The Power of a Promo Plan in Affiliate Marketing
I was reflecting on our biggest affiliate marketing successes right before I recorded this and it all came down to one thing: A PLAN! I recorded this at a gas station somewhere in the middle of Kentucky on my way to one of the most special places on earth...Blackberry Farm. It's the site of the top affiliates getaway with Michael Hyatt, Jeff Walker, and Pat Flynn...and me. To get there, I had to beat out some legends like Ryan Levesque, Ray Edwards, Stu McLaren, Kevin Harrington, and more. How did we do it? I share how in this episode.

Think You're Short on Time? Think Again.
If you think you're short on time and can't make a difference with your business, you need to hear this short message today. It's inspired by an email I received from Colter Reed and it has a powerful truth in it. Here's the email from Colter: Good afternoon, Matt! Just wanted to drop you a quick note… I’m a little dizzy. I’m currently #13 on the leaderboard! I’m sure it won’t last; I’m just stoked that I made an appearance in the top 15. Here’s the crazy part: due to bad planning on my part, I was completely unprepared for the launch, including the fact that I’m super busy right now. But I still wanted to let my tribe know about F2F. I sent one email about the questionnaire the day it went live, and a second email at lunch today (guess when I wrote the email) about the webinars and cart open. Two emails.
