Affiliate marketing is a great way to build a second income. Once you are earning more than your day job it will be time to quit and become a full-time affiliate marketer. This WILL take time and dedication but is 100% possible.
There are plenty of blog posts and Youtube videos explaining how to get started with affiliate marketing, but when you want to start making serious money, you will have to invest in a decent affiliate marketing course to get the ‘insider knowledge’.

Most good courses will give you templates and roadmaps to follow, which can save you thousands of dollars and man-hours testing and experimenting.
Here are a few affiliate marketing courses produced by successful affiliate marketers that are well worth taking.
