Hustle Hack #21: Is it Worth Promoting?
How to Test If an Affiliate Product Is Actually Worth Promoting Not every affiliate product deserves your time. Before you promote, run it through this test: 1️⃣ Would I use this myself?

Hustle Hack #20: Build vs Rent (your traffic)
The Importance of Building Your Own Audience vs. Renting Traffic Borrowed traffic is risky. All those followers on social? Borrowed. All DMs and people who purchase via those apps? Borrowed.

Hustle Hacks #17: Fewer Products = More Money
Why Recommending Fewer Products Often Earns More Money It feels logical: the more products you recommend, the more money you’ll make. But in affiliate marketing, the opposite is true. What?

Hustle Hack #15: The 3-Click Rule

Hustle Hack #14: Physical vs Digital Promotions
The Difference Between Promoting Physical vs. Digital Products (and Which Pays Better) Affiliate marketing comes in two flavors: physical products and digital products. Both can work – but they pay very differently. Physical products (like kitchen tools, planners, or supplements) are easier to recommend because they’re tangible. People already buy them every day. But commissions…
Hustle Hack #13: People Buy Stories
People Buy Stories, Not Stats Think about it-what’s more persuasive? ❌ “This planner increased productivity by 35%.”✅ “This planner helped me juggle kids, work, and my side hustle without losing my mind.” Stories feel like a connection.
