Nerdy Affiliate Adventures In Affiliate Marketing Land

My Current Success…

Posted by JasperP on June 5th, 2008

So how am I doing now? I was able to do $9,551.54 in commissions for the month of May. My ROI is around 200-250% based on my adspend. Check it out:

I’ve been trying to build up my capital so that I can spend more on advertising. I want this business to expand so I’m not planning to spend the money on a car or anything.

The mindset is totally different when working for yourself as opposed to working for someone. I’ve learned that being in business, you need to maintain good cash flow and because money moves in and out of the account regularly, especially in large amounts!

The next step for me is to expand to other networks such as AzoogleAds, NeverblueAds, and others. I’ve made some money there, but was short-lived when Google put the smackdown in Late-March 2008.

I just applied for membership at UberCamp and just subscribed to ClickConsultants. UberCamp, hosted by Paul Borque of UberAffiliate.com, is more of an intermediate-advanced affiliate marketing forum where some great affiliate marketers such as Jonathan Volk and Ian Fernando participate in.

ClickConsultants is a newbie-intermediate (advanced?) affiliate marketing forum that also focuses on affiliate marketing. They provide free landing pages per month and also have tutorials on different aspects of PPC marketing with CPA Networks.

My current goal is to make $1k/day in commissions on average across 7 days. I think breaking the $1k/day will be a bit of challenge, but knowing the goal will help me to focus on it.

My First Clickbank Direct Deposit

Posted by JasperP on June 1st, 2008

Yes! My first direct deposit from Clickbank! I’ve always received the paper checks and I remembered hearing that you can get direct deposit with clickbank. I read on some forums that all you have to do is request it to get direct deposit.

Clickbank Direct Deposit - Secret Bonus?

In case you didn’t know, getting direct deposit from Clickbank is kind of hidden. There’s no information for it in their help files and supposedly you need to be making $1000+ per month in order to get this added to your accounts. It doesn’t hurt to ask, so why not right?

“I want it. Give me the direct deposit!”

What I did was I went to the Clickbank Contact Us Page at:
https://www.clickbank.com/publisherquestion.html

I filled out the basic info and asked, “I would like to setup direct deposit for my account. What do I need to fill out?” They sent me a PDF form to fill out where I attached a voided check. Within a couple of days, I was approved for it!

So on May 30, I look in my bank account and see this:

I blurred out my clickbank ID, but I think you get the picture! Now I don’t have to wait for that one Clickbank check to arrive to get my money.

The benefits of this is that I get the check 1 day early and plus I don’t have to drive to the bank! It’s a win-win-win situation.

I don’t get why they don’t make it standard like the other affiliate networks. CJ, ShareASale, AzoogleAds, and other major networks offer a direct deposit option for all their affiliates. Oh well. Go figure.

My First Affiliate Marketing Check EVER!

Posted by JasperP on May 31st, 2008

I started affiliate marketing in August 2007, but I didn’t receive my First Check until January, 2008. I actually set the threshold kind of high so I didn’t receive a check until it accumulated to the threshold.

This story is overdue, but in my first check (Jan, 2008) I made $911.56! I think it was over a 2-3 month period.. so maybe like $300 per month i guess? I was so hooked after that!

Anyway, my girlfriend framed my check which was a pretty cool of her to do. Check it out… It looks so awesome!
