There are quite a few threads currently on "getting rich". For many it seems to be the main motivator to get into affiliate marketing - and reading posts, it looks like this same attitude becomes the biggest frustration too. Are these just the two sides of the same coin? If you focus on getting rich, you will get burnt making lots of money and will loose it instead? I think so. The end result is that most people give up and only a few with this initial attitude continue pursuing their dream ... which has changed focus from getting rich ... to what actually? So here my question: Why do you continue in affiliate marketing even though you got disillusioned in the beginning? When money did not come in the quantities I was made to expect by those who have been in the business for years, I adjusted my time frame. What I do it right, but it takes more time. Keep going. Don't give up! Trees don't grow overnight - only weeds! I'm in for the long run now, not the quick cash - although that is welcome too. I'm prepared to learn before I make the million.
Most who are successful at affiliate marketing do it because they are passionate about it. Money, or getting rich is just the result of hard work and passion.
