    Ok so it's not a scam... I finally made my first sale!! It's working :) 1st Sale!

    Hey All,

    I am now officially an Affiliate Marketer. I was testing THEMIGREL for keywords, to be honest ALL i was doing was testing PPC campaigns via adwords, gathering qualitative data on what keywords work well, CPC....just learning really.....

    Just logged on to one of my clickbank accounts and saw this;



    A sale, totally unexpected!! But welcome none the less, and this was PPC ONLY, as i was only testing keywords...seems i found some that worked!! lol.....

    Now all i got to do is actually release my product and ill be one of you guys, a marketer AND publisher!! (im hoping today to re-submit my product)

    To Your Success
    Joshua

    Ah Joshua, very happy for you my friend and even happier that it was using my product.

    Keep testing there are some real hidden gems with PPC and the migraine relief.

    Also just to note we are currently working on a new sales copy for the sales page to increase conversions, give me a couple of days and I should have a couple of different sales page options for everyone

    Really happy for you though mate good job

    Awesome job, dude

    I remember my first sale. Don't think I'll ever forget it.

    It was a hell of a day.
    Cool signature pending = I'm waiting for someone to say something stupid so I can quote it.

    Congrats dude well done.

    If I may ad some criticism as well though, this is one of your first ever affiliate sales, right? Most people get effective in affiliate marketing before they release their own product..

    Of course you may very well be capable of becoming a vendor without being an effective affiliate first, but this is not the "standard" route.

    It may be difficult for you to put together a good affiliate resource center if you don't have good affiliate experience yourself. One keyword that converted for you, is not a lot to go by if you want to provide your affs with resources.

    Also, are you going heads-on with Will? His product is looking pretty smart to me (still waiting for that lander so I can test it with PPC hint hint Will :P)

    So once again sorry if I'm reading your post the wrong way, but if I am right and you want to release your own migraine product on clickbank.. Then you should test your OWN product with PPC and tweak THAT for conversions. Once you get it to a stable 2% conversion rate, get affiliates on board.

    If you jump in too soon and use your affs as "guinea pigs" they will test your product, find it doesn't convert, and leave it alone never to come back. So you want to make sure FIRST it converts and only after that you get others to promote.

    Once again, not sure I read your post right, but if I did, this should be important info for you.

    Congrats on the sale again, not trying to rain on your parade here.. (and I know my monster freaks you out)

    I am promoting Wills product for fun, i have never ever done affiliate marketing and thought id do it for fun (AND im enjoying it since seeing that sale!!) I am NOT releasing a competeing product at ALL!! I have written 2 'Proper' Physical books, one fiction...and have been developing a couple of products related to my degree studies. But I wanted a distraction for a while, so i gave promoting someone elses product a go, and i am hooked now!! So i want to get my products done and get on to marketing!!

    As for desiging an affiliates section, you hit the nail on the head there... i will probably need help developing that one

    Congrats Aeren

    I remember my first PPC sale, only problem is it can be very addictive!!

    Set some daily limits so you don't get burned.

    Congrats! - Dont get too caught up in the land of PPC - get some organic going - and do a bit in your spare time - like working out, 15 to 30 minutes per day works miracles as an IM also.

    I am always happy to help Willy....he is my love now . I am really excited and motivated to dedicate A LOT more time to this product now, because if a sale is possible with no effort at all, I can only imagine what i can do if i go at it with 200% effort.....
