It’s one of the most sought after prized lifestyles one can imagine - Building an empire on autopilot and virally duplicating your success by literally duplicating revenue streams.

Sounds crazy doesn’t it? Kids are becoming millionaires at the click of a mouse - now it’s more like at the lack of a click and at the mercy of affiliate marketers doing the work for you - or being an affiliate marketer and simply knowing how to flip offers for cheap/free with traffic.

Creating your first ever automated revenue stream is just like making your first million they say. Once you make your first million - making more and duplicating your success can seem rather easy. That first website you build or landing page you master or keyword you dominate which translates to an abundance of lucrative traffic is becoming more and more difficult as our industry opens its doors to a new boom of marketers.

Once you’ve been around the block a bit, and tried everything from online to offline to door to door sales to webinars and seminars, to coaching sessions and high priced products, you know darn well what type of industry this can be. Bypassing all the skimming, tracking problems, corrupt networks, shady TOS and T&C and payment terms, reversals, chargebacks, getting canned by the network, getting mass frauded, the list just goes on… But somewhere in that jungle of faceless scams and trickery, is an endless goldmine of profits that is available to ANYONE with the right combination of skills and talents.

If you can put up a site that promotes a good offer which pays you $50 per sale, and you make 4 sales a week (VERY reasonable and easy to achieve), that’s an extra $10400 a year in your pocket - and trust me if you can build ONE site that converts, you can build 10-100 too. Perhaps not all will perform, however if even 25% of your portfolio of sites converts well, you’re easily breaking into the six figure a year earners bracket.

So today I want to take you through my day and show you a little insight into how I manage and operate my passive income streams, and continue to dominate my destiny by duplicating what is working (and oooh it’s working!).

I usually wake up 10am-1pm, sometimes 6am-9am depending on what mode I’m in. See, I have a ‘production mode’ where I’m caught in a design and media creative trance/binge and won’t sleep for days on end, or sleep very little (I and most like me work better at night). Then I have a research and business mode where I’m up early, tending to all the support needs my affiliates and customers have, as well as setting up new partnerships, JV’s, top level communications etc. This requires your sharp hat and I cannot be stuck in my design trance while juggling this stuff too. Then I have a ‘do nothing’ mode where I literally enjoy and relax most of my day because everything is automated and there are no new product launches happening at the moment (very rare lately)…

My life has turned into a mish mash of doing what I love (creative media production), plus dealing with an amazing group of fellow marketers (my affiliate team), and having to problem solve a lot (another passion and outlet for my creative side). My life has also turned into more of the same - which I love most - meaning I’m still in charge of my day, every day, all day, and am responsible to nobody but ME (ok and mr. taxman - that bugger). However now it’s on a different level, the money is on a different level, the competition is on a different level, and even if I wanted to - nothing is going to stop the viral effect that my studio and product line are going through.

I’ve managed to cut through the bullshit, found a network that works (most of the time), that doesn’t make it hard or fill you with redtape on how to earn. I’ve gathered a group of strong like-minded people to grow with me, and more come daily now on their own as they see my slate snowballing to bigger levels… Success then starts to attract success, and this snowball now also includes a flood of other publishers wanting to partner and or get representation by me (something I’ve stopped doing, I’m hoping I never have a webdesign client ever again to be honest).

So in short - it’s possible, it’s not a sham, it’s not just a bunch of nice websites, it’s money, freedom, time to do what I want, a way of life that is uncomparable and not understood by the avg 9-5 folks, and sometimes even I sit back with a stupid smile and can’t believe it’s real…

That first little milestone you reach when you become a good affiliate marketer or publisher, is literally enough to sweep you away and you’ll never look back. It can be the difference between you continuing to try to bank a few hundred a week extra to a whopping amount of money that no corporation could ever imagine giving you in a salary.

Don’t stop pursuing your dream to live large, the money is still not the end goal for me - I have some The journey I’m going through and the way I get to live and spend my TIME is the most important aspect in the world. In my opinion too many people are influenced and conditioned to be robots and zombies - WAKE THE **** UP PEOPLE! You only get one shot at this thing called life, aren’t you worth more than $xx,xxx a year for god knows how many years to be a slave?

If you work at a 9-5, I’d like for you to dig deep and ask what it is exactly that your work does at the end of the day, does it help people or just provide some unneeded service that is just marketable? The power to put together online revenue streams, have them automated, and duplicate is probably a LOT easier to do than your 9-5 job, and the rewards are much bigger (including not having a boss, and again it’s YOUR time/life - to do what you please).

Take a good look into the world of online passive income generation - and take it with caution - because there are many millionaires that try to sell you their ’secrets’, which are nothing more than them getting rich by selling you this product to begin with. Instead, buy into the notion that whatever it is THAT guru is doing, you can do too.

In fact, that’s a great way to end this post - WHATEVER YOU SEE ANYONE AROUND YOU DOING - YOU CAN TOO. It’s a big world of opportunity out there, and an ever bigger one in here (online), you don’t have to be physically fit or an athlete, you don’t have to be a genius, you don’t have to be a nerd, you just have to have passion and understand how this world works.

Your Media Boy,

This blog isn’t even 100% finished yet re structure and links etc., and I’m already considering closing it up. Why? Well, at the end of the day, this industry is known for both showing your status and spot, as well as documenting your success. More importantly for me though, this business is about automation. My version of status and spot, is to get the fcuk off these computers in the near future. Ever hear a guru try to teach you that? Yep, I said it, my goal and aim, is to go from where I am now into epic levels through quality partners and a big enough greased wheel to allow me to free myself from gazing into a screen(s) all day.

This blog doesn’t make any direct money, it has a couple referral links here and there, and perhaps also helps recruit into my affiliate programs, however the novelty is wearing off and frankly - updating this thing is fun at most, daunting at least. I’m even starting to chuckle to myself that I named and branded this with so much bling and wow factor.. . …

Perhaps I thought “Ok, it’s been 12 years, start a blog already, tell some stories, educate a few people, have some fun, and yes you’ll need it to recruit and get noticed in this industry”. Realistically, this blog hasn’t really done jack shyte for me other than remind me that I ‘gotta do a blog post’ every other day/week. The value of these things can be high, however the overall experience for a publisher to try to keep a blog, and get personal on it as well as mix in some business, has become a bunch of BS.

Having said that, I have no idea where this blog will go from here, you might just see the domain forwarded somewhere else shortly, or I might overhaul it again and stop the bling/money approach - I’m starting to enjoy my free time, and maximizing it for personal or more business reasons - documenting my success shall happen in other ways for me I think.

True automation is quite difficult in any form of business. The only real robots are the machines that enable factories to speedline their products. Every single publisher/merchant/affiliate I know still has a lot of day to day tasks no matter how much you automate your systems. Customer support, retention strategies, competitive intel, new campaigns, skimmers/fraud/refund enthusiasts, technical glitches/hacks, copyright infringement, the list goes on. These short lived spurts of income can become distant if you stop the chase, and I’m finally realizing that focusing on a set of valuable programs with one to one customer support is the true way to success. Not blogs, not recruiting in mass, launching more ebooks, but focusing on developing a relationship with nothing but quality people AND customers.

I will always be available through the Niche Choppers forum, and this domain may in fact get forwarded there in the near. This all stems from a huge launch for a new product/service happening tomorrow. Blogging is not something I really want to do anymore simple as that. It’s been ‘fun’, it’s been crappy at times when getting tons of bots posting bullshit comments/links, it’s been a bitch to try to finish, and it’s been fun keeping in touch with some of you guys through here.

Thank you,
N.

This post comes shortly after my 1000th post at an affiliate marketing forum (<<You should read it - I gave away tons of free profitable campaigns) or webmaster forum… I signed up to DOZENS years and years ago, and went through signing up to about 20 (or perhaps ‘resigning up’ would be more accurate) about a year or so ago…

It can be a rather… intimate experience, one part of you is just trying to fit in with this group, another part of you is absorbing and filtering the bullshit, another part of you wants to network, and yes for many these plague infested fcuking forums are also filled with spammers, wankers, scammers, wannabees, and HILARIOUSLY fubar signature links with all of them chasing the same nickel… Now don’t get me wrong, forum marketing is HUGE, and I love it myself, and use signature links too however what I find fascinating are the kids that blatantly put “Make 7K your first 3 weeks online” - yet proceed to ask the stupidest and most basic questions totally diluting his own credit and being a broken inglush hypocrite … . .. Grrrr.. . …

So - in light of this new little milestone and being loyal to xx forums, and constantly refining my journey through them all, I’m going to try to offer a non-biased straight up look at the truth about each forum below. Please feel free to drop your opinions or agree/disagree with me - I AM going to offer a few of my ‘opinions’ here as well.

1. NicheChoppers Marketing and webmaster forums
100% Free, No paid sections yet, Na ads! must sign up to view most goods:
Visit: http://forums.nichechoppers.com

^^ I’m obviously going to have to spam my own first - it’s newer than most, is JUST starting to get busy, and I’M GLAD I waited a year of being loyal to others before really shaping and recruiting into mine - in short: No hassle bung free environment, moderated well, rather aggressive yet loose approach, tying my family in a little tighter with each day. Closed loop family with success stories, tons of step by steps, growing daily.

2. Digital Point review - Visit: http://forums.digitalpoint.com
Usually where most people start at, it’s HUGE and full of…. crap:however is also the forum I myself had to filter and waste time at for over 1000 posts (1001 at this time) before handing in my diet card and bowing out… I’ll be back, however probably just to laugh at the de ja vu of stupidity and horrible moderation. If it’s one thing DP has, it is shear SIZE and the fact that it is always BUSY - however at the same time is FULL of just… everything bad with this industry, like everything…

I personally must have helped get 20-30 idiots banned from there… FACK makes me angry thinking about that place!! If you’re a TOTAL n00b, enjoy the rare little golden nugget you can find in there, and don’t buy ebooks or click on signature links unless you view it from a marketing point of view not a consumer… (Hi guys, miss me yet?). If DP let ME run the boat for a few days, I’d a) kick a lot of people off b) get BETTER MODS c) Monetize it better d) Change the colors

3. WarriorForum review - Visit: http://warriorforum.com/forum/
Well, definitely a step up from DP!! WF is known to have a TON of the bigger ebook and digital products/services players all hawking their newest WSO (Warrior Special Offer) to each other and there is a LOT of padding, and patting! Hey I myself have sold a few things in their WSO section, and their JV section is actually pretty good if you’re scouting for new offers, launching, or looking to partner up with someone on a project…

I thought about dropping some names here but I’m not that kind with my link juice yet… and this blog seems to do great with ranking - so perhaps I’ll give some props to at least one person I can say a LOT about in there so far - and that is Nicholas from MasteredManuscripts << Great writer.

4. ClickBankSuccess review - Visit: http://clickbanksuccessforum.com/forum/
Once I joined CB - I wanted to start scouting for AFF’s and for pubs alike, thus joining CB’s appointed forum… I liked it a lot more at first than I do today - Main reason is it might as well be a ’support’ forum as their rules and door are quite tight re what you can/can’t talk about… If you so much as question whether or not CB is down/acting up/failing, the post gets removed and you may get banned… I can see why they do it and I would hate that on my forum too, so perhaps a stupid example but overall - THEY’RE TIGHT!

The good part is you’ll find a LOT of both CB n00bs and pro’s asking/answering GOOD and relevant CB questions. Though even with their own appointed forum - DP’s CB section alone easily compares to the activity and n00bness factor in each… (GUYS - A FEW FCUKING STICKIES!! THAT’S ALL IT TAKES TO STOP DUMB QUESTIONS AND FAST-TRACK PEOPLE - oh wait, you WANT dumb questions, versioned intel, make them ask… more threads and posts right??).. meh, sorry they’re all like that to a point not just this one. So yes, stickies and loosen the tie a little please.

5. ABW - AbestWeb review - Visit: http://www.abestweb.com
Perhaps the ONLY forum I’ve ever been banned from and kicked off of… wankers! I made a HUGE blog and formal complaint about it a while back but decided to remove it due to their response/reaction… more wankers! Also very busy, MANY top level brands and bullshit commission structures on things like carpets/rugs/tangibles/etc… Lot’s of pro’s and I heard the owner can be a nice guy, but the short lived days I had there proved him and his crew otherwise…

In short: I launched a Recruitment and affiliate spy software (TFRP), and paid to put up a advertorial/recruitment post… The first response was a hidden insult at my whole program FROM A FCUKING MOD - Referencing another new member and getting the whole crew to come to my paid thread, and rip me plus my program to pieces… Ok cool, I got to show some colors too, and have a good look around at all their sigs, their thread style, their learning curve/operation etc… and can only say that the elitists there do a good job of making n00bs stay n00bs, and detouring any chance of real earnings with mouthy personal bullshit back and forth, ‘at least put some humor into it you WF wannabees’. Anyway so within a day, I got thousands of views, some PR, some negative buzz, a lot of affiliates, and a pissed off group of elitists for not ‘freaking out’ like I’m sure they hoped…

Finally posted my final ‘fcuk you and have a nice day, I’m out’ but in a very gentle way, and my post got removed, then my whole paid thread got removed… then got a refund and a ban and kick in the ass out the door for standing up for myself, because I was vexed that a MOD would make an idiot out of a sponsor/paying member publically (hi Trust - hope all is well in ‘fun’ mod land)- wankers! Before all this drama - I was STARTING to like SOME of the banter and the members and offers/pubs…, however will still say that most are stuck on selling rugs and see 3-12% commission on $59 offers as ‘amazing’ programs, SAS seems to have them by the balls along with a few other networks, and the digital arena products/services is just ’stench’ to them…. On the flip side - THEY BANK (just needs some clean up with operations/day to day bullshit they allow). **Oh and too much advertising imo too (I know they’re for profit, but c’mon - easy on the offers man - way to make me feel UNcommunity - what is this church? You’re waiving a money basket at me when I just got here??).

6. 5staraffiliateprograms.com review - Visit: http://www.5staraffiliateprograms.com/
One word - WOW - More on the corporate side of things, LARRY IS DA BOMB - and the main owner is actually really cool and involved with the op fairly intimately so the moderation is par… perhaps a tiny bit tight but for the programs and offers/clients/recruiters etc. that they attract, I think it’s best this way - To note the above - if ABW mods and members came to 5star, they’d get wake up call that’s for sure.

This place is like an affiliate and publisher wonderland full of anything and everything to do with our industry. News, gossip and funny banter is minimal - rather expect a mix of dry humor with witty banter and low tolerance to crapola. Also home to many networks sponsor threads and good recruiters/programs for all levels of experience. I said this once on there before - “Every Forum Needs A Larry” - And just might make him a t-shirt that says that oneday… Known not to sleep for 3 days because he actually PM’s just about everyone/anyone for any reason or just to help, or break their posting cherry, etc… (Wonder what he’s worth actually - most committed employee I’ve ever seen)… Kudos to you guys, sorry I’m not there as much, get an easier to remember domain and I’ll stop wasting time trying to get there and giving up .. . .. Jokes.

6. WickedFire GAY MARKETING FORUM review - Visit: http://www.wickedfire.com/
Two words - HOLY SHIT - “They can actually get away with this stuff?!?!” is probably the first thing you’ll think before visiting less than 4 threads. Perhaps the most diehard and down to earth AM forum - DEFINITELY NOT A PLACE FOR N00BS!! Lucky my name is Norb not noob - and although I PHAILED MISERABLY there on occasion - I’ll easily say that this is one of the best and upbeat places to mingle/stay active (just don’t transition from DP to there and you’ll be fine - maybe).

Amazing names and faces, top level industry veterans along with perhaps the most lethal dose of internweb humor you’ll ever experience… It’s like a Seinfeld episode and Kramer is 10x as fuct, mixed with many elements of ’survivor’ and a splash of ‘reality fcuk you’ daily n00by disaster pwnage…

All fun aside though - I’ve been there a little more often recently and after getting pwned myself, I’m making headway and gaining a few points with their elite .. . … i thinkz… See - if you haven’t been there you’ll think I’m an ass for calling it a gay marketing forum in the title lol, however once you get there and read some threads, you’ll see what I mean (no they are not actually gay - and no you should NEVER click on things - even when they look absolutely harmless… TRUST ME DON’T DO IT!!!) - it’s home to the most epic dickroll since the inception of the interweb, and you’ll be scarred for life!

Ok as you can see I’m really liking this one. However perhaps more than most others because it has a LOT of EDGE - kinda like me, though I’m quite tame in comparison - it’s amazing what they actually DO get away with - I won’t spoil it, and I won’t promise YOU will like it or fit in or get liked, but I will promise that it is packed with everything from black/blue/white/fcuking polkadot hat tactics, n00b guides, great threads, and an addictive humor base to boot.

6. WebmasterForums review - Visit: http://www.webmasterforums.com/
Kinda dry really, I think this was one of the ones I signed up to eonz ago and didn’t like it too much then either. It’s not that it’s bad - it’s just that I have to compare it with a LOT of other shtuff above - and that shtuff is just.. better.

Anyway - It’s got some great technoids that do seem to enjoy that side of the industry a lot more than actually making money (being a webmaster) - Not as busy as some of the others, not as intimate, and a lot of the threads are hard to decipher as it attracts a LOT of foreigners with horrible typing (god bless you all however you’re trying to break into the MARKETING spectrum in English speaking markets - you NEED to par up your writing/grammar before trying to be some expert/guru/makehmoniez ebook developer…)… Sorry but I’m giving this and DP the same playing field and user experience rating… At least this one laid out a little better and the pros/mods seems to care for the community a little more.

7. eWealth review - Visit: http://www.eWealth.com
I like it - Not as busy as many of the others, however home to many big names as well as great focused community involvement. Things to look for are the interviews with the pros, the announcements for programs/callouts to affs, and a well spread section for a few networks out there… Can’t really say too much more about it! 4.5 stars! (Good mods/good humor from senior members).

8. BlackHatWorld review - Visit: http://www.blackhatworld.com
Retarted amounts of info and ‘tools’ are available on this forum. If you’ve ever wanted to venture over to the wrong side of the digital legal tracks and see how to monetize them… this is the place to learn. It’s kinda funny actually - as my loyalty grew to this one slowly, I noticed that it’s actually filled with 80% n00bs too, most have no clue how or what all this BH stuff is, but want to eagerly learn/explore, and thus these n00bs probably (imo) evolve into amazing whitehat/greyhat marketers very quickly. I like hanging out in there sometimes because they don’t sugar coat shit, they don’t tollerate dumbasses, they explore and document sooo many tactics that you’ve probably never thought to do (and will probably be too chicken shit to try).

Once you get your initiation out of the way it’s smooth sailing… Not nearly as ‘bad’ as you’d think re the people or the vibe. Cheers to the admins/mods there they’ve been great to me (had a bunch of my shit shared there, and they actually have a blacklist for people like me to add their progs to make sure members don’t share them or they get banned - woot! And of course - I had to learn the hard way - everyones initiation is different)…

Damn I gotta run, was hoping to do at least 10 - perhaps I’ll do volume 2 later though I probably won’t… So in closing - yes I’ll probably still poke my head into all xx forums, no I probably won’t be signing up to anymore, HELL NO will I NEVER be paying for them like many dumbasses do, and HELL NO I don’t think I’ll be making my 2000th post at DP anytime soon…

I tried to raw - sorry if any of you owners read this and don’t like it - perhaps my own forum will now be under scrutiny but that’s fine mine is still a baby and has no $ agenda other than to honestly make my team money - because they sell my products they also make me money - so it’s in my best interest to make sure my forum, my family and my crew earn well, learn well and grow fast… /shameless plug.

<forumdiet> bigtime </forumdiet>

Norb.

It’s quite amazing every now and then when you sit back and think “I’ve grown recently, I might not be where I want to be just yet, but BOY am I glad I’m not where I used to be!”. The more often you have these moments, the more often you attain… goals, happiness, growth.. .. …

I’ve been hanging out with some old friends lately and doing my best to be a positive influence to them not really to achieve their financial success to but to take their ‘person’ to the next level… It’s heartfelt to have many types of friends and acquantances (sp?), and seeing how one person grows differently from the next. I think those that are successful, are truly the ones that first and foremost are aware of their surroundings, their outreach potential, and their inner circles. It’s no wonder why most Harv. Grads become successful, most are surrounded by success from birth. Well - with that said, there are just as many success stories that derive from the ghettos, the dropouts, the underdogs - and THAT is what I want to ramble on about today.

Simply put - when you go through life being the underdog, you learn to be creative, stretch limits, it’s not a choice for you it’s just reaction/survival… Well in our eco-system it isn’t that much different is it? The bigger inner circles are well coordinated, they pass the hat, they run the lists, they acquire HUGE customer bases quickly, they learn to monetize as a collective with an independent yet collective nature… And then there are the 97% or so that are always trying their best to get through the clutter and start to become successful with their online ventures. So you think - can an underdog or newbie really make it nowadays???

In truth - it’s like asking can you quit smoking if you really wanted to? Could you give up coffee or candy or any other habit? I’m sure you can if you ‘REALLY’ wanted too or had to! The journey through manifestation and attracting your desires and goals doesn’t come from desire alone, it comes passion, determination, believing in yourself and sometimes willingly put yourself in a pressure zone where you must ‘make it or break it’ - because we all work best when we are under pressure or ‘need to survive’…

If you were to think you have 10 days to raise 5K or else…(put horrible scenario here) - it would be similar to saying ‘you have 4 months to live if you don’t stop smoking’ - ummm uh oh - I must survive!!! I’ll QUIT RIGHT NOW!! This is rather extreme, but that’s what it comes down to when you put yourself in a pressure spot, and you WORK your brain like never before to acquire your want/need. The will to acquire your goals is about 90% of your actions and the remaining 10% is reactions you will generate. The more actions you take that equate success, and the more times you can overlap them, the more often success will be in your favor. If you’re the underdog, chances are you’ll learn a lot through trial and error, and that’s what makes coming out on top even more rewarding - saying you did it from nothing! Homegrown baby!!

No matter how big you get, how much you earn, you’ll always look up to somebody(ies), and it’s good to have mentors and those you respect around you not just for financial goals but for bettering your person too. If you surround yourself with nothing but miserable negative people, chances are it won’t take long for it to rub off on you - alternatively the more you focus on taking in more success and pure souls into your life, the more success you will deploy with your daily actions by default. Do your best to be the positive leader you know you are, when growth happens - it doesn’t announce itself - it just happens. However in order for it to happen, it’s like the old lottery saying ‘you can’t win if you don’t play’ - so the more often you practice and play, the more chances you have at winning and attaining your goals in life.

I’ve manifested recently from a spot in life that me by a grip, and has finally let go - a little personal but it involves a woman and a ring so… yeah - During this growth I made myself focus on my career/business and really forget about women, and in turn it’s like a) women smell it on me and want me more b) i’m really focused and much less distracted c) I’ve become even more aware of my limits and success potential. When I heard recently that she’s getting married to someone else it was that final bit of closure - and I got a chance to reflect on everything that has happened in my life for the past year… .. . A hidden blessing in disguise, and I find myself sitting back yet again saying, “I might not be where I want to be just yet (underdog smiley here), but I’m sure glad I’m not where I used to be”! It was a nice ring too

When success happens, acknowledge it, accept it, don’t analyze it too much just reset your goals and keep improving/optimizing/networking/duplicating and all the other fancy marketing words you know… Manifest yourself starting yesterday and think of this blog post the next time you realize something great has just happened, and not so inadvertently… rather through the seed you planted via your own laws of attraction.

So what’s my secret? Lot’s of sleep! Lot’s of networking, not being naive to what is available to me, taking advantage of this thing called the internet you might have heard of - and for my offline personal ventures I just try my best to be a great person, honest, loyal, transparent, a good leader, and do my best stay happy 100% of my day, lately it’s happening more and more. The more honest you are with yourself and the more open minded you can stay to achieving extraordinary goals, the better your chances at achieving them - simple!

Daydreaming is out of style - making those dreams a reality is, in fact, your own reality if you choose to acquire it and stop at nothing (within reason!) to getting it. Remember being a baby and crying to get what you want? Probably not but you’ll agree - IT WORKS! While I don’t endorse that you start crying out loud and screaming that you want success - that’s how much you need to want it day in and day out if you’re a hungry underdog - and you WILL eventually - get what YOU want!

Motivation is key and not wasting time is also key. Perhaps take a good look at your daily tasks and figure out how many things you do on a daily basis that can be eliminated to equate to a) more time to yourself enjoying life b) more time to lucrative ventures and actually applying steps to complete tasks c) filter out the BS in your life and focus on your bigger goals - manifestation is incremental yet does not happen on it’s own, filtering is important to the underdog as well as the experienced gurus of our time. Motivate yourself and replace negative time with applying those motives to profitable/gainers in your life.

A cool one liner I’ve heard recently: “You only get ONE shot at this ‘life’ stuff - make the most of it! Live today like it was your last, you’ll find yourself doing some pretty crazy things”.

Cheers family, best of luck with your next manifestation.

OOPS! I just finished saying I wouldn’t paste another screenshot until I was at my next goal - I CAN’T BELIEVE THE DAY I JUST HAD! While I’m use to seeing nice numbers this is my personal best to date achievement for one day as a publisher or an affiliate.

What The Hell??!?!?!?!!?? HOW/WHERE/WHO/LET ME IN!!
Ok ok - so here is the scoop. Publishers rarely do this (post account earnings) - While I had to mask out some numbers you can see that today (yesterday now - I’m such a night owl!) has an ENORMOUS bar next to it! While the last few days were somewhat plateaud at high 3 figures per day. So what happened? Where did all this come from? Well quite a few things happened in a lucrative sequence… .. here is the scoop.

When you launch a product, you simply cannot predict what will happen sometimes, who you will meet, how you will be found, where your competitors truly make their money, which superaffiliates to try to recruit, what other pros are doing, what lists your promo ends up on - blah blah blah… As your site grows, you start to acquire a ton of customer inquiries, feedback, affiliate support scenarios, JV and list scouting etc.

While our program is doing wonderful and everyone is happy, we wanted to take it to the next level and after being live for a month had plenty of new resources to add to our sites. Thus we both revamped our already profitable site (i know, don’t touch what’s not broken, and we took a risk, boy oh boy am I glad we did!), scouted for a few new JV’s, and set today as another promo/mini relaunch day for many new partners to blitz together…

So having said that - The combination of revamping, constant tweaking, recruiting, and continuously conversion mastering the whole operation - today equated to an unbelievably profitable day! Even most of our affiliates got a boost in sales from both those getting blitz material and researching before buying, and from their existing campaigns now pointing at an even sharper page. It’s amazing what small yet important little changes can do to a site. If you’re a publisher and or you work with an AM for your program - stay close to them, learn what you can from them - and make sure they know what they are talking about not just recruiting you to garbage programs!!

When you’re an affiliate within a new niche and profitable campaign, you always keep your ear to the streets - you seek out hot new products, and though some don’t like jumping onto a hot bandwagon, let this be a testament to ‘there is no such thing as a saturated market if you know how to market’.

Cheers family,

And yet again, I’m being brave and bold today - It’s Monday - Who says you can’t start the week off on the right foot?!! Proud moment for me as a ClickBanker. My days of reading horribly made and transcripted tutorials, fluffy ebooks/videos, and thousands of posts on various forums have brought me the first real bit of food that is worth tooting my horn over (also because the next check is almost  accounted for and it should be bigger this period - however I will try not to post anymore screen shots until I have a 20-25K  pay period…

This is from both being a publisher and affiliate - and is one of many accounts however this is one of the strongest. This year has had a few rollercoasters and some defeat analysis was indeed endured, but looking at this milestone for me it was and is all worth it.

Don’t hate on it either - it’s real - it’s possible - and anyone with a good analytical mindset or will to succeed can achieve this. Might not be the best time to mention this but I’ve only been at ClickBank since last Sept. (10mnths), however I’ve been marketing for 12 years so this isn’t exactly a newbies success, rather a refined old schooler bringing his slate up to todays times and successful business models. Let the phrase ’starving artist’ be eliminated from my vocab - at least for now while I enjoy this moment

You’d think that I would opt to get a wire transfer right? Nahhh, I don’t mind the bit of a wait to get CHECKS, they mean more to me, like it’s IN my hands, it’s less virtual, i can take a pic for inspiration, I can cash it and make the bankers themselves a lil’ jealous… whatever - I like ma’checks!!

As insane as I look in that photo - I’m giggling behind it and looking forward to the reset button to now achieve both consistency and growth at this level on multiple accounts - wish me luck until I post the next one!

Cheers family - NicheChoppers is doing big tingz - good time to get on board if you’re looking to earn from your talent/time/passion for success.

Deep Thoughts about marketing online… Never thought I’d belong to a ‘gang’… but…

I, along with 500,000 others belong to a very elusive yet blatant group of digital entrepreneurs known as todays digital cartel or mafia. We still operate on the right side of the law, and 99% of us are simply trying our best to work from home and be a soldier in the affiliate marketing arena. Equipped with complex distribution systems, lucrative and attractive recruitment systems, stealth training in the art of influence, global outreach and addictive products - we account for billions of dollars that are spent and earned each year on the internet.

It’s almost too close for comfort when you compare this industry to any world renowned underground movement.

The Top Tier: The Networks - always taking a cut from everybody - the merchants setup fees, to transaction charges, to affiliates earnings, to your earnings, to penalties, etc. etc. - they will always be the biggest earners and rule makers. Rightfully so as they are the most important ‘organizers’ of our world.

The Production Houses and Product Lines: The people behind the manufacturing and assembly of any widget you can think of both on and offline (we’re still thinking on the legal side of the tracks here). They are next most important element in this world - without stuff to sell, there would be no point in any of this right?

The Bosses: These are usually known as your AM’s (affiliate managers). They are always keeping close watch on their chapter of the gang, ensuring a proper role is made and met by each individual in their chapter. When it’s a sensitive chapter, new members must be accepted individually and many are denied access and membership time and time again. Most AM’s are praised for their leadership skills and knowledge base when it comes to our world. Some are unfortunately also participating in secret alliances within their own eco-system robbing the gang blind. AM’s are often also responsible for recruiting, in fact many times they are rewarded for getting their chapter to recruit another tier of members, as is each member that does so successfully.

The Soldiers: Ahhhhh the soldiers. You can NEVER have enough soldiers. These are the 450,000 work from home enthusiasts who either make or break the bank with their time and efforts trying to move the product pushed down through the hierarchy above. If the bosses were expected to move this much product worldwide on their own, they would grow old and gray before they accomplished 10% of what the soldiers accomplish in a day. Soldiers are the ones that really drive the fiscal earnings for the hierarchy. Without them, our eco-system would also die.

The Customers: Well, no brainer here, the entire tree above is rendered irrelevant if there are no customers right? There needs to be a demand for your gangs product. If there is no demand, you need to influence one, you need to create awareness, give some product away for free - get the word out about getting your fix quick with a new and better solution than the last one… it ALWAYS gets better, and when mass awareness is generated, mass appeal is created, and demand is instigated. Much like bombarding teens with alcohol ads, the brands that reach them the most often and relate the deepest, are the ones these teens will stay loyal to for generations… influencing awareness/appeal/demand is very much alive in any eco-system of profit.

The MONEY: Now that you’ve gone through the most important parts of the hierarchy, it’s time to look at the most of important part and whole point of this gangland fraud infested digital warzone of an eco-system, the benjamins… the food that gets shared among all the predators and prey… All of this stuff above is a huge puzzle of odd shaped and complex pieces, that when put together - paint a very detailed and organized flow of profit/food at each level. It’s not just the average computer thug that is a part of this circuit of warriors either. We are doctors, lawyers, teenagers, teachers, moms, students, and anyone in the world that is connected to the internet. We are not a rare breed, rather a very intelligent one. We understand and analyze very complex scenarios in our battleground and create road maps to money, to defeating rival gangs or pushing more of your local mass appeal products… . .. It’s a beautiful honeycomb, filled with different levels of order, everyone working against each other yet together because we realize the importance of each role in our eco-system.

Often times each level of order and conduct expected is flawed, and though the ranks of the ladder are willfully grown climbed slowly - many are plagued with disease and soldiers gone wild, or cooked bosses and policy enforcers… Some common scenarios:

The initiation: This is just like entering a gang, instead of getting your A** kicked for 30 seconds, you get the label ‘newbie’, and must endure great agony via absorbing and dissecting countless bulls**t ebooks, videos, audio guides, reading forums, discovering how the eco-system works before you start learning what soldier boot camp even means…

The first hit: You finally got through your newbie days and got your first stripe by assigning yourself your first contract and task for your gang - to go out there and create an awareness campaign for your chosen product to push - and finally - you successfully converted your very first customers. You now understand and have proven the system is indeed real and alive, and thus you pledge allegiance that this gang is worth the blood in blood out… errr.. the money/time in - money out risk, you decide to dedicate the next phase of your life into this. By now you are usually close with an AM or a boss, have shown loyalty to a network and a production house, and have many allies/soldiers you have created alliances with.

Your first bit of real food: You’ve been hungry, you’ve been through fluctuations, you’ve set a big return on your hits and finally - you got your first check in the mail that’s worth mentioning or showing proudly to your mates/family - this is your first badge of honor. Your first reward worthy of an ear to ear smile and a little celebration before heading back into the battlefield.

Your brilliant idea. You’ve been a great soldier and one day get hit with an idea like a brick at your head - YOU are going to become a boss… and you will either step on toes and come out on top as one of the self appointed leaders with loyalty - OR - you will get shot down by other leaders, or by networks, or by soldiers, or even by no fault of your own however the ‘demand’ part of the equation above just doesn’t fall in your favor - so you crawl back into your soldier uniform and give it a few more big contracts before attempting THAT again.

Getting Robbed: Not at knife point, and not for your shoes or wallet… not at night in an alleyway either - EVERY single part of our eco-system gets robbed in many shady and carefully planned ways. For every smart CEO and security specialist, there is an equally smart dark side leader - just itching to get in on your loopholes, your products, your earnings. It’s simply a part of our nature. Some robberies are much worse than others, however luckily there is no violence or life loss in our jungle - simply bandwidth, virtual losses, financial losses and reputation, the odd time the robbers end up in jail however usually they are just kicked out of the gang with no help from bosses, and are left hungry/stripped of their recent rewards and food.

Getting out of the game: It’s tough, it’s an addiction, it’s all some know and want to know. Getting discharged as a soldier in this field sucks, but that doesn’t make you want to stop usually… Making money on the web is more than a hobby to most, and is a full time living to many. While it has it’s rude awakenings and comes with a need of a strong stomach and will to survive - it can be QUITE a lucrative journey if you belong to the right chapter, are loyal to your bosses and respect the morals/ethics and rules of the top tier organizers. None the less the turnover rate in this eco-system is HUGE, and is mostly among the soldiers, hence the constant and never ending supply of new gangs and bosses keep showing up trying to recruit to their gang - many fade quickly along with their whole chapter.

Even deeper than money: What thrives all this buzzing around above that goes deeper than the green monster? The yearning to set yourself free from the modern day slavery, as even sitting in front of a computer writing on this blog is not as beautiful as the beach and palm trees I should be sitting at. The keyword here = SUCCESS. << As long as there is the ability to be better and more stable than the next person, and as long as there is awareness/influence/demand/instigation, there will always be an uneven and viral influence of greed, hunger, growth, and addiction to success. As much as I preach it - I too, am still hungry for more, content but truly looking forward to the days I can spend less time in front of a screen and more time enjoying this planet and its wonders without the need of ANY eco-system but the one I create for myself at will… Cheers to that day, and may each and every one of you reach it too.

Bless you all, take a deep look at yourself and figure out what role you play in this - and if you’re new and have no clue what I just rambled about here - chances are it’s a good thing today, as this shark infested pool we call marketing is a rollercoaster ride, and fear will eat away at any man that entertains it - so if you’re looking to get into this eco-system please bring back up (time and money), please bring patience (willingness to learn and grow, and get scammed, and fail, and and and), please bring your A+ game, and please play by the rules of not only the top tiers, but of the unspoken rules of the digital streets too.

I’m not even sure how to start this entry, other than saying that this past weekend catered to an interesting digital theft scenario not in my backyard, but more like my bedroom…

While doing a part of my daily geeking session - msn pops open with a message “Hey - “LINK” << Your product is being shared” or something or other - I click - and sure enough - I come to a blackhat forum where I am actually a member (for various reasons, and this being one of them), and see one of the members actually posting my download page - not only that - but I notice a TON of products that are jacked/cracked/shared via 3rd parties, etc., and everyone gets repped/thanked/etc. for finding the new gold, the new gems, the expensive programs, the stuff these scavengers will goob all over and download like crazy…

So - I sit back in my seat, and I think to myself “When I signed up here, I wondered if I was going to see my own stuff someday, and here I am, here it is, time to react”… I’ll tell you now - most publishers would probably do this

*Email the forum owner to remove the thread and add this to their ‘do not share’ list.
*Change the location of everything, perhaps put the files onto a totally different server.
*Perhaps expose this incident to the appropriate authorities (if there are any).
*Seek some type of compensation and immediate damage control.
*Perhaps document everything tightly for a week quietly, and then litigate the forum owner.
*Stay quiet about it and never say a word to preserve their pride and ‘unhackable claims’
**Insert other reaction here_______________

So I really thought to myself, you know - there probably IS another way to handle this without having to do any of the above, and to have karma work on my side here. It didn’t take much thought before simply changed a few things around on my server, but not enough to realllllly deprive that community of having it, just to make them work for it a little bit if they really want it. So here is what I did, and here is what happened…

*I post a quick hello and “hey this is my product, I’m flattered that a BH forum thinks my stuff is good enough to steal…”, and introduce/plant a little seed to cause a good buzz here - I wanted to have fun with this - I know I’m not bulletproof, if these guys are going stop at nothing to get my goods, I will at least take the good karma that comes from it, I’ll educate these cats on what and how good karma works, and I’ll flip this whole thread around into a promo for me by the time we’re done with it…
*A member advises that I ask the mod to put my product on the ‘do not share’ list, which I still might do, but for now - this little thread and theft is actually NOTHING MORE to me than some bandwidth… so I point out that since the thread was made, I am noticing a bump in my affiliates, an affiliate sale was recently generated, my site is getting more traffic, and without having to go against the skewed TOS, I successfully managed to now turn this into a full on recruitment tactic and networking opportunity - you can’t BUY the kind of publicity and attention this OP just gave me… so I gave him rep for it instead of freaking out on him for jacking my product. I also mention that people are free to PM me and I might be happy to just give them the link/product anyway… Perhaps to challenge them and myself, and to see if in fact any of them would PM me (within 48 hours - 4 PM’s - 29 jacked downloads as I left the location of the files the same and kinda liked watching my traffic logs to see the various creative ways these guys are getting to my page - taught me a lil’ here and there - thanks boyz).

*Next day - wake up to see many of the members leaving really heartfelt messages regarding all my programs i.e. “I love your sales pages”, “I second that”, “Hey great graphics”, “next compliment here”… Perfect, this is working already - so I express my gratitude and continue to disregard my option to notify the admin to add this to the ‘do not share’ list…

Instead I’m now milking all the marketers from that forum into joining my operation - and since then many have befriended me, approached me, offered partnerships on future projects with me, and for it being a blackhat forum, well, the scavengers are indeed there but so are quite a few elite and highly respected names. I have nothing to hide by being a member there, and want you all to know that right now - I LIKE being a member of a place like that so I can see what is possible, how and where the weaknesses lie within the various systems I support/need/work with, etc. And in turn, this knowledge has made me a much stronger white hat marketer. My clients are too sensitive, the projects I touch are too sensitive, and for me to try BH techniques would/could result in huge losses so I simply poke my head in, read what/where i can, have a few ‘AHA!’ moments, and take the knowledge with me on my way out…

The paradox of the thread is this: For all the community knows, along with the forum admins, this whole thing could have been a setup

For all the community knows, I paid the OP to post this in order to plant this seed and buzz campaign.

For all the community knows, I paid the admins to allow me to operate like this - after all its a black hat forum right?

For all the community knows, I AM the op, behind a set of proxies with multiple marketing identities and accounts.

For all the community knows, this black hat world could have just been hacked white hat style and gotten away with it - after all it’s marketing, influence, and perception not a creed of code of ethics among theives that the truly successful manage to attain.

And - for all the community knows, this was indeed all natural including all reactions including my own - but who will EVER know the real truth? I’ll take this one to the grave with me… As I’ve stated in a previous BH post - it’s a black hat world - after all.

Hey family, I know that many of you are going to look at this post and wonder why the heck I would up my earnings so boldly or proudly… . .. See in our world (affiliate marketing) - it is very important to both document your successes and prove to the world that making a living online is MORE than possible, to further motivate yourself, and reset your goals for the next level of success… .. …

I’m proud to say that we launched a program 2 weeks ago with NO adspend, just time, talent, and people (and people skills!).

I swear under any and every law made against forgery or misconception that this screen shot is real, not edited or touched in any way, and current…

To some of you - this is perhaps average, or not enough, or you’ve made a lot more in 15 days - however to most of you - this is absolutely luda right? If you’re not into online marketing or don’t have a clue what our world is all about - as you live your life and do the 9-5 thing, then you will look at the above in awe and always wonder a) Is it real? b) Is it possible? c) Can I do this?? - The answer is ‘yes’ to all three.

In my world - I am viewed as an important player for the monetization of a program to take effect and succeed. I am an artist, a producer, a marketer, a manager, a recruiter, a publisher, an affiliate gone wild, yet I…. am NO different than YOU.

This program above - has also paid out over 30K in affiliate commission - 30K in 15 days!! The best part of all this? I get emails and messages from people all over the world that I’ve never met - thanking me for helping them here or there to adjust their campaigns and now they earn enough to do this full time and not worry about money!! Sounds like every marketing pitch out there I know… but I’m smiling and shaking my head right now as I reflect on this past two weeks, and think about the next 2 months! Some of these guys have had 1K days, some guys that did email blasts made $3-4K in 24hrs… How many others will I help potentially stop having to work? How many units of our upcoming products are now going to sell faster? How big is my affiliate pool going to get if this program is soo hot?!!

There have been times where I found myself at a bank deposing over 20K checks for one huge contract that will take me x months to produce/finish/revise/maintain/update/etc. - However THIS is 100% automated revenue - 100% clean with no spend, and the only thing I found myself doing post launch, was helping new comers pop their clickbank cherry and sending them off into the wild jungle we call affiliate marketing. Now I don’t know about you - but I would rather help people make money all day, and grow in this game, and potentially make 100K in a few months in the process rather than do work for one client and be stuck to them forever…. So now - in time - a few affiliate managers will be put into place, paid well to do what we would internally do day to day, and fully automate this so we can focus on next moves.

It’s interesting, I’m reflecting now on the xx programs that I’ve launched to date - some of them were EXTREMELY timely buildouts, long R&D sessions, extensive asset/resources for aff’s, and months of preparation… However this one wasn’t one of those.. . … this one was rather quick and we didn’t have nearly the amount of time we’d like to have pre-launch, yet it’s one of the fastest growing to date. The growth has been natural too, not one huge spike, but everyday another 5-15 new affiliates convert, and everyday our strength in the markets penetrates deeper. So kudos in turn to all of you that have stuck around through the thick and thin with any of my programs, and thank you for your involvement.

If you’re reading this, and it inspired you. I’d like you to take a second and visit my homebase where all my products are lined up ready and waiting to be monetized by people working from home/computers - http://www.nichechoppers.com - It’s not all that hard, and if you’re new, I have guides and step by steps to get you going with no money or expense (perhaps just a domain name - $10)…

Thank you family,

NC. This is a tribute to ALL marketing forums out there who have members that love to creatively and non-intrusively create padded threads, ‘pm me for more info’, second tier referrals, link bait, backlink jackarses, fake screenshot or earnings posters, PM spammers, leachers, trolls, and the 1000 other things you get called for trying to monetize a community you are trying to become one with. In honor of the few golden nuggets among these forums, please do the following:

**Anytime you see a link/pm bait thread - feel free to copy and paste this whole  message above CO/NCMEDIA into their spammy thread, elite members and n00b’s will get the picture…

Feel free to add your silly addition in a comment below, i’d love to hear the cracks and smacks you guys have seen on the forums… Cheers, Norb.
