How I Made My First Sale

[BigBucks]

Well it was much easier than I thought to make my first sale...I signed up to Wealthy Affiliate about 2 weeks ago then I read through their courses.

Then I decided to pick a tattoo product I found through their Clickbank search tool. Once I found my product I decided to advertise to the biker community so I wrote an article on "how to choose a tattoo" and at the end of the article I posted the link to my product. I posted the article in ezine for free and I also went on the Harley Davidson Forum and talked about my own tattoos. The next day had a sale and i made 29 dollars which paid my first month for WA. Not bad...I never knew it was so easy. I am going to try and sell some fitness products now...anyone know of any good fitness products to sell?

Awesome!
So you dont even have your own site? Just goes to show that you dont actually need a site to make sales online.

Hi BigBucks,

Congrats on your 1st sale.

A really good fitness affiliate program is Gaiam lifestyle, healthcare and personal development Affiliate Program, managed by one of our clients, AMWSO.

Right on thanks I will check out that affiliate program...I made my first sale without a web page but I started making a fitness website so I am trying to improve it now and add some fitness stuff to it. Here it is if anyone has any suggestions for improvement I would gladly accept them...I do mostly "bum marketing" right now. I am trying to build up some seed money for PPC campaigns later...Thanks!

Hi BigBucks,

For a variety of reasons, we can't allow people to post links to their site in the discussion threads.
Best thing to do to get feedback on your site is to request a site review down in the marketplace.
Your site link is allowed there.

Thanks

I made my first sale using Bum Marketing. I placed an article on US Free Ads. This doesn't seem to work as well as it did in the past.

Congrats Big Bucks! Content is king!

Good luck bigbucks...fitness is a tough industry (highly competitive) but it's also a popular one. Like someone here said, content is king!

See what you did though

You went where your prospects were

Nice job
