It all started with my 1st post on the Warrior Forum, entitled “How I Do Over 10K in Clickbank Sales Every Month”, which got over 3000 views in the first 3 days alone…
Sometime last month, Clickbank made another tweak to their system, which caused my sales to suddenly plummet from $500-$800+/day to less than $200/day. I asked in a couple of forums whether other clickbank affiliates were seeing the same trend - they were.
Someone I was having a discussion with, PM’ed (private messaged) to ask me, “could you please tell me how you’re making so many sales a day?” I replied “it’s not alot, and my method is simple, but sure I can tell you, but instead of just PM’ing the method to you, I’ll post my method publicly in case other people also find it useful.”
It was close to midnight. I quickly typed up a post and published it in that forum. Half asleep by then, I decided it may be good to also paste it on a couple other forums - the Warrior and DigitalPoint forums. I had never made a post on the Warrior Forum prior to that, although I had registered as a member 1.5 years earlier.
I then dragged myself to bed.
The next morning I checked the Warrior Forum and….Holy Smokes! A whole page full of responses and an inbox full of PMs awaited me! Many fellow members left compliments and encouragement. Others asked for clarification. I was overwhelmed with this attention and kindness, which I felt I didn’t deserve. After all, I was (and am) still a newbie and “my” method was neither new nor rocket science.
The same post got similar responses in the other forums I posted to as well, and over the next days I would set aside a couple of hours each day to answer questions publicly in the forum, through PMs, and via email. A few people suggested that I write an ebook on the method, and said they would gladly pay for it. To repay their kindness, I decided to write an ebook and offer it for free. This was about three weeks ago.
So, here I am, finally starting on this ebook. English is not my first language (I came to Canada from Hong Kong when I was 9) and my vocabulary is very limited, but the encouragement I’ve received so far is urging me on. My incentive is the hope that at least one person who will be reading this ebook will take the action required to start generating a full-time income online. I know it’s possible, because I’m doing it.
Quite a few individuals have asked in the forums for proof of income to back up my claims. I refused to show any, simply because number one, I considered it bad form to brag in public forums, and number two, it’s nothing so extraordinary as to warrant bragging. However, after more thinking, I’m starting to think that maybe I should show some proof to the readers of my ebook, to instill faith and to provide encouragement that the method really does work - both of which I needed when I was a confused newbie trying to make my first dollar in IM.
What do you think? I just got a check from clickbank 2 days ago. Should I take a picture of it and post it here?
Thank-you my friends for all your encouragement. I’ll try to finish the ebook in the next few days and get it to you ASAP. If you haven’t signed up for the ebook already, you can do so here:
