Disclaimer: Everything I say is simply an idea – I’ve not thought about all of the logistics, I have not done this — this is just a brain vomit of something I consider to be a good idea for someone who is 20 to 26 years old.
Credit cards give out good amounts of money for leads, right? I’m sure you’ve sat around and tried to think of at least one way to push them on some site you have. Maybe you built a site around credit cards — well, I’ve got an idea that will blow your mind away. What if you stop trying to push them online, and started doing it in real life. Think of how many morons you have seen signing up for Credit cards to get a free tshirt! They do it everywhere! Hell, I was in the Philadelphia airport the other day and I saw 6 people sign up for the Southwest Visa Card just to get a stupid 76ers shirt.
Here is 10 easy steps to make an asston of money doing affiliate marketing / credit card promotions:
- Sign up with Commission Junction or affiliate program that has credit card offers
- Find nearest university, find hottest sorority, ask what philanthropy they support.
- Give sorority girls laptop, your affiliate URL, and $10 to $15 per lead they get signed up
- Incentive: Give away free “Go CollegeName” t-shirts at tailgate events
- Earn $60 to $120 per lead gathered.
- Pay money to sorority as a donation to philanthropy (the elusive tax write-off)
Yes, You could shoot bullet holes in this idea all day long — or you could just do it, get a bunch of drunk frat guys to sign up for cards to pay their fraternity dues, and make $1000 to $5000 a weekend in a small college town.
Now, here’s the mindfuck — pay someone at different schools to organize this for you, and scale the eff out of this!
Don’t ever say I didnt give you a $100,000 dollar idea. You’re just too happy sitting in your office cube earning $13 dollars an hour to jump on this…
