1. Most of the Business fail due to poor messaging, that’s why Copywriting is very very very important.

   Even I have wasted my 3.5+ years without knowing what actually matters in any business.

   Copy is actually the core/soul of any business.

   1. Totally agree! Learning copywriting will always pay off.

   2. Also having a good budget for testing

   3. That’s a great point that a lot of newer affiliates don’t realize. You never want to be testing your affiliate “hypothesis” and have to stop in the middle because you don’t have enough cash to keep your campaign going!

   4. Pls I need your help
      Can you help me with chatgpt prompt for my copywriting
      Thanks 🙏

   5. Happy to help if I can! Do you have a little more information about what you’re trying to accomplish with ChatGPT for copywriting? Is it for ads, landing pages, emails, articles, videos?

      As a side note, I made another video on ClickBank’s channel about AI prompt engineering that you may want to check out if you haven’t seen it yet: https://youtu.be/h8LG2D7mhXI

2. Good information sweet 👍

   1. Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it.

3. Join Spark to learn how to become an affiliate marketer – https://sparkbyclickbank.com/

   1. Valuable and great content. I’d love for all the content to be dubbed into Spanish; it would certainly be invaluable for the Hispanic market. There’s a large affiliate market and a lot of potential there. Greetings from Argentina.

   2. @@joserobertomeneses8196 Thanks for the feedback! We’ll see what we can do.

4. I’ll be real—after finishing Nixorus by Dorian Caine, my first thought was “how the hell is this book even allowed?” It straight-up ripped apart everything school, family, and society taught me about money. No fluff, no motivational clichés, just hard, raw truths you won’t hear anywhere else. Now I get why this book isn’t mainstream—it’s too real. If you find it, grab it before it’s gone.

   1. No one cares about your AI generated book.

   2. Sounds intense! Love books that challenge everything you thought you knew about money. Definitely adding Nixorus to my reading list before it disappears.

5. All respectation for you
   According to my four years in affiliate marketing
   I can say no sales without spending money on paid traffic

   1. Thanks for sharing!

6. stright question
   Is affiliate marketing or products in ClickBank still profitable for beginner affiliates in 2025?

   1. We have hundreds of top affiliates and sellers making money with affiliate marketing on ClickBank. I’m personally a modest affiliate who still sees product sales while doing this on a very part-time basis, so I know it’s possible to make money with it. My best advice is to pick your path (niche + traffic source + audience) and become a master at that specific combination. I hope that helps!

7. Have you noticed? Despite your thumbnail design being attractive and the content amazing, your videos don’t receive many views, and the tags you have used are very short-tail keywords.
   Your video will never appear on the first page when you search for it on YouTube.
   Do you want your video to be professionally optimized for SEO and reach your desired audience?

8. What would you do if you have 1k usd to start with? Is that very little? How much meta paid ads a day?

   1. Meta Ads is a solid place to start for learning paid media, and it will likely require a smaller daily budget for affiliate marketing than other paid platforms like YouTube or native. You might get away with $20-50 per day on Meta, where other platforms are closer to $100 per day.

      But ClickBank recently partnered with native platform NewsBreak, so you should also consider taking advantage of their $500 ad credit for ClickBank affiliates to get started: https://www.clickbank.com/blog/clickbank-and-newsbreak-are-partnering/

      You can also qualify for this ad credit if you sign up for Spark and take the native ads course in there. I hope that helps!

   2. Check out Episode 118 of Affiliated with Isaac Kevelson where we talk about that exact question: https://youtu.be/sXSR0ekUMfM?si=V28dqLf42e7Cozpt

9. Valuable and great content. I’d love for all the content to be dubbed into Spanish; it would certainly be invaluable for the Hispanic market. There’s a large affiliate market and a lot of potential there. Greetings from Argentina.

10. Forgot John Benson, and Ben Stiles

    1. Thanks for the additional coypwriter recs! The more, the merrier.

       The most important thing is to get the fundamentals down, whoever you choose to learn from.

    2. ​@ClickBankYT I had a question for you. Inside ClickBank Accelerator do you have training on Facebook and Native Ads? Also do you have Native Ad templates?

    3. So, we have trainings on both native ads and Meta Ads, but those are inside of Spark by ClickBank, the official affiliate education platform from ClickBank. You can learn more here: https://sparkbyclickbank.com

       As for templates in Accelerator, I wouldn’t say it has “native ad” landing page templates per se, but it does have pre-built advertorial and video presell templates that are both commonly used for native campaigns. If you’re looking for a head start on building effective landing pages, the included Accelerator templates should be super helpful!

11. You just confused the 💩out of me

    1. Well, that wasn’t my goal! 😂

       Do you have any specific questions I can answer here or maybe in a future video?
