How To Make A Million Buck In a Week From Facebook

written by John Chow on October 26, 2007

How to make $593 in less than one hour

While the Facebook Developer Garage was mostly filled with geeks who couldn’t make money online if their life depended on it, there was a presentation from my buddy Jason Bailey of Millnic Media (they gave me the MS Zune that nobody wants).

Unfortunately, we weren’t able to catch Jason’s speech because it was after the break and we had already left for the Memphis Blues BBQ House. Fortunately, Jason made a video of his presentation. I would have loved to see the look on the attendees’ faces when Jason told them there were Facebook marketers who’ve made over a million bucks in a week with Facebook.

In these two videos, Jason gives three concrete examples of how people are making huge coin off their Facebook Apps using CPA offers that can be found in Millnic Media. When watching the videos, see if you can come up with other ways to integrate the methods Jason talks about.

I really need to start paying more attention to Facebook. Especially with their new ad network coming up.

SEO Optimization October 26, 2007 at 7:56 pm

Yeah, i have been totally ignoring them (not only them, but all social sites), but facebook seems like is one of those that deserves the attention.

Hus Nehpet October 26, 2007 at 8:06 pm

Facebook was recently valued at 15 billion. Guess we can see why

Blackysky October 26, 2007 at 8:58 pm

McAfee said that about this website: SiteAdvisor’s analysis says “We tested this site and didn’t find any significant problems.”

Well, I have a problem. Millnic Media is the “CashEngines” of the gift scam business. They promote a variety of free gift scams and free ringtone scams, following the CashEngines/PlatinumPartner blueprint of enlisting an army of affiliates that hope to cash in big.

can someone tell me more about that ?

Superaffiliate October 26, 2007 at 11:09 pm

Ludicris,, WTF you talking about. What CPA Network does not have email and zip submits? Azoogle, CPA Empire, Clickbooth ( all of which have been around a lot longer and have been promoting email and zip subs for years), Do some research before you start badmouthing a company. I have been with Millnic since Jan and they are barnone the coolest network in the biz. They dont spam me with emails everyday telling me to push this offer or that offer. They let me be and do what we do ( advertise ) and pay on time everytime. But great attempt at badmouthing them. There is always one of them.

TeamTutorials October 26, 2007 at 11:33 pm

They all have the offers, and if people are stupid enough to enter them I say we might as well take advantage of that.

Blackysky October 27, 2007 at 10:11 am

I don’t badmouthing the compagny !!! I report what McAfee said about the compagny … I was looking for another point of view !? thank you to being so rude in your answer…. maybe I didn’t put the quote clear enought !!!

Interesting, never know Facebook has such potential.

I’ve seen what my contact does and thought it’s just a hangout joint. :)

David October 26, 2007 at 9:05 pm

I’ve used Facebook to connect with tons of friends…organize events, etc…but never even thought of this aspect of it… :twisted:

lyricsreg October 27, 2007 at 12:45 am

Any site with that amount of traffic is a potential moneymaker. The thing is you need to figure out an evil scheme :)

One Buck Wiki October 26, 2007 at 6:46 pm

Wow, I never knew you could make so much money using Facebook.

Hus Nehpet October 26, 2007 at 7:02 pm

Yea, I read of stories where marketers were pulling in thousands of dollars a day on facebook.

warzone October 27, 2007 at 1:49 am

Thousands have slowly turned into millions thanks to microsofts little investment!

Jovan October 26, 2007 at 7:03 pm

good post have to look into it

Jovan October 26, 2007 at 7:04 pm

good

Chris Jacobson October 26, 2007 at 7:08 pm

Good stuff. I have been with Millnic Media for a few weeks now. I’ll have to look into some of their other campaigns.

Justin October 26, 2007 at 7:33 pm

Thnak you John, wow Facebook could be very useful and it is pretty fun too.

Domtan October 26, 2007 at 7:48 pm

Good speech. And Millnic Media looks impressive too.

Nick Sullivan October 26, 2007 at 8:23 pm

Nice presentations.

Jeremy Steele October 26, 2007 at 10:10 pm

“I buy souls”

I love it :twisted:

ascetic October 26, 2007 at 10:25 pm

haha nice info :idea:

jsanderz October 26, 2007 at 11:15 pm

I think I need to start using some of these social sites to boost my blog, facebook seems to me like the one to start with.
Regards.

David October 27, 2007 at 12:29 am

I’m trying to think of a way of using facebook to increase traffic to my blog…but not having any brainwaves as of yet…

Blog Contests October 26, 2007 at 11:16 pm

If only I knew how to code… will just wait for their ad network

P90X October 27, 2007 at 12:07 am

Yeah.. I wish I could create some cool app that would make a ton of money on facebook. Facebook is very popular. There is a girl who created a site that gives away myspace templates with adsense code imbedded into the coding and she is now a millionaire cause there are so many people using her templates.

warzone October 27, 2007 at 1:48 am

Thanks for the video. It has pretty much helped me understand how to market the facebook applications. Thanks a lot.

Dandruff October 27, 2007 at 4:17 am

Nice videos !!

MadDump October 27, 2007 at 6:04 am

I heard in the video he talks about toolbars installs? What ad network are these from? I’m looking for a non malicious one that pays, maybe something like the Google toolbar…

bwb October 27, 2007 at 6:57 am

ya I would be curious, anyone catch the toolbar url?

Rico October 27, 2007 at 7:42 am

Like my local car dealer says in his tv ads………….Facebook is HUUUGAA!!!
By the way John your blog is fantastic and an inspiration to me!!!!

bocah October 27, 2007 at 9:07 am

wow nice info chow. Why your page rank ???

Michael October 27, 2007 at 10:36 am

Nice videos. Boy I’m really missing out on Facebook… time to head over and check it out.

Felix October 27, 2007 at 4:24 pm

Ok time to join the facebook “blog” rush I guess. John, I think you should do a post analysing all serious social sites side by side and how they can be used to improve blogging and of course earnings. Having it all in one place comparatively would surely make a good read.

Michael Woo October 28, 2007 at 3:19 am

Here’s another group of people who became millionaires – online :P .. how i wish to be like them…

I think facebook applications may really become a nice way to make lots of money online. But, before you earn that amount of money you need a LOT of people using your facebook app!

Nikki October 28, 2007 at 10:11 pm

The video is out!! i missed it.. Can somebody tell what was in the video??

Making money with facebook is going to be the online marketers playing ground in 2008.

Thousand Dollar Project November 4, 2007 at 11:03 am

i love the stories behind sites like facebook
it seems to be we all love something free
and if you can monetise it in a way that doesnt effect the users enjoyment you will succeed

I didn’t know that! A million bucks a week? I wish I knew how to build an application I would make $10,000,000 a week. To make millions off small apps is totally mind boggling.
