Made 3 Sales!!
I just thought I'd make an update as it's been a while... I finally made some sales in the last 30 or so days since early December!! I can't believe it.
No sooner had I made my first one, a few days later I made another and then in early January another! I'm so happy it's all coming together and working out : D
Work Ethic
I have to admit, I've been procrastinating up until recently and not added a great deal of content to my site and the lack of sales reflected that for quite some time. It must have been around mid-november, I added another article and tweaked a few bits and pieces here and there, re-worded the front page so it flowed a bit better (It's still far from perfect, but certainly an improvement), as after so much inactivity with the site, I thought something must need looking at.
3 Came Along At Once
Well, it must have been shortly after these additions to my blog (judging from my clickbank app on my phone), that I had a sale. Then in a week or so another and then a couple of weeks later, a third! I didn't check until after I'd made 2 sales, so it was a very welcome surprise. I felt so happy and the work I'd put in had paid off!
Conclusion
So, I can only conclude that by adding more content, updating existing content so it flowed more smoothly and removing unnecessary information (padding text) made the sales possible. I must have been so close to a sale just before adding this without even realising it... If I'd just added one more article sooner, I'd have had a bunch of sales months ago! A big lesson learned there for me.
Onwards and upwards!

Thanks Javier, MOMU (Magic of Making Up) is an e-book to help the reader get their partner back after a breakup.
Awesome news Mike, wonderful to hear. Keep up the hard work and dedication to your campaigns and the sales will start rolling in much more frequently! Thanks for the update and I look forward to hearing about your future success stories!
Thank you Kyle, for creating an AMAZING community of like minded people with resources that are second to none. I have been following the lessons here and still have a long way to go, but it goes to show if I can do it... ANYONE can!
You have what it takes to achieve any level of success you want and are willing to achieve. Keep at it bro, great things lie ahead. Make 2013 your best year yet!
Hey there, thanks for the kind words. I'm glad it's helped inspire you. I had similar inspiration a few months back, when someone here posted their first success story. Only fair that I do the same. I hope you can do the same for everyone soon too! All the best, Mike
Most welcome, Mike! I can't wait to post my first success story.....but first I need to get the website up, and run some campaigns......wish me luck!
Best of luck getting the website up (that's a good fun part) you'll feel a real sense of achievement once it's up with your first page and your first post. Everything from there is just expanding it.
Good luck with your first sale, may it come swiftly. Keep at the training!
(If I can be of any help just shout!)
Hi Mike, am still working on my homepage. Sure hope to build up my content soon, am quite guilty of procrastinating:(. Thanks a lot for your encouragement and offer to help, will surely give a shout if I need help later, thanks again!
This is great news Mike, congrats on the sales! You have an audience who is definitely ready to purchase and your website is obviously doing a good job of offering value to your readers. Keep refining and scaling your traffic!
Thank you Carson, I'm incredibly grateful for what you and Kyle have created here. The training, support and resource at WA are OUTSTANDING and the community is incredible. You guys (and the WA community) have given me the opportunity to start my own business in my spare time and more than that, INSPIRED me to do more for myself and others. Thank you for doing what you do. Keep it up! Mike

Great job! Thats really encouraging for everyone Persistence pays off.
Thanks Frank, I made the post to help encourage everyone. I read someone's post a while back when they made their first sales and it motivated me to create more content. Now I made mine I wanted to share to encourage others. It really does work and I'm not even completed the Level 2 Training yet!
