First result!

This email came in at 4:32AM on the 17th...one lead...I checked the IP address and sure enough it was local to the insurance agent.

He followed up with an email to the lead.

We shall see.

That lead took 6 days to come in.

But a I paid only 25 cents for that lead which is fine...and remember I'm targeting a very SMALL area.

Time to target the whole US of A...

 

October 18...

Today I started a new campaign for my mystery shopping product.

You'll notice above the recommended CPL is 51 cents and my bid is 25 cents.

I'd prefer to get the leads as they come in but AWEBER isn't one of the services they are set up for so I went with a daily CSV file

 

Below is the recap of my offer.

camp27 camp28

I completed all of the above at approximately 5:30PM

I questioned whether the ad would be approved since I used the name of a major corporation in the advertising.

Notice the time on the two emails below.

The OFFER APPROVED email actually showed up before the "reviewing" email although both arrived the same minute!  🙂

I got back to my computer about 10:15 PM and was surprised to see that my balance was now $22 whereas at 5:30PM my balance was $29.75.

I was extra surprised because I put my daily budget as $5 for this campaign and $7.75 was gone.

I will investigate in the AM.

I clicked REPORTS and was shown this...
camp211

31 Leads in less than 5 hours.

I clicked the EXPORT button above in the hopes that I'd get the leads immediately but no...just the report in EXCEL format.

 

camp212

 

I assume I'll get the leads in the early AM and I will follow up tomorrow and add them to an auto-responder and see how many visitors I get...and with any luck...some sales.

Of course, now I'm kicking myself for bidding 25 cents...shoulda tried .10 first!

Thanks for watching!

P.S. I wonder if the fact I'm getting the leads for half the recommended bid is because most of my $30 beginning balance was from them for signing up?  Will have to track results.
