Margie Barkley: CoviD-19: Starting an Affiliate Marketing Business

Since the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19), I have received SO many questions about how to start an online affiliate marketing business that I felt the need to write this blog.

Many of you have reached out to me because you have lost your job or have been laid off indefinitely due to the pandemic. You are now looking for quick ways to make money online and think affiliate marketing is the best way to do this.

I truly feel for you.

I KNOW the unemployment $600 per week Coronavirus booster shot will not take care of your family. This is especially true if you have the virus and do not have insurance. The cost of Covid-19 treatment is absolutely prohibitive.

Unfortunately, that money will soon be gone as Republicans oppose the extension of the policy. They argue that employees are discouraged from returning to work because the benefit, which allows many people to make more while working, is deterrent.

Many Americans are unable to return to work after the pandemic because they do not have hazard pay or guaranteed sick time.

Having said that, I would caution you to not rush to purchase (or waste your money on) any affiliate marketing education product or any product that claims to make you money online fast.

Internet marketing “sharks” are currently preying on the poor in large numbers.

One seller will offer to sell you a $60 package of PLR through the Warrior Forum. This can be used to improve the content on your website, or to market to others. The merchant will sell 500 packages and make $30,000, but none of their buyers will earn anything from the purchase. That is because the PLR content will not reach Page 100 of Google.

It is not easy to make a living online. I have never seen it as simple.

My first Internet marketing company was founded while I was still working full-time as an air traffic controller. I also worked 100 hours per week to build my business. I worked, studied, and worked more.

Doing exactly this made me successful and I now make $500,000US per annum.

Don’t fall for the “get rich quick” scam. Marketers are out to get you.

Affiliate marketing is a skill that takes time.

Researching successful affiliate marketers is a great way to get started in affiliate marketing. Food, mommy, lifestyle and other bloggers. THEY work hard, and they deserve every penny they make.

Find your niche, and use it to your advantage.

If you are in the U.S., vote for the evil elements that destroy public education and oppose universal healthcare. COVID-19 services should not be paid for by anyone unless the person is terribly stupid, refuses to socially distance themselves from others, and wears a mask in public. They WANTED to contract the disease, pass it on to others and make the U.S. economy more dysfunctional for many months to come.

Just saying.

Cheers, sig-ros
