Adwords to Affiliates

Do any of you buy adwords to sell your affiliates products, if so do you make a good return and what strategies do you use, if your willing to share.

I know someone that did and he made a huge profit.

I did and i made nothing.

I think that this is a technique used by the affiliate bigshots who earn lots of money doing affiliate marketing. Personally, I have never tried it because there is no guarantee that the money you use in adwords will surely come back.

You'd probably have to have a pretty big starting budget to pull that off, it sounds very very risky to me - but I guess you have to take risks to get the benefits.

I tried and it looks great...i will try it again...also i will try it also in yahoo for yahoo publishers.

How much did you have to spend on ads to start making any money with this. My thoughts on this would be that it could work if you are considering entering some very niche markets with little or no competition.
