If you’re running an affiliate launch or affiliate program and you need a way to drive more sales without doing a costly leaderboard contest, I have the solution.

Today, I share a better way to reward your affiliates for more sales.
Recently, I got an email from a subscriber who asked what criteria I had for what should be in place to ensure that her first product launch would be successful.

However, in this video, I respond to her question and share what she SHOULD do to maximize her chances of success.
In the fall of 2017, my team and I participated in Marisa Murgatroyd’s Experience Product Masterclass affiliate launch.

After the launch, Mark Sieverkropp, from my team, caught up with Marisa to do a case study of her ultra-successful launch. You can watch that interview below.
