Love this roundup, Andre! The pace of change in affiliate marketing never slows down, and you’ve nailed exactly why a growth mindset isn’t optional—it’s survival. I’m constantly testing out new AI tools for writing and keyword research (shoutout to ChatGPT for helping me juggle three blogs at once). Analytics are definitely my compass, but I’ll admit I still have to remind myself not to get too lost in the data rabbit hole.

Video is on my “next up” list. I know it’s huge, but carving out the time to get on camera—now that’s a growth edge! Out of curiosity, have you found any lesser-known tools or skills that surprised you with their impact? And do you have a favorite for social scheduling, or are you still hopping between platforms?

Thanks for keeping the conversation moving forward. This series is pure rocket fuel for anyone looking to level up.

Thank you Sonia appreciate your input is valuable to all.
Agree our growth mindset in needed even more these days with what we do. With the introduction of AI, it has become a definite game changer along with what WA has given us to make the thinking process easier like we find with the content research we have here.
Still at this stage between platforms, but working on some ideas also with Chat (still at it's early stage) to shake things around to improve all this includes getting more involved with Canva as well as a few other AI platforms like Perplexity, and Co-pilot just to see the comparisions between each other and then get the most value fromm them all.
I have enjoyed this post series and at the moment have 6 to go which are all now scheduled one in a few day the rest in July.
Wishing you a wonderful day and week ahead.

Thanks for the thoughtful reply, Andre! You’re right—WA’s built-in tools have definitely taken a lot of the overwhelm out of content research (my “idea bank” has never been this full). I’m curious how your experiments with Canva and the new AI platforms will play out—each one seems to bring its own quirks and surprises.

Congrats on having your next posts already lined up! I’ll be watching for those. If you discover any hidden gems or time-saving hacks as you test out these platforms, you know I’m all ears.

Have a fantastic week too—may your ideas flow as fast as your coffee!

Sonia 😉

Thank Sonia yea this series of 20 have been scheduled since the first one came out so that took a load off to remember to post them all I do now is once the next one is out then I add that link to the original post that talks about the series so that anyone seeing that will have all the links to each one there to check out if they wish.

Yep with Canva I like to check out the images both AI and Canva can produce and anything that I like from AI I will download it to Canva and work on improving or adjusting it more that way. Work to do but fun as well as i am also learning things along the way so a win-win for me for that.

Andre :)

That’s such a smart system, Andre—love how you’re making it easy for everyone to follow the whole series. Totally agree, mixing AI images with Canva tweaks is a great way to get the best of both worlds. Always something new to learn!

Sonia

Thank you Sonia
Using canva plus various AI you get the best of both worlds and possibilities and learning never stops

Hi Andre!

Thanks for sharing!

I'd have to say that ChatGPT and WA have been my biggest tools as of late to grow in the AM world. With all the additions to the WA platform, continuous learning is easier.

Happy Saturday!

Thanks Howard and yes ChatGPT together with WA is a great combination to use and have. We are so fortunate to have what we have here. To think the benefits we get here as members never stops and gets better along the way.

Enjoy your weekend as well

Andre

Thanks, Andrej.

I got about 9 1/2 hours of sleep last night. :)

JD

Wow that’s about 3-4 hours more I normally ge
Probably another hour or so before I get to sleep
Enjoy your day

1

Yeah. I had to go weed-eat the church yesterday, and that took 2- 3 hours. I was beat when I got home, crashed on the couch a bit, cleaned up, worked on my writing projects, fixed supper, which I told my folks I wasn't going to cook anything, I had to stand over for a long time. Then every night I have to put medicine in my Mom's eye, so I don't get in bed until after she goes to bed. She went to bed at 8 pm. I made it to bed by 9 pm and woke up about 6:30 am this morning. :) Longer than I normally get, also.

JD

But at least you did all the right things for your parents so be proud of that.
You deserve that added sleep so well done.

Andre

Very valuable post and like others ai has changed the landscape a lot,one you learn a basic understanding of what it can do,then the more you will want to learn deeper.

1

Thanks Dave yes Ai has been a game changer for most all we need to do is learn how to give it better prompts and let it know how it should be given. The good thing here is we also have many great ideas from others to help us further along with our own AI assistant.

That is why the need for this series not just for Ai but to help with the mindset in many ways to help us further I have I believe another 6 to go for this over the next month

They are very informative keep them coming

Thanks I will for now and might think of other areas that may hel
Enjoy your weekend

AI - especially ChatGPT and Copilot have totally changed everything!

I still have a lot to learn about data analysis, but it'll have to wait because I already have a lot of other things I want to learn first. I have been learning Canva and still need to learn a lot on there and Pinterest is next on my list.

2

Thank you Isabella I am getting more involved with learning on canva have you tried peeper? That is also great
Wishing you well on all fronts

2

My ChatGPT is my Canva tutor. No, I haven't even heard of peeper. Thank you. There is so much to learn, but I love it!

Sorry bad typo meant perplexity not peeper

1

Oh, thanks. I have heard of perplexity, but have never used it. Will look into it. Many thanks.

You are welcome Isabella, seriously don't understand how I got peeper as I remember typing perplexity; somehow the autocorrect stepped in and I didn't notice until you mentioned it. But give Perplexity a go it is also a search engine as well and will give links to content just like Google's AI overviews does except they did it before Google brought that in.

1

Thanks a lot, Andre. I will give it a go and let you know how I get on.

Yes autocorrect has a mind of its own.

Thank you look forward your views on perplexity typed that slower just to make sure
😁🤪
