Never Underestimate Your Impact!!

August 1st, 2008 by ToolTrainer

OK, it’s been a few weeks and I still haven’t posted anything about TAC, or anything else for that matter!

Before you go thinking “bad blogger!” at me for not updating my blog all the time, keep in mind I am not now nor have I ever claimed to be “a blogger” even though I do use blogs for various things. ;) I’ve got an entire affiliate marketing business to run every day, and that is my #1 focus at all times because it’s what keeps a roof over my head and food in the fridge!

But I do want to share SOMETHING today, so… check this out.

A good friend of mine and fellow affiliate marketer watched TAC, and I made a passing comment to him afterwards about how amazing it was to be totally focused on a singular goal.  He pinged me yesterday with a few remarks… At first I didn’t quite get it, but once I did I was really blown away and humbled by them:

“I got back to my apartment and realized i grossed over $5k today cuz of YOU and what you did so quickly.  I turned on the same focus you told me about and pumped out dozens of campaigns and 1 popped and I’m earning $1-2k/day net from it. You made me reach into myself and pull out what i thought i didn’t have.”

That’s not something I hear every day… and it really made me stop in my tracks.

All I did was take part in some goofy reality show, right?  I mean, it wasn’t even on TV… what impact could it possibly have had??

I have a feeling, my friend would argue that it had a HUGE amount of impact.  I think it had more impact on him than it did on ME!  Take this as a reminder that everything we do, no matter how big or small it seems to us in the moment, has an impact.  It has an effect.  We may never know just what our actions have done, just what events we’ve set in motion… but they’re out there.

More to come, stay tuned!

And uh… it’s over!

Holy cow… I didn’t manage even a SINGLE blog post the entire duration of the show!!

I had all these grand visions of documenting everything as it happened, but the reality quickly became apparent that it was going to take nearly ’round-the-clock work, to pull off the numbers I wanted to hit.  And sure enough, that’s what I and my team members ended up doing.  Working from 8am until about 2pm with barely any stops, just about every day.  It was crazy!!  But then again, so were our numbers.

I’ll have a lot more to say in the near future as I get settled back at home again and get back into the normal life groove… so stay tuned.  Thanks to everyone for all the support and congratulatory thoughts, they are much appreciated!

Talk to you all later,
