OMG! My FIRST Clickbank+Amazon Earnings! Please tell me that I'm not dreaming!

INTERNET MARKETING

Sometimes success comes when you least expect, rite? Today I logged in my amazon affiliate account to set up a banner to promote a product. And I noticed this line:
TOTAL EARNINGS * $18.00

I cannot believe in my eyes! I click "view full report" and saw the "earning report". I ACTUALLY made 3 sales, AT LAST!!!

At that time I suddenly remembered that I also promoted a clickbank product so I logged in my clickbank account and I could not belive what I was seeing either:

I made the first sale on clickbank on Aug 31st and I did not know it LOL

Ok, the money is not much but it really motivates me to continue my IM journey!

I am so happy that I want to share with you, warriors!
I am so thankful to every little advice from you since I was a noob in IM

Tu Michael

PS: Don't CB and Amazon have notification function to let me know when a buyer buys from my affiliate link?
How can I withdraw money from CB and Amazon? Somehow I can't find the button "withdraw" anywhere. Is there a minimum payout?

You are not dreaming.

For Amazon, the minimum payout is $10 for direct desposit and $100 for checks.

When you login to your account, click on Account Settings at the top of the screen then click on Change Payment Information then it will show you the list of options.

  Hey That's great! Congrats! Keep up the good work! I always like to see other people succeed. It makes the IM world seem a little less daunting.
  
  As for your post script question
  
  I'm not sure about amazon(haven't used yet) but to get your money from click bank, click on the "Account Setting Tab" top of the click bank home page once you are logged in, then right below, under the "MY Account" link you will find a section that says "Payment Information" click the "edit"' link and you should be able to figure it out from there.
  
  Figure out what you did that worked if you don't know already, systematize it then apply leverage.
  
  Thanks

Hey Tu Michael! Congratulations!
It's a great feeling isn't it? Unfortunately, there is no notification feature for ClickBank OR Amazon, but to be honest I don't mind, it's more exciting to log in blindly and not know how many hundred dollars you have made today

With both ClickBank and Amazon, yes, there is a minimum withdraw threshold. For ClickBank it can be set as low as $50, but a small fee is deducted, and you have to receive your first 2 payments by Check. As for Amazon, they will automatically credit your account when you earning meet the minimum threshold. Also, you will notice that as you continue to make sales, your earnings percent will increase based on your success! So keep up the good work, your cut of the Amazon-cake will get higher with progress
I personally focus mainly on ClickBank, through video promotion of offers, and I rake in an easy $400-$500 a day! If I were you, I would focus my efforts there. I have written a Warrior-Approved guide you will be very interested in reading on how to achieve this, it's free for all Warriors and the thread download link is available in my signature
I wish you all the best of luck in your online income goal, and again congrats on your current success! You'll soon be earning with the big-boys!

It's strange the commision rate is so high. For $179.97 even at 8.5% (highest commision tier) you would earn less than $17, but you've earned $18.

Awesome job man!

What you gotta realize is that you are doing something right. You did something that influenced those people to click and make a purchase.

Now figure out through tracking or any way you can what it is you are doing that is making people click your links and buy. People clicked those links and bought because of something they felt, like an energy, which was probably triggered by something on your site. Find out what that is. There are free tools like Mouseflow where you can watch videos of how customers interact with your site.

Part of the key is to NOT put money on a pedestal. Money is not above you. There are gifts you have and things you do, you have an energy that when you use it right, you will feel "entitled" to have money flowing to you. Figure out what that is. It's different for each person. When you get it, then money can properly circulate to you and through you.

All the best!

Thats really wierd because I saw a huge spike in traffic on aug 31 and also made some sales. I had multiple products and for some reason all of them spiked in traffic right on august 31. Then they all dipped down a bit on sept 1st.

No idea why, but I thought that was weird.

I swear it's the screenshot I took from my Amazon Associate Account, no fake or photoshop
So it depends on products that commission rate is different? i checked it again and it showed the rate is 10%. Maybe I m lucky to choose that product

It looks like it's probably a games download as they have a 10% commision rate.

Posted by the OP on page 1.
