Full time Affiliate Marketers - What's your daily routine?

2 replies
I'm just wandering what the day in the life of an Affiliate Marketer is. At the moment I'm working full time, and I do this when I've got free time. I want to start taking it more seriously and start treating it as a business rather than a hobby.

What's your daily routine? (no stalker)

    Sometimes it is a 15 hour day for me, or even an 100 hour week if we have a big launch....

    A typical day for me would be to:
    • wake-up at 8-9am.
    • Check my emails, reply to anything quick, and tag important emails for later on and actually start work at around 10am
    • My day can consist of sending emails 1by1 to partners, skype chatting, boring admin type work, planning, overall business strategy, research... or often writing salespages, quality content, emails for our newsletters, or any element of the affiliate side of the business - managing/helping affiliates/JV, writing stuff for them, articles
    • But mostly I'd say for 2-5 hours every day, I am writing unique content, often salespages / mini sales pages or emails. This is my bread and butter, and it can seem tedious, but when you look back its like, whoa, we now have this 100 page site, that is getting __ traffic a day, making __ sales... the writing was worth it... and I know that if I dont do any unique writing for a week or more then I can tell... sites slow down, no new products to launch, no new newsletters driving people back to the site...
    • So thats the "day over"... but if I don't go out in the evening I end up working too... but not solidly... much more casually..
    • So, doing things like, forums, chatting, research, reading, analysing stats, wondering why things worked or didn't and what to do next time
    Or other days, I'll just go out for the whole day, in the middle of the week, go sight-seeing, go to the beach, go surfing... while other people are at work.. just to balance out my long days and mis-matched schedule of having to work 100 hour weeks sometimes.


    All in all I love the lifestyle and love what I do - I love my day whether it is spent at the beach, or in-front of my computer... and my beach days don't make me want to quit or sell out... and I think if you can feel like this then IM and the lifestyle is for you too
