12 Years Ago I Made my First Sale
Twelve years ago today I made eighty-four cents online.
That was the moment it stopped being a dream.
I’d spent weeks building a site. Writing articles no one reads. Posting links that went nowhere. Then one random sale came through..
It made no sense. But it made everything click.
I put a link on a website.
A stranger clicked it.
A product was bought.
I got paid.
It worked.
That commission was less than a dollar. But the moment was priceless.
I posted in the WA forums like I’d hit the jackpot. Because in a way, I had. I wasn’t guessing anymore. I had proof of concept.
It’s been twelve years of doing, failing, and improving. And it all started with that first click.
To anyone grinding for their first sale, don’t underestimate what it means.
The internet has changed since then, but it's still real and still very possible.
You don’t need a windfall. You need a spark.

Awesome post Christian, for me wit was that first sale that took the guessing out of things and whether or not this internet opportunity was real. That was 22 years ago now (showing my age lol), and it still feels like yesterday!
From 1 sale the sky is the limit you can just scale up and build momentumn. Congrats on the 12 year marker for me it has been 21 yesrs since my first sale and while small it was electrifying.

My partner forwarded me a tweet about psychic readings in Charlotte that included a demo craps table—couldn’t resist trying it. I clicked https://psychics-advisor.com/city/charlotte/ in the middle of planning our date night, and was welcomed by reader profiles rich with testimonials. After my reader unlocked some romantic insights, I dove into the craps demo and learned a basic odds shortcut for pass-line bets. Combining that with my session’s confidence boosts made our evening feel extra special, blending heartfelt advice with a dash of dice-rolling excitement.
