Wicked Affiliate Spy Shit For Dudes Who Wear Black
Posted on November 5, 2007

Nine months ago, give or take a month or three, I wrote the most successful seller of software in the Internet marketing niche asking him if his existing software could do some wicked affiliate spy shit.
He wrote me back . . . “Cool idea. I’ll see what I can do.”
And that was that. Until about a month ago when I happen onto rumor from a covert conversation and discovered the guy took my idea and ran with it (big time).
Settle down and drop your guard amigo . . . this isn’t a sales pitch. I don’t have to “sell” this. I’ve used the software for a few weeks - it’s ass kicking cool and I recommend anyone doing anything involving affiliates get it - if you’re an affiliate marketer, get it; if you have affiliates who sell stuff for you, get it.
Got it?
Now, what really impresses me about this guy - and it’s something to consider seriously - is that his previous software releases have been at the TOP of Clickbank for over a year. You don’t sell crap and achieve that. And you don’t sell stuff easily gotten elsewhere and achieve that either. He delivers great products, supports them second to none, and keeps working on them until they’re as close to perfect as you’re going to get.
In this “wham bam thank maam, ha ha, I just fleeced these chumps again” niche, who doesn’t own a product created by Brad Callen?
The guy just creates quality product and if you’re as serious as I know you are, then you want to check out his next offer:
What you’ll find cool there right now is that Brad has already created and is making available a complete (and extremely comprehensive) training center - whether you buy the product or not (and another one of his secrets for staying at the top Clickbank).
Do I need to spell that out more clearly? . . . Sure, guys like Filsaime and Brunson can generate big enough buzz to get to the top for a few days or weeks - but this guy, without the hype, knows how to get to the top and stay there. The guy deserves his props.
OK - I have 2 hours to do all the work I’m going to do today and I’ve just spent 20 minutes of that typing up this note.

Hey X,
Hope your doing well. How’s Xeon? Or did you end up naming him something different?
Good stuff on Jelly Belly, I didn’t realize it was your idea. Hope you get something out of it.
You’re right about Brad remaining at the top of CB. I am not sure how many people notice that. He’s so quite, yet his stuff is so pervasive.
So it seems you’re up to a 10hr work week now huh?
On a different note, I need to give you a copy of my latest Xtreme3, it beats the heck out of the previous version. I’ll shoot you an email.
All the best to you,
Amir
Hey Amir -
Things are great - sleep deprivation aside. Taking some time away from work has been very refreshing.
We tagged the little dude “Aric Django”, but you know I really liked Xeon Django - has a nice ring to it.
Agreed on Brad - he deserves more high-praise as a marketer than he gets, but I think he’s fine with that.
Thanks for sharing the latest version of XC3 - I’ve heard good things about it.
All the best to you - X
PS - I should be more clear so it doesn’t seem Brad “stole my idea”, because it wasn’t an original idea of mine and he’s added a lot of other great things to the tool that I certainly had nothing to do with. I wanted a quick and easy way to ferret out other people’s affiliates and he’s created that (and it was available in the past in another piece of software I owned that the creator stopped supporting, so it no longer works).
Out of the woodwork come trotting the great bonus offers from Affiliates selling Affiliate Elite.
You know the ones…”I twisted Brad’s arm until he shrieked but he agreed I could give you this deal…” or “I have this secret in my closet and my friends say I’m crazy to share it with you..” or the worst kind “here’s $10,000 worth of software…”
Yeah, these guys really know their customers!
What I hear most is that IMers just want help. They’ve got more products than they need but can’t make money. Think they need another internet marketing widgetmaker?
How about just offering 30 mins of your time to review one of their campaigns,sales letter, etc? yes, I know that will take work and might be a pain in the ass but there’s a long term benefit…
A few months back one guy offered an hour of his time to buy via his link. Damn right I took him p on it. And when the next big offer came along, guess who I bought from. And then the next big offer.
Why? Because he helped me. What a concept.
So to all the gurus, think beyond this one sale and the few hundred you’ll make. Think of how you can help your customers and turn them into long-term buyers.

I like that suggestion Frank . . . let me think about how much time I can really give people and that will be my sweetener in the deal.

Ill have to second that comment by Frank. I too have experienced that nice little personal touch and have since looked much differently at a couple of people. It went a long way to helping me out and in return they have gotten a dedicated customer that opens every one of their mails oh and answers their phone calls too.
X, I think you are also one of the brighter lights in this tunnel of darkness and snake oil.
Thanks for all the insights..
