247cashfor.me lives!

Today I got a surprise: a $37 Paypal payment!
First I thought it was a mistake. I'm not selling stuff for $37 on eBay.
But then I realized that before entering eBay, on May 19, I bought an eBook about how to make money online. I payed $37 to someone, but the real seller was a woman called Lauryn Herbert.
I bought a domain name (247cashfor.me sucks, I know, but I thought I was being clever choosing 247 and cash and for me!).
I payed goddady a lot of money (didn't know about the coupons) and got a free page (nothing is free with godaddy: they insert ads at the top of your page)
See this: http://247CashFor.me/
Awful page, ads, old design, but it was working.
First I started an adword campaing to test it. I'm embarrased to admit I didn't sell a single book. Money lost. Ok, but it was my fault: all recomendations in the book are about free advertising.
I decided to forget this project and move on.
But I got a payment from someone who later sent me this mail
  • To whom it may concern,
    I just purchased this program using my paypal account
    xxxx@yyyy.com and did not know that paying with an e-check delays the process 3 to 5 days. I was advised by Lauryn to contact you and cancel my order I had made so I can re-order with a cc so there won't be any delays and I can start asap. My transaction number is 5P282566U5630242S. If you can help me I really appreciate it so much. Thank you, Kim C***m

I was happy: my first sale! And I honored the request, cancelled the transaction and waited with anxiety for my buyer's response. It never came. I was discouraged.

So I forgot about this site. Finito, Kaput, Bye! Until today: Cha Ching! Cash!

I will not draw any conclusions now. But maybe if I had followed the book's instructions I would have earned some bux...
