    Hi Charlie,

    I’m a newbie and I was wondering if I put up a site and sent 1,000 leads to it every day with my auto traffic with a traffic funnel do you think it would make me any money. I sell a fuel additive that gives 5 or 6 miles more per gal . Any advice you have to relate to me would be greatly appreciated.

    May the smiles be with you,

    Richard Sanderson

      Richard,

      I think that any site can make money with 1000 real visitors a day.

      I’m not sure what type of traffic would come from what you are calling “auto traffic”. If it is safelist traffic or purchased traffic such as “guaranteed visitors” or from a traffic exchange then I would say it is unlikely that you would make sales even with 1000 “visitors” a day.

      Hope this helps.

      Charlie

    Hi,
    There are a number of things Arlene can do about her site. I am newbie too but I had a lady contact me from a memsite last month, she had a two year old site that somehow had not been indexed cause the person who built it had checkmarked the do not allow indexing when he set it up.
    My point being it might be something simple and I wish Arlene would contact me. At the vrey least she could flip that site and probably make at least half her outlay for the last seven years.
    I’m sure you already contacted her yourself. I am not selling anything, just hate to hear these stories.

    Hi Charlie,
    I just love your openness and honesty; but I notice something: I am
    yet to read posts by people who are making money
    from what they have learned from
    you or what you are doing… Maybe you don’t like being
    sensational. Maybe I am yet visit those
    kind of your sites … Please
    encourage me. True, money should not be one’s primary
    reason for going into this; but
    money is still important. Right? Please direct me.

      I am happy to help you in any way I can but I never suggest that people post about the money they make. That is a private matter in my view. This is exactly why I never show screenshots of my Clickbank accounts or any of that type of hyped-up behavior. It’s just not me.

      If being online for 12 years is not enough to convince you that our process works I’m not sure what else to offer you.

      I’m a new member on this site. After two days of membership, I implemented one strategy Charlie suggested with one of my products on 4/18. The first sale came in about 3:03 pm on 4/19. The second sale came in today 4/23 at 6:06 pm while I was boarding a flight home as I checked my cell phone. I will definitely be using the strategy on every product I have and with every new product I create or promote.

    I have no money at this time, I have had the Naturessunlight website for about 7 yrs. now & the Real Estate one for about a year. I take a loss with the Naturessunlight one every year. A JV wouldn’t be good for the Naturessunlight, as the site is an Alternative Medicine & Natural Health one. How could you help me? Thanks, Arlene

      Arlene,

      My first reaction is that you should stop working the Naturessunlight site or make it an ad supported site. If you have not made money from it in 7 years then maybe now is the right time to switch tactics. I would convert it into a blog and let people post articles and comments there and develop a community around the theme. But I would not invest an 8th year in this. Online businesses are different than offline businesses. Seven years is forever online. I don’t see where any JV is going to turn the tide on this one.

      I do NOT want to discourage you but sometimes we need to know when the time has come to shift gears. If you were my sister the advice I would give you is that seven years is long enough to go without profits.

    Hi Charlie.

    Thank you for the informative video on JV. Thoroughly enjoyed the content and looking forward to future mailings from you.

    One problem is that the case study of http://www.macmarketersdirectory.com appears to just be a sponsored ad website, not what I expected from a JV site (of course, I don’t know if this is the actual JV that you worked out.)

      It’s a case of a JV that did not work out. The other party just could not bring himself to launch the site.
