very well. But to focus on the tool or the tactic is missing the point.

Great points.

You also have to see what intention is behind those who are stating that twitter is a viable source of traffic. In 99percent of the cases it's individuals selling a $Muliple K course ( or $20 ebook or other) on how twitter is a great source of free traffic.

If you view the metrics of almost anyone, the amount of true followers appear to be 1/10th of 1 percent on average (with celebrities pulling off 1-3% follow through...based on viewable metrics).

As you stated most "follower" numbers don't really "follow", and are just "presented" to prove a point of "guruosity" to lend credibility to the individual in question ebooks/courses...nothing more.

I don't know very much about Twitter or IM, yet, but for a number of years now, studying lying behavior has been a hobby of mine. I watched the video a dozen times or so to establish a baseline, especially on the "control questions", so I could note the deviations. This gentleman is probably slightly inebriated and his "tells" are magnified as a result. I won't bore you with all the details, just the results of my analysis...

1) He is telling the truth about his 10k day.
2) He isn't making all of this money directly from Twitter, but is willing to play along with the interviewer and let us think he is. This is very uncomfortable for him and he is sending out distress signals.
3) He is likely very successful, but not all from Twitter.
4) The interviewer is the instigator.

BS or not, believe it or not, I sure see a lot of limiting
belief systems in this thread. My BS alarm goes off for a lot of
claims, HOWEVER:

What if I told you I could make $18 million in one day with a
product launch? Would you believe it. "Impossible", you say?
What if Frank Kern said the same thing? He did it, or was it $24
million in one day (I heard both).

I saw some great answers on how it could be done. Why not think
along those lines instead of limiting yourself to "IMPOSSIBLE".

What if it could be done. How would you do it? If not with
Twitter, then with what? How could you make $10,000 a day. That
is only $3.65 million in a year -- Frank did far more than that
in one day.

Hey...Just my 2 cents.

I checked the guy out. I didn't join his Twitter, but viewed it and checked out his website.

He has a lot of good video blogs with lots of valuable info. He admits to having a team, so his company probably made $10K, which is highly likely based on what I researched on the guy.

To date, he has well over 60K followers on one of his Twitter accounts. He is supposedly got multiple accounts.

This can be done via software like one that a Warrior is offering called Twadder. People regularly open 10 or more accounts and the Twadder or similar software follows people and then they follow you back. This is likely what he has done since the number of people he follows is almost identical to the number that is following him.

So, anyway, let's say you have 10 accounts like most people using the software and have built it to about 40K followers (which is about where he was at when the video came out I believe).

So that's about 400K+ followers. You shoot out a few personal tweets during the day automatically via TweetLater and then you also shoot out a link to a good free article with some Adsense, later you shoot out a CPA ad link, and maybe later an affiliate link for a product you think people following you would like.

Say your average income from these offers was just about $10 (A couple of bucks from adsense, a few bucks from CPA, about $20 from the affiliate link.)

You only need a very poor response of 0.25% to make $10,000 that day.

Why couldn't this be done daily. It is a very low close rate, but the volume is what makes it possible.

I will be implementing this myself once I find a good target market and a good supply of CPA and Affiliate products to offer.

Some of you more experienced folks should try it.

Like someone said earlier. You have to let go of the limiting beliefs.

If you need more info on builing the Twitter following, search the forum for the Twadder product. There are a few great strategies given in the thread also for building the list quick.
