Review - Clickin It Rich by Michael Campbell

Michael Campbell was the reason I got into affiliate marketing. My wife and I were desperate to start an online business after being treated very badly by our bosses. People in authority often forget that it is the people working for/with them that allow them to keep their high paying job. The ant colony does not get built and prosper because of the fat queen ant lying on her back spitting out eggs all day. In fact, she would quickly wither up and die if it were not for her loyal workers.

Michael's book, "Nothing but Net" was my bed time reading, my constant companion, my bible. This one book inspired me, and made me beleive that anyone really could start up a business online, and succeed.

By the time Michael released the first version of Clickin It Rich, we were already making a small income due mostly to my wife working through the night on a slow internet connection that dropped every 30 minutes or so. We had a special internet plan that allowed us to use the internet between 6pm and 8am 5 days a week. She would come to bed at about 6am, as I was heading out the door to drive into Madrid for my job (it often took 3+ hours to make the 45Km journey from out home). Oh the memories!

Clickin it Rich is now in version 3, and Michael has added a few extra bonus reports to the package.

Let's have a look and see what you get.

Clickin It Rich PDF document. Imagine if you were given an hour to interview Michael on the topic of affiliate programs. What would you ask him? Clicking It Rich starts off as an interview with Michael in which he answers a lot of the questions, that I know from experience, a lot of beginners want to know. For anyone wondering what affiliate programs are, or how you can make an income from them, this section is a great read. As a bonus, you get the hour long interview in MP3 format. Burn it onto a CD, or load it into your MP3 player, and be inspired as you go about your daily business, listening to Michael).

Michael moves on in the eBook to specific items of help, not just for beginners, but also for seasoned pros who want to boost their income. The section entitled "10 Secrets to Making the Sale" is a great checklist. Not all appear to be applicable to affiliate programs, but they are - your merchants should meet these criteria too. If their site does not meet these 10 criteria, you may well find that conversions suck.

The book moves onto a bonus chapter called "How to Become a Super Affiliate". Super affiliates are those that make huge sums of money online promoting other people's stuff. Michael talks you through some strategies to achieve this goal, including how easy it really is to write your own eBook. I loved the super affiliate sections of the book because I found them very inspirational, like much of Michael's writings.

If you want a good all-round knowledge of affiliate programs, and how to make them work for you, I really do recommend this book. If you are looking for a little inspiration, or maybe a few new ideas, again, I think this book may be a good one to add to your library.

OK, that is the main eBook, but what else do you get in the package?

Michael has added an Action Plan which fills a gap that I felt was missing in the first edition of Clickin It Rich. This 30 page action plan is a detailed guide of exactly what to do to set yourself up online. If you dont have your own solid plan for building your web empire, use Michael's. He discusses many of the techniques that top affiliates use to grow and develop their business.

Another great report in Clickin It Rich is the Keyword Hotlist. This report is a must for anyone who struggles to come up with ideas for a niche site. Michael gives you a list of "idea generating" keywords that you can plug in to Wordtracker to find niches you would not otherwise think of. While this report is only 3 pages long, it is three pages you really do not want to ignore - there is pure gold here.

In case you want your niches handed to you on a plate, Michael has included yet another bonus report in the package. Top 25 Markets, is a just what the title says - a list of 25 markets that Michael has found to be most profitable for him. This report is only a single page long, but again, for those who have difficulty coming up with the ideas, this page is a great idea-generating tool.

Overall, Clickin It Rich exceeded my own very high expectations. I knew Michael would not disappoint with version 3 of Clickin It Rich, I just did not really appreciate its full value until I printed it out, sat down with my marker pen, and began to going through the information in the package.

As a seasoned affiliate marketer, I find that I often need a new injection of enthusiasm to get on with my next site. Reading Michael's Clicking It Rich has given me the same feeling I felt when I first read Nothing But Net. Pure excitement. I highly recommend this book.
