A (not so smooth) affiliate launch.

When you see these “overnight success” launches, and they are everywhere at once, it can seem like affiliates would be a great idea.

But there’s actually a lot more involved then you might think…

Don’t use affiliates until you’ve launched on your own at least 5 times.

You need at least 3-5 launches under your belt, to work on structuring your ideal launch timeline, create stunning launch graphics, and putting together a proven course/program/product that affiliates will be confident to promote.

No one wants to put their name on something if they aren’t sure it works.

You need to prove that your new course/program is not only in-demand, but also that it gets results for those who join.

Launching solo for the first few times also allows you to collect the early profits yourself. And leaves you more to re-invest for improving your marketing, designing a custom sales page or re-recording the course itself.
