What a great week.
I’m feeling super, and I’ll be able to start back on the treadmill
this weekend.
Rachel’s back in the country, and she stopped in NJ to spend a
couple nights at our house. We spent 2 days at the office
brainstorming and my whiteboard is absolutely jam packed with
ideas. She’s still working her ways towards her home in Oregon, so
she isn’t totally productive again yet, but by the weekend, that
should happen. Whew!
It’s always nice to be in a happy frame of mind, you know? More
about that later.
As far as our brainstorming, some very exciting things are going to
happen this month and next, so keep a watch out, and if you’re an
affiliate you’re going to be very, very happy.

Just a bit of news. Rachel and I are seriously considering making
the Five Buck Friday either history, or maybe just not every week.
With the popularity of the dime sales, affiliates haven’t been
promoting the FBF events so much anymore, so we’re thinking it
makes more sense to focus on something that’s going to yield better
results.
This would give us more time in the week to find better products
for the dime sale, maybe test having dime sales during the week
instead of on the weekend (or both), and other ideas that we really
can’t do right now because of the email schedule being clogged up
with the multiple offers we’re already committed to every week.
If we do disband FBF, I’m thinking of having a “going out of
business” sale and mark them all, for 72 hours or maybe a week,
back to the $5.00 price.
And then we have a further idea after increasing the price back up.
There have been 20 FBF products so far, some have done much better
than others, but it doesn’t appear to be topic related, it’s more
“which affiliates are promoting it this week?” related.
And of course, if we stop doing them, we could change our mind in
the future, and start doing them again.
Any feedback would be appreciated, of course.

Forum threads of note:
A major part of my happiness and positive attitude is because of
some things I’ve posted in the saga thread. If you’ve read most of
the thread, just start here:
http://www.earn1kaday.net/members/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=12029&start=242
But please, don’t just read that single post, because later in the
week, I did another long one that I’m particularly proud and
passionate about, so…
If you need some refreshing of the power of just a small part of
the 5 Bucks a Day strategy, there’s a post in there that might wake
you up. I hope. I promise it will be worth your time.

It really annoys me also. Fortunately it doesn’t happen often, but
when it does I really get steamed up.
I heard from a friend this week that someone’s account got shut
down just because of a few too many open disputes. If anybody knows
what the magic number is, let us know by posting in the thread.

We’re having a little fun guessing game to see who can predict the
number of copies of this week’s dime sale get sold, you could win
$50:

Reminder: If you’re new to Earn1KaDay, or didn’t remember this, all
the weekly emails, from the beginning of time, are archived on the
blog here:

If you ever miss an email, or want to check the archives, you can
always go there and do a search.
Another reminder: I get asked (a lot) about the affiliate program
to Earn1KaDay. A thread was set up long ago with details, here:

That’s just a short review of some of the highlights, there is much
more going on all the time at the forum. Don’t be a stranger
there, that’s where the primary value of your membership is, after
all. We’re not there to chat so much (though there is a lounge
there if you want to unwind), we’re there to learn from each other,
and share with each other, and as you can see from the above sample
threads, there’s a lot of that happening.

Until next week, I wish you the very best in everything.
