Affiliate Intelligence BETA Tester Makes $23K in a Month…

November 18th, 2009 · 22 Comments

From time to time, I receive emails that help me to stay motivated with the “Lazy Marketer” side of my business, which at times is anything but Lazy…

Check it out:

Subject: Affiliate Intel-more than doubled my best month’s income 

Hey Chris,
 
While perusing comments on your blog, I noticed the odd comment about the shortcomings of Aff. Intel. I’d like to tell you about my experince with it.
 
I’ve been into affiliate marketing for 2 years now and full time since the beginning of this year. I’ve never made more than 7k in a single month–small potatoes to some, but life changing to others. It’s plenty enough income for me to do this full time and live exactly how I want to live. Anyway, I bought Aff Intel during the beta release back in August and put it to use right away. Obviously the last part of that sentence is the key.
 
October was the first month all my efforts so far with the data really kicked in. During the first few days of November, I totalled all my profits from my affiliate networks, and the grand total for October was a shade over 23k. All of this was from organic traffic. Conservatively I would say more than half was due to the keyword research in aff intel. November is off to a great start also. The naysayers won’t do anything with web based data anyway, and I imagine haven’t done anything with the .csv data either. Affiliate Intel is a goldmine. Just wanted to let you know.
 
Feel free to use this email any way you wish.
 
Keep doing what you are doing,

Jason

————————————————– 

There’s not really much else to say.

Even though part of me feels like saying “I told you so” to all the naysayers and people that have nothing better to do than point fingers and complain about small technical quirks…

…that’s not as beneficial as simply making 2 things very clear:

1. Affiliate Intel really is a goldmine, and

2. People who actually use it are seeing results

The web-based version of Aff Intel should be ready shortly after Affiliate Genie launches.

It is currently not for sale or available for BETA testing at this time.

So, sorry about the tease, but it will be available shortly, and most importantly - this stuff actually works, but only for people who can get past the “tress” and see the forest.

You can get hung up on details (aka: making excuses), or you can spend 3 minutes overcoming those small obstacles, use what you do have - which is a lot, and make $23K+ in a month from organic, free traffic.

Anyway - I just think it’s pretty freakin’ awesome that people are using stuff I’ve worked very hard to produce and seeing results like that for themselves as well.

That, to me, is the highest form of compensation.

(And there’s no reason I can’t one day receive an email from you like that as well - it just takes doing, folks.)

Take care,

-Chris

    I wanted to start using Firepow software for my blog from Firepow.com but now i want to know if Affiliate Genie is better and simple to use as Firpow software?

    holy moly Jason 23k all from organic traffic, congrats!!

    I’ll admit I have not used affiliate intel yet, been busy increasing current sites.

    I’m going to affiliate intel now, and find my goldmine.

    Matjaz,

    It’s not really a matter of choosing Aff Intel or Aff Genie, as they do different things. Aff Intel shows you which markets to go for and with what keywords. You take that intel, build that niche site with Aff Genie. Plus Aff Genie gives you the best converting layout. In short…use both!

  • 5 Domains at Retail // Nov 21, 2009 at 12:23 pm

    What I’m curious about is if he made his income from targetting the keywords from the Intel on existing sites or was it new sites that were created to make that income?

  • 6 Matjaz // Nov 22, 2009 at 8:31 am

    When will be Affiliate Genie avaliable to public?

  • 7 Mikael // Nov 22, 2009 at 2:20 pm

    Please keep writing these posts Chris. They are extremely motivating and inspiring. I’m personally using them to slap myself in the face and get going :)

    Dude, as a fellow Canadian I am pumped up about Aff Genie. I will buy it right now, without a sales letter and just 4 instructions. Chris I am ready. PS. I was also disappointed - extremely with another Canadian’s product - an individual who lives in Sherwood Park and advocates actual banner advertising. Wow.

  • 9 admin // Nov 23, 2009 at 8:37 pm

    Hi Lee,

    Nope, there’s no banner advertising being advocated here :-)

    (I like doing stuff that actually, you know… works.)

    Again the message of this testimonial is not buy it, but TAKE ACTION.
    This in my opinion is the biggest thing people don’t do and then they wonder why they are not successful (on the Net and elsewhere)

  • 11 Dewey // Nov 24, 2009 at 5:05 pm

    What is affiliate intel? Please email me and let me know
    Thanks

  • 12 admin // Nov 24, 2009 at 8:09 pm

    @ Speak Japanese (10) - Yep, of course. But it does help to know what sorts of things to do :-)

    @ Dewey - it was a BETA release that is no longer available.

    But it will be available shortly.

    Cheers

    -Chris

    >>But it does help to know what sorts of things to do <<
    Still think that your ‘Confessions’ report is the way to go. And good market and competition analysis is important, too.

  • 14 Stephan // Nov 27, 2009 at 1:02 am

    Chris, the affiliate intelligence report contains thousands of keywords.

    Jason says he got all his traffic from natural serps, did he build a page for each keyword or did he use some kind of auto generating content software.

    I do not doubt what he says, just want to know how he generated all the keyword pages? What software did he use if any?

  • 15 admin // Nov 29, 2009 at 4:31 am

    Stephan

    Jason used Aff Intel to uncover markets and offers that OTHERS had used to make a profit.

    It’s not about generating pages targeted to certain keywords.

    It’s about seeing what other affiliates are religiously promoting, and then finding an entrance spot.

    Hi Chris!

    Ah, thank you, now I get it… I own it myself but have not taken ACTION on it yet…

    So he did not target the specific keywords but just the markets? Created mini sites around them?

  • 17 Kim Adair // Nov 30, 2009 at 1:07 pm

    I am looking for the release of this as well as Affiliate Genie, I know what the price will be for AG, what will the price be for Affiliate Intell? Thanks.

    —”The web-based version of Aff Intel should be ready shortly after Affiliate Genie launches.”—

    Sounds good! Can’t wait for it now!

  • 19 chainlink // Dec 8, 2009 at 3:03 pm

    Where can we buy Affiliate Intelligence from? I can’t find it here or even when doing a search on google.

  • 20 Cash Surveys // Dec 19, 2009 at 1:34 pm

    Hey Chris…I love the inspiration you are providing on this site for affiliate marketers. This is really cool stuff dude.

  • 21 Bob // Feb 4, 2010 at 1:50 pm

    Chris- Was the last Affiliate Intel update the 12/14 update to Module 1? Trying to make sure I have the latest and greatest.

    Hi Chris,

    I missed the opportunity to buy AI the first time in 2009, but when is it released again?

    It’s been awfully quiet about this project, me ( and I think other folks also) would like to know when and where to buy AI.
