Since amping up my online selling strategy, I decided to pick one thing and get good at it. I like the idea of affiliate marketing because I need $0 up front and the payoff is hefty, unlike AdSense where you have to launch a site, bulk it up, and slowly see clicks adding up.

So being the investigative reporter that I am, I decided to scout out the best affiliate marketing eBooks to teach me the ropes for what I didn’t already know. As a ghostwriter, I’ve had several clients send me Rich Jerk to use as a resource, but to be honest, I didn’t see what the big deal was.

His marketing is certainly to be commended because it’s different, but what he taught was so condensed, I didn’t feel like I got a good lesson out of it.

I like methodical, step-by-step information. So I went with a newcomer – EasyChair Millionaire. Go compare the websites – they’re very identical. I almost wonder, since they’re both anonymous, if the Rich Jerk got so many complaints about his product that he decided to launch a more thorough, detailed one – kind of like a split testing venture?

Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised. I actually set up a system within 30 minutes and let it go. JUST with what I did that one day, for half an hour, I’m making an average of $200/week. I’d say for the minimal investment, EasyChair Millionaire was well worth it. I made my money back in 2 days.

Now, my next step is to wash, rinse, and repeat – if I spend another 30 minutes, that will hopefully garner me another $200/week, and so on. I’ll keep you updated. Plus, just as an fyi – I only used one of the systems. There were multiple ways he advises you to make money, and I’m torn between trying a new method and continuing with what works.
