Affiliate Business Bonus Challenge
This course was originally offered as a 7 day challenge to my newsletter list of real business owners and entrepreneurs (NOT bloggers!), but so many of my peeps said it helped them to get started with affiliate marketing that I thought I should share here for you to learn about too!

Includes all kinds of tips, ideas and resources that I have used to become a successful affiliate marketer.

Figuring Out What To Promote (LOTS of Examples) – Day 2
Today we are going to figure out what to promote! I have to say that I think this was the hardest thing for me to do.. I am NOT a huge consumer so I was like, “what am I going to try to sell people?!?!” And then I realized I am not trying to “sell” anything. I am just giving my opinions about things and people can choose to buy or not buy… no pressure on me at all… just helping other people know about cool things!
