LAS VEGAS 2020 - Super Affiliate Challenge COMPLETE! (& Ask Me Anything)
Last Update: May 05, 2019
So I was driving to Cape Cod with BenjisMom and upon arrival to our hotel room, a pleasant surprise came across when I logged into WA
So yeah, @JerryHuang beat me to it, lol, but I'm right on his heels... (Congrats bro)
I look forward to seeing the crew AND any new faces!
I know several you all that are part of Kyles Super Affiliate Challenge and all I can say is follow his instructions EXACTLY. Do not deviate.
He know's what he is talking about and how to generate 300 sales.
Since 2015, I have grown multiple successful blogs and a few cash flowing YouTube channels promoting a number of products (including my own products you can see on my profile page).
Word of Advice for Las Vegas Hopefuls
The only thing I can suggest that you do if you want to accomplish the Super Affiliate Challenge (SAC), is to follow the instructions, follow the training, and do not get distracted with extra training here and there. As you may know at this point, it is STUPID EASY to get off track.
Remember, everyone has their "own" way of making money. A lot of different ways work. But just choose one you know works and stick to it until you succeed.
I get CONSTANT messages from students saying that 'life' impeded them building their business. But once the money rolls in, you will devote more time to it.
Once you get the money flowing, you can use it to grow your business exponentially.
Google is so predictable that if you put content out there, Google WILL respond eventually.
It sounds simple; it sounds too easy, but honestly, what is EASY TO DO is also EASY NOT TO DO.
One key principle is to Blog.... blog... and blog some more.
Get the audience...
Get the traffic...
Traffic = Money
Forget how your website looks, stop worrying with the colors, just blog.
Don't worry with widgets... just blog
Stop worrying about making your content or site PERFECT... just blog.
Google can rank average content, Google can rank poor worded content, BUT one thing that Google will NOT rank is content that doesn't exist.
SO BLOG! STOP READING THIS AND BLOG! Did I stutter? Go and blog asap!
I wish you all the best! You can do it if you put in the work.
I owe a lot of this to YouTube as well... so if you are interested in how I did this, CLICK HERE TO FOLLOW ME ON WA and check out my sites at the bottom right.
If you have questions for me directly, ASK AWAY... We can even make this an AMA (or an Ask Me Anything) and I will try my best to answer any question.

Congrats Chris! Great to hear you made it so quick!
There's also wisdom from Jim Rohn there in your post! ;) "what is EASY TO DO is also EASY NOT TO DO." So true.
This Monday and Tuesday I was just somehow "mentally fighting" to get myself to the work mode. Things that are easy to do are also so easy not to do, lol

I seem to be stumbling across a lot of quotes today, and got to thinking about one of my personal favourites:
"mediocrity on fire beats genius on ice"
I'm struggling to remember who this is attributed to - can anybody enlighten me?

Big congrats! Great achievement. It is a prove over and over again that WA is working. It is great to read about successful online marketers here at WA!
And yes, I am involved in the SAC and accomplished the first month already. Waiting for instructions for the next one.
I would like to ask you a couple of things (you may answer them here or in private, as you prefer):
- what social media accounts do you use and how frequently do you post?
- do you run more sites in different niches or more in the same one or you work with one website only..?
- where is your targeted market located?
- How big is the influence of your organic traffic in your overall success?
Thanks a lot for your answers, I appreciate that!
Wish you much more success!
Best regards,
Igor

This is so AWESOME and the motivation I needed for sure! I agree with the comments you get that life is impeding my progress, but I want this WA world to be my world. I am still working through the Bootcamp training and your advice is helping me get in the mindset to keep going. It's the word count when blogging that I get stuck on- so any advice there would help me!

My sincere congrats! But I have to say that writing more is not always equal to more traffic. I have 470 posts and my traffic is around 100 visits a day. Google is a tricky entity. Though I'm making money I haven't been able to hit 300 sales since 2014 because my traffic doesn't grow.

Oh, wow. If you find a way to solve this and get more traffic, do let us know...please.
I'm really curious to know how come you don't have lots of traffic...
I have only 80 posts and don't have much traffic as yet (only 20-25 per day). Still, I somehow feel it should/could be more.
Anyhow, if you feel like writing a post and maybe other members will suggest ways we can all improve.
Best,

Chris,
Thank you for emphassimg what is important in the Super Affiliate Challenge. At WA with so much going on it is easy to get distracted. I need to refocus on doing the tasks Kyle has listed even if it means reducing effort on my niche website.
Kyle challenged me to aspire to being an Ambassador. Hence I’ve been working on stepping up my rank. Not all efforts to achieve this is congruent with the SAC. I need to itemize what is and isn’t and only do activities that will get me through the SAC.
You have achieved so much in two years Chris, you inspire me. I followed you. Congrats on your early qualifying for Vegas. My goal is to join you there.
Cheers!

May I ask...
I wasted a lot of time (Months) without producing any content. Your post hit me on my head and I am determined to produce more content. May I ask writing one post per day will be good or writing 2 posts per day will be good (5 Days a week)... Please advice...
Suddenly (Not writing posts for few months) If I write more than one post in a day will that create any problem with Google (SEO). Please advice...
With Gratitude,
Paul

First I want to say congratulations, well done, I feel totally blessed to be a part of the SAC challenge, because I know in my heart this is indeed my launching pad for total success. Because I know Kyle knows what he's talking about and I'm going to follow his lead to the letter. By the way my friend, I live in Boston, I have a whole bunch of cousins in Cape Cod , three of them work on the Plymouth Plantation. May you have a beautiful successful week my friend.

Congratulations, BenjisDad! I am happy for your success. I do have a few questions. I know you say blog blog blog and blog some more. Would that be publishing every single day, such as 7 days a week? or is it not necessary to publish 7 days a week as long as we stay consistent?
Then next question,is it possible to get 300 referrals without YouTube? Another question, after you get 300 referrals then the stats are raised to 3000? Is that correct?
Anyhow, I look forward to your response. Congrats once again. I hope you and BenjisMom have a blast..
I'll be in Las Vegas soon...and I'll be excited to meet you all...Have an awesome day...

7 days may be a bit much, but if you can do it, go for it. I would do at least 2-3 a week. Just rememebr the more yuo blog, the more money yuo will make. so you are really limited to how much time you put into it.
of course... last year i was the only super affilaite that really utilized YouTube the way that I do. My referrals come from Youtube and my blog.
the 3000 is just for gettign the free rolls royce while in vegas and luxury suite. you only need 300 for the conference.

Congrats, Chris!!! You really inspired me to start YouTube and it's been brewing more in my mind, ever since I read your post.
Question:
I've had this WA site since 2018 with a few articles, not regularly publishing on there (for now). How realistic is it for me to make 299 referrals by December 31st if I start adding more content?
Also, I know reviews work best but I'm really not into review writing to be honest, at least not every single scam product out there.
Still trying to figure out whether I should push myself to do what I don't like if I want to make it to Vegas or try non-review types as well (but as far as I understand, it'll take longer for it to rank, even though my site is pretty aged).
Cheers,
Zarina

You don't have to review scams.
You can review your cell phone, a crock pot, the last hamburger you had, Wal-Mart, a television program, a kid toy, nail polish, hair weave, toothpaste, pajamas, vertical blinds, kids' clothes, headphones, kids' dish sets, office chairs, paper towels, desk lamps (I'm literally just looking around my apartment and typing what I see).
In short ANYTHING.
You heard the man. Go BLog!

Thanks Chris. The thing though is that Jerry heavily focused on reviewing scam products, that's why I'm thinking what should I do here, just bite the bullet and still do it or try ranking for possibly more challenging keywords that are not focusing on scam-reviews.

Hi Zarina
I'm the same as you. I don't want to be reviewing scam products all the time.
What i tend to do is write 2 scam reviews per week and then 2 response posts.
For example: how to build a website from scratch or how to write an article that will rank on google. Something along those lines.
These often times are much easier to write about because we have been through it ourselves and can talk about it without doing any research.
You also don't get any writers block when writing stuff from past experiences.

yeah, i know what you mean abotu revewing products. its focused on here because they are easy to rank for espeically if you can launch jack products.
you can do it with regular affiliate markeing and blogging advice and content, but it is a little harder to rank for those terms since most people in the industry know how to blog correctly already.
but as long as you niche down, you can find some nooks and cranny's get a hook into the niche make some conversions.
to be honest, youtube would be better for ranking for affiliate mareking and blogging terms due to suggested video.
be sure to check out my course if you are interested.

Thanks for confirming, that's what I thought it'd be like. Perhaps should try with YouTube instead.
I already signed up to your email course, and got the checklist (if that's what you were referring to?) - so I get more tips and inspiration to start video.
Curious, what kind of gear you have for YouTube blogging? (Camera, lens, microphone/speaker etc)

the camera on your phone is likely good enough, or yoiu can just do a screen record using quicktime or screencastomatic, that is what i use.
the speaker on your headset is good enough to get started as well, but if you hvae money to invest, you can check out the things that i use over at https://amazon.com/shop/benjisdad

I am not surprised that you have done so well. I've just started writing reviews; saw one you had written on a company I reviewed, and almost gave up the idea -- your review was so well-done!

Awesome! I'm not sure where to begin at the moment, I was on a roll but then I wasn't getting results (not getting ranked for the jaaxy terms I targeted following the training, but getting ranked for pointless random terms that no one is searching), so that slowed down my progress. But when I read posts like yours you make me feel that somehow I CAN do it ... So I just keep working at it, trying to do things better. Thanks!

dont stop K. You rank for small words first, but they turn into big words. Many peole give up RIGHT BEFORE their site is getting ready to hit, so push through, there is light at the end of the tunnel

If you need visas or passport, that would likey fall on you. Good question though.
But people come from all around the world. Northern Europe, UK, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand.
You'd likely have to get your way to the airport itself , but Kyle is EXTREMELY flexible. So if you need a few bucks to and from the airport, then he may oblige I'd you ask him.
But as I said, he gives us $200 spending cash as well, so anything you may spend should be mostly made up with that cash.
