As entrepreneurs, we find ourselves on the firing line day after day. This makes it hard for us to take our affiliate marketing success to the next level.





Affiliate marketing success, like any business or even life success, depends on how committed the person running the show is because everyday you are walking through one fire after another making it really easy to just just say, "To hell with it", and stagnate.


Newsflash, just in: Having the life that you love doesn't come easy.


To take your affiliate marketing success and your life to the next level, you have to pay the price of admission.

You are going to have to show up every day and take big, bold actions. You are going to have to make decisions about time and money and all of the other resources that you can garner which may mean sacrificing some of the things that you would really like to have right now.


You are going to have to be willing to go out there and fall flat on your face while testing your latest marketing strategy and not let it get to you.


There are going to be times when it seems like the whole world is out to get you.


My brother and I started our transmission shop 20 years ago. People seem to think that we have it all because we own our own business. They don't see what goes on behind the facade that we present.


We are the first ones in and the last ones to go home. We swallow more Rolaids than you could even start to count. We are the last ones in line to get paid.


Recently, while working on taking my affiliate marketing success to the next level, so that we could retire, we got hit hard financially.


Suddenly the money that we needed so that I could get additional traffic and mentoring in order to move forward was gone. We were in a hole so deep that it didn't seem like we would ever be able to climb out and bankruptcy was not out of the picture.


We begged and we pleaded with vendors to continue to work with us while we got everything straightened out. I dropped out of the mentoring program that I was in. I dropped out of one of the marketing companies that I was in so that I didn't have to pay the affiliate fee each month. I kept MOBE because I could afford the $19.95. I started selling things so that I could have money to buy traffic.


In short, we made a plan that called for taking serious action and experiencing extreme sacrifice in order to make things happen.

Entrepreneurship is a journey where you never reach your destination. You are always trying to get up the rung to the next level. If your affiliate marketing success means a lot to you, it will require perseverance, courage and mental toughness like you have never committed to before.

You have to set a course of action that scares you to death and then focus on the process and let the result be whatever it is.


As you can imagine, we didn't get the transmission business into trouble overnight and it required us to make some big mistakes to get in so deep but, you know what, our mistakes don't define who we are. We were doing the best that we could with what we had and what we believed in and it just didn't work anymore, things had changed.


Mistakes are going to be made on the way to your affiliate marketing success. The only way that they are going to define you is in how your pick yourself back up and start moving forward again. It took bold action to knock you down and it is going to take bolder action to get you moving again.


Whenever, you stand in the face of a challenge you become stronger. It's just like aluminum. If you send it through a fire, it becomes forged steel.


Want affiliate marketing success? Then pay the price. You don't build muscles at the gym without experiencing pain. You don't pay the same amount to fly first class as you do to fly coach. You won't pay the same price for outrageous affiliate marketing success as you will for minimal success.
