3 Things I Would Do Differently If I Started From Scratch
I've been doing affiliate marketing for almost 10 years, and I have achieved quite a bit in that time. But I've also made my share of mistakes. In this video, I want to share with you 3 of the biggest things I would do differently if I were starting my business from scratch to help you avoid these same pitfalls and reach success much faster.

Hey, Tim
Thank you for the advice in this video. I’m a novice here, and it’s really useful to have these insights as I find my way around and try not to get overwhelmed. Your suggestions are all about simplicity and focus – I’ll use them as guiderails.
Thanks, Tim. It's great advice. I have already made some of the same mistakes. I recently started again from scratch and am pretty well following your recommendations, having learned from my own experience.
My pleasure, Isabella. Glad you are moving forward with persistence, that's what it's all about!
I think these are great tips, Tim. Thanks. Although I feel I'm making the second one myself with trying to do too many things. I'll refocus and let some things go to focus on getting one thing sorted.
Really good advice. I would really like to take a look at your Affiliate Website and your YouTube channel if you have one. Can you please give me the links.
I will also check out some of your other videos.
Thanks
Scott

Good morning Tim,
Thank you for the information, it's appreciated.
It's great that you've been to the Wealthy Affiliate super affiliate conference six times, well done to that!
It's always good to learn from someone who has been there and done that and who is successful!
I've seen loads of people spending loads of time on making their website look pretty, but unfortunately that doesn't bring traffic. My Webmaster in the US told me this years ago, and I have proved it, as my sites aren't particularly pretty, but they seem to work! I understand that the time spent on design could be used for much more productive tasks.
I'm definitely guilty of trying to do too much or too many things, I think part of that comes from enthusiasm, but at the same time it has a negative effect. Focusing on one niche is definitely better, but sometimes it's hard!
One of the ways I try and stay on track is by using the Pomodoro technique, although it's more the timer that helps me , rather than the actual Pomodoro technique, it helps me recognise that time is disappearing quickly. Routine is definitely good and being organised helps a lot. Too many distractions can make me totally lose that flow, if I can get in the flow, then I can achieve a lot!
Being up early in the morning also helps me, as I am definitely a morning person. I like to be up at 5 AM, sometimes before, it definitely helps me achieve more.
Thank you for the great tips, Tim, it's always good to have a sound reminder.
Have a great day.
Roy
