I was reflecting on our biggest affiliate marketing successes right before I recorded this and it all came down to one thing: A PLAN!

It’s the site of the top affiliates getaway with Michael Hyatt, Jeff Walker, and Pat Flynn…and me.

Here’s the crazy part: due to bad planning on my part, I was completely unprepared for the launch, including the fact that I’m super busy right now. But I still wanted to let my tribe know about F2F.

Don’t let anyone tell you they don’t have time to make a difference.
