WHAT IT IS:
Affiliate marketing is earning a commission by recommending products or services you trust. You donβt create the product, handle payments, ship anything, or deal with customer support. Your job is simple: connect the right people to the right solution and get paid when a sale happens.
Think of it like being a digital referral partner β but scalable.
WHAT IT ISNβT:
- β Not a get-rich-quick scheme
- β Not posting random links and hoping for luck
- β Not spamming friends, family, or strangers
- β Not passive income on day one
HOW MONEY IS ACTUALLY MADE:
You build attention (content, traffic, audience) β provide value and trust β recommend a proven offer β earn commissions when people buy.
THE REALITY:
Affiliate marketing works when treated like a real business, not a side hustle lottery ticket.
Skills first. Systems second. Income follows.
Clarity beats hype. Execution beats everything. π‘π
