The Affiliate Guy with Matt McWilliams: Marketing Tips, Affiliate Management, & More

I am a big fan of affiliate programs that offer a lifetime cookie. Heck, I did an entire video on the subject. In my opinion, it's only fair to reward affiliates in this way. But, could it be a problem for new affiliates? That's what David asked recently and in today's episode, I answer his question!

I got an email from Lisa Ingelse recently that really got me thinking: What am I so afraid of that is holding us back in my online business? What about YOU? Here's what her email said: "I'm new to blogging —— REALLY brand new. I'm having a difficult time feeling pulled in many directions with all the things I SHOULD be doing / growing + life and I freeze. But I am taking steps to gain focus and clarity and to step forward with action. I suppose I'm trying to find my authentic voice and feel vulnerable — like I have one shot at setting up who I am. I know writing "scared" can be a good thing, but then it also is a bad thing for the sales end. Does this make sense?" Yes it does, Lisa. Listen up to this episode for my response.
