Could you possibly give a rough percentage of what you spend on PPC? Just so we can get an idea of what is possible in AM. Surely you made around 100% ROI?

They have us over a barrel really, don’t pay ppc and make peanuts, pay ppc and make erm.. more peanuts than you would have done.

Thats if your good at ppc or you could lose more than your peanuts :-)

George you have to remember that this is purely sales and not profit. I’m not giving figures away as to profit, but remember I have PPC bills to pay.

I may have made £400k commissions, but it may have cost me £399k to generate it. It didn’t (thank goodness) but as I say those figures don’t tell the whole story. This post is more of a info point for merchants as to how hard us affiliate work and the results that can be produced in terms of sales for them.

Even at 1% commission, I’d walk away from a day job on five million of sales! Fantastic post – really inspiring to see how you’ve grown your business so quickly in just three years.
