That's sooooo HOT!
 


Talking abour turtles, I had FIRST PRINT FIRST ISSUE of TMNT 1 that came out ages ago magazine style, I think it was limited to 2,000 copies, bought for like 500.00, sold it for like 3,000.00, this was like 5 years ago, it's probably worth a lot more now, So i guess im a sexy turtle..
 
Did affiliae marketing, money was good to sart off with but did'nt have the saying power, i love doing my design work now.
 
I, like many, started with seo sites, and those are supporting me while im trying to master media buying, which is quite hard and always changing. thats the thing, what works now may not work well in a couple of weeks(ads).
 
I used to be an affiliate, but ended up transferring the marketing skills I learned as one to my own business. If I see fit I may end up as an advertiser in the foreseeable future.

The biggest peace of mind I get from owning a real business opposed to the affiliate marketing gig is knowing how high the barrier entry to my business is. I don't have to worry about anyone with an idea just breaking into my business. In-between the regulatory hoops you have to jump through, the capital contributions, and supply-side requirements I know that the trillion dollar industry I'm in isn't going anywhere and competition won't dilute the market
 
I typically will be an affiliate initially to test a niche I am considering. If I get some success from the site I will typically create a product or turn it into an ecommerce.

So affiliate strictly for testing purposes.
