Hi Gang

OK - here's my own RRW Challenge.


You are totally fresh to the Internet. No website, no product, no list, no idea...
You have a burning need to make $1000 by September 26th 2011.
You have no possessions to sell on eBay.
You have 21 hours a week to devote to your 'problem'
You only have access to the items available to the FREE members of RRW (sorry Goldies  ) plus anything else you can get from other sources.

Can it be done?

Let's leave this thread open until Monday 29th August 2011 6:00pm forum time (see the top right hand corner, just under the Forum RSS Feed link for the forum time).

At that point, I'd like Mark to lock this thread and let's see if the ideas and suggestions put forward actually work.

On 26th September, let's unlock the thread and write up any success stories that might have happened.

Anyone willing to take up the gauntlet and actually show everyone the journey they took to make their $1000?

Sign up below and let's get everyone making their own grand online.

Good luck

Val

Sorry - I've just re-read my OP and I feel I should clarify a few points.

What I am looking for is your system that you would put into action to make a grand online by 26/09/2011 (09/26/11 for our trans-atlantic cousins)

Doesn't matter what it is: PPC, CPA, article marketing, Yahoo Answers - whatever you know, believe, think would/might/could/should work

Feel free to give as much info as you want - obviously the more detailed the plan then the easier it would be for others to run with it.

It can be done on a showstring or it can have as much cash thrown at it as you want.

It can be: Affiliate marketing, eReader publishing, Apps development and marketing, Product creation and selling, CPA systems, blogging, coaching, mentoring - whatever floats your boat.

If you want to lay bare your methods for cash generation in the full awareness that others could well use your techniques for their own gratification without crediting/paying you and you're fully happy with this, then please do sign up below and let's actually do some good in this awful, worldwide economic climate we're in.

I'm game. I will get my thoughts together and have something by Sat morning.

[valpubs]

Snap Paul

I'm looking forward to being able to give something back.

[valpubs]

Right - my plan is simple.

I'm going Old Skool.

I'm going to choose a product on Clickbank and I'm going to use standard promotional practices to see if it is still relatively easy to make ca.sh online by affiliate marketing.

I'll be predominately using the product owners' own affiliate material (just as thousands of others do) and I'm really looking forward to the results.

I'll be keeping a Blogger about my trip and I'll post the link up on this thread on September the 26th so people can see what I did.

This is going to be profitable - I can feel it.

Man, this is some kind of challenge D!

So, I guess the hardest part is to forget what you know and feign total
ignorance. Just happened to stumble upon Resell-Rights-Weekly.com
and go from there??
 
Not easy at all, but that's what makes this such a "can't pass it up" test.  :-)

I'll try to figure out something by the primary deadline. Still, it will be great to
see what everyone comes up with.

Man, Dom, when you speak, you speak!

What a challenge.

Good luck.  

And I'll have to think about this.

I like your style ~K, but perhaps it might be easier to put yourself into a 'new to the forum' person's shoes?

They come along and read the entries we and others have made and think 'Yeah - I could do this' or even 'OMG! Where do I frickin' start?' but instead of doing this  then a lot of this  , perhaps even some of this:  I want them doing this:

Been there, done that

If it's OK to the rules, I'll at least try to approach it from a complete Newcomer's perspective.

Hi Dom,
Very cool idea. Sadly, I'm knee deep in a project so can't commit but wanted to send you a big ol' thumbs up and wish everyone the best.

I'm really interested in seeing how it comes out.

Excellent idea  , something I had in mind when I started this thread

http://resell-rights-weekly.com/forum/main/how-many-of-you-are/

but never followed up with. :'(

The 20/80 rule worked perfectly in the poll.

20% said they were earning regular income.

So the takers of your challenge will be few in number I guess.

Me, not in the 20%  :'( and that is probably why I did not follow up.

Very interested in the outcomes.

I have decided that i will take a service provider route. I will take my skills and become a service provider on various websites, for example, odesk,elance,etc.

With my skill set and knowing the going rates in the market on these sites I should be able to make 1,000.00 by the end of Sept.

To show everyone what I am doing I will go ahead and post updates and strategies on my blog here===> http://paulg2.com/category/1000inamonth/

Good luck Dom, I won't be taking up the challenge. Not in a frame of mind at the moment to tackle anything.  You mentioned that you would take a product from Clickbank and use their materials. I would re write the e mails, blogs etc. That way it is original content. Think about the thousands of affiliates that do that and not bother changing content. I would also suggest to change graphics although if you're on a low budget then it might not be a good idea.

Regards

Sorry Jim - I've only just seen this post - I, too, was part of the 80% but desperately want to get into the 20%.

Put it this way, this adventure is a "burn my boats" type of exercise. If I don't generate cash using standard affiliate marketing tactics then perhaps I'm not meant to be an affiliate marketer - I'll have to look elsewhere.

Let's see what will happen - (under 5 hours to go til lockdown!)

Good solid ideas there Donald - let's see what happens
