Hey!
So I've been following the 40 days tutorial and had some problems with my AMs. So I picked some offers myself and drove traffic to them. But I had no luck. ZERO Conversons. Everytime. Luckily one of my AMs messaged me back and gave me a list of best converting offers. Drove traffic to one in Indonesia and Boom one conversion in minutes! Feels great and my campaign is no only -32% so it's looking not too bad! Thanks to @vortex for the great tutorials.

Its not a bad idea to simply try some "random" offers here and there. I've found some great converters this way myself... and I'm 100% sure I wasnt the only one 
Just execute some caution when doing this. Sometimes offers remain listed even thou they are no longer active, the deal might have ran out and someone just forgot to remove the offer. I have had this situation when I started to promote a random offer without talking to my AM and even though it reported some nice conversions I was refused the payout as it was no longer meant to be promoted.
So when doing this, stick to low volume and talk to your AM afterwards.
And congrats on your first conversions! That always feel great 
Good job, keep going!
@stancup Thanks for posting about your first conversion! Feels great doesn't it? 
You're so welcome about the tutorial - thank you for being a valuable part of the STM community!
@matuloo Has basically said everything there is to say. I would often test offers that aren't recommended by AMs as "best-converting", but before spending money testing them I would usually check with the AM to see whether it's because :
1)the offer has received traffic from affiliates before and just plain sucked, or
2)for one reason or another the offer hasn't received any significant traffic yet so hasn't been tested properly.
Obviously if it's the first case, I know not to waste my budget.
To infinity and beyond!
I look forward to hearing about all your continuing success (and even temporary "failures" - as that happens to even the best of us)!
Amy
