Hello forum, I want to share with you today a nice method I used a few months ago to make some money before I moved to Affiliate marketing. I learned a lot from this forum in the past month and I think this is the moment to give some back So, you have no experience with making money online? Maybe you've read a bunch of e-books or done some courses you downloaded from torrent. But you haven't made any money, and don't/can't invest any capital upfront. What do you do? Here's a trick I pulled when I was in that same position back last year that made me $500 in one day. Tbh, it's a dick move that you shouldn't be proud of. Maybe you'll use it and bank. Maybe not. Either way, it's a fun story that made me realize the power of online business and actually did launch me into bigger and better things. What you will need: - a Facebook account - decent English skills - a shortener account (adfly) - some sort of affiliate program account. Preferably amazon. Step one: Find 50 "unofficial" fan pages on Facebook with 500K+ likes. I'd find pages related to video games, food, home, and kitchen, or celebrity fan pages. Basically, something that isn't official and you suspect might be run by a bunch of gullible high school students. Step two: Message them with a reasonable offer to buy their site. For a 1M page, I offered $8K. To my surprise, around half of the pages replied with interest. Some of them bargained up. Play it up, refuse to bargain, then budge up slightly if they don't. Here's the key: you're not actually buying it from them. You're just pretending too and being resistant to bargaining actually makes them trust you more. Use your resources to do whatever you can to make it seem that you can afford to buy their page. Step three: Ask for a one-week trial where you get to use their page as a "content creator". Be explicit about the fact that you'll be using links to track sales and determine the profitability of the page. I got around 10 pages to agree to this. Optional: Offer them some token amount/something of value in exchange for the trial run Step four: Monetize their site with link shorteners and affiliate links!!! Simply craft some posts that are related to their audience and insert your links in the posts. My best-converting posts were image posts of some sort of "shut up and take my money" type merchandise that would appeal to the audience. The fans LOVED that. Use your judgment on how much to post, and make sure not to overdo it. I can't remember if I used link shorteners and affiliate links at the same time, but I would recommend against that now Important: after each post, DOWNPLAY your earnings to the owners. I would make one of those posts and then message them something like "Wtf. Why has no one bought yet?" My earnings for one week: Adfly: ($4/1000) * ~60K views = ~$240 Amazon: 4-10% * $35,000 = ~$260 Total: ~$500. Step five (optional): After you've made your money during the one-week "trial," you can do two things. A- Complain that you didn't make any money and need another week to determine if you want to buy. B- If they haven't monetized their page (well) already, tell them you decided to buy another page but show them how much you made in one week. A few of the owners were surprised at how much they could make and either we got in a JV and both profited or they PAID me to teach them how to monetize!!! quick notice: I used Inspect to forge my profits, hahahahaha This is why I tell people who want to get started in the online space to just fucking START. JUST START. cheers
