Thinking Big and the PAP Radio Show

April 26, 2008 in Business

It’s been a few weeks since I’ve been able to update. The past few weeks have almost been a blur. I took a vacation form my full time job, mainly to work on my network of website which is at 11 sites right now. I had someone say to me the other day “11 websites? I understand 3-4 but 11 seems extreme”. My response was simple and makes perfect sense to me. So I told the guy “It’s easier to make $100 ten times, than $1000 once”. I can’t claim this quote as my own, but there is a ton of truth to it.

So, I’ve spent the last week working on my existing websites which at the start of the week was only 9, but by the middle of the week I acquired Stacks Back.com and my designer finished Poker Affiliate Team.com. I have never bought a website, and I had to do some dealing to get Stacksback, but luckily the previous owner is a great guy and worked it out with me. The Poker Affiliate Team site has been a dream of mine for the past year. Since I’ve been doing some sort of internet marketing for the last 3-4 years, I think I have a lot of great tips and tools new affiliates will find useful. I only wish someone had taken me by the hand years ago.

The PAP Radio Show

My good buddy Jeremy Enke has started a new Poker Affiliate Radio show and asked me to be the first guest on the show. Here is the link to my interview. I was very flattered to be asked and very excited to be on there. The Poker Affiliate industry is a very different business than any other I’ve ever dealt with. It is always changing and if you don’t keep up, you’ll be outdated and out of business.

Another buddy of mine John H was the next guest on the Radio show and he talked about starting out as an affiliate and the things he learned along the way to becoming a major player in the business. Greg Powell came on next to talk about some behind the scenes things well as the upcoming conference. He gave some great tips about negotiating with your affiliate managers. I recommend everyone listen to the pod cast as soon as it is posted to hear some of the stuff Greg talked about.

Anyway, I’m going back to work now. I’ll post more later.
