What Lit the Fire Under My Ass?

It was a few years back when I laid eyes on the Shoemoney check, although I can’t claim that as the moment I became obsessed with affiliate marketing. It wasn’t until my friends’ rating website started to pull in over $7,500 a month without paid traffic!

Okay, now you have my attention!

Frustrating Beginnings with Affiliate Marketing

Starting with simple ideas, I soon felt like I was missing some BIG affiliate marketing secret. Sure it took time to build organic rankings, but I was using Pay per Click for product testing. With the first site I sent over 1,000 clicks to one vendor, and sold NOTHING.

An Unlikely Mentor Finds and Apprentice

With bills to pay, I took a full time job and left my sites to play in Google’s sandbox. Uhh, back to florescent lights and a windowless cubicle! But this job would literally change my life, as I would meet an unlikely mentor that showed me how to make money online.

This guy had ZERO experience with internet marketing and had only been exposed to the affiliate game for 18 months. Yet he was making over $20,000 a month! How?

He had a mentor too!
