Being Just An Affiliate Is Small Thinking...

I don't know whether this is an affiliate based forum...but surely the quicker you start to see being a product owner is where it is at...asthat's where you can really leverage your success to great heights.

Gain affiliates, tell them exactly what to do and piggy back off their efforts (whilst rewarding them of course).

At least that's what it seems to me...time is something you can't get a refund for, and who wants to waste time ''in the grand scheme of things' of writing articles, submitting, when you can be developing top class products and learning how to convert.

It's just starting to dawn on me...

    How about starting (or thinking) small..and progressing to become bigger?

    Isn't it all about reinvesting and expansion - nothing wrong with being an affiliate, as long as they make a good amount.

    How would you gain good credibility if you didn't start off as a good affiliate first? Once you make a good amount, moving on becoming a vendor would be much easier.

      Yep but at the end of the day, why be an affilite making $10,000 a month when you can the product owner doing

      (a) promoting your own product (100% of the profits more or less)...so $15,000-$20,000 (depending on the % payout for affiliates) a month straight away

      (b) having an affiliate army promoting you

      And as for credibility of being an affiliate...maybe that only applies in the make money niche...but if you're someone with no reputation but you have an offer that converts...then people won't care...coz that's what affiliate's want...offers that more or less do all the work for them and make them money
