It’s okay to not have all the answers

One of the problems I see for people who have decided to become an Affiliate Marketer is that they think they need to know all the answers before they begin.

They want to make sure that every aspect and every possibility is covered. And that’s fine to a point. Yes you need to have a plan with Affiliate Marketing as with any business but a lot of the answers you need will come along as you work your business.

Yes knowing what market you will target, knowing what income you want and knowing your advertising budget are questions best answered at the start but needing to know something like “how do you place an affiliate advert in your websites sidebar” will be answered when you get to that part and not before.

All the lights Green

I can understand why people want to be prepared as well as they possibly can but trying to know it all before you begin is a bit like getting into your car and only setting off when all the traffic lights are green.

Yes you can wait for the first light to be green but for the rest of the journey you will have to work it out as you go along.

Information overload

One of the issues with trying to know it all at the start as an Affiliate Marketer is information overload. You gather together so much information that it starts to overwhelm you and eventually it makes you think that its just too difficult to do. And lot of this information won’t make sense until you actually start working your business.

Looking to fail

One of the reasons I see people looking for all the answers is because deep down they are really looking for an excuse to fail or to be more precise a reason not to begin in the first place.

I know this because when I am asked these questions they are always negative ones related to how the business could fail. The people who succeed will always ask questions about how its going to work.

Letting Go

So if you are about to begin working an affiliate marketing business breath in and let go. You don’t need to know all the answers right now, you don’t even need to know them all ever but what you do need is to know that the answer you need will be found at exactly the right time that you need it.
