How I Went From $6 Profit/day to $10,000 Profit/day in 1 Month

I hate long titles, but I couldn’t really think of any other way to shorten it. At the beginning of December I wrote a post saying how I made only $186 profit in November. That’s about $6 profit per day. I listed the reasons why, and I also listed what I was going to do to completely turn it around. Was I joking?

Just a couple days ago profits on my campaigns hit $10,000/day. The offers I run are not seasonal, they actually do a lot worse around the holidays. It’s consistent as well, not 10k today and 500 tomorrow.

This didn’t happen over-night, it took some time, but in 1 month I increased my profit by 166566%! I’ll do my best to share as many of the reasons why I was able to do this :

Hard work. I had to just buckle down and choose not to be lazy and do some work. The next challenge is staying hard at work, as the more money you make, the easier it is to become lazy.

Play the hand I was dealt. Last month one of the big reasons I tanked was the breakup with my girlfriend. Was I able to overcome that, forget about it, and not think about it all month? Nope, I wasn’t. Trying to do something like that is completely impossible, something like that will take months. What I did realize is that all you can do is play the hand you were dealt. If you’re dealt what seems like a crappy hand, don’t cry about it. Man up, take what’s good from it, and play it out to the best of your ability. I had lost the relationship portion to my life which definitely sucks more than anything, but I realized what I had left, and what I had left was business. Instead of crying about what I lost, I learned to make the best of what I had.

Focused on 1 offer. Yep, I don’t have 10 campaigns making $1,000/day. I have 1 campaign making $10,000/day. I focused all my power and concentration on 1 thing, and it paid off. I’m still going to work on scaling what I have and getting that to $15-20k/day and ride that out as long as possible.

Focused on traffic that works. My last post was about some smaller traffic sources that simply weren’t converting. I got ripped on by a few people about it, but hey rip away. I have 2 huge sources of traffic. One is Google, and the other I’m not going to tell you :). Rather than try and fight to get the 10 other sources to all work, I just scaled and raped the two big ones that were working.

Focused on volume over conversion. I tested a few pages and some variations to find the best converting page and ads, but most of the work has just come from working on more volume. Right now the revenue is around $19,000 for $10,000 profit, so I’m happy enough with that. But with volume potential as high as it is, it’s more worth it to work on that. So every day is used making new ads, new campaigns, different pages, etc.

Those are the main reasons I can kind of give out without revealing too much.

I just want to prove to everybody out there that it’s completely possible to go from the bottom to the top, and FAST.

From a business perspective, last month was the worst month ever. This month was the best month ever. Affiliate marketing is all about roller coasters, I just have to make sure to stay at this peak as long as possible. Where do I go from here? I’m not changing a thing, I’m just going to scale scale scale. The first week of December I was happy when it was doing $700 profit/day. In a week or so it was up to $3k, then jumped in another week to $5k, then in about 3 days up to $10k. I’m just going to keep on churning out the traffic and hoping I don’t get slapped lol.

Oh and my employee did nothing to help me make the money, I did it all myself he did nothing. I’m probably going to just fire him.

Happy New Year!

    HaHa. So true. It’s a never ending string of excuses and insults.

    The mistake these doubters are making is that it doesn’t matter if you really did or did not make that amount of money. The important FACT is that it’s POSSIBLE and this post should open their eyes and motivate them to do it for themselves. Take it or leave it.

  2. i’ve been there, and from experience, i kno its hard to bounce back and focus on ur work when u got other shit on ur mind…way to not wallow in ur on sorrow, and taking the negative energy and turning it into ur driving force to succeed!

    Maybe Paul is trying to get his chick back ;)

  6. January 2, 2009

    I like your third point (Focused on 1 offer). There is a tendency for internet marketing professionals to get spread too thin. Nice work honing your focus. It’s great to hear of such good results.

  7. January 2, 2009

    Good work Paul. Amazing how you can to 10k profit a day. Goes to shows us intermediate affiliates, its possible and its easy, if you give t some time.

    He could be lying, but you’re a fucking idiot if you doubt 10k/day. I’ve done 7k and plan on doing it again, all as a one-man operation. I have several friends who’ve done over 10k. Who the fuck can claim they’re an affiliate marketer and doubt 10k is possible? Dumbasses.

    I do read this blog and Paul’s a moron. lol. It’s no coincidence that this success occurred with me there. He owes all of his success to me.

    P.S. Paul, I’m better at this job than you are now.

    Hey Paul good for you for not letting the relationship affect your work too bad. I had the same thing happen, it will stop in about a month and a half.

    You should prob do like many others…create a small vid of you going in to your account. Its that simple.

    Paul, the thing is that you have to understand that when you say you are profiting 10 grand in one day, – a lot more than what 98% of the people make in a month – most of us will have some doubts…

    1. What was your initial monthly budget when you start affiliate business?
    i’ve only been doing AM for about 3 months now, and my daily budget is 20/day

    2. How to hung up with big affiliate players, how did you menage to introduce yourself to them, are there some forums where I can find them…
    there’s a buch of them out there, but the best imo is wickedfire. they guys there are really cool and kno their shit! one word to the wise…if u do ur homework, and think before u speak, then they’ll be happy to help u…its a rough crowd, and they don’t take too kindly to dumbass newb questions.

  14. January 2, 2009

  19. January 3, 2009

    I really try to believe the stuff and sincerely wish the blogger should double this year money income. Good luck. WE are proud of you.

  20. January 3, 2009

    Wow! That is a serious turn-around from the previous month! Good for you, and to the non-believers I only have this to say. If somebody can make $10,000 per day with a fart app, anything is possible!

  21. January 3, 2009

    Dude, there’s no advice to take in this thread

  22. January 3, 2009

    That’s the biggest truth to this whole page! :)

  23. January 3, 2009

    $10k a day is possible, I don’t think anyone who knows a thing about aff marketing would doubt that

  24. January 3, 2009

    Nice Job

  25. January 3, 2009

    I have had 10k profit a month. But 10k is possible. I’ve heard 50k from one of my affiliate manager. So yes 10k is possible. The only who don’t believe this either the young crowd or who don’t anything about affiliate marketing.

  26. January 3, 2009

    I don’t mean to sound jealous, but I am afraid I am just a bit skeptical about the phenomenal rise in daily figures. I think all the detractors would be less disbelieving if they had been told at least something about how this huge amount of money had been made. Not specifics, but at least some kind of hint that we could believe. Sorry, but it does take a bit of swallowing.

    Awesome and Inspirational Paul.
    You took the time to motivate and share your story with others even though I can hear the intense sadness in your writing.

    Paul, keep sharing your stories and tell the non-haters what you do and how you do it and Karma has a way of paying you back.

    And the way I see it is that with your wealth, knowledge and maturity at such early age, Girls won’t be a problem at all. Move right here to SoCal and the beaches are full of hotties :)

    Anyhow, just wanted to throw in my thanks and urge you to ignore the naysayers. Success in others brings out the worst in some…

    Best of luck to you pal and keep teaching and we’ll keep learning.

    Ed

  29. January 4, 2009

    Many people say 10k is quite possible,so I am inclined to trust the information I am reading now. Besides I have no scepticism and I am not joking at all.

  30. Golferx
    January 4, 2009

    All things are possible!

  31. January 4, 2009

    That is quite impressive- 10K/day. Keep up the good work!

  32. January 4, 2009

    How do you intend to maintain this revenue stream?

  33. Matt
    January 4, 2009

    If you people don’t believe what Paul says, then WTF are you doing here? I’ll never understand that, if you think Paul is full of shit then GFY and do something else with your life, you fucking losers, get a life

    what campaign? :)

  37. January 4, 2009

    This is one of those posts that sound great, but after you walk away from it what did I as a reader actually learn?

    That Paul is rich and good at using Adwords – tick. He’s not shy about showing off how much he made – tick…then what else did I learn? Nothing…

  38. January 5, 2009

    That is exaxctly what I’m wondering about too. Everything has an expected life-cycle, what is the expactation in this instance?

    We all noticed you ignored the comment asking for the actual “how” … if you don’t want everyone to think you’re a liar, and you are in fact NOT lying, then simply give everyone the “how” like your post title promised.

    Some things that your READERS (should be important to you) are looking for in this post upon clicking it…

    1) The difference between what you were doing, specifically, to go from $6 to $10,000 per day. This should be pretty simple to put on paper considering you were moving up pretty quickly, you MUST have found some kind of jackpot formula here.

    2) What KIND of opportunity you took part in … you don’t have to reveal your exact niche, but you can at least be vague here and you didn’t even do that. You basically told us you focused more… that’s not very compelling information for your readers

    3) What things worked for you, and what things didn’t…. specifically, and what your primary method of monetization is. Once again should be short because you stated it was ONE.

    Another reason why people may have trouble believing you is the fact that you stated all this income came from basically ONE source, when anyone who has read anything about making money online knows the people making as much money as you are claiming you are have done so by building up MULTIPLE streams of income over TIME.

    You claim to have built ONE source of income up in just about NO time flat.

    If you don’t respond to THIS comment, which isn’t the first one in the thread that has asked for an actual “how” (which is once again what your post title promised), then I think everyone will agree that you’re not being entirely honest with us.

    If all you say is true, however, great job and keep up the amazing work!

  40. January 5, 2009

    Haha, oops!

  41. January 6, 2009

    Fair play to you for letting all the comments go through.

    I reckon your next post will be – “‘ve published an ebook and you can find out how to make money in your sleep for only $99.”

  42. January 6, 2009

    Wow, $10K per day is fantastic. Good luck with keeping that much rolling in on a daily basis.

  43. January 6, 2009

    You know what they say, “The more haters you have, the more successful you probably are…”

    And if people don’t say that, I guess it’s just me lol!

    Jay

  44. January 6, 2009

    WOW! seems appropriate…. Now I’m not sure if I’m talking about the level of your success or the high number of naysayers!

    I was almost offended until you called me a “cockmuncher”. Now I don’t know what to think. *cries*

  46. January 6, 2009

    Great info, I am not to far from $2,000 day on some of my new campaigns and expect to hit 10k day this month.

  47. January 6, 2009

    BTW post an update asap so we can see you go from 10k to 20k :)

    Looking forward to it.

    No its probably that the more haters that you have means that you stepped on more peoples toes on the way up.

    When you fall down the ladder theres a snake pit waiting for you at the bottom :)

    I think the second source of traffic is either an adult site or twitter. :)
