What would YOU like to see here?

I like the idea of mastermind groups, but that is more up to each individual member if they would like to join and share ideas.
 
I would like a post with all the IM and CPA jargon listed in a user frindly style then have the post made a sticky so we can access it when needed

I copied this today off of a nice guy named sams site, it may help whoever takes this task on

So you mean you want a thread with CPA definitions in it, sounds ok to me, ill work on something.
 
Idea after reading Rosie's "Buttkickers Needed" thread: How about a way/place to start our own journals or blogs here? That way we can keep up with each other's progress and be supportive in our endeavors?

I have encouraged Case studies which is what these would be - however i am going to make some special [tags] so you can mark your thread as a case study/journal and it will be highlighted!
 
I'm back... you might want to close this thread I might drive you a little crazy..

I would love to have a shout box on the index page.. only seen by members who join though.
The value of the shout box is bringing members closer together, and forming friendships
.. if you want you coukd make it for general chat only.. no problem solving unless members them selves start such a conversation
 
we have a chatroom - but I'm not happy with it, chat is a good idea but having it on the homepage can draw activeness out of the forums thats all!
 
Ok I've just added a Case Study prefix so you can add it to your threads to get more exposure and help

Yeah K, I was part of another forum with a group skype chat and everything was talked about in there. There were no more posts made on the forum. So if you missed a day in the chat, you could possibly have lost some valuable information. I say nix the chat and let members chat amongst themselves.
 
K,

- Social media marketing
- Mobile marketing
- Adding a 'Like' button in threads. I know there's a 'Thank you' but there is a difference between these two

Thanks
 
More information. I was excited about this forum when I first stumbled upon, but now rarely frequent it. Every time I click the new posts tab all that comes up are topics irrelevant to CPA marketing (bed time, cars we drive, etc) and introductions. 80% of us are here to learn. I think it's time for the heavy hitters to step up and share some knowledge.
 
I really liked your list of CPA networks that don't require phone approval. How about compiling a list of CPA networks that offer a referral program?
 
One thing that I like a LOT on this forum is that you incentivize Case Studys, and case studys are the best thing for those (like me) that still haven't taken action (in my case I haven't taken actions because right now I really can't). I would like to be able to search topics that have that prefix. And an awesome thing that you could integrate is the options to put other prefixes. For example a "FB Casestudy" instead of being red it would be blue, "PPV casestudy" gree, "POF casestudy" pink, "Offline Casestudy" black etc. (just saying ramdom collors, but make them different so that we could see them better).

If I even want to learn about how to advertise on those platforms, I would research them and see every case study to learn from other people's mistakes.

Nice idea, however this is why we have separate forums - but i will look at adding a feature to quickly find all "case study" threads within a forum!
