First $150/Day with 11.59% Conv Rate on Gumroad

25th April was first-ever $150/Day ( Technically Very Close ) on Gumroad with a Whopping 11.59% Conversion Rate.

With Just 400 Followers on Twitter at the time of achieving this, it was a feat for me.

Overall Profits Until 1 Month of Launching is $429 with still 3 Days to April End.

P.S:- Traffic Sources Were From Variety of Channels.

    Nice to see Quora getting some attention. I did it for my previous firm as well, generated over 30k visits from just Quora.

    Here is the profile I did it with: https://www.quora.com/profile/Shiva-Prabhakaran-2

    Now I wonder, is your main source of traffic that actually converts, from Quora?

    1. 1

      The Traffic Sources are from Various Sites Which Includes Quora, Twitter, LinkedIn, Medium, Product Hunt & Facebook.

      Currently, the major chunk is from Twitter & Rest are all the other channels. It has been only 1 month so cant really judge any channel yet which is working better.

      I believe in the Omnichannel approach.

        Ah ok that’s nice to have traffic from multiple sources. But I can imagine that if you’d run an add for your product on Twitter it might be less effective than on Quora itself haha.

        But congrats man, it must feel amazing to see dollars coming in for something you made!

          Nah, I dont believe advertising on Twitter. Its a whole different game on Twitter. Its abt building real relationships out there & providing value.

          Yeah, the dollars are pretty good to see. I was inspired by Daniel Vassallo ( Ex-Amazon). He now sells digital products on Twitter. He sold $100k worth products in 1 year. That was literally amazing.

          Mine was small & just the start.
