I will definitely be doing an update. I've just been a little swamped with all-nighters for my regular job lately. It's crazy how little time I've had lately, but that's how it goes sometimes.
Affiliate marketing is definitely where I want to spend my time - it's where I want to be. But...
Ok, my first campaign is finally in the books. I didn't make any sales, but it was definitely a good learning experience. It was a T-Shirt campaign with a Facebook page as the "landing page", and I used Facebook ads to promote a post with the shirt.
I ran the campaign for 2 days and spent...
:) That's an awesome question. Personally, I'd have to say it feels like semi-retirement. In my opinion, it's the only way to work!
I'm a bit of an introvert though, so it's enough for me to get my "people time" thought my wife and daughter, or when I go shopping or to the gym. A lot of my...
Well, still not launched. I'm going to blame it on all the visitors from Canada we've been having down here in Mexico, because that's an easy excuse ;) I have made some good progress though, and I'm very much on the verge of launching.
My first campaign:
For better or worse I've settled on...
Sorry. Ya, I know this is taking me a long time. I've definitely discovered something about myself while trying to launch a campaign. I really tend to flounder about A LOT when I'm doing something new. Especially something I'm not all that confident in.
Just putting together images for ads...
I haven't actually blocked Skype. I just haven't entered any messenger details into my AffliateFix account. For the moment at least, I'd prefer to just do all affiliate marketing communication through AffiliateFix itself. I currently only use Skype for my regular job.
Wow, another week has gone by. Ok, this is my final chapter before I actually launch my first campaign. This chapter is aptly named Launching. There are a couple more chapters after this in Charles Ngo's Guide to Affiliate Marketing, namely Optimizing and Newbie Strategy. I'll post something...
Ok, time to get back at it! The next 2 chapters I read were Hosting and Tracking. The big thing about hosting is to make sure you've something that can load your landing pages fast. Charles recommends a VPS (virtual private server), but for most beginners that's likely too expensive. Other...
Well, it's actually been pretty crazy with my regular job. We recently got a new and large Australian client, and I've been working ridiculous hours on new features for them. Things are just getting back to normal now.
I'm really itching to get back at this within the next couple of days!
I would have to agree that thit AffiliateFix is awesome! Having access to guides and follow-alongs is great.
I'm also new to affiliate marketing, so I don't know if my recommendation really means much :) But, I'm currently going through Charles Ngo's free online guide, and I've been very...
I'm actually following Charles Ngo's free Ultimate Guide to Affiliate Marketing Start Here - CharlesNgo.com. It has been incredibly informative and helpful. I'm also really glad I came across AffiliateFix, because the feedback and guides on here have been Awesome!
Once I'm done Charles Ngo's...
Thanks for your post Lorenzo. I hear what you're saying and I'm going to get at it very soon. :) Believe me when I say that I definitely don't think I "can write and persuade the visitor better than people doing AM from years and years". Quite the opposite, in fact. I know I'll be looking at...
Are all your campaigns in English, or do you use a translation service of some sort?
Nice job, by the way. I've been following your thread and it's been really helpful.
