"What The Hell Have I Got Myself Into?!?!?"

If you're anything like me, you've probably thought it a few times since you first logged in. hehe
A lot of us feel overwhelmed when we first start at WA because there's just so much information to absorb.  Making money with affiliate marketing is a BIG subject and there's no end to the stuff you can learn.
Fortunately, you can start making some money after you learn the basics.  As you learn more, your profits will grow.
Just give yourself some time to let it all sink in and you'll be fine.
I've collected some resources to help you start on the right foot.  If you have any questions, send me a private message.  I'll try to find the answer and add it to this page. 
Take care and enjoy your journey!

P.S.  If you run across a newbie who's feeling overwhelmed, please let them know about The Newbie Zone!  I reach out to as many as I can, but I can't catch everyone.  Here's the link:
