JonathanVolk had a Record Breaking Month - $270,000+ which is great! Could you believe he was stuck at $170k for a few months. An then comes out with an increase of $100,000 EXTRA a month.

Talk about a raise. That’s about 2 people’s annual salary in 1 month he’s making EXTRA.

So since that’s gross what’s PROFIT? He says profits was in 6 figures range.

So you can bet his least profit would be 100,000. Still who can beat 100,000 profit a month?

That’s ridiculous. Congrats.

——— AS FOR Industry Updates… What I Am Doing!

That’s about it so far. Going to start working on adding a ton of campaigns today.

I’ve created a poll campaign on google content network.

Here’s a screenshot of yesturdays stats. 9/30/2008

Here’s stats so far 10/1/2008 at 8.05am

so will add a ton of stuff hopefully tomorrow i will make more.

To meet your goals in life. You must be very serious and work as hard as you can to reach those goals as soon as possible.

I am starting to focus more on what I really want, I have started to implement cardio and weight training into my daily routine to give me more energy and drive. I will be sleeping earlier to wake up earlier.

I will start testing new campaigns, everyday or every other day.

To win in this business, you need to be able to work at it like a full-time job sometimes even more.

What do I mean? By, Get More Serious!

I mean, I am going to start working 8-10 hour days of full WORK.

There’s a difference between wasting time reading and surfing.

and actually working 8-10 hour days of doing nothing, but ACTION.

Meaning, doing things so your business can PROGRESS forward.

Sweet, just got approved for a GOLD Status account. This will speed more things up.

” We are writing to let you know that your request for Gold status has
been approved. You will now see an Import link under the Campaigns tab
that you may use to do bulk uploads. On this page you will find the
formatted template you may use and instructions for completing the
spreadsheet are available by clicking the “?Help” link in the upper right corner
of the Import page. We have also raised your keyword limit from 50,000
to 100,000. “

I am now able to upload my campaigns through my own account without emailing yahoo.

I can also add 50,000 more keywords to my account.

Now I can work on building my Yahoo Campaigns and then transfer them to MSN & Google.

New Layout - The new layout will be updated soon. It’s currently being worked on. Probably a few days, I will have it up.

Wow, I am one very lazy entrepreneur who doesn’t work enough.

I will do anything but work all day for some odd reason. There are days when I am on a roll and will work all day and days when I only work a few hours.

I plan on spending 6 Hours a Day on my PPC Campaigns and Content Websites. This will be a 42 hour work week if I am spending 6 hours a day, 7 days a week.

I want to see how I do with this, if this turns out well. I hope in the process of doing this, I get more done within the week. If this works out, I will test 8, 10, maybe 12 hours a day also. 12 Hours a day, might be too much. But we’ll see.

My blog design, should be ready soon. Then I will start focusing on getting more posts up and guides to help anyone who is new to Affiliate Marketing.

I’ve been working on my PPC Campaigns.

50kmonth new template is being worked on. Once they layout is working, i’ll work on adding all the content and start organizing things.

Then focus on getting my name out there.

Working on getting the new design up and all the new plugins so I can start blogging and writing tutorials.
