You do NOT need to hire an affiliate manager to run your affiliate program. That is a myth! Now, don't get me wrong. There will be a day when it makes sense to hire someone. I mean…that's exactly what people hire us to do…and they pay us a LOT of money. BUT to start with, you need to do this yourself. You can get MOST of the results with none of the expenditures. Today, I share why you don't need an affiliate manager and how to run your own program (and WHY you should!).

There is a killer myth that says that most of your sales will come from only a few affiliates. This myth is so pervasive that I have literally heard one of the top names. Someone you all know. One of the top names in the internet marketing space claim this as a statement of FACT from stage. In fact, the exact quote they used is this: "90% of your sales will come from your top 3 to 5 affiliates." Let me be brutally clear here: This is nothing more than a cop out. An excuse to not work with smaller affiliates. An excuse to go out and get your 3 or 4 best buddies and a few other people and call it a day. Today, I share why this myth is flat out WRONG and how to develop an ARMY of loyal, dedicated affiliates of all sizes.

There's a myth that says that having an affiliate program is only for the cool kids with the right connections. Or to get affiliates, you have to burn your list promoting everyone else's stuff all year just to get your own affiliates. WRONG! When I started my first affiliate program, I knew absolutely NO ONE. In fact, no one on our team did. We weren't the cool kids. We didn't have dads who knew the right people. We started with nothing and in 2 years built a $12.6M affiliate program. In today's episode, I'll bust these myths and show you how you can find the right affiliates...even if you don't know anyone in your niche!

I was reflecting on our biggest affiliate marketing successes right before I recorded this and it all came down to one thing: A PLAN! I recorded this at a gas station somewhere in the middle of Kentucky on my way to one of the most special places on earth...Blackberry Farm. It's the site of the top affiliates getaway with Michael Hyatt, Jeff Walker, and Pat Flynn...and me. To get there, I had to beat out some legends like Ryan Levesque, Ray Edwards, Stu McLaren, Kevin Harrington, and more. How did we do it? I share how in this episode.

I know something about you. Yes, you. By the very nature of you listening to this podcast, I know that you aren't like most people. You're not like the sheep...the masses...the cubicle dwellers of the world. You are weird...and that is a good thing. This is my online business manifesto.

If you think you're short on time and can't make a difference with your business, you need to hear this short message today. It's inspired by an email I received from Colter Reed and it has a powerful truth in it. Here's the email from Colter: Good afternoon, Matt! Just wanted to drop you a quick note… I'm a little dizzy. I'm currently #13 on the leaderboard! I'm sure it won't last; I'm just stoked that I made an appearance in the top 15. Here's the crazy part: due to bad planning on my part, I was completely unprepared for the launch, including the fact that I'm super busy right now. But I still wanted to let my tribe know about F2F. I sent one email about the questionnaire the day it went live, and a second email at lunch today (guess when I wrote the email) about the webinars and cart open. Two emails. Don't let anyone tell you they don't have time to make a difference.
