[Journey] My journey to $10,000 profit per month selling marketing services

[googleguy]

Hi everyone! I was laid off by my company in March. I've been taking courses and learning about affiliate marketing so I figured why not give it a try. So my initial goal is to reach $5,000 net per month within 6 months. If I succeed, my next target would be $10,000 per month. But if I fail, hopefully the covid19 situation gets better and I can get a job. So I'll be documenting my journey here.

I chose to resell Appsally.com marketing services. They are sort of like a mini Fiverr for marketing services only. They have a affiliate program paying 10% but I chose the reseller program paying 20% commission as I prefer to build my own website and email list for long term. I started in mid March and here's what I already did:

1. Paid for the reseller program credits ($800)
2. Bought a domain ($10)
3. Used Fiverr to setup a wordpress website ($20)
4. Used Appsally's plugin to import all their services. (free)
5. Used Fiverr for a copywriting template ($20)
6. Bought some SEO packages, mostly backlinks from variety of websites ($100)
7. Shared to a few Facebook groups (free)

So after 1 month+, this is my current progress ($3k+ revenue):

So now everything is setup and working correctly, it's time to scale up the marketing. My next plan:

1. Setup email drip (probably using aweber)
2. Run ads.

However, I still haven't got a clue where to run the ads. Any suggestion guys? Anything else I should be doing?

I am sorry to hear that you lost your job, covid19 outbreak affected the whole world economy. And we may see worse economical results in the next months. However, I am glad that you took action (I just took action nowadays as well - launched my first campaign). Your journey path seems very interesting, looking forward to seeing your updates in here As for ads, I am using propellerads for now but I am newbie focusing on mobile cpa offers. So I am not sure if propellerads would be right choice for you or not.
