My Dad and Affiliate Marketing

One of the most common emails I get is people inquiring about how my father is progressing in the world of affiliate marketing. So I’ll give you guys a little update on what’s happening.

He hasn’t sold his dental practice yet, so he’s still waiting on that to go full-time online. The contracts are all drawn up, the buyer (his friend) just has to make his final decision and sign. Aside from that, my dad still is learning on the side. He decided to be Miss Independent and go out and buy like 8 books on affiliate marketing, PPC, and stock day trading (he said he wanted to give this an attempt as well). I told him he should have just asked me for helpful links that would have taught him just as much, but he’s happy taking his books to work with him and says he’s learning a little more each day. When we go out for family dinners he usually has quite a few questions to ask, but he seems to be understanding it more and more as I answer them.

Once he (hopefully) sells his practice, I’ll be having him apply for a few networks and putting him in touch with my affiliate managers. He shouldn’t have a problem being accepted anywhere, so he’ll have all of my AMs to bug when he has small questions or wants suggestions on offers.

So, that’s what he’s been up to. Learning bit by bit PPC, as well as looking into doing some day trading. I’ll let you guys know if anything else major happens, and when he starts doing this full time.
