367 Don't fall for this! Bad affiliate marketing tactics

I came across this video on YouTube about affiliate marketing and it sparked this spicy podcast where I am sharing with you my thoughts and what you should do for affiliate marketing instead.   The Content Entrepreneur Research is out: Books are among the top 3 most profitable and most utilized tactics to monetize content. Having a book can help you land the speaking gig of your dreams,  spark a new funnel of prospective clients,  or take what you already have and create a digital product. But honestly, the book process can be daunting. At a conference last year I came across Lulu. I had no idea who they were and struck up a conversation with one of their team members. They had examples of how content creators had taken their expertise and created books, journals, planners and more. I instantly knew we had to turn our Simple Pin Planner into a physical copy. Whether you already have content prepared or you’re starting from scratch, either way, getting your expertise into a printed book with Lulu has never been easier and more profitable. Their ecommerce plugins make it easy for you to publish your book and sell it directly to your fans from your own site, while they handle all of the printing and shipping on the back end. We use the Shopify integration and it’s slick! You keep 100% creative control, 100% of your customer data, and 100% of your profits.

365 Pinterest for Dummies

Pinterest for Dummies. The one thing I hear from people is that they don’t “get” Pinterest. It doesn’t make sense to them so they don’t want to use it for their marketing. I totally get that. I said that about LinkedIn for years. Then one day I had someone explain it to me in a way that clicked, and I began my journey. My hope is that I can explain Pinterest in a way that makes it “click” for you too. We have our start series that I mention in the podcast - https://www.simplepinmedia.com/start/ —-------See full show notes for all episodes at Simple Pin Media and click on articles.Get our weekly Pinterest Made Simple newsletter delivered to your inbox every Wednesday by subscribing here.Looking to hire the best Pinterest marketing team?
