People ask what I changed to grow my affiliate program and the honest answer disappoints them. Almost nothing. The commission is the same as day one. Here are the two things that did change, and only one of them had anything to do with affiliates.

A new Mastermind member told me something was "easy" for me that wasn't easy for her. That one sentence taught me more about my own skill than years of thinking about it did.

Nobody publishes what a free summit actually makes, so everyone guesses. Here are the real numbers from one July event, including the order bump decision that cost me about $1,400 when I already had the data telling me not to make it.

Most sponsorship pages read like a résumé. Subscriber count, open rate, a contact form. Here are the six blocks that turn it into a page that sells the slot without you being in the room, plus the case for putting your prices in public.

Wait until 10,000 subscribers, then start selling sponsorships. That advice costs creators years of revenue. A small list does not have a size problem, it has a buyer problem, and the fix is smaller placements sold to people who already know you.

Two creators with the same size list charge $75 and $900 for the same slot. Neither is wrong. Sponsorship pricing has almost no visible market, so most creators guess low and leave money there for years. Here is how to build your number instead of picking one.

Grow first, monetize later sounds responsible. It also means you can spend three years building a list and still have no idea what anyone will pay for. Here is the 30 day test that gives you the answer, using four small offers you can set up this week.

The polished brand you're competing with was never one person. It was a 20-person department with a seven-figure payroll. AI just handed you every one of those seats. Here's how to run the whole engine yourself, and the one job you still can't hand off.

Every sponsorship pricing guide starts with your subscriber count. That's the wrong input. Here are the four decisions that actually set your rate, the numbers I landed on, and the cap mistake that almost cost me $148 an issue.
