Hi Remie, great questions and congrats for getting into the space. I remember when I was 18 I wrote a 5 year financial plan for myself and set personal goals that I was was determined to see through. As a result of that drive/ focus and desire I owned 4 properties, 3 businesses, had 2 amazing kids and married one awesome guy all before I turned 30. Reading your post, I think you're actually a very strong writer and could do well with a blog, which may be a good place to start. If you'd like help setting that up, you can contact me directly or checkout a bunch of other low cost options for setting up a blog. I recommend wordpress. You can also follow and learn from James Martell (affiliate marketers super bootcamp) who will help you do it right. He can help you find your vertical / niche and get you started. The way you're thinking is good - what niche would you enjoy that there is a lot of demand for, then maybe try to break it down into an even smaller niche that has enough demand but not many people doing it well. You don't have to write a blog to be an affiliate marketer either. You could start building an email list of people who trust and follow you. You could work out personal deals with the merchants and get custom tracking (coupon code, exclusive phone number or custom URL) and promote offline through newspapers, brochures, business cards, or even speaking at events. There are a lot of ways to go. But first you have to pick your niche and stick with it. It takes time. You're doing the right thing by researching and learning now. If you want to chat more about what options you have feel free to drop me a line.
