As the old adage goes, what you resist, persists. So face your fears.
They'll never go away unless you tackle them head on. So get moving,
grab what you're resisting by the horns, and if it throws you on the
floor and you fail; who cares.
Dust yourself off, get yourself up and back in the saddle.

University and grade school students are heading back to school now and this is going to drastically change the daily traffic habits of the 16-24 demographic.
If you were day parting your traffic over the summer you may want to open your campaigns up to the full day to collect some data so you can re-optimize your campaigns for the fall semester.

Compromise, quality vs. Quantity.
Everyday we get pushed by advertisers for 'more leads' only to get a return file at the end of the month. So if quality is your thing, then provide your publishers with the type of lead you're looking for. If you're looking for volume, figure out a payout that will keep you in the black, and still get the quantity you're aiming for.
In either case, there is a compromise that has to be made by either side. Which will always be a win-win.

It is extremely important to be trustworthy.
It is your repeat visitors that will drive traffic. They are the ones who will spread the word and recommend your site as the go-to place for valuable content.
You need to build a relationship based on genuine content.

Speak up.
You want something, you need to go get it. No one else is going to hold your hand and take you to it.
Maybe your publishers don't know you can accept more traffic to a certain offer. Maybe your advertisers don't know you need better creatives for their offer to do well. Speak up and you will find more people wanting to help you then you realize!

Share with your publishers and partners the offers and tools your company provides in this market that make you stand out. The performance of your offers is great, but the reporting tools and other company features & benefits can give you an advantage in this industry.
'Stand out and be noticed!

Too much of a good thing can be counterproductive, so remember to switch out your creatives on a regular basis if you find a category or brand that works for you.
A stale creative is a big turn-off and you'll soon see your open rates start to dip. Keep it fresh and share your findings with your AM so the network can provide a steady stream of refreshed and action-oriented creatives.

Know Your Prospect: Research is King
Selling is a sequential process and it all starts with effective research. Make it a habit to learn about your prospect before you speak with them for the first time.
Warm-up and discovery are far easier when you can show the client that you have done your homework.

Follow up and Follow Through:
We all know how inundated our Inbox gets with email and things we need to follow up with.
At the end of each day take five to ten minutes and create a checklist of things you'e working on and also those items you want to accomplish the next day so that when you get into the office the following morning you can pick right back up.
Managing your day by your inbox can lead to a disaster in which you forget to follow up on important details.
