MySpace Bulletin Case Study

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

I have a MySpace account with 5400 friends (as of now) and I posted a simple bulletin with the following fields:

Subject: WOW!!! THIS IS SO EASY!!!
7 G1 x9 u/ i. aBody: Anyone with a MySpace account can get a FREE iPod just by entering your email address into this form!!!" CLICK HERE!!!
/ J& k; G% _0 A6 b, E
Of course, I linked the CLICK HERE!!! to my advertisers web address.

The Results?
# j, B: {" [* WNothing 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.

Why? 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.

Here is some motivation to get started, as MySpace Bulletin advertising definitely can work.

You have 100 Accounts with 5000 Friends each.*
Post a bulletin on each account.
4 `$ L7 v/ E8 E+ j( oEach gives $4.20 (Just 3 Conversions!)$420 in your pocket.
That is a very rough example, but definitely possible.

' }+ K& T) T( x8 j( D0 UBulletins get buried fairly quickly also, so if you post 3 a day, and say you get an average of $2 per bulletin.

You have 100 Accounts with 5000 Friends each.
1 e: F# y! V, O6 q5 c* z8 C$ QPost a bulletin on each account 3 Times a Day.
Each gives $2.00
9 _: Z3 N/ X+ h# I$2.00 x 3 = $6.00
0 C, X* t' ]6 M$6.00 x 100 Accounts
$600 in your pocket

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

% d! X) b3 D( d% N  F*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.
