Jared’s Digital Agency Late Night Toast

Here’s a toast to all of us here burning the midnight oil, focused, and executing.

This is the weekend. And for me, honestly, it’s one of the hardest times to get through — because of trauma, distraction, doubt… all the things that creep in and set us up to fail.

But Wealthy Affiliate — the people, the tools, the structure, the mindset — has been here 24/7 for almost 11 years of my life.

And that, to me, is absolutely amazing.

I can’t always explain why I’ve been so inconsistent.

I can’t always follow the step-by-step training.

I’ve never been one for perfect checklists.

But what I’ve seen is that some people do follow every rule. Every habit. Every best practice.

And they’re winning.

Without going too deep into it — I just want to say this:

I’m grateful for the people here.

I’m grateful for those setting the example.

And I’m grateful this platform exists.

I want to help people in life. That’s my job if I have one.

I’ve tried a lot of things. I’m not an accountant. I’m not an employee anymore.

So cheers:

• 🥂 To the focused
• 🥂 To the Ambassadors
• 🥂 To the ones still here
• 🥂 To the midnight builders
• 🥂 To the ones who fell off and came back
• 🥂 To the ones who still believe tomorrow can look different

My name is Jared. I’m the proud owner of Jared’s Digital Agency.

I’m beyond grateful to be a Wealthy Affiliate member.

And I’m even more grateful that you’re reading this.

Hope you’re thinking good thoughts. I am too.

Now, a little bit of tech, strategy, and why I’m really here.

Hopefully… see you in Vegas.

🚀 Wealthy Affiliate Profile Audit: 11 Years In, Here’s Where I’m At

By JaredDigital | June 2025

“The only thing I’ve been consistent at is being inconsistent — and I’ve still made it work.”

💭 What I’ve Done Over 11 Years

Let’s be honest. I didn’t stick to a single strategy. I explored everything.

Over this decade:

• I built websites for myself and others
• I learned graphic design, SEO, funnels, automation, and AI
• I turned my WA hosting and training into a full-service digital agency

Affiliate Marketing? That part I let slide — but everything else exploded into real businesses.

⚠️ What I Let Slide

• I never chased the Ambassador points game
• I ignored the power of WA blogs for way too long
• I skipped consistent WA training uploads (even though I had stuff worth sharing)
• I didn’t treat WA as a content platform — I treated it as a toolbox

💸 My Original Money Goals (Set Back in 2016)

• $15,000/month to feel “comfortable”
• $25,000/month to live my ideal lifestyle
• 30 hours/week investment to get there

Funny thing: Those goals aren’t even big in the grand scheme of what’s possible today.

With AI tools, affiliate leverage, and digital product funnels?

These numbers are actually small compared to what I now know is scalable.

🧠 So Here’s What I’m Actually Working Toward Now

🛠

New Goals (as of June 2025):

• ✅ Hit my first $1,000 in affiliate commissions from WA + Divi + Syllaby
• ✅ Launch & promote 3 core funnels: Prompt Daddy, Mattress Code, Let’s Order In
• ✅ Post 1 blog/week and turn all content into WA posts, podcast episodes, and YouTube clips
• ✅ Get featured in “Popular Today” at least once a week
• ✅ Build a WA-friendly $5–$50 product ladder and document the whole process inside my blog

🔁 What I’m Doing Differently

✅ Posting weekly updates on my funnels and projects

✅ Turning Notion builds into tutorials, guides, and downloads

✅ Building in public and documenting the real work

✅ Commenting daily on other WA blogs to engage with the community

✅ Monetizing with affiliate tools that I actually use (no fluff)

💼 Projects I’m Currently Building

• Jared’s Digital Agency – Funnel-driven execution + client work
• Prompt Daddy – AI prompt vault + “Hustle or Hype” reviews
• The Mattress Code – From sales floor to digital funnel
• Real Hat Weekly - Medicine Hat based Local Community Affiliate Funnel
• Let’s Order In – A hyperlocal food/delivery/digital offer platform
• Martin’s Snack Attack – Premium pet treats with national shipping

Each of these will feed back into WA content, training, and case studies. I’m not hiding the process — I’m documenting the whole thing.

📣 Final Thought: Wealthy Affiliate = My Launchpad, Not My Limit

I didn’t “make it” through affiliate marketing.

I built a business using the skills I learned here — and now I’m back, showing others how to do the same.

This blog is my public reset button.

If you’re sitting on goals, skills, or ideas — this is your sign to hit publish and build out loud.

Let’s go.
