Porterfield: I have never used ConvertKit. So why am I promoting ConvertKit if I've never used them? Well, I used a different tool when I first started out that I wouldn't necessarily recommend for people that are just starting out and the tools have changed over the years dramatically. If I were starting from scratch and wanted to use a tool that I could grow into over the years, I'd absolutely choose ConvertKit. This is something we haven't always done but it's what we're striving for. You don't really know what you're striving for until you actually do it.

Would you believe me if I told you that I make over one million dollars in affiliate revenue each year?

It’s true – and believe me, I’m not telling you this to brag. I’m telling you this because you, too, can make substantial income through affiliate marketing.

Affiliate marketing is when content creators earn a commission by promoting a product or service from another company using an affiliate link. When someone clicks on your affiliate link and makes a purchase, you’ll receive a payout.

So if you’ve ever heard the phrase “make money while you sleep,” this is it, my friend. It’s one of the best ways out there to make passive income – but like anything in business, you’ve got to go into it with a plan.

Over the years, I’ve fine tuned my affiliate marketing strategy and I’m so excited to break it all down for you in this episode.

You’ll hear:

How to identify the best brands for you to partner with
What to say in your pitch email to potential affiliate partners
Why relationships are key when it comes to affiliate marketing
The best places to promote your affiliate links
A breakdown of all the spreadsheets I use to stay organized
