Introducing: "Ask The Experts" Series!

We have a treat for all of you today!
Want to ask world experts your questions on buying psychology, copywriting and more?
And have them answer you, personally, in an interview?
Well, that's the latest thing that STM and AWC (Affiliate World Conferences) are bringing you!
Yes, we're very proud to announce the latest new feature on STM: the Ask The Expert series.
But what experts in affiliate marketing can we bring in that you can't already ask questions just by PMing them on STM? Aha - that's the secret. We're going above and beyond just the affiliate world here.
Read on to learn more.
Our First Interviewees on Ask The Expert: Dan Ariely and Drew Whitman

Dan Ariely is the New York Times bestselling author of Predictably Irrational and The Upside Of Irrationality.
He's a professor of behavioural economics (aka "why we spend our money as we do") at Duke University, and a repeat speaker at TED, where his talks have been watched more than 7 million times.
If you want to know:
- Why people react in the ways they do to ads, offers, or choices in general
- what will make a person more or less likely to make a decision
- what factors influence us beyond logic when we're considering how and where to spend
- anything else related to how the human mind processes business, money, offers and advertising
he's possibly the best person in the world to ask.
And you can ask him questions RIGHT NOW - read on to find out how.
Drew Whitman, aka "Dr Direct", is the author of Ca$hvertising, STM's absolute top recommended book on copywriting.
He started writing copy for direct-marketing catalogues at the age of 11 (!), and then went on to a 30-year career in the advertising industry.
He has consulted on advertising creation for the American Automobile Association, the American Medical Association, Union Fidelity Life Insurance, and many others.
If you want to know:
- How to make your copy more powerful
- Dirty tricks of the direct marketing world
- How NLP (Neuro-Lingustic Programming) can be applied to marketing and advertising
- What the weakest links are in your ads and how to fix them
Then get your questions in to Drew NOW - read on to find out how!
How the Ask The Expert series will work
We're starting up threads
right now where you can submit a question to each of our Ask The Experts interviewees.
Just go to the thread, and post your questions.
If you see other peoples' questions that you'd like answered, hit "thanks" to cast your vote for that question.
The STM and AMC staff will review those threads and pick the top questions. We'll then send our interviewer out to interview the experts in person with the list of
your questions, and the answers will pop up on STM in a few weeks!
Go To Dan's Questions Thread
Go To Drew's Questions Thread
Get submitting your questions now!
Super-exciting times! If you've got any questions or comments on the Ask The Experts series as a whole, post 'em below! But if you have a question you want to ask, post it in the appropriate questions thread - we'll only be selecting questions from there!

OMG! This is freaking awesome!
The book Ca$vertising has never left my desk for years ...

Yeah, this is going to be incredible.
I have no idea how many people I've recommended Ca$hvertising to over the years, but it's... a lot.
And Dan Ariely's stuff is very cool and very useful. I first ran into his writing on Tim Ferriss's site - he's the guy who popularised the concept of "ego depletion" (which if you haven't read into, I'd recommend - http://fourhourworkweek.com/2012/08/...ego-depletion/ ).

The last questions for both Experts were posted in June 2015 and so far there are no answers.
The idea to "Ask The Experts" is really nice but only makes sense when the Experts will answer then.
So any update on this?
