I got my first affiliate program on my website! I'm not even to the part of the training. I even figured out how to put there link or banners on my site. And it works! It was easy,

This is a company that I by from regularly. My niche is e-cigarette's or vaping. I went to there web page and went all the way to the bottom where you see how to contact them and there it was, like a little shining star "Affiliate Program". The rest is history.

I love residual! For thoughts of you that may not know what residual is, it a sale that you get a percentage of the monthly payment. Just like if you help someone join WA and they go "Premium". You get $23.50 every month they pay. For life as long as they pay there monthly.

Waaay back in the day before cellphones I used to sell pagers. For you younger generation they were a little black box ,a little smaller than your cellphone today. Well maybe a lot smaller. Have you seen some of the cellphones today? There huge! I think they call them "Phablet". I'm getting off track but the first time I ever seen one was in a "Wally World" parking lot. I looked at my wife and said" I think the cheese just slipped off his cracker" , my wife said "What do you mean". " Well look at him, He's got his tablet up to his ear, he thinks he's going to call someone" . Anyway, that's when I found out they have "Phablet's".

OK, back to pagers. They somewhere in between a big cellphone and a small cellphone, (Use your imagination) You dial there pager number you here a "beep" and you punch in your number that you want them to call you back on. And your pager (Or "beepers", that's what we used to call them, Well I called them "Annoying")

When I sold one I'd get what ever "Activation" payment up front, plus the cost of the pager. The activation was typically $20 and I'd get $1 every month that they paid there monthly fee. The monthly fee was $10 and up depending what type of pager you had. If you had one that could take a text massage there were $20 a month. And I would $2 every month.

Now it doesn't sound like much but after an year of selling them my check was well over $600! Now not for nothing, that was a nice pay check every month back in the 80's.

So you see residual is a very lucrative income.

Tip trick of the day!

I'm terrible at spelling so I use my smart phone pull someone up as if I were to text them and at the bottom of the keyboard you'll see a little microphone. Click it and say the word you cant spell and there you have it. You are now "The champion of the spelling bee"

Now I know you can just right click on the word but have must noticed that on here it isn't very good.
