Hey guys, just a quick disclaimer. It’s been somewhere around end of 2009 when the FTC have made life a misery for some of my colleagues. Reason is that back then affiliates did not have to disclose that they were compensated for their referral.
So here it is. I am an affiliate! I get paid for referring stuff for good stuff I use and like. I won’t be selling much from this blog, because I have other sites and businesses that do that. But should I write about a tool or something on DanielWagner.com then I might get compensated.
Most of it will be random musings of life and business on the internet, latest ventures and joint ventures and tips and tricks from the top. Most of this is about helping people to get started or to get further along towards their goals – personal and business.
I am actually all for the FTC rulings, because you want to be transparent in what you do. So that is all. I don’t promote rubbish, I mostly use and test the stuff I recommend and I think that it is totally ok that I get paid for it – especially as it is all automated. As Jim Rohn used to say: ‘I take the money – I don’t need the money – but I take the money!’
One thing I don’t do is takes bribes or gifts to change my opinion about products or people. I don’t do that. I stick to the truth – it has served me well so far.
The bottom line is this, I do participate in affiliate marketing and I do blog. When I talk about a product, I often have a affiliate link attached to that product. When someone buys that product, I get paid. It’s that simple.
I bought my own share or junk along my journey and I am almost certain you will do the same – that is just how it works – but I would like my blog and my recommendations count towards the good stuff you use and buy and recommend.
anyway, I am rambling now. I am happy – with my life and what I do. So I hope the FTC is happy as well and that you are happy. If I can help you get there – then that is what I’d call a success.
To your success
Daniel Wagner
