The Idea Behind Affiliate Marketing Guild
Hi, I'm Vilius.
When I initially began working with affiliate marketing a few years
back, I had no idea what I was getting into. I was aware that I would need
to work with so-called partners, but I wasn't sure who these people were,
where to find them, or how to conduct business with them.
What added complexity to my struggle was the fact that we did not and
currently, we do not have enough quality training material for people who
want to become better at managing affiliate programs, bring more
partners, bring more traffic, and bring more sales to their companies.
We have an abundance of webinars, training programs, books and courses on how to become excellent PPC managers, content writers, CRO and SEO specialists, but we don't have nearly as many on how to become excellent affiliate marketing managers.
Reflecting on this experience, I asked a bunch of affiliate marketing managers how they learned this craft, and most of them said it was through trial and error. This got me thinking - why don't we create a community for affiliate marketing managers to learn, grow, and become better at what they do?
When I started to work with affiliate marketing, I faced the struggle that I did not have enough content to consume on the topic, and I did not have many people around me to whom I could go for expert advice, so I wanted to create this place where affiliate marketing managers come, learn, communicate with each other, share ideas, give feedback, and make each of us better at what we do.
So, the primary mission of the Affiliate Marketing Guild is to serve as a learning platform, especially for new affiliate marketing managers, where they can come, ask questions, network, and grow as professionals.
