The Flipped Lifestyle Podcast show

Summary: <a href="https://flippedlifestyle.com/podcast123/"></a><br> Yes, we said it. And we'll tell you exactly why we are not a big fan of affliates.<br> We are going to tackle a topic that has been on our mind (and to be honest, getting on our nerves) for a while now: Affiliate Launches.<br> <br> SO many online marketers jump on the affiliate launch bandwagon.<br> <br> You know the drill.<br> <br> A guru has a new product, book or course.  Offers a great "opportunity" for other people online to sell it to their list...for a sweet commission of course.  And BOOM, inboxes around the world explode with message after message after message about this life-changing widget.<br> <br> Sigh.<br> <br> Affiliate launches kind of drive us crazy, not just because of the endless spamming, but because of the missed opportunities!<br> <br> What would happen if all of those affiliates focused on building their own brands, instead of someone else's?<br> <br> We get offered to join affiliate launches all the time.  We have always said no.<br> <br> Today we tell you why.<br> <br> On today's podcast, we are going to share our personal take and insight on why we want to keep our brand ad, affiliate and guru-free.<br> <br> We will also reveal our big surprise for the incoming year, future plans for our premium community and other good stuff y’all are going to find useful in your online business journey.<br> <br> Also, we want you to know that we are over-the-roof from all the success stories that we’ve received from our listeners, fans and members throughout the year.<br> <br> We are very proud of what you have accomplished and are excited for even greater successes to come!<br> <br> It has truly been an amazing and eventful year here at the Flipped Lifestyle, so we would like to thank every single one of you for your trust and continued support.<br> <br> Although 2016 is about to come to an end, we urge you to keep dreaming big, get out there and do whatever it takes to flip your life.<br> <br> <br> [Tweet ""Control your own destiny.
