Inspired Affiliate Marketing Challenge - Update
Ten days ago I launched the Inspired Affiliate Marketing Challenge with Amped Media. So far I’ve had 6 affiliates sign up and get approved by Amped Media, and two candidates so far have been producing earnings to compete for the prizes.
CD1369 was the first one out of the gate, getting the first application approval and generating the first few dollars in income putting him in the 1st place spot to compete for the iPod Touch 16GB . A few days later, however, CD1374 showed up on the scene and began gaining ground and fairly quickly took over the #1 spot putting CD1369 in second place.
Once grabbing the #1Spot , CD1374 hasn’t let up and seems to be creating a larger spread trying to maintain his number one spot ranking. So far the competition has brought in just under $450 in revenues which is a great start, but there is still a lot of room for growth.
The #3 spot in still completely wide open to anyone who earns ANY money at all in the competition. Even one dollar in earnings at this point will put you in the running for a Logitech G15 2-Tone Gaming Keyboard .
No Idea How to Earn Your First Dollar in Affiliate Marketing?
When I was totally brand new to Affiliate Marketing, here’s what I did. This was when I was so new to the whole game that I still haven’t earned a single dollar through the Affiliate Networks. What I did was I started talking to my Affiliate Managers on the networks. When you signed up with Amped Media you were assigned an Affiliate Manager. USE THEM! That’s what they are there for.
Tell them that you’ve signed up and you’re looking to get started on some simple offers and ask them if they could suggest a few things you could try to start earning some money through their network.
Depending on your skill level and the resources you bring to the table, I’m sure they will be able to suggest some ideas on how to get started right away.
If you’re totally stuck, leave a comment with where you’re stuck and maybe we can help you get started.
Good Luck Everyone!

How to Win an Amped Media $25 Amex Gift Card
The Inspired Affiliate Marketing Challenge is off to a great start. There is still plenty of opportunity for everyone to win some great prizes by signing up with Amped Media and competing in the challenge. Today, I am adding another way you can participate and win a prize in the competition even if you aren’t an affiliate by bringing more awareness to the competiton on your Blog.
To participate, all you have to do is write a 250+ word post, talking about the competition on your Blog and link to it with the title Inspired Affiliate Marketing Challenge .
The only stipulation is that you must have a real Blog, with at least 25 posts, and your Blog posts can’t just be Blog contest type posts. I know some people will whine about this, but I want to support real Bloggers who provide real value to people on their Blogs, but aren’t necessarily into Affiliate Marketing, and not people who simply create Blogs that provide no value just to enter into every Blog contest on the Internet. Of course if you’re in the competition as an affiliate, and you also run a Blog, you are also welcome to participate in these prizes.
At the end of the contest, after December 12th, I will do a draw for Four Amped Media $25 Amex Gift Cards from anyone who writes a Blog post talking about the challenge.
To participate, simply write your 250+ word post on your Blog, and leave a comment here telling us about it.

Inspired Affiliate Marketing Challenge
Today I had a long chat with the owner of Amped Media, a brand new Affiliate Network trying to establish themselves in the industry. Seeing as I’m fairly new to doing this whole Affiliate Marketing thing full time, it was great to see the owner take the time to reach out to me and for us to exchange some ideas on how we can mutually help each other be more successful in the industry.
After a few conversations I brought up the idea of launching an Inspired Affiliate Marketing Challenge similar to some of the ones I’ve participated in on Tyler Cruz’s site because as a new Affiliate Marketer I know how much fun it can be to win some prizes when you’re just getting started in this business. I have thought about doing something like this with other networks but the major challenge is that most people are already signed up for the other networks under someone elses referral ID’s so they wouldn’t qualify for my contest.
Since Amped Media is a brand new network, it opens up this competition to a much larger audience of people who may not have an account with Amped Media yet. Also, since it’s a brand new network it’s going to make it that much easier for you to compete and win prizes in this competition.
How It Will Work
The Inspired Affiliate Marketing Challenge will run from November 12th to December 12th, 2008. To participate you must sign up to Amped Media using my referral link so that I can track your earnings. The sooner you sign up , the more time you will have to compete in the challenge.
Once you’re signed up, all revenues that you earn through the Amped Media network will count towards the challenge, and the top 3 earners will win prizes in the "Main Category ". For more experienced Affiliate Marketers, we also have a "Super Affiliate Category " for anyone who earns above $10,000 during the challenge.
How to Participate in the Competition
- You must sign up to Amped Media using my referral link by clicking here . If you’ve already singed up to Amped Media under someone else’s referral link, you are unfortunately not going to be eligible for the contest as I can’t track your earnings.
- Earn as much as you can, promoting offers through the Amped Media network throughout the challenge. Visit this Blog often, for tips and ideas on how to make more money as an affiliate marketer and to track your standings.
- If you are in the Top 3 earners for the 30 day period, you win one of the prizes! If you earn more than $10,000 in commissions you qualify for the "Super Affiliate Category " of prizes.
*See more details below.
Prizes Up For Grabs
The prizes up for grabs in this competition will be broken down into two different categories.
The first category is a "Super Affiliate Category" which will mostly target Affiliate Marketers who are already fairly established in the Affiliate Marketing industry and who are able to generate upwards of $10,000/month in revenues.
The second category is the "Main Category" which targets newer Affiliate Marketers who are just getting started in the industry. Even if you haven’t made a single penny in Affiliate Marketing yet, you can still totally compete! Having the two different categories allows everyone to compete at their own level.
"Super Affiliate" Categories
1st Place: Earnings of $50,000+
ASUS G Series G50VT-X2 Gaming Laptop

To qualify to win prizes in the "Super Affiliate" categories you must meet the minimum earnings during the competition period. For the 1st Place Prize, you must earn at least $50,000 through Amped Media throughout the competition period.

Main Category
The "Main Category " of prizes is for Affiliates that are just getting started in Affiliate Marketing. These prizes are available to be won by the Top 3 competitors in this challenge regardless of their earnings level . What this means is that unlike the "Super Affiliate Category" prizes above, for the Main Category prizes there is no minimum earning requirement to be able to compete. You could technically be in the running by generating $1 in revenues if nobody else earns more than that.
1st Place: Apple Second Generation iPod Touch Black 16GB
Be the top earning affiliate in the Main Category of the competition and you can win this Apple 2nd Gen 16GB Black iPod Touch. You can use it to play songs, play games and play movies. Click here for more info on the iPod Touch.
2nd Place: Sony Cyber-Shot 7.2 MegaPixel Digital Camera
The 2nd place winner in the competition will win this Sony Cyber-Shot 7.2 MegaPixel Digital Camera with a Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens with 4x Optical Zoom / 2x Digital Zoom.
3rd Place: Logitech G15 2-Tone Gaming Keyboard
The 3rd Place winner in the competition will win this Logitech G15 Gaming Keyboard.
Great Start Into Affiliate Marketing
This is an awesome opportunity not only for experienced affiliate marketers, but also for the brand new affiliate just starting out. I plan on sharing some of the tips that I have learned about affiliate marketing over the coming weeks to help you earn more money with your campaigns. I’m no "Super Affiliate" either, but in my opinion it is the starting part of this business that’s the hardest. Learning to earn your first $100 and your first $1,000 is the toughest part. Once you’re there, it’s just a matter of tweaking, scaling and launching more campaigns.
I’m also a big believer in having goals to use for motivation and to help focus your efforts. Having a Prize attached to a goal can be a great motivational tool, so take the time to utilize this opportunity. If you’re a new affiliate, and you’re just getting started, the real prize you will get for participating in this competition is the learning experience of making your first few hundred or thousand dollars with Affiliate Marketing, and that knowledge will last you a lifetime. If you’re already an intermediate or "Super Affiliate", this is a great opportunity to test out some of the offers available on this network and to win some great prizes doing what you’re already doing!
A Bit More About Amped Media
Over the coming days and weeks I’ll spend a bit more time talking about Amped Media and how you can utilize their system to make money online as an affiliate marketer, but today I just wanted to give you guys a really quick and brief overview of their system and how it works.
Their setup is pretty much the same as any other affiliate network. You sign up for an account, and once you’re approved you get access to their system. Once you login, you’ll be able to choose from hundreds of different offers to promote.
If you currently run a Blog or a website, the process of earning some money could be as simple as taking a banner ad listed in one of their offers and placing it on your Blog or Website. Whenever someone clicks on the banner and signs up for the offer or makes a purchase you make an affiliate commission.
Amped Media Features:
- Personal Affiliate Manager: When you signed up with Amped Media, you will be assigned a Personal Affiliate Manager who is there to help you make the most money possible through their network. These people are here as a resource to answer your questions.
- Hundreds of Quality Offers: Although Amped Media already has over 250 high quality offers, one of the main points that I discussed with the owner is that they are absolutely dedicated to doing everything in their power to bring you whatever types of offers you’re looking to promote if they don’t already have it on their network. All you have to do is just talk to your Personal Affiliate Manager and they’ll do what they can to help you out.
- Accelerated Payments: Amped Media pays out based on Net 15 terms. What this means is that for any money you earn (minimum $25) during the month of November as an exmaple, will be paid out on December 15th. In another review I read that there is a 60 day waiting period for Amped to get paid by their advertisers before they will pay out you as an affiliate, but in my conversation with their owner today they assured me that this is NOT the case. Any money you make in a given month gets paid out by the 15th of the following month. This is great news, especially for people doing PPC marketing. You have the option of receiving you funds via Check, Direct Deposit, Bank Wire or Paypal.
- Service, Service, Service: Amped Media wants to distinguish themselves in the industry by providing the highest quality customer service in the industry. Remember that as an affiliate marketer, the more money they can help you make, the more money they make so they’re here to help in whatever ways they can, even if you’re just getting started in the industry.
Good Luck and Get Started Right Away!
Get started right away to take advantage of having the most time to compete in the competition. Sign up today and start promoting some offers. Remember that for the Main Category of prizes, there are absolutely NO MINIMUM earnings required for the main prizes. Since this is a new network and this is a brand new challenge, there probably won’t be a lot of competition for you to win prizes.
Click Here to Sign Up for Amped Media
*** Disclaimer: Although we don’t anticipate this to happen, Amped Media and Inspired Affiliate reserve the right to exchange prizes for something of equal or greater value should items not be available. Participants can only win one prize in the competition in either the Super Affiliate Category or the Main Category, but not both. Terms subject to change. To qualify, participants must sign up using my referral link . Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Turning PPC Affiliate Headaches Into Your Advantages
When I first started getting into PPC Affiliate Marketing a few months ago I had this nagging question in the back of my mind. If this line of business is so easy, why aren’t the "Super Affiliates" completely dominating the playing field? Even if they don’t have time personally to see to every campaign, if these crazy margins of profit are out there for the taking, why isn’t everyone taking them?
What I’ve discovered is that there are a lot of headaches out there, especially if you’re a PPC Affiliate. For example, as a PPC Affiliate, one of the most important parts to running a successful business is being able to track everything. You need to thoroughly study your numbers all the way accross from Impressions to Sales and always be split testing and tweaking your campaigns.
The challenge with all of this is that full testing and tracking is not always available at your fingertips. For example, some affiliate networks offer the ability to place tracking pixels on the sales pages of the offers you are promoting automatically as part of the toolset you have access to in the back end of their systems. However, those networks are in the minority. Most of them don’t give you that option unless you specifically ask for it, which can be a pain in the ass. It would be nice to be able to place a pixel on the sales page even before you launch a campaign, but that doesn’t work with everyone out there so that is a headache you have to put up with.
Another major headache is when you find offers that you’d like to promote that are not part of any network out there, but simply just use something like 1Shopping Cart to do their affiliate sales. Most of these types of "private" offers don’t even give you the ability to track "SubIDs" which means you can’t even track your keyword stats properly, let alone get a tracking pixel on the sales page.
The three major headaches I run into as a PPC Affiliate Marketer are:
- Lack of offers that allow search marketing. Yes you can login to affiliate networks and see thousands of offers, but if you remove all offers that don’t support "Search", and then you remove all offers that are not part of "Diet Offers", "Payday Loans", "Ringtones" and "Zip Submits", what are you left with? Not much. Even with all the networks already out there, finding good offers out there to promote, is still a major headache in my opinion.
- When you do find "private" offers that have implemented their own "affiliate system", most of them just slap something together that has bare minimum functionality but offers no easy way to do "SubID" tracking, not realizing that without "SubID" tracking most PPC affiliate marketers will just move onto something else.
- Sometimes you will find "private" offers with SubID tracking or even good offers on the networks which already have SubID support, but they don’t have a simple and easy way (I’m talking 20seconds of setup), to place tracking pixels on the sales pages of the offers you’re promoting.
Turning Headaches Into Advantages?
Because of these three headaches, most PPC marketers will simply ignore any offers that don’t give you the ability to track SubID’s and put pixels on the sales pages. For example, lets say you find a product on the Internet that you’re very interested in personally so you purchase it and love it. You find out they have no affiliate program already setup, so you move on. Or, lets say they do have an affiliate program setup, but they are using a system that doesn’t support SubID’s and tracking pixels, so you move on.
It’s too hard to be a profitable PPC Affiliate Marketer without these things in place, right?
Well, I think this is where we can seperate ourselves from everyone else. See, as a PPC Affiliate Marketer you pretty much know that most people who do PPC will just stay away from these kinds of things. They’ll move onto "Easier Waters". But what if we could turn these "disadvantages" around for ourselves and figure out ways around them, and then use that fact as an advantage for ourselves.
Meaning, what if you could figure out an easy way to help the vendor install SubID tracking for you? Or they could place a tracking pixel for you? You know that most people will be way too lazy to do that. If these types of things are not handed to them on a silver platter, they won’t bother. They’ll move onto the other offers that already support things like that.
That’s all I’m going to say about that. Something to think about.

3rd Place in Affiliate Marketing Challenge 4
Tyler Cruz ran another Affiliate Marketing Challenge in October for generating the most revenue through the Market Leverage network and I ended up winning the 3rd place prize which is an 8GB iPod Touch.
My revenues through Market Leverage for October were $2,646.00 which was over $1,100 more than my previous month’s revenues from Market Leverage.
Actually, the second place winner beat me by only $27.01, but I don’t really mind because I wanted the 3rd place prize much more than the 2nd place prize. The second place prize was a speaker system, but I already have a nicer one anyways.
Tyler is running another competition again for this month and I want to hunt for the Playstation 3 he’s giving away in first prize or the Dell 24-Inch monitor in second prize. Time to step things up.

Market Leverage Gift Cards are Pretty Cool
A few days ago I wrote about receiving my contest winnings from Tyler Cruz’s contest for last month. Because I qualified under two categories (New Affiliate Competition + Main Affiliate Competition), I ended up winning two different prizes. One of them was the Flip Mino which is super cool. I’m just starting to use it now and will be using it to post some video’s on my Blog soon.
However, the other prize I won was two gift cards. One was for $50 and the other for $100. What’s cool about these new credit card type gift cards is that they’re basically just like cash. You don’t have to use them at a specific store, you can pretty much use them anywhere major credit cards are taken. I kind of prefer that, because store-bound cards force you to purchase something only at that store. These credit card type gift cards are universal.
That’s a good thing, because Market Leverage would have never guessed how I would end up using these gift cards. A few days back I launched my third active Blog (www.AquariumFishWorld.com ), and today I was out at a Big Al’s Aquarium Supply store eyeing a super nice 55 Gallon Fish tank with a really nice stand and I was debating whether to get it or not, when I remembered that I had those two gift cards in my wallet that I totally forgot about. With $150 of the cost covered by the gift cards, it was a no-brainer!
I asked the clerk if they take American Express and about 15 minutes later I was driving home with a brand new fish tank and stand in the back seat of my car. The clerk has never seen Amex gift cards with Market Leverage printed on them, so he made a comment about the uniqueness of them, but besides that they worked fine without any problems. I wasn’t 100% they would just because I’m in Canada.
Did you guys know that you can get some Market Leverage gift cards as well? As an affiliate with them, you automatically earn them by promoting offers through their network. For example, if you end up generating $2,500 in commissions with them in one month, they’ll send you a $25 Rewards Card. I was wondering what I’m going to use my Rewards Cards for when I read about their rewards program, but now I know - I’ll buy fish with them!
If you haven’t signed up with Market Leverage yet, why not? It doesn’t cost anything to sign up, and even if you’re not ready to be a super affiliate yet promoting your own PPC offers, once you have an account with them what you CAN do is start referring other people to Market Leverage and earn 5% of everything those people make through Market Leverage. If you’d like to sign up with them, just follow this link: Market Leverage

Tyler Cruz and Market Leverage Contest Winnings Are Here
Last month I lost the competition I was running with Richard Bonner, but actually I didn’t really lose. The reason I really didn’t lose is two-fold.
Firstly, the entire goal of the competition for me was to attract some traffic and buzz around this new Blog. My competition with Bonner turned out to resonate really well with most of my new visitors and a lot of them ended up signing up for my email list, my RSS feed or both. The end result? I now have 100 RSS readers on this Blog. That is the fastest 100 RSS subscribers I have built on any of the Blogs I have ever started. So really, even though I had to pay out the cash for the competition, it was a great investment to build my initial seed of readers.
Secondly, while Bonner was busy competing with me for the $175 prize pool to give away to his readers, I was secretly competing in another competition over at Tyler Cruz’s Blog. I ended up placing 1st Place in the "Top New Affiliates" category and 2nd Place in the "Top Main Affiliates" category. By winning that competition I ended up scoring some cool prizes. Here’s what I got:
The prize pack that Market Leverage sent me included a Flip Mino which is super cool because I’ve been wanting to get one for the longest time (they’re hard to find in Canada!), a Flip Video mini tripod and a soft pouch neoprene case for the Flip as well. In addition to that, they also sent me a $50 Amex card and a $100 Amex card. Not a bad score!
I want to thank Tyler Cruz for running the Affiliate Challenge over at his Blog and Dina Riccobono and Rebecca Mercurio over at Market Leverage for sending me the cool prizes, as well as Erick Bright at Market Leverage for answering my "noob" affiliate marketing questions.
THANKS!!!

Using Google AdWords Editor
If you’re still solely using the web based Google AdWords interface to setup and manage all of your AdWords campaigns, you’re nuts.
A lot of people still don’t know that Google actually offers a free offline toolset which allows you to seamlessly interface with your Google AdWords account and basically do everything you can do online much more quickly and efficiently.
The tool is available as a free download through your AdWords Account.
If you have no clue what I’m talking about, this is what the Google Adwords Editor looks like.
Here’s where you download it: Google AdWords Editor
Part of the training taught inside PPC Classroom 2.0 dives deep into using Google AdWords Editor to launch your campaigns. For example, if you want to launch a new campaign with small, tighly focused AdWords Groups, you can use AdWords Editor to do this quickly and painlessly. The tool allows you to work offline, set everything up exactly how you want it to be and then with the click of that "Post Changes" button you see above, everything gets uploaded to your AdWords account.
What can you do with Google AdWords Editor? Here are just a few of the many things you can do with it:
- Add/Update Multiple Keywords - Add keywords in bulk. Update bid prices for specific keywords in bulk, etc.
- Keyword Opportunities (beta) - Fetch new keyword ideas based on a seed keyword, check the Volume and Competition of the keywords and quickly add them to a campaign.
- Keyword Multiplier - Type in "chicken", "beef" and "veggie" into List1. Type in "hotdog" and "burger" into List2. Click one button and it generates "chicken hotdog", "chicken burger", "beef hotdog", "beef burger", "veggie hotdog" and "veggie burger". Why do you need such a thing? Well, lets say you’re launching a dating niche campaign. You could paste the name of 100 cities into List1 and the word "singles" or "dating" into List2 and it would generate a whole bunch of city-targeted dating keywords for you. It’s possible to do this in Excel as well, but this is easier.
- Advanced Bid Changes - Ever wanted to increase your $0.37-$0.52 bids by 17% but didn’t want to manually calculate each fricken one? You can do that with one click here. You can also "Raise maximum CPC bids for inactive keywords to their minimum CPC bids".
- Keyword Grouper - Ever just DUMP a whole bunch of keywords into an AdGroup just to see which ones will get any traction? Well, the Keyword Grouper can help you group your keywords into smaller, more tightly packed AdGroups which could help you to improve your Quality Score and CTR.
- Much much more…
I only covered a couple of keyword related functions but there is a tonne more to play with in there and I didn’t even go into the functions for AdGroups and Campaigns or the statistical reporting available.
I actually learned how to use AdWords years ago so I’ve been used to the Web Interface for a long time, and even though I had AdWords Editor installed for a while now, I honestly haven’t really been using it as much as I should have until recently. It was not until I started going through all the training in PPC Classroom 2.0 that I really started to play around with some of the super useful features of AdWords Editor.
I still login to the Web Interface from time to time to look at certain things, but I’m finding myself using the AdWords Editor more and more now and I keep finding cool neat little tricks you can do in there that are not available in the Web Interface.
If you haven’t been using AdWords Editor because you’re so used to the Web Interface and have been too lazy to learn something new, I really suggest you invest some time mastering this tool. It can be a huge time saver. And hey…it’s Free!
Here’s where you download it: Google AdWords Editor

Initial Review of PPC Classroom 2.0
So I have now had access to PPC Classroom 2.0 for two full days and I’ve had a chance to go through the content. What I mean by that is that I’ve actually finished the course. Well, that’s not entirely true.
The course comes with 9 modules to start with and after going through each module there is a short 10-question quizz after each module to test your comprehension of the material being taught. Two nights ago I completed the first 5 modules and today I finished off the last few modules to complete the course.
They are planning to continue adding content to the course in the coming months and expanding the community for affiliate marketers. Here’s my take on the course.
Firstly, I have to say that the interface and setup of the course is pretty easy to understand and it’s nicely organized. It’s pretty obvious what you’re supposed to do and it’s pretty simple to go through each topic in the 9 modules. I give them a big shiny yellow star for organizing it nicely.
Secondly, lets talk about the content. The content of the course to me seemed fairly elementary. There wasn’t a lot there that I didn’t already know. However, the few things that were in there which I didn’t know about are probably going to make a massive difference in my campaigns.
It’s kind of like trying to bake a cake and it keeps turning out bad, so you consult with someone about the recipe and you find out that you were forgetting one tiny, but key ingredient. What’s great about this is that the course re-affirms to me once again that I pretty much already know 99% of what I need to know to be successful in Affiliate Marketing, which is a good thing. It’s a big confidence booster when you pretty much already know what you need to know in order to be profitable.
So, right now my opinion of the course is this:
- It was a good refresher of stuff I mostly already knew.
- It’s a great course for beginners who are just starting out in PPC Affiliate Marketing.
- I did learn a few new tricks that I am willing to bet will make a huge difference in my campaigns.
- It had a confidence boosting effect to go through the course which I liked.
- It clarified in my mind that the time for learning is over and it’s now time for "doing".
- I feel like I’ve gotten my money’s worth for the $77 I paid for the course.
- I’m eagerly waiting to see what the PPC Classroom crew has in store for us to teach us more advanced stuff now that I’m "Certified Level 2" on their system.
If you’re just starting out in PPC Affiliate Marketing, you should definitely check into PPC Classroom 2.0. It’ll probably be the best $77 you spend.
If you’re already making a pile of money on PPC Affiliate Marketing, you still might want to check out the course because you know as well as I do that one little tip can save you way more than $77 in Google AdWords fees. Even if you just improve your click-through rates by a few percentage points or improve your conversion rates by a few percentage points, the course can easily pay for itself.
Besides, if you don’t like it… get a full refund if you want.

PPC Classroom Price Announced
Earlier today Amit and Anik had a live broadcast video session talking about the upcoming release of their PPC Classroom 2.0 course which is coming out tomorrow at 2pm EST.
Amit talked a bit about the contents of the course. The details will be released tomorrow, but here is what I got from the video as far as a basic outline of what will be in the course:
- Module 1 - Market Research
- Module 2 - Keyword Research Strategies
- Module 3 - Direct Link / Landing Pages
- Module 4 - Unique Strategies / Amit’s Methodology
- Module 5 - Landing Pages
- Module 6 - Demystify Quality Score
- Module 7 - Evaluating Results / Niches
- Module 8 - Split Testing
- Module 9 - Optimizing Campaigns
There will also be a whole bunch of bonuses available at the start of the launch. The most important announcement in the video was the price of the course.
They talked about how they originally asked a bunch of Internet Marketers how much they should charge for the course and after showing them what’s inside, they were advised to charge around $2,500-$3,000 for the course. They didn’t like those price points so they designed the course around a $1,500 price point.
Later on, however, they changed their minds and decided to offer it at a price point that would make it available pretty much to anyone. Their PPC Classroom course last year cost $500 and it was worth it, but this one is being released at $77.
That’s pretty crazy. $77 is nothing for a course like this. I’ll definitely be picking up my copy.
So what’s the "Catch"? Well, they want to provide a whole crapload of value in the $77 course so that you start to make money with PPC Affiliate Marketing and then join their continuity program which will be a subscription based program where you pay a monthly fee to get access to the absolute newest strategies in PPC directly from Amit and Anik and other top names in the PPC game.
I’m sold. Can’t wait until tomorrow.
