Robbie Blanchard 0:54
Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, that's great. So, tell me about that. You know, your journey so far. So obviously, you started Commissioning Hero not that long ago right?
Nick 1:02
No, I joined April 1.
Robbie Blanchard 1:04
Wow, that's crazy. So, well so, hold on a second you joined April 1 today is the 27th of April so less than a month and you already had your first $1000 day.
Nick 1:14
Yeah so on April 1, I started watching all your videos twice. Also simultaneously trained with Facebook blueprint and ClickFunnels yeah plus right you know, like I said, it's a you mentioned this before it's a business and even though you give a blueprint you know it's for Commission Hero on there's other things that we're using that the more we understand them, the easier it is to be successful. So I started my ads on the eighth and um, you know, then I don't know I guess it was the 24th I had my first thousand dollar day and the next day was $1,000. And yesterday was like 950 something like that,
Robbie Blanchard 1:52
Which is almost a thousand. Wow, look, man, that's that's amazing. Like, I don't think yeah, like, just so you know. That's, that's really good. Like, like the fact that you went and give yourself a lot of credit here because, you know, for you to start your ads on the 8th you said and then have your first thousand dollar day on the, on the 24th. Like, dude that's amazing, man. So kudos to you for, you know, putting in the work and just making it happen. That's amazing.
Nick 2:18
Yeah, if I can figure it out the tracking and the purchase pixel a little bit quicker. Yeah. A little more profitable. Yeah.
Robbie Blanchard 2:25
Well, coulda woulda shoulda right.
Nick 2:27
Right, coulda woulda shoulda, right.
Robbie Blanchard 2:29
I don't think anybody watched this video is gonna feel bad for you Nick.
Nick 2:31
No, no.
Robbie Blanchard 2:33
So tell me a little bit about your background and kind of your story and how you found Commission Hero in the first place.
Nick 2:38
Yeah, so I, I've been looking at I've done dropshipping for about a year, or six months ago, I bought some social media website or pages and some websites, and we're monetizing those and part of that was having to sign up for affiliate links, right. And I kind of learned at a time I'm a father of 12. And I work 55 hours a week and my day job was really hard to get some traction on that dropshipping just too much time with customer service. And so I was looking into affiliate so that the guy that I bought these from, I could, hey, I could replace all these links to the membership page and Clickbank have this thing said, Hey, our number one guys doing this webinar, I'm like, Okay, let's, let's look at that. And I literally just spent a couple thousand dollars on my wife's right here. So I don't want her to panic right now. I spent a couple thousand dollars on this print on demand and then... But again, it's a lot of work and with your program, you know, it just seemed like it was gonna be a lot easier for me. You know, I'm a little bit more of an introvert. You know, I try really hard to be an extrovert and, you know, crunching numbers and all that. I mean, I've been in finance for 25 years. So it's right up my alley. And so I did the webinar. The night You know, you're a great closer, you know you do the takeaways and, gosh, here we go again. I have about a month before the wife sees this on the credit card. But, I'm so glad that I did and it was perfect timing. My boss had just, you know, the quarantine it hit you know In March I had just traveled internationally so that made me stay at home. So I'm sitting here. I'm used to working 55 hours. The kids are making me crazy because they're teenagers or older. And you know, it was just you know, great timing and he cut my pay 65% so I'm like I'm not working, you know, working for the man sucks. So my goal was November 1st for my print on demand, you know to leave my day job. I think you listen to speed it up quite a bit.
Robbie Blanchard 4:44
Oh my gosh, that's amazing. Did you just say you had 12 kids?
Nick 4:48
Yeah.
Robbie Blanchard 4:49
Oh my gosh. Wow. Wow. So yeah,
Nick 4:51
Want a couple?
Robbie Blanchard 4:52
No, no...
Nick 4:53
I'll set up a good with a bad, you know, pair 'em up.
Robbie Blanchard 4:56
Oh my gosh, no kidding. Wow. So, so, I think this is amazing. You can, you know, first of all like to have your 12 kids you got you got a full time job and all stuff going on and you're able to within a little a couple weeks, I get to $1,000 a day, like.
Nick 5:10
Yeah and I gotta be honest, I put in 16 hour days to learn this and I was up till two, three in the morning. Part of that honestly was excitement I have not been this... print on demand and websites. There is a lot of stress and this is some stress. I fight that gambling mentality and talked about that a lot but I couldn't be any happier right now.
Robbie Blanchard 5:35
Wow, that's amazing. So, so, what do you think was like your big kind of aha moment like from now obviously, it's been a short journey to get to thousand dollars a day for you, which is awesome. Like what do you think is like your, you know, during the time where you were, you know, kind of head down studying like, what was kind of the big the big takeaway that really kind of got you to where you wanted to be?
Nick 5:52
No, I'm saying probably all the, all the, success in the group. You know, there are, you know, the people that you know, there's that top .1% like yourself, like. I guess you'd be the point 00001, right, because it is the top guy. But, you know, there's other people to make a lot of money in the affiliate space and other programs. But what's different about your program is that the community is incredibly helpful, even though we're competitive. Um, you know, there's that fine line of helping, but everyone's done great. And it's, you know, you've got people that have come from all walks of life that have been successful. And if people can just have that mindset that they are going to be successful. They put in the training. They can do this, anyone?
Robbie Blanchard 6:38
Absolutely. I agree. 100% It's like, you know, it just is just, it's proven time and time again. I mean, literally, that's why I love doing these interviews because like, there's so many different backgrounds and everybody that I interview, like, different people in different countries, different world of different ages. Like it's, it's amazing, you know, so I think that's, that's really powerful. And so, so, what would you say like as far as um, you know, like, like, because you’re an introvert right? So as far as, like, like, your skill set, do you find it was more of the creative side of things that was hard, harder for you? Or was it the technical side of things?
Nick 7:09
Um, it was, it was definitely the creative part. You know, like, what's great is, you know, with Fiverr. You know, I found three different people. I've used them all, you know, hey, I'm on 10 ads, just to try to find someone that could do the best.
Robbie Blanchard 7:23
Yep.
Nick 7:25
You know, and I think you get a good idea of the ads. And ironically, my, my adset is working the best and probably the most, you probably would have thrown it out. Being honest. You said, try everything. So I did dynamic creative. Each of my campaigns had, you know, five different visual images or videos and it was the plain one or more plain, in my opinion, that worked the best.
Robbie Blanchard 7:50
Sure. Yeah.
Nick 7:52
So I would say it's the creative side. Um, I struggle with the data and the technical side. I'm just having a hard time that we're trying to figure out how to manage it the best, been a little bit of a mess of the campaigns initially. In the inner circle with that, so...
Robbie Blanchard 8:08
Yeah sure. I love that I love that we just said to you about like with the plain the more plain image where you would have been like, I know what like I kind of gambler's mentality of like, Oh, you know what? This one's gonna work? Yeah. Like oh, this one does work so I love that it's good you said that that's
Nick 8:25
And the one that I love just totally bombed. And are you kidding me? Who doesn't watch Ozarks you know, it kind of follows that black and white thing?
Robbie Blanchard 8:34
Yeah,
Nick 8:34
No, it was horrible.
Robbie Blanchard 8:35
It was horrible, oh, wow.
Nick 8:37
I would have thought it was gonna crush it. No, it didn't.
Robbie Blanchard 8:42
Didn't crush it. Wow. It's crazy. So, so, what would you say as far as, like, you know, let's talk a little bit about mindset here because I think mindsets super important. I think that you know it's everybody wants to be successful and obviously you can be successful with Commission Hero I like but what has been like your, kind of your, secret sauce to being successful. Like, it's no obviously you put the work in there like that. What is your secret sauce?
Nick 9:05
You know, I'm a big proponent of different books on one's power of the subconscious. Another one is mindset. You know, just, I mean, my wife and I had to have a great mindset to weather the storm with 12 kids at some point, it was all cute when they were younger, they become teenagers. And so, you know, you really, you can't just say, you know what I'm going to try. And I, I literally did that with print-on-demand, even though I believe so much in power, the subconscious your mindset I was like, you know what, I should be able to stop by November 1st. And my wife is great, fortunately, held me accountable. And she's like, What do you mean, might anything you've ever decided you want to do, you're going to do so... What is it about this that's making you say maybe, right? So, it's great having a partner, you know, that helped me be that accountable, but people have to believe that they're gonna have they're gonna have maybe they only have 20 bucks to start with AdSense rather than $100 or 200 to start, you know, it all builds, right. And they have to start somewhere in the first place. Like you mentioned, this is knowledge, you know, you have to understand everything you're doing. You don't want to overthink it. You don't have to recreate the wheel you have created.
Robbie Blanchard 10:19
Yep. Yep.
Nick 10:21
I don't know. They just need to learn it. Plug and play.
Yeah, it's plug and play. I think the other thing too many people think is that they look for shortcuts. I think that they do realize that Commission Hero is a shortcut.And I've heard a lot of people, you know, on conference calls and stuff about trying to be overly creative and trying to come up with all this unique stuff. And, no.
Robbie Blanchard 10:41
No.
Nick 10:43
No, I can tell you that with my ads.
Robbie Blanchard 10:45
Yeah
Nick 10:45
My copy. No.
Robbie Blanchard 10:47
I love it, Yeah.
Nick 10:48
Stick to it.
Robbie Blanchard 10:49
For sure. Awesome. So Nick, let's, if you don't mind sharing your screen so we can show people what you're doing here...
Nick 10:58
Alright
Robbie Blanchard 11:00
Alright, let's see you where are we?
Nick 11:03
Get rid of my zoom.
Robbie Blanchard 11:08
Alright, there you go. Look at that. So you see, guys, yeah, this is, this is great. I mean, I saw
Nick 11:14
In this you can see in every week it's been doubling or more.
Robbie Blanchard 11:17
Yep.
Nick 11:18
Um, you know, I just hit five grand for the week, today.
Robbie Blanchard 11:21
Oh, yeah, definitely.
Nick 11:23
If we refresh it will, do that, you ready for a refresh?
Robbie Blanchard 11:26
Let's do a refresh.
Nick 11:27
Alright, come on, roll the dice. Ah, no I can't say that. Ah, shoot. I mean, you know, it's, I'm pretty happy with that, you know, three days.
Robbie Blanchard 11:40
Yeah.
Nick 11:41
Within, you know, averaging a grand. So today I should hit that.
Robbie Blanchard 11:45
That's, that's awesome. I mean, it just goes to show like I love the I love seeing the trends of everyone's campaigns because it's like, you know, you have your kind of, it'll let you kind of figuring things out like with your copy and creatives and stuff in the beginning there and then you kind of kind of get dialed in. You find those winners and you're like, Okay, now I'm gonna scale up these winners.
Nick 12:03
Yeah, my biggest advice for people. I was sharing this earlier, but you can see right here on the 20th. This is the first day that Jackie hooked up my purchase pixel. My fault. I gave her the wrong pixel ID.
Robbie Blanchard 12:17
Oh, geez. Okay.
Nick 12:18
That's really helpful. Yeah. Yeah. So, because I was doing dynamic creatives, I really didn't adjust anything until it was Thursday.
Robbie Blanchard 12:28
Yeah.
Nick 12:29
You know, all those dips in there. I'm pretty sure if I would have cut back earlier, it would have been a little steadier.
Robbie Blanchard 12:35
Sure, sure. For sure, that's okay. And that's, I mean, it's all part of the learning experience. Right. And I think that's, that's amazing, right. So like, what would you say to somebody? That's two questions, right. First question would be, you know, what would you say to somebody that's in Commission Hero currently, right? And just, you know, they're either just getting started out or they haven't had their big breakthrough yet. Like, what would you be your advice to somebody like that?
Nick 12:56
Um, get on every single call that you can. In the inner circle, I didn't tell you this, I accidentally joined the inner circle. Oh, thing I didn't intend to, I just kept on hitting buttons because it was like, wait, I wanted to be done. Like, what the hecks that $300 I'm like, Okay, well, let's just, you know, we're all in right? So that's the best 300 bucks ever spent, you know, your calls on Tuesdays, Victoria's calls are phenomenal. Group is phenomenal. So get on every single call. Like today I was at work. I know, it was a beginner call. Not a beginner, but it was a third week call. I still had it on my ear, but I was listening to everything that you said. And even though I feel like I'm probably beyond that step, you know, you always pick up little nuggets, and you never know what nugget you're gonna pick up. That's gonna help change things for you.
Robbie Blanchard 13:05
Oh, 100% like, this is why I always tell people like, you know, whether it's like, you know, networking events, things like that, where, like, just, I go to these things and just even calls I just even that one. It could be just one little sentence or one thing that said, you're like, oh my gosh like this is, changes the game. So yeah,
Nick 14:02
I didn't need to spend three days in that 15 seconds. Give me the bullet point, right? Yeah. And I would say just, I mean, watch the videos over until you fully, until you can explain it to your significant other or friend or Tom, whatever you can explain it to somebody, and they'll understand it. You need to continue to study looking at ClickFunnels, you know, some of their tutorials really helped me understand the funnel thought process, when you understand the thought process that helps plug everything together easier.
Robbie Blanchard 14:34
Yeah, I love it. That's I love what you just said there because it's like, you can if you can't explain it to like I said, your significant other, you know, a toddler like then then you need to keep learning it. Yeah.
Nick 14:46
I've had plenty of things before where like, yeah, I understand it. I go to do it. Like, oh heck, I didn't understand it as well as I thought.
Robbie Blanchard 14:54
That's awesome. So let me ask you the follow up question. So what would you say to somebody that is literally on the fence? I get a lot of messages from people saying, Robbie, I'm thinking about joining, but I'm not sure. Like, Is this real? Is this legit? Like, would you say to somebody like that?
Nick 15:08
I would say that there's more than one person that's successful. There's dozens, if not hundreds of people that are successful at this. Um, it's not. I don't want to discredit it, saying it's not rocket science, because you break it down so simply for everybody. And you only live once. I mean, what do you have to lose?
Robbie Blanchard 15:29
Exactly?
Nick 15:29
Yeah, you got to lose 1000 bucks. I can tell you most people who spent $1,000 on a heck of a lot more. Um, and they didn't have the opportunity whether it be eating out, smoking, whatever, you know, you You just need to find the money to do it. Yeah.
Robbie Blanchard 15:42
Yeah, I agree. I agree. That's awesome. Well, dude, Nick, man, I really appreciate you taking the time. I know you got a busy schedule and everything. I really appreciate the time to do this interview because obviously you know, people are always watch these interviews to get fired up and I know that you know, inspire a lot of people because I mean, if you can get to, you know, from zero to $1,000 a day and do it pretty quickly, then, you know, why can't somebody else right so awesome dude, any any last pearls of wisdom before we call it a day here?
Nick 16:12
No just when you do it you're all in you are going to be successful on several timelines like I had timelines when I first started, first ads go out on the 8th, the 20th, which was it's my quads birthday, they turn twenty four of them turned 20 and 4/20 that was supposed to be my thousand dollar day. So I missed that goal. Um, but you know, I hit my, you know, hit every other goal. So, and you need to do that, you know, and you need to set those goals, you need to understand that, I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna hit that. I'm gonna do whatever it takes up till three, four in the morning. It doesn't matter. You're all in.
Robbie Blanchard 16:47
I love it. That's man, I love that mindset. That's why you're successful. It's obvious that people need to see you need to see that and you can do that too. That's what it's like, you know, put in the work now and then later on, you're gonna reap the benefits.
Nick 17:00
Yeah, exactly. So next year This time we'll be able to sit in Costa Rica and instead of having one week and have to worry about coming back to work, I can stay there for a month, you know?
Robbie Blanchard 17:08
Yeah, absolutely, man. I know you'll do it. I know. Yeah.
Nick 17:11
Oh, absolutely. I'll send you a picture.
Robbie Blanchard 17:14
Yeah, send me pictures. Well, hey guys, Nick, thank you so much for being on the interview today. Guys, if you are watching this video and you want to jump into Commission Hero, that'd be a link on this page. Hope you guys have a great rest of your day and I'll talk to you soon.
