So you have been in the affiliate marketing game for a while but you aren’t making much. You try everything: optimizing, SEO-ing, outsourcing, and split-testing. Nothing is working! Have you tried to improve yourself? Have you tried to improve what you think? How you think about it?

If not, maybe you should be thinking about improving yourself and not your campaigns.

• Family Life Is Not Business

I can’t tell you how many affiliate marketers have mixed their personal life with their businesses. Don’t do it! They should be two separate entities in your life. Your work life is your work life, and your personal life is your personal life.

• Separate Your Money

Start separating your money. Your business accounts should be separate from you personal accounts. Not only is this great for accounting at the end of the year, but you’ll be able to spend more wisely. I hope.

• Think Slower

Sometimes you just need to step back and check what you are doing. Take it step by step and see what you are doing wrong and what you are doing right. This can help you build up a mental map of your activities and you can spot errors faster and with ease.

• Scout Competitors

Start scouting out your competitors. Your competitors can be a great, great source of knowledge. They might be doing something better then you, or just differently. Doing things differently will give you different results. You see, if you have been doing something that hasn’t been working and your competitor is doing the same thing, but you notice its working for them then copy! But don’ t just copy them. Copy them and improve on their concept.

• Innovation Isn’t The Cool Thing

Okay I lied. Innovators are awesome and the things they make are even better. But why not start with something that works to get the ball rolling? Starting with something that works will insure that you bring something in (revenue, members, etc).

• Find Inspiration

You don’t always need to look at your competitors. There are plenty of other places you can find for inspiration. Such as movies, non-competing businesses and executives, or even art. Inspiration can come from anywhere or anything.

• Journal

Some people believe that journals are for little girls, but some of the best thinkers in the world journal. Start journalising your days and nights. It will give you a way to re-read what has gone on the past day, week, month. You can also really just give the journal your negative feelings. Trust me, journals works!
