Hello guys,
Its been a while. Perhaps 2 years since i posted here.
Last 3 years for me was life changing.
I tried everything i could. From Fiverr to Freelancing to building a tech startup to ecommerce.
I got sales here and there, but i could not have a financial breakthrough.
Then i found a mentor who thought me affiliate marketing. Things started moving after that.
I had my first 2 figures a day. And recently I have gone all the way upto managing 4 figures (of profits a day) but stable 3 figures a day is the norm.
This is paid media buying in display, native, social media and search traffic sources promoting offers from affiliate networks such as insurance, games and what not. I think I can finally call myself an expert, as I am getting really comfortable with my skillset. Of course, I am still scaling and trying to make it big.
Anyway, then i saw this video by MJ DeMarco
I know its true, there is a large lack of commandment of control in the affiliate marketing space.
But the catch is, i know people who are doing 6-8 figures of yearly income, with 100 person companies (We are just 6 now) and I havent met a single company who does not partner with other companies in some way. Joint ventures, key clients and partnerships are the norm in every company I know. We recently started working on creating a SaaS application to help marketers, and even that includes using services from APIs of several third party applications.
And there are always strategies you can use to minimize risks. In affiliate marketing we can stack offers so that when one goes down we have another one. We can also diversify niches so that there is always something going on. I think most businesses will need to build strategy to overcome the lack of commandment of control.
I am sorta thinking about my future and how to build my company from where it is now, and I wanted to hear your thoughts on commandment of control in your own businesses.
Thanks
