Affiliate Marketing – Dude where’s my Campaign.

Well I’m back with another minor status update. I have to say things have been quite interesting since the last time I posted. A couple of days ago I received my first EPN check, it was incredible small but hopefully only the first to many more.
I finally jumped out of my safe zone of running email and zip campaigns and ventured off to sale kitchen appliances. I must say I think I did fairly well. On this particular appliance I was selling the payout for a conversion was $11.25. I carefully selected a hand full of keywords and setup about 4 ads to rotate between. I try to make it a habit to create my campaigns and ads the night before so that all I have to do before leaving for work is un-pause everything. Well the morning I surprisingly had conversion within the first hour of running the campaign, my spend hadn’t reached $0.35 yet, sweet! I thought hell I must have finally done something right because the day had just started. Well that was the only conversion I had that day for that appliance but my zips and email campaigns continued to sale, so overall it was a pleasant day.The second day, the exact same thing happened, I had an early morning conversion before my spend reached $0.25. What the hell, who’s behind the curtain pulling the levers.

Big smiles where on my face, I was excited and was anxious to get home so that I could try and figure out how in the heck could I increase my traffic volume? Well later on that day I received a notice that they where pulling the kitchen appliance campaign, G-Wiz!
Lesson learned, don’t get too cozy with the campaigns your running thing can change at anytime.

Well here are my numbers for March 23, 2009

MTD Revenue: $88.40
MTD Spend: $28.01
MTD Profits: $60.39
