My Long-awaited First Commission

Hi everyone,

My last two blog posts had a somewhat gloomy ambiance, so I'm happy to say that this time, I have great news to share with you.


I just found out I got my first commission in late December!

It's only $18, but the first commission is a memorable milestone that I'm sure I will always look back to.

That's why the emphasis of the featured photo was on coins, not racks of dollar bills. 😂


Also, this commission came from a yearly subscription to a premium membership. In other words, it's a recurring one — much like premium membership commissions here on WA.


I started my affiliate marketing journey on the 20th of September 2023, which means I got my first commission after 3 months of hard work.

I'm hoping that this is a sign of the floodgates creaking.

I believe Kyle and Diane also made their first ever commissions after 3 months, so I'm happy to say I'm now an official member of the 3-month club.


Thanks for reading.

Yusuf

Yusuf I am so hppy for you . You have never given up and asked a ton of questions, and the first commission is a milestone, so well done.

Having said that, I want to add a proviso, but I am not raining on your parade. An odd commission here or there is a hobby. To have a business, you need to be sure that you know exactly how you got that commission so you can rinse and repeat.

I am dying to read that you have reached this stage because you will, as I know you will not give up . Chuffed to bits

Congrats Yusuf!

That must have been a lot of work you have put in. Only 3 months! That is something.

Not sure if Kyle made his first commission in 3 months, but I don’t know.

I remember that I earned my first money from ads on my website. But it was certainly not my first commission.

You’re on the right track, now keep on working! If possible work harder!

The dopamine spike is amazing, I'm sure you felt the same way with your recent WA commission.
