I have only been doing affiliate marketing now for just 2 years, but I am certainly impressed with it's ease of use, and high commission payouts. I started quite a few years ago in Multi Level Marketing (MLM), but realized that I didn't like that system so much, because I had to continue using the products of the company on a regular basis. When I discovered affiliate Marketing, I realized that it's a system that works better for me. 2 tiers is generally the average for an affiliate marketing program, and affiliate programs don't even require you to have to purchase the product.

One of the key advantages I also saw with affiliate marketing programs, is that when you've sold a lot of the products and sales start to dwindle, you can just move onto another complimentary product and sell it to the same customers. With the MLM programs I was in, they had rules against marketing other companies products to your downline in their program. Affiliate marketing to me, seems overall, like a much better and easier system. You don't have to be too attached to any one program. You can join multiple affiliate programs for the same products even, and then review them all for your customers, allowing them to decide who's product to choose based on your recommendations.

Affiliate programs work for me, and I'm going to continue to look for the best affiliate programs out there, and earn my commissions. That's why I started this forum, and I really hope to be able to share a lot of my favorite affiliate programs with the community here in exchange for learning about some of the successful affiliate programs other affiliate marketers are using.

May we share, learn, and earn more commissions!
