Hey Guys, today as our gravity for http://www.FreeEnergyOptions.com FINALLY went over 30, I started feeling a little nostalgic. I went back and read this thread from start to finish... http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=977548 Do you remember the drama of 2008? Haha. There were a lot of naysayers and trash talkers in there but there were also a lot of solid peeps who commented and PM'd me, a lot of people who were serious about making a lot of money. One DP member has sold almost 500 copies of our product. He's a frequent poster on this forum and one of the most solid guys with a ton of helpful advice. To him and all the other DP'ers who have (and continue to) promote Free Energy Options, I sincerely want to say, THANK YOU! You guys rock and I'm glad we've made money together. I've said it before and I'll say it again, without you affiliates, we publisher's are nothing. I really appreciate you working with us and if there is anything any of you need, I'm only a PM or an email away. As most of you know, I answer right away. Now, to make this thread add a little bit of value to this forum, I wanted to offer a little advice to you guys just getting started in this game on how to use this forum to gain a wealth of insight. I know my post count is low but I've been making a lot of money on the Internet for about 7 years. I started out buying charm bracelets from chinese wholesalers, listing them on ebay in the UK (taking advantage of the massive exchange rate) and making a 1000% profit. It was a niche market but I was able to pull down over $100K a year for three years straight. Now I work as PHP programmer but live for marketing. I tell you this not to impress you, but to let you know that I know what I'm talking about. A word on post count, just because someone on here has 1500 (or 10,000) posts, doesn't mean they know jack about how to make money. Also, there are some guys on here who have 200 posts and probably pull in $500k a year. When I got started on here, I read (and still read) every post made by guys like Norb, Swerd, Alexs, Domainiac, and a lot more. These guys really know their stuff and operate with ethics and wisdom. That's how you make it in this business. So what am I really trying to say here? There is a lot of wisdom in these forums. Filter through all the junk, BS posts about why someone can't make a sale, or are these products a scam, and find the hidden nuggets of wisdom that are available. I mean, this stuff isn't rocket science and their is a ton of money to be made. Also, don't pay much attention to the haters. If someone spends most of their time on these forums hating on someone else's product, saying how ugly their design is, or tearing others down, chances are they aren't making any real money anyway. There are some true players, market movers on these boards who post regularly. Sniff them out, find out what is making them successful. Anyway, this post is much longer than I intended. Perhaps I should get back to making money. I'm going for a $10K pay period in October. Hopefully we will hit it. We've got a new niche product coming shortly in a very non-competive niche. The ebook is done, the designer has started and my copywriter is working away (she is amazing!). I will be letting all of my current affiliates (who's contact info I have) know about this product pre-launch but will also announce it on here. Thanks again you guys for making us a success. I wish you all the best in your marketing efforts. Now let's get out there and make some serious money. Scotty
Well done Scotty! Im glad everything is going for you. Oddly enough I have just started setting up a campaign for FreeEnergyOptions, so this is quite the coincidence!
Let me know when that product is ready. You know I am a big fan of your design. A lot of people mocked the design but they completely missed the point. I thought it was spot on when I saw it the first time and still do today. continued success
Congratulations Scotty, well i am also just starting out and you guys are the ones i look up to, God Bless you bro... earn more... learn more....
Wow guys, thanks for the positive response. Sorry for the delay in responding. It's been a wild weekend. Just found out my wife is pregnant again. Baby number 2 is on his/her way. A little freaked out but mostly excited! Sweet! If you need anything, let me know. If you're doing PPC, let me know if you want me to set up tracking on the thank you page. Will do! Affiliates who have signed up on our affiliates page will get first dibs. I want give something back to those who have already put in time/effort/money into our previous campaigns. Of course, I'll be announcing here on DP shortly after. Thanks Norb! You're a great example to follow. Thanks Greg, you'll be the first one I call...! You too bro! Remember, we were all "just starting out" at one point. That goes without saying Mikey!
Absolutely it does! Although now I'm going to hit my marketing harder than ever now. I sat down last night and white-boarded out the whole plan for the next eight months. We've had some ideas in the hopper that I plan to get out their quicker and better.
