Thank You!
I googled "become an affiliate" after I watched a brief video of somebody talking about the perks on Facebook. I signed up with Amazon but now am a little stuck.
I really just need to be making extra money but at the time, working outside of home isn't much of an option full time. This is something I can at least be home with my kids with, not putting in an arm and a leg for the cost of daycare

I can relate. I've worked from home for years, but I just helped take care of my newborn niece for about a year and a half while my sister got the daycare thing figured out. It can be a little tricky when they start screaming for attention, but it's totally doable :)

The first certification course will be a good introduction to get you started. From there, you can decide if you want to go premium to get the rest of the training. You should have gotten a notice that you can do your first month for $20. I'd recommend doing your first free week and then at least trying a month at premium. That will give you a good enough taste for whether or not you'll get what you need here. I honestly think you will, but each person's experience is different.
