Damn adult dating offer

I really need help here if anybody did some mobile adult dating ...

I bought for november a media buy ... with correct volume not too much ... just enough to get my cap everyday ..

This morning my AM told me since their budget was low .. they had to cut from 250 to 100 lead a day and now I'm fucked up ...

what should I do loL?

Sounds like you weren't split testing other offers.

well mobile for the country I was running there is only 2 big offer that does well .. and I have no choice to bring in the other one.

You'll just have to split it with another offer, or the same offer on a network with a lower pay.

It's the risks you take when working for yourself, it could have easily gone the opposite way. The idea is just to win more risks then you lose.

Take the hit, lose a little, break even or whatever, and keep on going.

yeah .. I talked with the network because I told my AM I was about to make the move she said np .. and then this morning she told me this ... I was like huh wtf?

so she sent me to the competition and and I deal for a similar payout and now just waiting to see the CR

Good luck mate. That sucks but look how much you learned from this minor miscalculation and think of how much money you are going to save down the road.

yup that's right ... it's only paper .. and I might still be profitable found a few other offer and .. I found a kind of unique offer somewhere that will do very good (pretty sure)

if I'm break even or a little bit under .. doesn't really care I learned something without losing too much

Why not run it on a $100 CPS? Don't have to worry about scrubs or caps or anything of the sort.

Thats it, learning mistakes first hand is the best way to make sure you're progressing as an affiliate, usually when other affiliates tell you something about their mistakes, you don't listen and learn but the emotion you're feeling behind making this mistake is gonna empress it on ya brain

Hopefully you get it sorted soon man, rooting for ya kent <3
