AWESOME BLOG POST: Should I take out a loan to do affiliate marketing?

There is an awesome blog post by Malan Darras on the age old question, "Should I Take Out A Loan To Do Affiliate Marketing?"

It should be required reading for anyone who has ever asked this question.

Full post here: http://www.malandarras.com/businessloan


"Affiliate marketing takes patience. And if you’re willing to go into the hole financially just so you can start “NOW” you’re probably not going to have the patience to make your campaigns work.

This isn’t a game you jump into head first and start making money right away.

Your first several months, or even years will be spent toiling away while you learn the basics and make mistakes.

Keep in mind:

  • I worked 10 hours a day for three months before I made my first sale for $28.
  • Then I spent two years doing SEO making a few grand a month at most.
  • Then, I learned about paid traffic and lost money every day for a month before I saw my first day of profit.
  • Don’t get caught up in the mentality that you’re going to somehow take a $50,000 loan and turn it into $1 Million overnight.

That’s a sucker’s dream. And will leave you disappointed, upset and depressed."
