MySpace Bulletin Case Study

By David Turnbull
First, I selected an appropriate offer from Azoogle.

8 ~6 c& E$ M* \& `$ x6 cID: 1876
Name: Superb Rewards - Free IPOD Nano (Brand New!)
Payout: $1.40
) w! U! {2 C4 B, j; J
  |0 D& Z+ [3 c" l6 t5 [6 wWhy did I choose this offer?
) n" v' Q; W$ W( Y) H- Pays for just the E-Mail; a simple action that can be completed by 99% of people.
# k' b. o6 j: g) T: g- Decent Payment ($1.40); One of the higher paying iPod offers so I thought it was a good choice.
7 y: o/ v; ]- r$ l- Good Reward (iPod Nano); iPods are all the craze lately, some may say it is saturated but a lot of people still don???t have, and want an iPod.
- Appeals to my demographic; It???s usually the younger people wanting iPods, so 18-25 is usually a good range.

& {3 {4 \/ o! ]8 tI have a MySpace account with 5400 friends (as of now) and I posted a simple bulletin with the following fields:
4 e$ F, x% K+ J0 p0 b+ R$ E
$ Y1 x  ^4 ?' B' TSubject: WOW!!! THIS IS SO EASY!!!
6 {  }& \9 k1 I, _( m6 t3 C% k0 b' fBody: Anyone with a MySpace account can get a FREE iPod just by entering your email address into this form!!!" CLICK HERE!!!

: |$ p6 a4 z0 k: d4 j" GOf course, I linked the CLICK HERE!!! to my advertisers web address.

' ^; @; W  x1 [( p& l2 I$ FThe Results?
Nothing too spectacular. I got about 10 people clicking on my Link and half of them completed the offer, so I didn???t make too much.

! z+ Y- u+ U  s0 [( N7 F7 _, SWhy? Probably because I???ve used this account for advertising in the past and people have become wary to avoid my bulletins. I did convert at 50% though, so that???s very good ??「 I just needed more clicks.

You have 100 Accounts with 5000 Friends each.*
Post a bulletin on each account.
Each gives $4.20 (Just 3 Conversions!)$420 in your pocket.
That is a very rough example, but definitely possible.

) Z, e* C$ }" @7 ^+ QYou have 100 Accounts with 5000 Friends each.
& N- f( }. {2 h5 q5 @+ wPost a bulletin on each account 3 Times a Day.
Each gives $2.00
$2.00 x 3 = $6.00

For those looking for the quick route you could also check out ScreenNameForum.com ??「 this forum allows you to purchase accounts or bulletins.

. D  j8 |9 \! k/ t! ]7 U*You may not have 100 Accounts with 5000 Friends each, so maybe cut a deal with other MySpacers (basically revenue sharing) and decide to advertise one Azoogle offer together and then split the profits accordingly.
