On a weekend. That was quite unexpected (I had almost turned off my ads for the weekend on the assumption they would not lead to money). For full price, from my website. Unfortunately, a misconfiguration kept Google from recording it as a conversion (so I’m not sure exactly how this particular customer found me), but I get paid just the same.
For those keeping track, thats two weeks and a day after launch. At the moment (with a free Payloadz account until I get, hmm, 3 more sales), that means I clear 24.95 – 1.02 (paypal fees) = $23.93 profit. Thats about 80% of my advertising budget for my first month, which is now half completed.
My First Sale!
I can’t believe nobody commented her with a congratulatory message.
You made a sale! AWESOME!
Does the first sale still seem like the best to you?
I’ve been reading your blog in order (as others are too, I’m sure), and even knowing in advance that you end up being quite successful, I kept waiting to hear about your first sale.
I know from experience how exciting that first sale is!
