My goal is to hit $10k/m but I just got started.
I understand most of the basic stuff! but can someone guide me through the exact formula I need to use to make $10k in the next 30 days?
Sure: Keep on hustling.
Aim for 10$/day and scale up from there 
Most people overestimate what they can do in a year, but underestimate what they can do in a decade.
Feel free to look at my old posts on this forum. I asked some really dumb questions back then.
2 years later i'm doing some decent damage.
If you understand the basics, and you are implement what you have learnt in basic lessons. Then you have all you need to get going.
How many campaigns have you launched so far? How much money have you spent on your tests?
If you understand most of the "basic stuff", then the rest would just be testing and experimentation.

Spy, rip, improve.
Do things that are hard.
Have $10k to start.
Hi, aronparker!
First of all, I wanted to say I really admire your ambition for making $ 10 k/m. Having big goals in life can make you a person of success, but the essential is always making a good practical plan for it. You've stated you understand most of the basic stuff. That's great. Indeed, this basic stuff is usually key.
Before making a practical plan to reach your ambitious goal, you need to figure out three questions.
First question: what's your traffic source? An expert in Media Buying once told me that 50% of the success in this game depends on the quality of traffic you get. It means that the traffic quality of the websites integrated in the adnetwork you use to buy traffic from really matters. Moreover, there is another crucial factor: the segment, which is the sum of country + operator + OS, niche, audience, etc.
Second question: what kind of offers do you promote? Do you work with a CPA or a CPI offer? Adult or Mainstream? Is it only operating on iOS or Android? Don't forget about the offer flow! The less complicated and easier for the user to convert, the better. Opt rather for pin submits, CPL, etc.
Last but not least: after you get the offer, the way you promote it will also affect the outcome. For example, setting a pre-landing page like a small questionnaire related to the offers can improve conversions. For example, if you're running adult offers, you can set a pre-landing page asking your audience if they're older than 18 years old.
Don't forget to make sure your visitors can capture the essence of your offer with a quick glance. This will require a relevant image and concise, clear language. What's more: you can also try using your own banner if it's possible, instead of using the official one.
In addition, make sure your offer is compatible with your traffic source.
Collecting data and testing is one of the most important things in this process. Do not hesitate and try different methods and offers.
After that, the fun begins! This is when the optimization process will help you to better identify what's working well and what's actually damaging your campaign. Keep an eye on gold mines. Once you find one, you'll be closer to your money making goal!
Trust me: sooner or later, you'll become more experienced and you'll quickly be able to know which offer can work like a charm!
You're welcome to reach out to me! We can definitely have a talk about this topic.
I really hope you can get to a place where you reach all your goals!
Cheers!
Hey Everyone! thanks for replying back to me.
I ended up reading a few articles on this forum and promoting a Diet Trial Offer via Solos.
Made close to $1,200 so far only...but will keep hustling!
Btw the adspend was $500 - so that was a profit of $700 so far (If I don't calculate the tools involved such as aweber, insta-builder, etc.)
Thanks for your help and motivation guys!
