If you’re affiliate blogging, beware some of the over-hyped sales letters out there. While the figures tossed around with abandon may be true, they may not be the whole truth. Profits quoted may be gross, rather than net. If you’re spending $5000 promoting a product in order to make $5500 for example, the net is $500.
While $500 net profit is great, not all promotions work. You may find that you’re spending $6500 to make $5500 on occasion. Remember you’re in sales: sometimes you get a great result, and sometimes you don’t.
AltrnativeSOHO is taking one of the latest “make money online” products and putting it through its paces.
In her first Challenge post, she says 20/20 Challenge: Day 1: “Only 35 pages into the 20/20 Manual, the truth is revealed about the $20,000 figure being gross income from the project. Of course, there are some other figures thrown around to offset it; Figures such as $10,000, $20,000, $30,000 and a few others for effect.”
I’ve added the blog to my RSS feed; if you’re interested in making money online, you should too.
