GatherSuccess Challenges
It has been quite a while since the last time I post articles for one of the GatherSuccess challenges organized by Alvin Phang. Few weeks ago till now, I have been participating GatherSuccess challenges. These challenges are not as easy as I thought. Let’s recap what challenges I have participated so far.
The first challenge was a blogging challenge. This is the easiest challenge I have did. Simply blogs daily on the blog for 4 days.
Second challenge was a charity challenge. Okay, this is a little harder than the first challenge. I did quite couples of things to get the donation for Red Cross. I tried to sell a product with an additional promotion. I did email marketing to promote and sell the product but nothing made. I get my working colleagues to help me. All colleagues except 2, each donated S$25. The rest did not even bother about it.
I was thinking to donate myself initially and so my PayPal account happened to have some money left. I have donated all what I have left in my PayPal account plus the S$50 from my colleagues. Total amount I have donated to Red Cross was US$45.16. After I sent the money to Red Cross, I feel so happy and good about it because I did a good deed. 
Third challenge was a affiliate challenge and this was hard. This affiliate challenge was about promoting and selling Alvin’s Atomic Blogging. I did the same email marketing I did for the first challenge. I posted articles about blogging and make money from blogging on my blog and even submitted to article directories. In the end, I did not make any sale at all. Maybe I did not manage to convert those visitors into buyers where this should be the case.
Fourth challenge was a retweet challenge. This was hard too. Not easy to get people to retweet the message you want it to be retweet. I only got 4 retweets for the message set by Alvin. I even give out free ebooks just to get people to retweet the message.
Fifth challenge was a promotion challenge. It was about promoting one of Alvin’s blog post. Using bit.ly to shorten the blog post url and use bit.ly to track number of unique hits to the blog post. I got 152 hits by the time I sent my result. I could not beat one of the participants, Dino. He is just too good.
Current challenge which is the sixth challenge is about interview challenge. So far, I have only interviewed 1 internet marketer. He is one of my internet marketing friend and he has been doing so well in internet marketing industry. He is one of the internet marketers who I learned from too. In the next blog post, I will update the interview that I have done with my internet marketing friend.
