Time flies when you're having fun, and I really am having fun. But make no bones about it, this is not a new hobby I have chosen for myself. (I remind myself) This is my second attempt... a re-try, if you will, from an unsuccessful attempt at affiliate marketing 10 years ago. So, if anything, I have ground to make up.
I'm fulfilling a Course 4 Lesson 8 assignment here to write a post on WA where I can document my progress. I'm most pleased by a recent success in developing a direct relationship with a product provider/manufacturer who doesn't yet have a formal affiliate program... I'll be the guinea pig I told them. So, that's going to be fun as I love their products and use them myself.
Although I have about 4 affiliate networks approving me, none handle my product category... so I keep trying the direct route as I have with about 4 or 5 others. Guess I'll just keep going direct till I get some respect!
Time for Social media launch, and I'm trying to figure that out. I still have more posts and content to add before that though... goal is to launch within the next 4 weeks. I want to learn more about that before I let FB friends and family.... and all my FB friends for that matter know. I know it doesn't have to be perfect, but I do want it to be respectable, and have it represent well... not appear too immature. I want half of my product reviews to have affiliate sales connected to them by then so I can hopefully recoup some expenses at the same time/effort.

So that's where my short term hopes lie. Mid-term goals are to make my first $1K/month by end of Q1 2017.
Week seven... Am I in heaven? No, just dreaming. ;^>
Thank so very much to all of you who have helped me and so many others to reach for their dreams. It's so very true, that I would not be this far along in my journey without WA. What a pleasure it is to be part of it all.
Have a great weekend! You deserve it!!

PS - Hee... below it says, "Go ahead and add some tags"... I still am not clear on this "tag" thing :) So tag, you're it.
