Congratulations Mike!

I just wanted to make a quick post to congratulate Mike Greening on his success with affiliate marketing. Mike commented on my post “The power of Focus” to remind me to stay focussed and to point out that there will be losers in this game.

I agree with Mike’s comments 110%. He certainly hit the bullseye. One of the keys to be successful with affiliate marketing, especially when you’re paying for your traffic (PPC), is to realize the losers very quickly and to drop them. Also he states that he focussed on the winner he found which resulted in the profits from that site to jump dramatically within a few months.

I’m curious to know if this was just a seasonal item, but in either case it’s still an amazing success story that I love hearing about.

Mike also recommended Jeremy Palmer to add to my list of mentors. I agree with him on this as well. I read Jeremy’s Book “High Performance Affiliate Marketing” and fully recommend it.

One thing I liked the most about Jeremy’s eBook was not the eBook itself! Funny enough! Don’t get me wrong, it’s an excellent book. I used to lurk around on his forum and read a lot of his posts from his readers and saw that he was there to help them. He didn’t just write the book to make more money. He wrote it to help people get into affiliate marketing and spent a lot of time giving very valuable “inside information”.

For those interested my list of mentors include Jeremy Palmer, John Reese, Frank Kern, and Ed Dale.  To keep with the staying focussed theme, I also found 5 Bucks a Day By Dennis Becker a good read.
