A Note From the Author

From Anthony Lawrence

I’m not writing this as some internet millionaire with a magic formula.

I’m writing it as someone who understands what it feels like to start learning something new when the technology, terminology and hype can make everything seem harder than it needs to be.

If you’re willing to learn, test, make mistakes and keep going, you don’t have to know everything today.

One idea runs through the entire book:

Person → Problem → Helpful Information → Solution → Recommendation

Start with the person. Understand the problem. Be useful. Then make an honest recommendation when it makes sense.

Ready to Understand How Affiliate Marketing Really Works?

Stop trying to piece affiliate marketing together from random videos, posts and sales pitches. Start with a clear understanding of how the pieces actually fit together.
