WHAT HAS SURPRISED YOU MOST ABOUT THE AFFILIATE MARKETING MODEL?
There’s an incredible amount of depth and it is so customizable. Affiliate marketing models will wildly vary depending on where you are and what your goals are. It’s kind of a jack-of-all trades, but it can also be hyper-focused. Your strategy is what you make of it!
