Things may not have worked out with Amazon this time around but I'm positive you came out with tons of experience that would prove beneficial moving forward.

As you also said now you can relook ideas or opportunities that you avoided before. Benefits may actually lie in those directions.

There are lessons in silver linings in every experience. It's all a part of our growth.

You're still on the road to success, the route may just have changed a bit.

Wishing you all the best.

I like your idea of instructions. Have you checked Jaaxy for search results?

We were very surprised that people were looking for instructions on our niche products. And they would rather look online than store the instructions somewhere.

Glad your are flexible and looking into other options. It is through closed doors that others open.

We wish you much success as you continue on.

You'll land on your feet, Mike! Bozos and Amazon are full of it, imho! You have a GREAT asset with all those posts for any Affiliate Group with common sense, and it will only get better for you, my friend!

You have great spirit, Mike.
I am a musician as well. I took a quick look at your site.
Would you like some feedback? If not that's perfectly OK.

They will allow you to resubmit when you get more traffic.

This is a mistake many newbies make, do not apply to Amazon until you have some steady traffic. As little as 100 visits per day should get you started getting sales before your 180 days runs out, not so applying from the very start where it can be six months before you get enough traffic.
