I know deep down if you are here reading this, at some point  in your blogging life you want to make money blogging.  To do that usually the more traffic your blog gets the better your chance is to make money.

This is maybe the only time you will hear me say “ more traffic isn’t always a good thing”

You may of heard or even tried Entrecard.com, basically you get a 125×125 picture that you use to promote your blog, and you get credits by “Dropping” other peoples card’s on their blogs.

Now I used Entrecard pretty much as perfect as you can…

1.    I did 300 drops a day “daily limit”
2.    I dropped in my niche
3.    I returned every drop I got in return
4.    Any blog PR 3and above I dropped and commented
5.    I placed my add on niche blogs, and had 50-100 ads running each day

Yes that’s right, Video comes from a Emmy award winning editor that has not joined the Internet Marketing world.

Andy Jenkins is The Video Boss, and he has worked with all the top Internet Marketers like John Reese, Frank Kern etc… they all call Andy for one reason, his videos get great results!

Some of his videos have produced a million dollars in sales in one day. I’d take that in a year

Best part, is Andy is an awesome down to earth guy that is really into helping people.

Check out his FREE video series called Video and don’t worry no sales pitch just REAL step by step content, so takes notes.

Trust me, it will make you see the power and simplicity of using video to sell your products.

Andy has released 3 videos so far and forth on it’s way, so take some time over the weekend and watch all 3 Video Bosss

<p>It has been 2 weeks since I officially launched Twitter Dummy Guide, so I wanted to share my results and also some things I learned from my first product launch.

This was my first product launch, and I have to say it opened my eyes to a few things.

    1-Launching a product is HARD and takes A LOT of work. I mean I’m not expert at launching a product, but I did spend about a month reading as much as I could on the topic.

    2-The blogging community is awesome and showed great support for a up start blogger like me.

Let’s talk about the hard work, here is just a few things I did to promote Twitter Dummy..

1-Press release sent to about 100 websites.

2-Article sent to about 200 websites.

3-Submitted Twitter Dummy Sales page to over 200 directories.

4-Wrote a sales page

5-Finished ebook and worked on banner ads for affiliates

6-Setup affiliate system for Twitter Dummy

7-Contacted bloggers and marketers to get a JV partnership.

8-Wrote 2 posts to build buzz around twitter marketing

9-Drank more coffee then I thought I ever could

That is a small list of everything I did leading up to and thru out the launch.

Blogging Community Support

Let me start by saying not all bloggers were interested or even liked the guide. But that’s ok, the fact that they answered my email and were nice enough to congratulate me and wish me luck in my launch was pretty damn cool.

Having people that are #1 in the world like ShoeMoney, Darren Rowse, Chris Brogan to reply to my email directly.. and show support was a BIG eye opener. What I will say is work on the email you initially send, I think that is why I had such a great response from people I reached out to.

Bloggers That Were A Big Help

First was Kevin Muldoon at BloggingTips.com  Kevin did a nice Twitter Dummy Review

I have to say Kevin was awesome, answered my questions and even offered me a guest posting slot on BloggingTips.com, Just a str8 up nice guy!

Next was Tyler Cruz at TylerCruz.com  Tyler did a Twitter Dummy Giveaway Contest  connected to his Twitter account, very cool idea. Again another really nice guy that was a great help.

Then we have Robb Sutton at RobbSutton.com  Robb wrote I think the BEST Product Review I ever read..lol  After reading it I was like “Damn I’m Awesome” lol

Robb was a great help and again another nice guy that answered all my questions.

Like I said earlier, not all bloggers replied or were willing to promote Twitter Dummy for their own reasons.

But a nice side benefit  was even though some said no to promoting Twitter Dummy, some did offer me guest post opportunities, and some just acknowledged that they knew who I was and about my blog, from the comments I have left on their blog over past few months.

So that is proof that your “Quality” comments on other blogs do get you noticed.

How Did Twitter Dummy Do

So far I have made 4 sales before the launch and 53 sales after, about 30% of that from a few affiliates.

Now I don’t know how good or bad that is compared to most product launches, but I know for the time and work I have put in I am happy with the results so far, since I don’t have a big list to sell to, my blog is growing but I don’t have 10,000 subscribers to sell to, all I had was hard work and a few blogger relationships to help.

For anyone thinking about launching their own product I say DON’T lol  it’s hard work.

Now if your ok with hard work, long hours, no sleep, then go for it.

In the end you will have your own product to sell for life and no one can take that away from you.
