Ok, so its been over 6 months, and actually I figured it would take even longer because I have been too busy to put much effort into my website.

But I earned from my first affiliate sale!

Ok, don't get too excited. It was only 40 cents. I have to smile and kinda laugh when I write that. It sounds silly to get so excited. But it means people are reading my posts and that what I wrote means something to them.

That's what I am really excited about. If I can almost do nothing for 2 months because I am so busy, and still get someone's attention and business, what could I do if I was truly dedicated?

Talk about motivation!

Well, I got my Christmas present. Happy holidays to everyone and best wishes!

40 cents or not... its proof that the training and blueprint here works

Ask any of the so called gurus who now earn thousands per month, what their first commissions were & you wouldn't find much difference between yours and theirs thats for sure

Excellent work though well done.

Wait til you adsense to your blogs, then do YouTubing aand other such things, then watch the $$$s roll in

All of which, of course gives you content to write about and video!!

You Gonna be busy!! : )

Happy Christmas

I can't wait! Are all those addressed in the trainings?

Absolutely in one way or another

I want to say a big congrats. 40 cents is nothing to sneeze at simply because you need to start somewhere. 40 cents leads to 4 dollars, 40 dollars, 400 dollars and even 4000 dollars and more.

I am absolutely going to follow your progress.

I hope you have a great Christmas and Happy New Year.

Thank you!

Congratulation Joanne.
The first commission is always something sweet and memorable, regardless the amount. It's sort of a confirmation that you can really earn online. That's a motivation to move up and forward.
All the best.

Thanks Joe! Appreciate the encouragement!
Joanne

Congrats! That's indeed very special, and you will always remember what was sold and what you earned. The amount doesn't matter - instead it is proof of concept that this works. From here it just keeps growing. Good for you!

Whoop Whoop! Congrats on your first sale! The amount is not important, it's like you said; it's the fact that people are actually reading and finding what you're writing helpful to them.

If you can make $0.40, then this can turn to $4.00 and then to $400 (and then on to $4000) soon.

I'm so happy for you!

Congrats on your first sale! The monetary amount is not nearly as important as the sale itself - what a fabulous Christmas gift, confirmation that all your hard work is going to pay off.
Merry Christmas!
Blessings

For good reason too! First 40c, then $40, then $400 ... Before you know it ... The sky is the limit. Go for it!
