I was going to say basically the same thing. Getting lucky once doesn't guarantee consistent sales.. Check your source of the sale and repeat what worked.

There are a lot of other things that will make a difference like if your content that you are promoting gets overpromoted or on the other end if its too micro niche its hard to have consistent sales and have to work on multi niches or rebills, the source that the traffic is coming from could change depending if you promote with SEO or link/traffic trades, maybe someones stuffing cookies, etc..

I'm not saying any names, but some shady sponsors will credit an affiliate with one quick sale, usually with no referrer info, to keep that affiliate promoting their content and never meet the minimum... Doesn't happen too often, but it happens.
