Here's a lesson on control for you.

I caught up with a long time friend this morning. He's been doing about $50k a month in sales by dropshipping clothing and advertising solely through Facebook. Very targeted ads focusing on college kids.

He was doing very well for himself for a few months, but all of a sudden things changed for him. CPC skyrocketed to the point where it makes no sense to keep advertising, sales dropped, and now he's freaking out because Facebook was his only source for new leads. Luckily he's a frugal guy so he squirreled away money for the inevitable rainy days.

Are you relying on only one source for your traffic? Diversify, my brother. Diversify.
