Well I dont think its all as simple as that.

But the general theory that you need a TON of traffic to be able a good amount of sales for yourself is true. which is all it comes down to

And yes your content has to reach millions+ consistently to get 10 signups a day. because the smaller sites with higher ctr rates dont have as much traffic and you need multiple paths because if you used the same paths, the ctr rate would drop alot (you would run that well dry in a sense). the more avenues, most likely the longer you'll get sales for. but with the more avenues, the worse ratio and ctr because you'd start having to use sites with a lower ctr that aren't quite as targeted

basically if you want to use a few paths and get a handful of sales a day, you could do it yourself and keep ctr rate real low. but to reach the next level (and actually come out profiting to a point where you would call the program a success 10+ sales a day), you need to drive impressions up to millions+

I think the gap between small and medium is pretty big because you can always goto a few sources to get a few sales, but given the lack of obvious places to promote, you really need to know what youre doing to find the other 5-10 sales/day (thats when you start seeing ctr rate get worse)

same goes for ratio. yeah its possible to produce sales on a good ratio and low traffic but once you get alot of traffic, you'll never keep that up, once you reach a successful level, the more saturated your content is and your ratios end up being much much worse but it doesn't matter because in the end, you see more sales.
