What Game? The Ads Were Good though.

Affiliate Tip of The Week |

Your offer or buy will only be as good as your understanding of the other side.
For an advertiser, that means fully understanding what converts for the publisher's traffic, and tailoring your offer appropriately.
For a publisher, that means working with either the advertiser or your affiliate manager to learn what backs out best for the advertiser, and targeting your buys/lists appropriately.
Ideally, the relationship should be mutually beneficial so that the advertiser can keep scaling, and the publisher can stay on the offer longer and therefore, become even more profitable. The more you know, the more you grow.

Work environment plays a huge role in your performance.
Politics will always arise, and misunderstandings will always happen.
But it's up to you to decide how to deal with it.
Remember your actions are seen by others, so lead by example. Make the environment what you need to do your job well.

Roll with the Punches and Ride the Wave.
The affiliate space is a very tumultuous one as we all know. With campaign restrictions becoming more prevalent to our business and budgets becoming more slim it can be a rollercoaster ride.
We have a little joke in our office to “ride the wave”, meaning when times are good, budgets are open and new offers are plentiful to enjoy it but always be prepared for a storm on the horizon.
One little change can affect you and your book of business so it's always important to be able to adapt to these changes and not let them drown you, just paddle up and focus on the next big one! ;)

Managing your energy is a lot more important than managing your time.
Long days at work, checking your emails frequently or even engaging in arguments with your co-workers will drain your energy.
Take more
breaks, engage in collaborative projects and always make sure you
spread a positive attitude around you.
It will come back at you, and
that's exactly what you need to be more effective.

Motivation is key when working remote.
There are a lot of distractions and you must stay motivated.
It's ok to take a break every once in a while as long as you have that end goal in mind.
Make sure to list your goals for the month on a white board or something, so they are in your face all the time telling you what you need to be doing and how close you are to your goal!

Always be aware of your internal fraud detector... your brain!
When something doesn't seem proper, you should always trust your instincts and look further into a situation.
It is easy to see what you want to see but not always easy to see what is clear coated in front of you.

Get yourself in counseling.
Regardless if you think all is well with your head. If you think you are a great person and everybody likes you, then you probably are in denial.
Counseling is always a good thing. It keeps your ego bubble popped.
