Here’s Why You Think Affiliate Marketing Is a Scam (And Why You’re Wrong)

Everywhere you look online, someone is screaming about affiliate marketing being a scam. Maybe you’ve seen the comments, the YouTube rants, or the bitter Reddit threads.

Heck, maybe you’re one of the people whose been doing the screaming and saying its a scam.

If that’s you, this post is for you.

And listen, you’re probably not going to like what I’m about to say. But if you can set your ego aside and really pay attention, I promise it will help you.

So here’s the thing, the number one reason people think affiliate marketing is a scam is because they don’t want to do the work.

What usually happens is, you see someone online hyping up how easy it is to make thousands of dollars in passive income with affiliate marketing, and you think, “That sounds great! Let me give it a try”

So you make a couple of posts on Instagram, maybe upload a video or two on YouTube, and then… crickets.

No commissions. No sales. No nothing.

And then, like clockwork, the excuses start…..

“Affiliate marketing doesn’t work. It’s all a scam!”

But let me stop you right there. Affiliate marketing isn’t the problem. The problem is that you didn’t treat it like a real business.

Now, I’ll cut you some slack. Part of this isn’t your fault.

There are so-called “gurus” out there hyping up affiliate marketing like it’s some magic ATM. They promise you that with a few clicks and some secret strategy, you’ll be raking in cash while sipping cocktails on a beach.

They make it sound effortless.

They do this because they are preying on your desire for quick results without effort. And while it’s frustrating that people like this exist, you’re an adult.

Deep down, you already know there’s no such thing as effortless money.

So if you’re one of the ones calling affiliate marketing a scam, it’s because you weren’t willing to treat it like the business it is.

It requires work. It requires learning new skills, creating content, building trust with your audience, and consistently putting in the effort, even when you’re not seeing results right away.

If you’re not willing to do that, then affiliate marketing isn’t for you.

And guess what?

Neither is any other online business.

Want to Learn How to Do It Right?

If you’re still reading and you’re ready to ditch the excuses, I’ve got something that can actually help you.

I created the Affiliate Marketing Blueprint to help people like you cut through the noise, skip the fluff, and finally start making real money online, even if you’re starting from zero.

Inside, you’ll get a clear, step-by-step roadmap to launch your affiliate marketing business the right way. No tech overwhelm, no begging for clicks, and no wasting time on things that don’t move the needle.

👉 If you’re ready to put in the work, grab the blueprint and start building your online income today.

How an Online Business Allows You to Scale Your Income Infinitely

Let me be very clear, you will never build wealth in a system that caps your income.

And that’s exactly what a 9-to-5 job does. It puts a ceiling on your paycheck, ties it to your time, and forces you to trade hours for dollars until you burn out or break down.

But when you build an online business, that ceiling disappears.

There is no limit to how much you can earn when you have an online business.

You can literally reach millions of people and sell to anyone on the planet. And most importantly, you’re not limited by time. Your content, your offers, and your systems will work for you while you sleep.

With a traditional job, your income stops the moment you clock out. With an online business, your income keeps growing even when you’re not working on it.

That’s leverage!

And as I teach in The Money Blueprint, leverage is what allows you to break free from the limitations of time.

Just think about it, you can create a product once and sell it over and over again, 24 hours a day, while you are off enjoying your life.

Again, that’s leverage!

And that’s the power of the internet. It never sleeps. Which means your business doesn’t either.

With an online business you don’t have to beg for a promotion or wait on someone to hand you a raise.

You set the pace. You call the shots. And you decide how far you want to take it.

Whether it’s $10K a year or $10M, it’s possible. And that possibility doesn’t come from hustle alone, it comes from building scalable systems.

You don’t need a hundred employees or VC funding. You just need the right mindset, the right offer, and the guts to execute.

If you’re still thinking like an employee, you’ll keep chasing small money. But if you want to scale your income infinitely, it’s time to build something online that works harder than you ever could.

Because once you step into the world of online business, you stop trading time for money…..and start creating income without limits.

How To Start an Affiliate Business From Scratch When You Have $0

No money. No audience. No experience.

For most people they think that means they can’t start an online business.

But the truth is, you don’t need a big audience, a big budget, or any experience to get started.

You just need the right mindset, daily effort, and a few free tools that are already at your fingertips.

Let’s break it all down….

Mindset First

The biggest difference between people who make it in affiliate marketing and those who quit isn’t money, it’s mindset.

If you come into this expecting fast money, you’ll burn out and give up. But if you show up knowing that this is a skill you’re building, one that can pay you for life, you’ll treat every small win like momentum.

Listen, you’re not going to get rich overnight. But you can build something meaningful within the next 30 to 90 days.

Start thinking like a producer, and not a consumer. Don’t scroll endlessly watching others win, start creating value yourself so you can win too.

Start with Free Tools

You don’t need a website or fancy software to start promoting affiliate products. Here are some free tools you can use to get the ball rolling.

  • YouTube – One of the best places to start is YouTube. It’s free, searchable, and evergreen. You can create short videos (even without showing your face) reviewing products, sharing tips, or walking through how something helped you.
  • ChatGPT – Stuck on what to say? Use ChatGPT to brainstorm video scripts, blog post ideas, email drafts, or product summaries. It’s like having a free content assistant in your pocket.
  • Canva – Canva is a design tool you can use to create thumbnails, social media posts, and graphics for your content. The free plan is all you need to get started.
  • Social media – Use platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, or Threads to document your journey, share valuable tips, and build trust. You don’t need to be an influencer, just be consistent and real.
  • Google Docs / Sheets – Organize your ideas, track your links, and plan your content calendar with Google Docs. Its free, simple, and effective.

Your Job Is to Show Up Daily

The best affiliate marketers aren’t the flashiest. They’re just the most consistent.

Your goal is to publish something every single day, even if it’s short. A quick post, a video, a tip, a product you love, or a lesson you learned.

Every piece of content you publish is a digital asset. Over time, those assets compound and start to drive clicks, traffic, and commissions.

Don’t worry about being perfect. Just focus on showing up every single day.

You’re Building Long-Term Leverage

The beauty of affiliate marketing is that the work you do today can pay you next week, next month, and even next year.

It’s not fast money. But it’s real, scalable income that grows as you grow.

And the best part is you can start from zero. No budget, no connections, and no experience.

Just hustle, Wi-Fi, and the right strategy.

If you’re serious about starting the right way, I created something to help.

It’s called the Affiliate Marketing Blueprint, and its a simple, no-fluff guide that walks you through how to get started, how to pick the right products, and how to create content that actually gets clicks and sales (even if you don’t have an audience).

You’ll also get a bonus short report:

3 Things You Need To Know Before Starting Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing can change your life. But if you’re just getting started, there’s a good chance you’re making it harder than it needs to be.

Not because it’s complicated, but because most people chase the wrong things, listen to the wrong advice, and overlook what actually matters.

Here are the three things you need to know before starting affiliate marketing.

1. You Don’t Need to Fake Authority

When you’re new, it’s easy to feel like you need to look like an expert. Like no one will take you seriously unless your content is flawless and you already seem successful.

But here’s the thing, people don’t care how perfect you look, they care about how much you can help them.

You don’t need a huge following or years of experience. You just need to show up honestly, share what you know, and explain things in a way that makes someone’s life easier.

If you can do that, people will listen. And eventually they will click.

2. Going Viral Isn’t the Goal—Consistency Is

You might be tempted to chase trends, hoping that one post blows up and puts you on the map.

That almost never works.

What does work is showing up daily. Writing helpful content. Posting with purpose. Not trying to “win the internet,” but focusing on creating trust over time.

You don’t need one viral hit, you need a body of work that compounds.

3. Selling Isn’t Sleazy—If You Believe in What You Promote

A lot of beginners hold back from promoting because they don’t want to seem pushy. Maybe you’ve felt that too…like “selling” means scamming.

It doesn’t.

If you’ve found a product or course that actually helped you, and you know it can help others too, why wouldn’t you share it?

Selling with integrity doesn’t feel like selling. It feels like serving. When you believe in what you promote, it shows, and people respond.

And if you’re ready to start doing affiliate marketing the right way, not with hype or gimmicks, but with strategy and honesty, I put together a guide that can help.

It’s called the Affiliate Marketing Blueprint, and it’s a straight-to-the-point guide that walks you through how to get started, how to get your first clicks, and how to build momentum (even if you don’t have a big audience).

You’ll also get a bonus:
“11 AI Prompts That Can Help You Build Your Affiliate Business 10x Faster”—a short, powerful report that shows you how to use AI to create content, uncover ideas, and move faster.

If You’re Sick of Waiting for a Raise, Read This

You work hard…

You show up every day, do your job, and maybe even go above and beyond. But no matter how much effort you put in, your paycheck stays the same.

If you’re lucky, you might get a small raise once a year. But its never enough to cover the rising cost of living, and it most definitely won’t help you get to a place of true financial freedom.

And if you’re honest with yourself, you’re tired of it.

Tired of waiting for your boss to notice. Tired of hoping next year will be better. Tired of watching your income stay flat while your effort keeps going up.

Here’s the thing you have to understand…

If you rely on a job to change your financial situation, you’ll be waiting forever.

But what if you stopped waiting?

What if you gave yourself a raise?

Starting an online business is one of the most powerful ways to take control of your income, and your life.

It puts the power back in your hands. You get to decide how much you want to earn, how hard you want to work, and how far you want to go.

There’s no salary cap and no permission needed.

You can make as much money as you want. The only thing that can stop you is you.

An online business allows you break free from the time-for-money trap. You don’t have to clock in to earn and you don’t have to trade hours for dollars.

You can build something once and get paid over and over again.

One of the best ways to get started in the online business space is with affiliate marketing.

Affiliate marketing is simple. You promote products you believe in, and when someone buys through your link, you earn a commission.

No product creation. No customer service. No inventory.

It’s one of the most beginner-friendly business models out there, and it works in almost any niche.

If you want to learn more about affiliate marketing, check out The Affiliate Marketing Blueprint.

This guide will walk you through everything step by step and show you a clear path to your first affiliate commission, even if you’re starting from scratch.

If you’re sick of waiting for someone else to give you a raise… maybe it’s time to give yourself one.

What To Do After You Make Your First Affiliate Commission

Getting that first commission is a moment you’ll never forget. It feels amazing to know you’ve made money online, proving to yourself that it actually works.

But while celebrating that first sale is important, don’t stop there. That first commission is just the beginning.

In the Affiliate Marketing Blueprint, the focus is on getting you to that first commission as quickly as possible. That’s why I teach the launch jacking method, which is hands down one of the fastest ways to make money with affiliate marketing.

But the ultimate goal isn’t just a single $20 or $50 payout. The real goal is to build an affiliate business that has the power to replace (or even exceed) your 9 to 5 income.

So what should you do after you make your first affiliate commission?

1. Double Down on What Worked

Look closely at what brought you that first sale. Which offer converted? What keywords or content ranked? Which video or post drove the clicks? Instead of jumping to a completely new offer, double down. Optimize, repeat, and scale. If it worked once, it can work again and again.

2. Build a Content System

You might have gotten your first sale through one review video or a single launch jacking post, but long-term success comes from a consistent content system. Set a publishing schedule, batch-create content, and plan ahead so you never run dry. Consistency compounds.

3. Start Capturing Emails

After you’ve proven you can make a sale, your next move is to build an email list. It’s your biggest safety net because it allows you to follow up, build trust, and recommend future offers to the same audience. One commission is good, but lifetime commissions from loyal subscribers is even better.

4. Diversify Over Time

Stick to launch jacking if it’s working, but once you have cash flow and a routine, start adding more evergreen content. Create tutorials, comparisons, and evergreen reviews that can keep working for you month after month, not just during a launch window.

5. Stay Laser Focused on Your Bigger Goal

Don’t get stuck in the thrill of a one-time win. Your mission is to build an affiliate business that pays you over and over again. Stay focused on systems, consistency, and audience building so that your income grows predictably.

Your first commission should prove to you that this is possible, but it’s just the first step.

If you haven’t made that first sale yet, or if you’re struggling to know what to do next, the Affiliate Marketing Blueprint lays out a simple, no-nonsense plan to move you forward.

It shows you exactly how to use launch jacking to get results quickly, then transition into building a business that can eventually replace your 9 to 5.

You’ll also get a free bonus:

Why I’ll Never Bash High-Ticket Courses

The internet is full of “gurus” selling overpriced garbage

They flash cars, show off rented mansions, and promise you can make $10,000 overnight, as long as you buy their “exclusive” $2,000 course.

It’s beyond frustrating.

And unfortunately, it gives the entire online education space a bad name.

But here’s the truth most people don’t want to admit….

Not all high-ticket courses are scams. In fact, many of them are worth every single penny.

There are real creators out there, people who’ve actually done what they teach, and are now pouring their knowledge into well-structured, step-by-step programs that genuinely help people succeed.

And here’s something else you might be surprised to hear….some of the not-so-great courses can still help you make money.

You see, the problem usually isn’t the course, it’s the person who buys it and never follows through.

What you have to understand is that success online takes work.

You can’t skip steps. You can’t just watch a few videos and expect money to fall from the sky.

The best course in the world won’t help you if you’re not willing to put in the work. And sometimes, even a mediocre course can change your life if you do the work.

That’s why I’ll never bash a high-ticket course.

Because when you find the right one, the one that clicks with how you learn and gives you a clear roadmap, it can save you months, even years, of trial and error.

You can’t put a price tag on that.

Even still, not everyone can afford a thousand dollar course. And that’s exactly why I created The Affiliate Marketing Blueprint.

It’s just $27 and it cuts straight to the point.

Inside, you’ll learn a simple, proven process for earning your first affiliate commission…without all the fluff, without the overwhelm, and without needing to buy ten other tools just to get started.

Why Most People Fail at Affiliate Marketing (and how to avoid it)

Most people who start affiliate marketing fail.

Not because they’re lazy or unmotivated, but because they fall into traps that look like productivity but lead nowhere.

The first trap is shiny object syndrome. It’s when you constantly jump from one thing to the next. One day it’s blogging. The next, it’s TikTok. Then it’s email marketing or YouTube, or starting a new niche altogether.

You’re always “starting,” but never building anything long enough to see results. And in affiliate marketing, momentum only comes when you stay in one lane long enough to let it compound.

Then there’s inconsistency. This one’s pretty simple to understand. You start strong, post a few blogs, maybe make a few videos, and then disappear for a week… or three.

You tell yourself you’ll catch up later, but later never comes. What you don’t realize is that every time you stop, you’re resetting the trust you were just starting to build.

It’s not about going hard for a few days. It’s about showing up regularly, even if it’s imperfect.

And finally, the third trap is overthinking content. You waste hours trying to write the “perfect” post. You worry about grammar, structure, titles, SEO, and tone, and then you talk yourself out of publishing anything at all.

But perfection doesn’t make money, published content does. The people making consistent income are the ones who hit publish, learn fast, and improve over time.

Avoid these three mistakes and you’re already ahead of 90% of beginners.

And if you’re serious about getting this right, I created the Affiliate Marketing Blueprint to help you cut through the noise. It’s a simple, focused guide that shows you how to pick the right products, create content that drives clicks, and stay consistent without burning out.

You’ll also get a bonus: 11 AI Prompts That Can Help You Build Your Affiliate Business 10x Faster…perfect if you ever feel stuck on what to write or post.

If you’re tired of spinning your wheels and ready to actually get results, grab the blueprint now while it’s still on sale.

This $27 eBook Hits Harder Than Most $997 Courses

As you very well know, there are hundreds, maybe even thousands, of courses out there claiming to teach affiliate marketing. Some of them are packed with value, others are full of nonsense.

Now before we go any further, this isn’t about bashing high-ticket courses.

Truth is, a well-made course can be a solid investment. When done right, it can save you a ton of time and give you the roadmap you’ve been looking for.

But let’s be real, not everyone has $1,000 to drop on a course.

That’s one of the biggest reasons The Affiliate Marketing Blueprint was created in the first place.

It’s simple. It’s affordable. And it cuts straight to what actually matters, showing you exactly what you need to do to earn your first affiliate commission.

Its just a clear, step-by-step guide you can start using today.

But here’s the thing most people overlook, nothing works unless you do.

You can read every blog post, download every freebie, even invest in the fanciest course on the internet, but if you don’t take action, none of it matters.

If you’re serious about creating an income online and you’re willing to put in the work, this guide will help you start the right way, without drowning in information overload or wasting money you don’t have.

So the question is….

Are you going to keep waiting for the “perfect” moment… or are you going to take the first step now?

Your first commission could be closer than you think.

How Jordan Belfort Made $50 Million a Year by Age 26 While Screwing Around

Jordan Belfort, also known as The Wolf of Wallstreet, wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Nor was he the smartest man in the room.

Yet, by the age of 26, this guy was raking in $50 million a year while spending most of his time screwing around.

How was he able to do that?

By figuring out a way to separate his time from his money.

Now, before we go any further, let me be very clear, I am not condoning what Jordan Belfort did.

I simply want you to understand how he did what he did so you too can use it to building a thriving online business.

Let me break it down….

If you’re still exchanging hours for dollars, you’re playing a losing game. You’ve only got 24 hours in a day.

That’s it.

If you’re only making money when you’re awake, you’re going to hit a ceiling fast.

In the words of Warren Buffet, “If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.”

Jordan understood this better than most.

You see, the key to his success wasn’t brains or connections, it was leverage. And as I talk about in The Money Blueprint, leverage is how you break free from the limitations of time.

Belfort hired hundreds of stockbrokers to push his sales pitch, hammering the phones day in and day out. It was a numbers game. The more people you reach, the more money you make.

The beauty in all of this is that he wasn’t the one pushing his sales pitch. His army of brokers were working around the clock, bringing in cash while Jordan was out living his best life.

Now, let’s fast forward to today…..

The internet is the ultimate leverage tool. Forget cold-calling wealthy people, now you can reach millions online with the click of a few buttons.

Set up an automated system, whether it’s an e-commerce store, an affiliate marketing funnel, or a subscription service, and watch as it generates money 24/7.

Yes, it takes time to set everything up, and you’ll need to hustle to get things rolling. But once the system is in place, it’s like having an army of stockbrokers working for you while you sleep. The opportunity is staring you in the face, but the clock is ticking.

It’s time to stop trading time for money and start creating real wealth. The only question left is, are you ready to take action?
