If I had spent the money I had in the beginning on content I think I would be better off. My problem is I took people's advice and became an affiliate, and started shooting for other people. In retrospect, I should have continued with shooting for myself only and running my own paysites.
That's why I don't really listen to what people say anymore about "learning if you can hang as an affiliate before starting your own paysites"... funny thing, I've NEVER been able to hang as an affiliate. I haven't been able to generate even a small fraction of the sales I can generate with my own paysites. Interesting how that works, isn't it?
I can't emphasize enough that I would have been much better off just shooting for myself, and owning my own paysites.
