How to make $10k per month?

[victom]

Hello and welcome. I hope you all are having an amazing day.

My name is Thomas and after weeks of procrastination, I have finally decided to start my adventure with affiliate marketing. There's no time like the present, right? I know that the right organization is very important and it directly affects the results.

That’s why I will keep a work journal to motivate me and hopefully increase my productivity. Like I mentioned, this is the beginning of my “affiliate journey”, so you can just enjoy watching me learn and grow. I saw some rankings of affiliate networks and for now I’ve decided to go with MyLead. I think that their aesthetics, promised support system and the amount of campaigns convinced me. But it’s possible that I will start signing up on other networks once I’m more experienced, too.

My ways of promoting campaigns will probably change over time as well, but at the moment I thought that posting affiliate links on forums will be enough. I’m also thinking about running a Wordpress blog one day so once I’m fully dedicated to that idea, I’ll let you know. This will be my first work journal so every word of advice will be appreciated

Wish me and my consistency luck!

What category and niche/s will you enter?

Beware Affiliate Fix mods are very sharp !!

Consistency is from discipline
It's not luck, make plan & keep going

I am very cynical about MMO promises and claims ... re: posting on affiliate boards
Show me the money

• Set realistic goals
• Be ready with pivot points
• Learn by the mistakes of others when you can --it's a lot cheaper

When is the last time you made $10K in one month? Keep it real ...

MMO is has so many unsubstantiated claims and fraught with misdirections and outdated info. It clouds the field for the real trainers and respectable trainers.

Are you referring to MMO as the niche, or making money online in general when you talk about unsubstantiated claims / fraught?

All of it. MMO is likely the most abused territory of our industry. That's why communities like ours are here. There are an abundance of black hat communities, and many fewer white communities. In the end, MMO is a very divided area. A person simply needs to decide whether to take the plunge in one direction or the other. Unfortunately, many get sucked into the dream instead of the reality. When a person gets sucked into the dream, they likely are following information that makes promises that won't, or can't, deliver the goods.

I like that you have set a realistic goal that is achievable, I hope that you have a clear plan of action that will allow you to cope with all the tasks.

I wish you good luck.

So it’s been over a week and I have generated some profit. I don’t think it’s that impressive but it’s not a bad start, either. I was focusing on dating but I’m planning on trying different categories, we’ll see what suits me the best. I was mainly posting it on some social media groups and dedicated forums.

 

[victom]

First of all, thank you all for commenting!

What is your target for December 2020?

Honestly, I’m aware that the beginnings can be tough and I can’t expect affiliate marketing to pay my bills for the first couple of weeks, months even. But I’m aiming at $200 this month. It’s been over a week and even though I haven’t reached ¼ of that, I’m still going to pursue my goal. I seriously think it’s possible.

What category and niche/s will you enter?

Well, I have started with campaigns for adults, sure, they can seem a little bit sketchy but when I was just looking around in MyLead's “marketplace” I was amazed by the rates, haha. But I don’t think I will be focusing on just one for now. Once I get ahold of running my own blog, then I will have to choose the niches and a particular category I’m going for.

Good plan, it will keep you focus & wise people on the forum will help you

Thank you very much! That’s what I’m hoping for

I get it, I’m actually quite cynical, too. But without a difficult challenge, there won’t be satisfactory results. Yeah, I’m not making $10k in one month at my 9-5 job but I’ve never said I’m going to get $10k during the first couple of weeks. Even if it takes 3 years, so what? I set the goal and shared it with people to keep me motivated. I don’t care how much it will take. I’m hoping to provide you what you’re expecting, just give me some time

I like that you have set a realistic goal that is achievable, I hope that you have a clear plan of action that will allow you to cope with all the tasks.

Thanks, man! Honestly, I don’t have a particular plan but I’m sure I’ll get one as soon as I’m more into the promoting part (yeah, I know it’s the most crucial one )

I wish you good luck.
I hope you will share some more details of your work...

Thank you! Stay tuned

Why MMO sales copy but it never gets to the point?

Welcome .Firstly devide your goal by small steps ,firstly aim to achieve 3k monthly as an example .Then aim for 10k .Making 10k monthly its not an easy job even if you see so many programs where promise you 300$ daily working 3 hours per day
If you want to achive this amount ,you need to be persistent every day like in a real job ,every time when you miss some days of working its like starting again .Also the most important step its to build an email list from scratch

 

[Dortmoond]

You have chosen the right sphere to earn such money, you are sure to succeed.

Thanks for the words of advice! Do you have any cold mailing software or should I just not care about personalizing the messages and send them via gmail?

Thanks, man! I hope you're right!

Okay, two weeks have passed.

I have mainly focused on the same programs as before - posting them on various social media platforms and fan pages. I’m planning to create a blog at the end of the year, once there’s a little bit more free time. Btw, how much time do you devote to affiliate marketing daily? I honestly can spare about an hour per day at the moment but I know that there’s no chance to get to my goal with that.

 

[victom]

It’s getting better and better. I’m honestly happy with these 3 weeks. I still have a plan to create a blog once I have some more free time, I hope that will happen after the Holidays.
Anyways, dating is great. I’m glad I started focusing on this category from the beginning. And smartlinks work magic, too!

Happy Holidays, everyone!

Personally i dont think 10k a month is a huge target when you have a plan and good affiliate program to promote. Good Affiliate Marketers always takes benefit from current situation and we have COVID this time. If you are promoting the products or services which can help people in this situation, you are in the Boat moving quickly towards the target. Best of Luck and Happy Holidays.

 

[Busida]

Well, yes, I would also like to see some specifics.
And of course, at least some achievements.
But it seems to me that such public promises can become a certain motivation.

Yeah, I agree. I was drawn to promoting Dating programs because they usually have high rates but also because I’m using COVID in my advantage (does that sound bad? ). You know, things like: Are you feeling lonely during these hard times? These apps will help you get through them.

What specifics would you like to see?
I know that right now all I do is literally posting screenshots with my balance account, but honestly, it does give me an additional motivation to try maybe a little harder. And yeah, I think that's the whole point of sharing even basic results.

It’s been a month. Still, dating programs are the best. As I said in my reply to Hozefa, using COVID in my advantage really works. I have started promoting smartlink campaigns. Right now I’m focusing on Adult Dating - Smartlink I on MyLead and… honestly I’m actually not sure what details I should go into . I’m really happy with the amount I have gained during the past 30 days. I was expecting it to be something closer to like $100 for the first month of “work. Sooo yeah, happy to see what the new year brings

 

[victom]

Maybe, occupying free time with minimal direct contact?

Yeah, I would say so.
Oh my, “ In the last 30 days, more than 9 million coronavirus searches have appeared on Pornhub(...)Why are people looking for this kind of porn? The answer is similar to why people also tend to look for holiday porn throughout the year: It reflects our constant need for sexual novelty and humans’ ability to fetishize virtually everything.” Haha, that’s scary.

I can’t get myself to start a blog… It’s hard for me because my “old” methods of putting affiliate links on fan pages and various themed websites and forums still work but I can’t seem to “develop” (I don’t know if that’s the word I’m looking for). I guess what I mean is that I have this feeling of stagnation and even though $130 for a few hours of work is not bad I haven’t done anything differently or better than before. I really hope that some kind of motivation comes to me. Or maybe I have to go to it

 

[Graybeard]

You can only play the cards you are dealt when it comes to situations beyond your control like recessions and now a pandemic.
6 months from now the outlook may be different.

Porn is up (pun intended) How the Pandemic Is Changing Pornography
how that is related to dating and 'home entertainment' I am no so certain. Maybe, occupying free time with minimal direct contact?

you are doing great, keep it up! youre just using social media, forums as your traffic source, right? whats the offer type? cpl, email submit or else? thanks!

 

[Contentistic]

@victom You're doing great bud.

Just remember to keep posting - till you've reached your goal.

Any help with diversification or if you have any queries, we'd be happy to chime in when needed.

I hate it when Follow Alongs simply die down or are ignored. It's kinda like buying those movies on 2 CDs in the olden days, watching the first half and just when the climax was about to set in, you realize the seller forgot to package the second disc.
