hi if you have been reading my previous few threads, you will know that i'm still in the process of starting out my first campaign and i've met with countless of unforeseen problems that i did expect, but not in such volume. these are critical processes that is impeding the pace i'm moving at.
so my question is this, how should i invest my waiting time?
some background information: i'm getting problems with my traffic sources. inmobi traffic is hardly moving despite bidding quite abit, so i've applied the suggestion given by zeno and also written in to seek more help. i've tried a different traffic source like airpush, but it has given me some wacky data and just a couple hours back, refunded me my funds(which i have yet to recieve wtf?!) leaving my account with -$5.30. i've written in again to get help and have to wait. i've added both reps but they are always offline or nonresponsive.
i've about 6angles and a landing page ready to be tested but my traffic sources are just screwed up atm.
one easy option is to try another traffic source, would that be recoomended? i've even join decisive just yesterday, and they didnt give me my login, added the guy on skype and again he's never on it!!
my plan is just to try out 1 campaign, get in the first round of data, make sure i didnt screw any tracking stuff up, and after start to test my angles and move on from there.
and i realise that this process will allow me alot of free time because i have to wait for data to come in. i've also recently roped in my younger brother,who's just idling waiting to get into college, for $500/mth +%profits, and i dont want to have two people idling! it's gonna screw up the motivation, commitment, pace, etc
is there a way to expedite the process?
or what should i really do while waiting for the data and stuff?
i've got a budget of around 3-5k$/mth to test.
again sorry for the long long post, i jsut really wanna put out as much info to get the best picture out there.
really wanna crush this game!
Hey!
What email address did you sign up for Decisive with, and who did you contact on Skype?
1 - I would spend your time analyzing other successful campaigns in-and-around the space your launching your campaign in for ideas
2 - Learn either programming and/or design. These are powerful skills to have if you intend to make it big in affiliate marketing.
3 - Build out campaigns for fun, even if you never launch them. Targeting>Ads>Offer, rinse, repeat. Its the equivalent of dribbling a soccer ball, even if theres no opponet on the field.
@johnaff: thanks for your opinions man, greatly appreciate it. not alot of people can go through my wall of text and still summon a solid response!
any idea how you would go about doing
1) with regards to mobile marketing? what i'm doing is download free apps and looking at their banners and landing pages
2) definitely have very basic skills and am learning as i progress. i shld definitely improve my knowledge particularly on areas i think that are essential.
anyhow thank you very much!
