Affiliate marketing is good for beginners, it'll sharpen your entrepreneurial skills, focus your mindset, and most importantly, allow you to get some start-up cash for bigger business endeavors.

However, IMO: once you get skilled, and you have a good chunk of start-up capital, go and create a business of your own, focused on your own products and services.

(also: Please don't fall into the newbie trap of joining an MLM scam, they are all worthless from what I've seen, just do your own affiliate marketing on your own sites, pocket the profits, and make a good business, and if you haven't already, read the millionaire fastlane book and remember CENTS)

Yeah that's what i was thinking, it would be great to sharpen my skills and give me the confidence to pursue my own business ideas after.

I have finished reading the fastlane book it was amazing, definitely not falling for the MLM scam my friend said it was also a bad idea
thanks for the feedback,

Hi Vonrey, welcome to the forum! I fully agree with Hope.

Affiliate marketing can be the stepping stones to your success in entrepreneurship :) Marketing is after all, one of the, if not the most crucial part of business.

You definitely don't want to be one of those misguided MLMers either :D They have good intentions but then again, shit happens!

Like it has been rightly stated above, you never can get it wrong with affiliate marketing. I mean it is easy to get started with, all you need is get a good model that work for you and repeat all over again.

Note: Don't get excited with so many information that abound, just sieve through and pick one. Sit tight with it and get shit done

No problem Vonrey! That's good that you have a potential business partner. One thing I've learnt so far in my start up is that people make the biggest impact.

Make sure that your potential business partner is way smarter then you ;)!
