No, thanks, I don't want to earn commissions while relaxing at the beach

Published: Tue, 06/27/17

Said no one, ever.

I'll start by saying this: my kids have zero interest in doing what I do. And that's OK.

Of the ones old enough to have reasonable thoughts on the subject, all plan to go into traditional careers. They respect what I do, with all my libertarian work, but it's not for them.

Even so, I want them to have a fallback of some kind, in case they should ever hit hard times. So when possible, I give them tips related to what I do online, and how it is that while we're at the beach, my phone notifies me that I've just earned enough in commissions to pay for every activity we do.

Adults want a fallback like this, too, of course. And of all the emails I've received, I would say by far the topic people are most interested in is affiliate marketing.

That's where you earn a commission if people order something through your link. One of the most popular (if not quite so lucrative) such programs is Amazon's. Virtually every blogger uses the Amazon affiliate program.

Why is it so popular?

As an affiliate you don't have to create a product, ship anything, deal with customer service, or any of that. You just deposit the checks.

Excellent.

Now you could learn affiliate marketing from me, it's true. I've learned some things by doing it for two or three years. It's my favorite thing in the world.

Mark Ling -- the guy who crushed me in that affiliate contest I've been telling you about -- has been doing it for about 18 years. He's been in niches like dog training, health, personal development, music learning, foreign language education, and more.

He's joining me live again this Thursday, and the whole session will be on affiliate marketing and the four steps to making it work.

He'll make you an offer at the end. You don't have to take it, obviously. He's a decent and trustworthy guy, though, which is why his reputation by all accounts is excellent.

So if you're curious about how you get those notifications while you're at the beach, set aside some time and join me:
