My 1000'th knowledge bomb early (because I'll never reach 1000 posts) 10yrs in 20min.

^ My product is off the marketplace and has been since 2013 when I had to close the aff program, but there is still enough data there up until then to see what a natural organic product going a bit viral looks like (type in dubturbo in a search on one of the sites, and tab to graphs/payouts/etc to understand it all).

Plug in some of the bigger success stories on CB and analyze their lifelines/fluctuations/this was a daily routine for me at one point. Looking at it all now is amazing and kinda giving me feels as each of my little spikes/drops/moves on my charts is actual memories for me (yep, I got attacked there, and there, and there, and I got plugged here, and added the upsells here, and...).
 


When you were doing Click Bank, did Click Bank allow physical products or only info products?

I noticed that there's now physical product offers at Click Bank.

Yeah they started doing it a few years back, I should have mentioned this to you when we chatted actually. You might like this :).

A few associates did the the whole shipping/handling song and dance with tangibles but most ended up returning to digital only because we're spoiled like that and not looking after inventory/manuf./warehousing/employeetheft/all that semi brick and mortar stuff is why most want online success. In your shoes, you might actually benefit huuuuuge by taking an existing popping converter and introduce it to the cb marketplace vs your boutique setup. I would explore it.

I think one of the main reasons I popped for so long was my white-hatness, just good end user solution/tool, which is kinda like you too.
 
Thanks fam :)

I think that was right in the middle months of all the attacks and I got to vent a bit with you?


It was indeed chap. Those fuckers had done some blatantly out-of-order shit and it riled me too, but you asked me not to post about it, so of course I didn't.

P.S. - Any advice for dating a chick from Manitoba?

New to this shit but this was a great post to read. Motivational but also a little scary in parts. I guess that's nothing to be concerned about until you actually have some success though.

Broke status checking in lol. Supposed to be going to Amsterdamn in a month and have like £30 in the bank, fresh out of Uni.

Peace.
 
Ncmedia, How do you normally get traffic to your offers. In particular with digital ebook type offers, what traffic sources do you use?
 
That first batch/tests, I straight up buy it, pay top dollar for clicks if I have to.

Adwords, facebook, bing, specific sites in your niche that have adsense on them...

I only do a TINY bit of traffic generation (compared to x month long camps) for the testing phases before passing off profitable campaigns to affiliates and letting them morph and grow it. I did't want to compete with them (I know, backwards thinking for most, great automation and free'ing up my time for me to make bigger moves/attract bigger affiliates vs trying to get internal sales). Traffic is very abundant once they take over - you're left tweaking your page for more profits and better conversions vs wanting even more traffic. Also some kids sent PPV/other crap traffic which isn't exactly traffic it's just a bandwidth swallow.

So to answer your question: I used leverage/others to get traffic, there is no right/wrong place or way to get it, just positioning yourself properly before or during your first little spike of aff sales so others notice.

How come that now since affiliates lost interest in your products you don't promote it yourself through PPC?
 
(affiliates didn't lose interest, I closed the aff program myself back in 2013 on all my sites, because it grew too big and self-sabotage)

Because:

* Lifecycle (it's over, not worth trying to relive glory days for x% of the results I had).

* I'm goooood (recognizing there IS a finish line, or at least a checkpoint and to live a little, smell some flowers, slow down and look around at life a bit)

* Desires (Been producing music/doing online stuff for 20 years, I can't be arsed to create another beat or song - but I still do - just for fun now not for money).

* Golden Cage/Handcuffs (As fucked as this might sound, I'm GLAD it's all over and I can come up for air, that shit gets a hold of you deep and 5+ years can make you a bit crazy even with ample automation).

* Progression in ones career/skillsets (I'm doing a lot of video/3D stuff now and loving it, not looking at money/sales/the typical routine anymore).

Actually, I'll embrace humility here and post a few things from my funsies channel that I started being active on again - no views yet but adding content slowly and liking the challenge of organic growth while knowing I can buy my way to the top/be a 'youtuber' pretty easily.. A big part of me wants to just close up shop, take my cameras, and do a documentary about the animals in the RainForest, because that's what guys with money and time do once they get bored of lifes usual stimulants lol.

Good going Norb. I remember some of your posts from earlier. It's nice to see a familiar quality on here after such a long time. This particular semi-annual checkin was not a waste :)
 
How much money did you make to quit from the game?

xxx,000,000?

xx,000,000?

x,000,000?

Any indication would be good, so we know when we should pull out too.
