Joe,
Thank you for the welcome. I appreciate the information. I am trying to get the affiliate boot camp started first, and then will go back and learn more about adding additional sites. With online classifieds I created the links last night and have generated 6 leads in less than 15 hours. I would not view it as my only venue to generate leads, but as an additional exposure. I am trying to do things step by step, but I am relatively new to affiliate marketing and although I have had a computer and social media for years I have never tried to earn an income online before. My accounting degree that I earned was from 2006 and it has been quite some time since I have updated my computer skills and trainings. Merry Christmas. Thank you again for the greeting and the thoughts.

That's great news Angela.
It's something encouraging to hear there is leads generated from the free ads. Hopefully the leads would convert. I had tried the channel long time ago and I was not trying to discourage you.
Keep us posted on that.

Joe:)
