So You Think Your Goal is Out Of Reach?

I did a post a few days back on what 30K per month would look like in affiliate earnings, and the feedback was positive, but I heard a lot of people thinking their own goals were out of reach. They also think time has passed their opportunity, but I'd like to take just a second to share a few of the real average earnings in our industry.

Before we get into some of the many stats found here I will tell you that over 90% of people starting a business online will fail, and they do that by not seeking adequate training, choosing a niche for the wrong reasons, and quitting before their content gains momentum. Regardless of the reason, every one of them says I quit losing money or time, and usually both.

That said, the 90% who fail versus the 10% who earn something drastically lowers the average income numbers. Top earners are banking over 7 figures in nearly every niche.

That said, here are a couple of copy-and-paste stats from the site linked above.

  • Affiliate marketers in the education and eLearning niche earn an average monthly income of $15,551.
  • Affiliate marketers in the travel niche earn an average monthly income of $13,847.
  • Affiliate marketers in the beauty and skincare niche earn an average monthly income of $12,475.
  • Affiliate marketers in the finance niche earn an average monthly income of $9,296.
  • Affiliate marketers in the technology niche earn an average monthly income of $7,418.
  • Affiliate marketers in the digital marketing niche earn an average monthly income of $7,217.
  • Affiliate marketers in the health & fitness niche earn an average monthly income of $7,194.

The full list and other extensive data on Authority Hacker will let you know that any passion has cash attached, and while some industries appear lower than others, it is largely due to saturation or basically more people attacking those niche markets.

If you want $30,000 a year as an affiliate marketer, the only thing holding you back is YOU!!!

I don't know if you followed the link but there are over a dozen industries listed where affiliates are winning.

Laziness and ignorance sometimes may hinder.

These can be cured through education and ethics.

Yes, our limitations come from Within.

I am shedding limitations again and get so stoked seeing these numbers.

Never out of reach! I own a step stool, a step ladder, a folding ladder, and there is a fire station down the street with a Tiller.😀

I used to be certified to run code in those firetrucks. Not for long, though,I found out in a drill that I was developing asthma.
