Hi, I'm Linda, a serial entrepreneur, and I'm excited to share a major milestone with you! After a year of hesitation, a recent event pushed me to take the leap and sign up for Premium Wealthify. I've committed myself to the training, and I can't wait to tell you about it. It's always been a dream of mine to launch a blog and turn my passion for Vintage, Retro, and Antique Furniture and Accessories into a source of passive income.

I must confess, though – my blog has been quietly sitting on the sidelines for three years, and during that time, I've managed just a handful of posts. Alongside my husband, we proudly helm , a unique vintage furniture shop located in Greater London, UK. Our shop has gained recognition for offering exceptionally distinctive, high-quality pieces, whether they're restored or upcycled Mid Century, Vintage, or Antique Furniture and Accessories. We've been at the helm of this business for three years, following a successful 20-year run operating a Pram and Baby Accessories Shop alongside an online store.

So why do I want to do affiliate marketing?

In addition to running our physical and online vintage furniture shop, I'm gearing up to dive into the world of affiliate marketing. Here's why I'm so eager to start and why you should be excited too:

1. **Diversified Income Stream**: I can see the potential for affiliate marketing to provide an extra income source, making it possible for us to deepen our love for vintage furniture even further.

2. **Passive Income Potential**: The idea of earning while I sleep is simply intriguing. With affiliate marketing, there's an opportunity to generate passive income, allowing me to continue supporting our passion, even during downtime.

3. **Expanded Customer Base**: Through strategic affiliations, we can reach out to a wider audience of vintage furniture enthusiasts. This means more people discovering and cherishing our unique pieces.

4. **Enhanced Brand Visibility**: Partnering with trusted affiliates will help RetroNovia gain more recognition and credibility within the vintage furniture community, establishing us as a trusted resource.

5. **Monetising Blog Content**: The blog I'm putting together won't just be about knowledge-sharing. It's also going to feature handpicked vintage gems, and when you shop through our recommendations, you'll be supporting our journey.

6. **Retirement Savings**: Affiliate marketing isn't just about now; it's an investment in our future. It's a retirement plan that complements our passion and ensures financial security down the road.

7. **Geographic Freedom**: As a business owner who loves to explore, I'm excited about the prospect of managing our business from virtually anywhere, even while traveling and discovering new vintage treasures.

8. **Low Overhead Costs**: Our vintage furniture business comes with its own set of expenses, but affiliate marketing is a cost-effective way to add value to our brand without breaking the bank.

9. **Flexibility**: We get to handpick affiliates who align perfectly with our brand values, ensuring that our recommendations are as authentic as the vintage finds we cherish.

10. **Scaling Opportunities**: As we grow our affiliate marketing efforts, our business can scale without the constraints of physical inventory or location, promising a broader range of vintage discoveries for our customers.

I invite you to join me on this thrilling venture as we continue to celebrate and preserve the beauty of vintage furniture. Together, we're building a sustainable, flexible, and thriving community of vintage enthusiasts. Stay tuned for updates as we embark on this exciting new chapter!

Hi Linda, that is impressive. I am glad you took the leap!

So am I - needed to get out of my comfort zone !

Hi Linda,

I am really excited and it isnt even my shop or blog. Hahaha

I dont know how you plan to do your blog, but you can have one page per item on your blog and maybe get chat GPT to write an article about the item and then you can fill in the blanks and add a "More Human Touch" to the blog.

I once saw a program years ago where an organisation was promoting a vase online that didnt belong to them but because it was worth a lot of money, when it was sold the organisation received a commission because they were the ones that advertised and promoted the vase, even though they didnt own it.

Actually, it was a bit like an online gallery, rather than a blog.

Good Luck,

Brian

Yes - sounds like a good idea 💡

Those are all great reasons to jump into affiliate marketing, Linda. Owning your business shows that you are not immune to long hours & hard work. Affiliate marketing will require lots of it. I wish you the best in all of your endeavors!

Regards, Matt
