Andrew Fox Affiliate Millionaire Video 2 Review

I am a bit behind in my reviews of Andrew Fox’s affiliate millionaire launch but finally I had the chance to review video 2 and video 3 in the pre-launch sequence. After my initial uncertainty of video 1 and whether we will see anything new, I was pleasantly surprised.

OK, a lot of the information  maybe sort of rehashed – I saw sections which are definitely Fran Kern esque and the “solution markets” was straight out of what i have seen Eben Pagan go through but overall I was quite impressed and I have to admit this appears to be a quality product.

Firstly, lets focus on video 2

Affiliate Millionaire Video 2 is all about the following

1. How a tiny list of 332 people generated $4643.40 and $1281.70 from 292 clicks
2. Interview with one of Andrew’s $25,000 private clients who generated his first $10K affiliate payday
3. PDF of details on the promotion that generated $39,014 in affiliate commissions in less than 7 days by selling a $77 ebook.
   This validated to Andrew that Affiliate Millionaire works

So let’s focus on the first point

How a tiny list of 332 people generated $4643.40 and $1281.70 from 292 clicks

Andrew showed a selection of emails reviewing the email content, aweber email lists and most importantly the open rates and click through rates.

I was quite impressed with some of the aweber autoresponder statistics and downloaded them from the videos you will see below. What i ahve noticed is that his emails are very simple and a bit of andrews gift of the gab. have a look and see what i mean:

From: “Marketing Quickies 3 – Andrew Fox”
Subject: Andrew, private video for you …

Hey Andrew!

Hoh Hoh Hoh!

Happy Holidays – Look I’ve put together a very special video for you today with an *IRRESISTIBLE* offer …

So this is pretty damn valuable and genuinely limited …

Truly a “Christmas Only” Special

Many thanks,

Andrew Fox

What was impressive is that from this one email – it was emailed to 350 people with 178 opened email and 100 clicks

Now what this email was selling was 6 week cash course which with the sequence of emails got 96 unique clicks out of 119 and generated $2321.70 – 6 sales with another $2321.70 generated as a 2nd payment as part of a subscription plan 30 days later. You can see all theopen rates and click through rates that he generated below.

This is impressive stuff with the key being  to form bonds with the subscribers and following andrew’s step by step affiliate millionaire procedure.

I had a look through his email lists and noticed a few things.

Firstly, Andrew is a big fan of Aweber as his choice of autoresponder and I can personally vouch for that.

His emails generally start with :

“name, text he wants to talk about

e.g.

“name”, the traffic resource …
name, I need your feedback
personal… (confidential)

I notice that this is always in lowercase letters and Andrew is getting 60 – 100% open rates and at least 15% are clicking through on the emails which according to Andrew is not that hard to get these sort of sales.

In the affiliate millionaire course you get swipe files of his best emails and will teach you how to build your subscriber list.

His email sequence showed the following which is good intel for us:
26th and 27th October
19th and 30th November
18th and 19th and 31st December
2nd and 11th January

and that was the 1st part of affiliate millionaire video 2

Interview with Alex Jeffreys one of Andrew Fox’s $25,000 private clients

Alex first met Andrew in Feb 2007 at Mike Filsaime’s 7 Figure Code Seminar – in New York where he hounded Andrew to consult him in becoming a super affiliate. Alex had built a few products and was making $1500- 2000 but wanted better results get to next level.

After much hounding, Alex weent to Andrew’s office for 2-3 hours and was shown his paypal account, clickbank accounts etc. good old social proof and straigt for our benefit I assume!!!! but what he learnt was all the:

Do this, Do that  copy this email etc. all copy and paste stuff

Andrew reviewed Alex’s email campaignes and his overall comments were:

“You are being too nice. You need to enforce authority. You need to recommend product that sells well

So, after implementing andrew’s methods and using the email swipe files, when the promotion thatAlex was implementing this on (In fact one of Andrews own products!!!!) Alex was the top affiliate as his conversion rate was high.

Note: Andrew gave Alex very good pre-launch material with certain email templates. In the end Alex emailed 4 emails. 1 pre-launch, 2 on launch day(i messed up) and 1 day after.

the key thing is that you create buzz by following the formula – it is a system with email campaigns using  psychological stuff and copying andrew fox’s writing style plus the process around how many to send and when for them to go out.

Since then Alex launched John Reese’s Traffic Secrets 2.0 and made $16K. Michael Cheney’s Golden Thread and made $36K in 90 mins all after setting things up in a launch sequence using Andrews methods and in 2009 made over $500K in sales – VERY IMPRESSIVE STUFF and a good case study from a very nice guy.

Summing Up and PDF Review

The process that is followed is all about letting your list know 4-6 weeks in advance that a launch is coming and getting the subscribers to genuinely see that you are recommending it not being like what andrew calls a “vulture affiliate”

You have upper hand in that time to sell the preview clips weeks before and talk about the benefits of the product. During this time you can build up your bonus package with the course showing you  how to create content using 4 different methods and in your emails just talk honestly about things.

Check out the PDF Review of Andrew’s DayJobKiller launch for more examples and swipe files that Andrew provides

And finally the KEY to the whole process seems to be:

1. Solid pre-launch
2. Offer good bonuses
3. Have well written emails

And that’s all of my affiliate millionaire video 2 review. Video 3 to follow by now probably after Andrew Fox’s actual affiliate millionaire launch. Hope you enjoy and let me know if you buy it as would love to hear your thoughts in my blog

New “Secret” affiliate marketing product launch from Frank Michaels

I just received information about a new affiliate marketing product launch from Frank Michaels regarding “Secret Affiliate Income” a new product being launched on February 27th 2010. Certainly not the hype launch like the Andrew Fox launch happening at the same time on basically the same topic but interestingly none the less.

Is this just a run of the mill affiliate marketing product launch?

We’ll see over the coming week as the launch is on February 27th but what raised my eyebrows in his sales letter was when Frank was being asked to an interview at his bank where his local bank official, a detective from the fraud squad, and an internal auditor quizzed him over his $10,000 per month that was deposited into his bank account.

Not surprisingly he was suspected of money laundering. I did laugh when the same bank official contacted Frank and asked to show him his “tricks of the trade” and paid him $5,000 for the privilege – I like that!

What Secret Affiliate Income Contains

According to the letter I saw, it is a 4 module course with the topics being:

• Blueprint To Secret Affiliate Riches
  A 54 page manual setting you up with the right strategies. This seems relatively basic to me and would be good for a basic internet marketing newbie who is looking to get started in affiliate marketing

• Secret Top Income Affiliate Sources
  Which seems to me to be eBay, CPA networks and some other sources

• Affiliate Checklist & Workbook
  A 20 day checklist to get you started from scratch

• 5-Part Video Tutorial
  Video 1 – 3 types of little-known money-making sites
  Video 2 – Using blogs rather than websites and thr 4 key things you need to know
  Video 3 – Opt-in pages
  Video 4  – Auto responders
  Video 5 – Creating Interviews and using Audacity

Downloadable Report

Of course you get some free information when you get to the squeeze page and in this case you get the autopilot income report which is basically about:

1. Find your niche by looking at trends
2. Create a website or buy an existing one
3. Promote CPA offers on it
4. Promotion using SEO and article marketing

My thoughts

I have to admit none of this really blows my mind and I can’t help think I have seen all of this before in various other products. The only credit I would say is that the product only costs $77 so hardly going to break the bank and if you get one nugget of information it can’t hurt. At the worst case, you have the usual guarantee and in 60 days you can always ask for a refund

I’ll let you be the judge -> Secret Affiliate Income Squeeze Page but blah from me

Who is Andrew Fox and What is Affiliate Millionaire – Video 1

I have just finished watching Andrew Fox’s video 1 in his pre-launch of Affiliate Millionaire which is scheduled to be released on February 23rd and I have to admit reviewing this I am quite impressed with him as a person even if I wasn’t impressed with his landing page! – Come on Andrew you can do better there.

Firstly, he is very down to earth in the way he speaks – could it be the Irish lilt? and yet he showed very clearly his wealth with his Ferrari outside the garage and his boat or should I say ship! traveling around the Mediterranean during Summer 2009 which he decided to take off on vacation. Now that is a great life isn’t it!

Now the question you may ask is WHAT DID HE DO to get all this money – and the answer is very clear – Affiliate Marketing which has made him a super affiliate i.e. mega successful and well known!
One example that Andrew showed in the video was making $39K in less than 5 days by promoting a $77 ebook called Day Job Killer which was a big launch back in (I think) 2007.

This whole social proof and selling his credibility was very well done.

So, what is this Affiliate Millionaire all about

Firstly, a very bold statement was made by Andrew.

This is not something you are going to learn from any forum or a cheap e book

Big stake in the ground there from him so each of the pre-launch videos that I will review I will be watching them very carefully indeed. What we know so far is that it is NOT about using Google Adwords and NOT about Social Media or Web 2.0 and interestingly he says that he is doing the opposite of what most gurus teach. It is clear that Andrew is a super affiliate and this phrase is used a lot in the video so let’s see what he has to offer in video 2.

Thoughts so far?

Still need to be convinced if you ask me right now. You are going to be bombarded with emails by people promoting this latest affiliate marketing product but so far the three pieces of proof I have seen showing the money being made are I think from 2007. Have a look and see what I mean – http://affiliatemillionairecontent.s3.amazonaws.com/prelaunchvid2.f4v

My question is, does this methodology that Andrew Fox will be providing in Affiliate Millionaire still work in 2010?
