John Chow Market Leverage Affiliate Challenge

written by John Chow on July 21st, 2008

John Chow dot Com and Market Leverage is pleased to bring you another fun and exciting contest. This time we’re doing our version of the Top Affiliate Challenge. The challenge is pretty simple. Whoever makes the most money with Market Leverage in a month will win an iPod Touch and a $200 ML Amex Reward Card.

To enter the challenge, simply sign up for Market Leverage using the special link Market Leverage gave me. This will allow me to track who is making what. The challenge starts today and goes until the end of August. I’ll have a by-weekly “Leader Board” report so you can see where you’re at. This challenge is open to new Market Leverage publishers only. If you’re already a Market Leverage publisher, then you can’t enter. However, keep reading. I have something else for you.

Make $10 and Win a 2GB Market Leverage USB Pen

The first ten Market Leverage affiliates who enter the challenge and make $10 will win a nice 2GB USB pen. This looks like a pen but it’s really a USB flash drive. And all you need to do is be one of the first 10 people to generate $10 in affiliate commissions and the pen is yours! Sign up today and start affiliate marketing.

But Wait, There’s More! Win a Flip Mino!

If you’re already a Market Leverage affiliate (or don’t want to enter the challenge), you still have a chance to win a Flip Mino! The Flip Mino is the update to the Flip Ultra and I love it because it’s so small and it works with my Mac!

To enter for a chance to win a Flip Mino, all you have to do is reply to this post. Easy, right? I’ll give you one entry for simply replying. If you make a blog post about the challenge and send a trackback, I’ll credit you with five entries. Your post should link to Market Leverage and this is contest post. If the trackback doesn’t work, enter the URL to the post in the comments.

All the winners will be selected on August 31st. Good luck!

  1. Wow thats great Mr. Chow. I like that 2 Gig pen. I’ve heard of ML and affiliate marketing, but was never sure what it was / how it differs from stuff like Adsense. Still don’t know actually.
    Anyway, good contest.

    • Market Leverage and Never Blue Ads are probably the two best affiliate networks on the Internet. Never Blue might have the edge because of its (extremely) user-friendly layout. It’s very easy to search for offers there, and you can pick different options and parameters for your searches. Market Leverage, on the other hand, has the edge over Never Blue in terms of payouts. They pay you more than any other affiliate network around.

    I’ll reply for an entry to win a Flip! I’ve been wanting one, but have heard mixed reviews from Mac users.

    • I found a bug in the Mino for Mac. If you use the Mac and iMovie and use the import function a lot, the memory on the slowly shrinks until you have only a fraction left. Then you have to reformat it which means blowing out all the software that is installed that Flip doesn’t give you a restore disc for. Once you reformat it, it gives you a full 60 minutes again, but your software is nuked.

      Other than that, it’s a good little low quality recorder. It absolutely kills the competing Vado in voice and picture quality.

      • dcr

        I don’t use iMovie. What format is the Flip saving the videos in now? Is it still the same uncommon format it was using before? Or, have they switched to something more normal, like MPEG or QT?

        • It’s AVI but requires the installation of a CODEC that comes with the FLIP. Flip released it as a download for all Flip’s shortly after the release of the Mino. It’s on their support page now.

          • dcr

            Thanks. I’ll have to look into that. I use Adobe Premiere Pro, so I want to make sure the files would work with it. I don’t want to have to go through iMovie at all, as that would add an extra step to my workflow.

      • You don’t need to reformat. Just show the hidden folders. You’ll see a folder call “Trash.” Empty that.

        You’ll good to go again.

        • Didn’t need to show hidden folders. I just emptied main trash and it seemed to work, but kind of goofy considering none of my other camcorders needed this step. Not to mention, if you forget to do this, and you’re out on the road again with it, you can’t do this without a computer. The Flip will continue to show very low capacity, even though the Flip itself says there are no videos files on the device.

  3. Cool challenge John. Count me in for the flip.

  4. Wish I could join the contest, but I already joined Tyler Cruz’s. Still, I’m in for the Flip!

  5. That’s pretty sweet. Count me in!
    I need that flip.

  6. Too bad I already signed up under Zac Johnson ;)

  7. Another great Market Leverage contest, count me in for a Flip entry!

  8. Definitely in for the Flip! I really want one.

  9. Wow, very cool contest again, I applied to be a Market Leverage affiliate 1 week ago and I didn’t got a reply from the yet! What’s the problem? It takes a lot of time to get an answer ( approved or declined, whatever just an answer! )
    Anyway count me in the Flip Nino contest and I’ll blog about this too.
    By the way I am running my first blog contest, It’s located here:
    http://www.zakshow.com/2008/07/20/my-first-blog-contest-cash-and-entrecard-credits/

  10. Rats, I just started making some money with Market Leverage and I’d love to sin the iPod Touch and a $200 gift card, but I’m already a member. But count me in for the Flip camera, I’d take that!

  11. I am fixing to dominate this challenge, I’m going to drop a couple grand into my adwords account. Good Luck Everyone! Im playin for the exposure, mino would be nice too.

  12. I am in for the flip!!

  13. Getting a flip would be cool :)

  14. man everyone is jumping onto the market leverage craze.

  15. Please enter me for the contest. I’m already a member at Market leverage, but I did make a post on my blog: http://www.obzokee.com/uncategorized/win-an-ipod-touch-and-a-200-ml-amex-reward-card

  16. oh my!.. I really want that iFlip mino!..
    but sadly, I can’t post a new contest on my blog.. I am having some problem with my admin page right now..

  17. A flip would be wonderful!

  18. Tim

    I would love a Flip!

  19. I would love to win a flip. My trackback to follow.

  20. Look forward to claiming my Flip. Thanks! :cool:

  21. Yup, a flip would be wonderful..

  22. Yet another great contest by the Evil John Chow!
    I’ll take the Flip if I win!

  23. I`m in for the Flip Camera, never won any JC contests so far, just trying my luck :grin:

  24. Does this extra comment give me an additional entry ? :grin:

  25. A word to the wise: I noticed that John has that Carbon Copy Pro ad embedded in the post. I looked into that opportunity, and it seems real enticing. I think they charge something like $47 or $67 for you to submit an application (to be accepted into the opportunity). But that’s where the enticing nature of the offer ends. Apparently, the REAL cost to get access to the tools that they claim makes thousands of dollars on autopilot (much like the Reverse Funnel System) is like $7,000 to $10,000!! Again, you pay them a nominal fee just to apply, and then you still have to pay all that money upfront for what seems like a pyramid-like scheme. I went through their sales page, and I could not find any product that they’re selling.

  26. Great contest – I am in! Just signed up and looking forward to seeing what I can put together.

  27. Ugh. What about the people who are already Market Leverage affiliates!!

  28. Sweet deal I want a flip soooo bad.

  29. Market Leverage seems to be really pushing it these days. This little contest seems a lot similar to the one Tyler is running.

    I have entered it though and hope to be a top contestant.

  30. give me the flip john or my bunnies will be after you!!!!

    big jason

  31. A lot of these ML contests poping up latly. :)

  32. cool challenge. I signed up and I’ll be blogging about it as soon as my membership is approved. Hopefully before the contest ends!

  33. I want to win a Flip Mino!

  34. I’m already with Market Leverage. I want a flip mino though.

  35. The flip is a great camera and it wouldn’t hurt to have another one. I also have a Market Leverage contest going on John where im giving away an EEE PC and some other stuff. Check it out!

  36. Wow this is a great challenge, A question though
    How can a struggling/budding entrepreneur like me who has a blog with traffic of 50 people per day ever hope to compete and win against people who already have blog traffic of around 20,000 + a day?

  37. Awesome contest! I can’t wait to get started with this!

  38. I’ll comment and enter, then if I win, I promise that I will give it away!

  39. Has anyone been approved yet? How long does it generally take?

  40. Already signed up for market leverage but definitely down for the drawing :) .

  41. I want a Mino. The ultra which I won elsewhere seems to be a refurbished one. Need to replace it.

  42. pyjammez

    Count me in! I want a flip! :) My last video camera didn’t have a very rewarding life. I threw a rock off a cliff while rock climbing and it coincidentally landed on my bag and broke my phone and video camera. But this one I’d treat much better :)

  43. thank you john for such a useful info.you are my idol. :smile:

  44. G

    Oooh boy. Another contest I have no chance of winning -_-
