Re: Is This The End of Affiliate Marketing?

Re your question "But does that mean we have to tell everyone when an affiliate link is an affiliate link?"

... you just answered it when you dropped that affiliate link to Armand Morin and I don't see a disclosure anywhere :)

Notwithstanding the fact that you didn't disclose the link, this opens another can of worms since that's clearly an affiliate link but maybe it's not yours?

I'm no lawyer but I think all the FTC is trying to do is make us more transparent and I think it's a good think and will make affiliate marketing even stronger, as a powerful way to increase sales when done right.

Cool - a new road for affiliates to venture down and experiment to see if it brings in sales for advertisers w/ affiliate programs.

Hey Gary what's the best process you know to help identify your passion? I've started so many things and am now spread quite thin.

Good news is they make money. Bad news is there's too many of the damn opportunities.

So I'm not sure how to pick the right venture, but I know I NEED to in order to get into mega-hustle mode.

Please advise.

Re: Social Media Expert? I call B.S.!

If you go and interview people who are successful in a certain area, what can happen is that some people will then start calling *you* the expert. It just happens but I'm not sure why. I think it's "credibility by association" - like when you put up pictures of yourself with some celeb. or whatever.

I think your point about "giving back to the new media community" is good - don't lose that.
