Great Day on Amazon!
Scanning Through My Reports...
So, I have a bit of a ritual when I sit at my desk. Check my WA for any notifications, check Amazon for new clicks and possible sales, check my other affiliate programs.
I went through my WA stuff and was just finishing my first coffee when I opened Amazon and took a look at my reports. A pretty sad $0 on all the countries that I have an Associates account for.
Instead of worrying over that, I decided to go in and look at the actual clicks for each. Again, ritually, I check Canada, the US, the UK, etc. I always check in the same order because of the way they are listed, except for the US which is at the bottom.
I always check the US after Canada (I'm Canadian).
Canada showed no new sales and 31 clicks for the last month.
I head over to the US Associates account and BAM!
Two new ordered items that hadn't registered for amounts yet!
Following the trend of previous sales, I got excited over my new $1.64 that I was expecting.
You Never Know When it Will Happen
I scrolled down to see what it was they purchased. Most of my sales come from a home theater review site that I don't even pay attention to anymore.
I have a second site that takes all of my spare time and I've been neglecting my first site even though it has gotten 728 Google clicks as of today.
The truth is that I feel almost as though I'm lying doing reviews for home theater equipment I've never used, and it has made me not want to continue. I've been contemplating finding someone to buy it.
So, I scroll down and sure enough, the sales are from my home theater site.
A 15' subwoofer signal wire for $10.99....and a Klipsch R-120SW subwoofer for $348.95!
I did a lot of research for that review and went into extreme scientific detail, but I still wish I could use the products myself.
Does anyone else feel that way?
Anyway, I just though I'd share my BIG win today, and I hope it motivates someone on here to keep going. It's worth it!

It does not matter what you, I or others make of it.
It is simply what it is. Can you explain that?
No, it is best experienced. Start Now.
Glad to have you back and I hope that I do not get in the way of some of your discussions coming up. Sometimes they go over my head but I will try to concentrate.
Kindest regards,
Paul @PMindra

I should read the comments below.
I hear what you are saying and it’s okay to review something you have never used as long as you have researched what those that have are saying.
I had the same issue but find using a review formula as Kyle teaches us to do, makes it easier.
Oh and congratulations on a commission too.
With Grace and Gratitude

Great job!!
As Kyle says very well, it's not because we have not tried all the products on our blog that we can not know anything about it. The important thing is to learn about the products you want to talk about so you do not mislead people. But it's not a lie to say that this product seems good or bad to you, store sellers rely on customer feedback to know if the product is good or not. In a perfume shop for example the owner of the store will not have tried all the perfumes, that does not prevent him from selling them to us.
Congratulations!
