First Ever Affiliate Commissions

[Patrysha]

Yes, I have owned a home based business of one sort or another for over 12 years now. Yes, I've had affiliate links and recommended things before. But none of it worked, until today.

Only then I tweeted about the first one and someone asked me about it and they checked out the link too and I made another one...while I was in the middle of a consultation with a client...tee hee almost double billing.

I could get used to this...

Congrats Patrysha!

Nothing like that first affiliate commission ;)

Way to go! Here's to many more.

Well at least it now feels like I've got confirmation that I am moving in the right direction. For so long the lack of results was confusing me. We'll see soon enough if this turns into a daily thing :-) I could live with that but I can't see stopping what I'm already doing to put more effort into it, lol.

I do affiliate marketing full time (since the late 90's even) so if you ever want to brainstorming methods & ideas just let me know ;)

[Patrysha]

Well for right now I just want to concentrate on getting Community Connected Commerce to the next level. I did one test market over the summer and the results were amazing. So I really want to get it seeded into at least 10 communities or shopping malls before the end of Holiday Shopping Season.

I've got the tools and I have a team in place to make it happen, I just need places to happen...lol

Anyway, all that is completely unrelated to affiliate marketing except for that it's all loosely based on affiliate marketing...surveys, list building, relationship building, incentives to join the list, customer management...all that jazz is built in with publicity and other traditional advertising worked in.

It is a good feeling, knowing your hard work can pay off and that affiliate marketing does work. Keep at it!

That's awesome! You're on your way. :)

I still remember my first "big" commission which was a little over $800. I was so pumped up for the entire week - it really is an awesome feeling...

Just like your first kiss :-)
