here's the facts guys. in sales 10% of the people make 90% of the money and in blogging and affiliate marketing it's even less then that maybe 3-5%.
your goal is to get in that 3-5% but now by doing what they are doing because they have those markets sewn up. create a new market or look for your own local affiliate offer.
Like I always say, think outside the box and get your own niche.
I was reading about this kid who's a man now started selling fucking planes at 16 years old. He would just go up or email some people selling a plane and say, ok you want $35,000 if I sell for $38,000 will you pay me the $3,000 extra and yes they fucken did it and at 16 on the interenet with guerilla marketing. he was banking while still in school and now he owns one of the largest plane brokering companies in the US at 25 years old. multi-millionaire as a plane affiliate biatches.
you see this fuck didn't go after ringtones or dating sites, fucking planes man! think big and as an affiliate you can create so many of your own offers it's sick.
