Hello everyone!

Good luck in getting huge success mate!
 
Day 32 - 19.7.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Prepare all products for promotion for sites #4 and #5. // 50% done (fully done for site #4)

I received one of the translation jobs. Waiting for two more to be done in the next few days.

The products for site #4 are prepared. Will send them to the VA for further work. Tomorrow is a day off, so I will finish 1) on Friday. Then will continue with the next tasks.
 
Today I got caught up in some urgent offline work, so I will resume working online tomorrow.
 
Day 33 - 22.7.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Prepare all products for promotion for sites #4 and #5. // done
2) Set up the new funnel builder. // done (now I have to work on the design)

So, first of all regarding the new farming strategy. I will know the incoming week whether everything works smoothly or I will have to change something.

All sites except site #2 are scheduled to be filled in with more products by the end of this month and promotion for them is currently running. Due to the fact that some of the campaigns will be at breakeven, others at loss and others at profit, I expect the earnings to be lower as a whole this month and increase in August.

Either way though, I will of course do an update on the earnings for July in the first few days of August.

I've registered a new domain for TS2 and I am exploring a new funnel builder now for WP. Using a nulled version of course to lower the expenses whenever possible but it's not working as expected and I am waiting for a reply on a support ticket which was created.

That's it for now.
 
Day 34 - 23.7.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Arrange SEO tasks for clients. // done
2) Optimize some paid campaigns for clients. // 90% done

I didn't get a response on the ticket from yesterday (cause it's Sunday obviously), so I decided to focus only on tasks for clients. One of the new clients is getting 4x ROAS on about 400 EUR ad spend, so he is pretty happy about it. I will see if I will be able to scale it up further. This is a promotion for an offline service. CPCs will for sure rise in September, so it's pretty early to tell how things will turn around in terms of profit for the long term.

I have to finish few more things regarding 2) which will take about 30 minutes and tomorrow if I still cannot arrange the funnel builder, I will set up the basic configuration for sites #7 to #10.

I have few more tasks planned for tomorrow but it really depends on the timing and how the day will go.
 
Day 35 - 24.7.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Some manual optimizations for all ad accounts. // done
2) Testing the new farming method. // done (ongoing; can't draw any conclusions for now)
3) Check the next translation that was sent today. // done (one more left but the last translator is late and if she doesn't deliver tomorrow, I will dispute the order and hire someone else. I have at least two people who will do the job)
4) Find a working cracked version of the funnel builder. // done (took a few hours though but I finally found it in a Russian site; wasted $30 on non-working versions, however the site owner may provide a refund, will see...)
5) Come up with a two good domain names which don't break any trademark laws. // done
6) Register the two domain names (have another 2 already registered), set up the sites and upload the templates. // to do tomorrow --> should take 1-2 hours. This was planned for today but I had to do some offline work later in the day.

After I am ready with 6) tomorrow, I will set up one more account and then will start playing with the funnel builder to see what I will come up with.

Everything else is going as planned.
 
Day 36 - 25.7.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Check the latest translation jobs. // done
2) Open one more ad account. // done

Unplanned tasks:

1) Check the VA work. // done
2) Some offline work. // done

The unplanned task 1) took about 6 hours. The worker was ready before the deadline which was set for tomorrow, so I had to check his work today. I will do this one more time for site #5 (now I did it for site #4) and depending on the total profit for all sites after a month from now, I may hire a manager to handle this, otherwise I will hire someone when the next 4 sites are ready and populated with products.

Task 6) from day 35 will be continued tomorrow.
 
Day 37 - 26.7.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Upload the prepared in advance template for the new 4 sites. // 90% done

The above task was planned for two hours, however it took the whole day today, because there was an error when the template was deployed. First I thought that it was because of theme incompatibility between PHP 8.0 and 7.4, however it turned out that it was something else and it took me few hours to find where was the problem.

I need about 40 minutes total to finish task 1) split between tomorrow and Friday. Then I will need 4 work days (about 8-10 hours/day) to finish the new sites.

I won't work tomorrow afternoon and on the weekend as well. On Friday I will focus solely on the funnel building.
 
Day 38 - 28.7.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Register two new domains. // done
2) Upload the templates and configure the sites. // done
3) Set up the funnel builder and create the funnel. // 10% done
4) Do a 301 redirect for a client. He won't use one of his sites anymore, so we will redirect it to an existing site. // to do | probably will do this on Sunday

Now I have 3 ad accounts warming up (need one more) + 4 new sites. As mentioned in the previous post, there is about 4-5 days of work needed for the sites.

Regarding the funnel builder - the cracked version has its limitations, but the goods news is that I can use it on unlimited sites after the main template is exported, so I didn't waste time on finding it and getting it configured.

Will buy the original version on Sunday and will go with it. If I need to deploy templates on dozens of sites, at least I can do it for free.

I will travel on the weekend, so will continue working on Sunday late afternoon or Monday morning.
 
Day 39 - 31.7.2023

Today I had more expenses than planned and I didn't buy a subscription for the funnel builder, so there is no progress on that task. I focused on other stuff instead.

Planned tasks:

1) Do a 301 for a client. // done
2) Set up some more warm up campaigns in the new ad accounts. // done
3) Manual review and fix for some of the tasks by bot #1. // done
4) Review all new products for site #4. // 90% done
5) Schedule the new ad campaigns for site #4. // to do tomorrow
6) Funnel builder. // to do tomorrow
 
Day 40 - 1.8.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Buy a subscription for the funnel builder. // done
2) Sales page setup. // 20% done
3) Review all new products for site #4. // done
4) Some manual fixes needed for site #4. // done
5) Schedule the new ad campaigns for site #4. // done
6) Finish setting up the warm up campaigns for the new ad accounts. // done
7) Some offline work. // done

For now I can't say whether the new farming and warming up method is optimal and works as expected. Will know more about this after a couple of weeks from now.

Either way though my goal is to have the 4 new ad accounts prepared and set up this month, because from September onwards I will create the actual money campaigns and will develop sites #7 to #10 with TS1.

A priority for this month will be account farming, updating all the content for sites #7 to #10 with the proofread translations, testing TS2 with the new funnel builder and checking how everything goes.

Apart from that I will also grow site #5 this month. Initial ad campaign budget needed for testing will be about 2k EUR for sites #4 and #5 and the first goal is to be at breakeven and then leave only the winning campaigns after 2-3 weeks. The auto rules will stop the low performing campaigns based on a certain criteria.

So, because of that the pure profit won't be very high in August as well. I will do an update on the earnings for July on Thursday this week. Tomorrow and on Friday I will have to travel.
 
Day 41 - 3.8.2023

For each site I am writing the profit after ad spend + workers' cost. I focused on site #6 in July and fortunately it is at breakeven (also has very small profit) with about 900 EUR in ad spend + other costs, so it should perform much better in August. Site #4 is being developed and the goal is to cover up the costs for July this month and be at breakeven.

The same thing will be repeated for site #5 this month.

In September I will minimize all expenses and see how things are going.

My system is not fully complete, so apart from testing the new traffic source, I will also perform additional tests with the existing traffic source but with separate ad accounts (to prevent unpleasant surprises) in order to see what I will be able to achieve over the next few months.

Once I have something consistent which can be easily duplicated I will deploy the system for all existing sites + the new four planned and then will expand further.

Earnings - 01.07.2023 - 31.07.2023

Site #1 - +248 EUR plus
Site #2 - +1381 EUR plus
Site #3 - +585 EUR plus
Site #4 - -391 EUR minus
Site #5 - +23 EUR plus
Site #6 - +23 EUR plus // funny coincidence that the profit is the same as for #5

Total: 1869 EUR

Additional expenses: -1127 EUR minus // (also noticed that 92 EUR was not marked as expense from the last month, so I am adding it to the total sum)

TOTAL PROFIT: +742 EUR ( ~24 EUR/day )

Planned tasks:

1) Review all new products for site #5. // done | took several hours
2) Change some settings for the new ad accounts. // 50% done
3) Sales page setup. // 20% done | not worked on it today, because of the unplanned offline work

Unplanned tasks:

1) Some offline work. // 50% done | will finish it tomorrow in the morning. There are changes in the plans, so I won't travel tomorrow and I hope that I will do some good progress with the sales page, depending on how long the offline work will take to get finished.
 
Day 42 - 4.8.2023

Planned tasks:

1) Some offline work. // 80% done | couldn't finish everything today, should be done tomorrow
2) Change some settings for the new ad accounts. // 80% done | will finish this next week, since it requires waiting
3) Some accounting work. // done
4) Sales page setup. // 40% done
5) Schedule all SEO jobs for the month. // to do tomorrow
