From 0$ to 1k$/day in a few short months! (21)
Hey STMers!
I will keep this short as I don't feel like writing much today. 
I'm 21 years old and I live in Latvia. Just a few months ago I joined STM with a few hundred $ set aside for testing and high motivation. I wasn't new in this scene, I've been doing IM for almost 2 years now, but just recently turned to paid traffic as this is the best way to go in my opinion.
I knew I wouldn't stop until I ''make it'', so it was only matter of time. I red this awesome forum for weeks, wrote key points down, did everything as the big guys suggested in their guides. Didn't have much success in the beginning following guides, so I decided to do what I've always done - do more of what ''feels right'' instead of following what others are telling me to do. I didn't stick with one traffic source till I master it, I didn't spend too much money on testing before killing campaign, but I did blast out TON of campaigns nonstop and wanted to find something that more or less works right off the bat. This just made more sense to me. And indeed I did find a few xx$ a day campaigns pretty fast, first month and a half of joining STM, but these campaigns died very quick and weren't really scaleable (or at least I didn't know how to scale).
So I came up with unique angle that's broad appeal and scaleable to many GEOs, chose Facebook ads for this and started testing. Right off the bat this shit just worked. I am successfully running this campaign in 16 geos already and still have a list of 13 more that should work too.
Now for over 2 weeks I'm profiting over 1k$ per day at sick ROI - about 200-400% (some geos give me ~80%, some went even over 1000% and of course, some just didn't work). I could profit even more per day, but I prefer to slowly and steadily stack this $$ as skyrocketing daily spend for my campaigns will increase CPC (so ROI drops), might cause more FB triggers and as GEO dries out, it won't happen so slowly and noticeably as with lover daily spend.
So far I have profited estimated 15k$ and I feel like there is at least the same amount still left. I'm not spending my money on shit I don't need. I still live in shitty studio flat. But I started renting office to better balance my work/life, and it's great. I know how very important having budget in this industry is. I will stack stack and stack so I can find next nugget before my money runs out.
Final word
What I would recommend for everyone still struggling is not to give up - that's self explanatory of course. Improvise more and just test test test, do what feels right, don't always follow guides word by word. Read them, take what you can from em', but always have your own twist. Following guides is for 9-5 robots, we are doing business here!
Congrats on your success. it's all about not giving up.
Congrats! That is awesome! 
Just launched my first one today and sent my second angle to approval too. I hope I will soon be where you are ^^
Where did you start before FB?
Congratulations to your Success!
My friend who's also Latvian is getting into this business as well! We motivate each other and give feedback as well.
Hearing that a Latvian guy made it, will definitely motivate him even more. Maybe we can even connect?
Must feel awesome to reach such a high profit daily!

Congrats on your success mate! Keep stacking.
Care to share which vertical you are promoting?
Just curious, are you running whitehat.. or did your campaigns require a bit of Harry Potter Magic... 
Hey Tomsko... are you cloaking it on FB or is it a straight deal... ie. clean.
YEYA! Looks like you can afford to pop many many more tyres now man haha!
So sick, congratz on your success see you in London!
Another one shows how fast it can happen if you consistently move forward everyday, and stay positive! Been a great addition to have you on STM mate
Congrats homie!!
Facebook is an amazing channel since you can get so much traffic and scale if you can do it right.
Great work getting it to work out for you in such a short period of time!
I really love these success stories.
Congrats on your success! Oh and "tomsko has exceeded their stored private messages quota and cannot accept further messages until they clear some space."
Thanks guys!
I'm definitely going to STM London @maynzie see ya there!
@adlicious Thanks for letting me know, just cleaned it 
Hey guys! Just wanted to let you know that I've already hit 30k$ profit, thats including taxes etc.
That is awesome tomsko! I will be launching my first campaigns this week. Was catching up on some motivational stories. Thanks for sharing yours. I'm looking forward to posting mine very soon.
Congratulations! It's very inspiring to hear stories like yours and keeps me going.
Speaking to some of the previous questions, are you cloaking or anything similar?
Good job mate, now next stop is five figures!
Congratulations man! Great inspiration.
From what I see here.
1) You bought almost 1 million clicks from facebook.
2) Your ROI is 200-400% so based off that revenue, you spent at most $10k.
Comes out to $0.01/click or thereabouts.
I've love to see a case study on this once the opportunity is gone.
Awesome work! I am always telling everyone to "never give up" just like you said. Persistence is the pattern of success in affiliate marketing.
