I will start with a story—a story of one of my secondary schoolmates whom recently, I reconnected with.
Yesterday, we hopped on a call where he revealed to me that; early this year, he started affiliate marketing.
But so far, he hasn't made much.
And right now, he is considering quitting to focus on his craft; he makes shoes.
On the call, he complained bitterly about how much he had wasted on Ads, courses & mentorship.
"Should I quit?" That was the question he threw at me.
After a long pause, I told him, "I don't know".
That sounds too harsh, right?
Well, let's face it... There's nobody who knows what is best for you than you do.
I learned this from listening to Jordan Peterson, one of the most resourceful people alive (in my books). You should check him out one of these days.
He said, I can't remember his exact words, but it was something along...
"Try as much as possible not to advise people. Instead, listen & ask them questions that point them in the direction of the solution".
And that was exactly what I did with my friend.
Because more often than not, the solution to our problems lies within us. We just need to dig beyond the surface.
I asked him questions that led him to a conclusion. At least, right now, he is not quitting.
I believe these questions will benefit you too. That's why I want to share them with you.
Here YOU go:
- 1- If you quit affiliate marketing/online marketing. What better option do you have?
- 2- Since you've started affiliate marketing/marketing. Have you spent 3 hours every day for 90 days mastering a specific skill under this business?
- 3- Instead of quitting, why not use your affiliate marketing skills to sell your crafts?
, I don't know what situation you're in. But perhaps you're equally considering quitting this online thing because it is not working for you right now.
Ponder over the questions above.

PS: if you've decided not to quit this online marketing thing. Then, of course, you must step up your lead generation game, So why not start here?
