And the sweet thing about it.. Every individual Affiliate starts building their OWN Independent, Profitable, Private Little Empire...IMMEDIATELY! This is ACCOMPLISHED by Affiliates sticking together. Did you know Affiliates are the Largest Group of workers on the Internet? Let's put that to work for us.Don't be saying - To heck with him, why should he make any Money? That means you don't get it yet. (working together). If you don't want or think, the Affiliate who introduced you to a great Affiliate program you signed up with (their actually your partner) deserves to make any money on your sales, and you figure you can make the same or more without him. "You better think again". If every Affiliate thought like that, it wouldn't be possible for ANY Affiliate in this whole World to make much money. And surprisingly, that's one of the reasons the majority of Affiliates don't make any money. That, along with the dishonest schemes just around every corner. ( More info. on schemes, a list of scam advertisers and a scam forum & message board at http://www.moneyhonesty.com/disc2_welc.htm )Your forgetting that it takes a whole team.

"Team play is EXTREMELY CRITICAL" (It's the ONLY way you can assure success in an online Affiliate program)If you truly want to make as much money as you possibly can from your Internet marketing, you *MUST* work together with other Internet marketers (Affiliates). PERIOD. No matter what you are trying to "do" with your life, you will excel at a much faster pace by surrounding yourself and learning from others that are also trying to do the same thing.You are reading this because you are trying to make money from home as an Internet marketer. You are trying to build wealth by making money from your efforts on the Internet. You can certainly "go it alone" but if you take advantage of how EASY it is to make friends with other Internet marketers, and then to share in their results and experiences, you will make FIFTY TIMES the amount of money than if you only rely on yourself to build wealth with the Internet.It's tough for a beginner to "pick and choose" an honest program, tougher yet trying to work with a loosing situation constantly in their face. A good Affiliate program will take care of the "pick and choose", then all you have to do is work together. It's quite simple to be doing well as long as your all on the same page. Smart Affiliates actually work WITH & FOR each other, and are achieving their goals. I long for the day when all Affiliates realize that fact.REMEMBERYour Business will grow by everyone being reliable and working together. So, if you still don't get it.....read on.It Gets Better: Your sub-affiliates earn the same high commissions YOU DO, selling and promoting the affiliate products. With a sub-affiliate program (two tier), you have the opportunity to recommend the Affiliate Program to your customers, subscribers, visitors, opt-in e-mail list, etc... and recruit an army of sub-affiliates.For each sale that one of your sub-affiliates make, you earn a percentage of your sub-affiliates sale above and beyond the high commission that they're earning!

I can't predict where your headed, or not headed. But I can say this, DON'T JUST BE A READER - BE A DOER! If you keep repeating actions which fail, you'll continue failing. If what you're doing isn't working well, it's time to change it, to move out of your comfort zone and try something new.However, whatever you do, if you want to start an internet business you have to take action.
