Affiliate Marketing with Google AdWords
I’d like to share a success story with you about one of my Mastermind Members, Ben Moskel. This one is called “Mastermind Member Quits Lawyer Job at 27.”
Four years ago Ben was stuck in the rat-race, working 80+hours per week as a lawyer defending large insurance companies, making just $45,000 per year.
(Do the math, an assistant manager at McDonalds makes $32,000 working 40 hours per week. Ben would have been better off working double shifts at McDonalds!)
Each morning on the way to his office, he walked by another young attorney’s office - “Carrie.” Carrie always intrigued Ben. Carrie was young, energetic, and always seemed happy.
Plus, despite being only 28 years old, Carrie drove the nicest car in the law firm’s parking lot (a BMW 5-series). Ben could sense this made all the old crusty partners a little uncomfortably jealous.
Carrie was making the same as the other junior lawyers at the firm, and with large law school loans, could not afford her lifestyle on just her regular salary. Ben was naturally curious as to how she had so much money all the time.
One day Carrie revealed how she was making extra money on the side. She told Ben that she owned a couple “Affiliate Websites.”
It turns out this “extra” money was a misnomer. Her affiliate websites significantly out earned her regular salary. In fact, she had one web page for a major credit card issuer that made her over $11,000 during the busy month of December.
Ben was hooked.
Ben purchased The Definite Guide to Google Adwords and subsequently became a Mastermind Member.
Fast forward 10 months and Ben found him walking into his boss’ office and handing over his resignation letter.
That was three years ago. Last year he earned over $1.2 Million from affiliate revenue using the very techniques he learned as a Mastermind Member.
Specifically, he discovered how to use Google’s content network for a source of dirt cheap traffic and low hanging affiliate commissions. He also mechanically rolls out dozens of landing pages to split-test sales copy and affiliate offers.
Ben has become what the affiliate industry calls a “super-affiliate.” Ben spoke at Ken McCarthy’s System Intensive in London and I heard it was a home run.
Ben is conducting a two-day affiliate workshop in Chicago on December 4th- 5th. This seminar is not for everybody. It’s only for those people who are serious about Affiliate Marketing.
If you are currently doing anything with Affiliate Marketing, or have any aspirations of getting into the business, then spending two days with Ben is a no brainer.
I’ll be there, speaking. This will not be my usual introductory AdWords talk – I’ll be assuming people know that. I’ll go into more advanced stuff and give my own unique perspective on what makes affiliates successful and why.
Ben is giving away the Blueprint to one of his $5,600-per-month affiliate websites for the first ten people to register.
