My wife and I watched a very inspirational movie this past Saturday night that had a profound effect on me.
The movie, “Fireproof”, was a Christian-based flick that involved a husband taking specific actions over the course of 40 days to rebuild his marriage.
While my wife and I agree that our marriage is solid, and regardless of the religious theme that you may or may not agree with…
I couldn’t help but be moved by this film, and more importantly for you, it got me thinking about how I haven’t been doing enough for my OWN affiliates and JV partners to keep my relationship with them as strong as can be.
Therefore… not only am I going to resume taking specific actions a lot more frequently to create better relations with my own affiliates…
I’m also going to share with you 40 different ways to motivate your OWN affiliates to take more consistent action for you over the course of the next couple weeks… which all it really comes down to is building your RELATIONSHIP with them.
I may give you a list of ways, or I may just pepper in an idea or two throughout each of the emails I send out to you. Haven’t decided, yet.
Point is… let’s all make a commitment to simply do the LITTLE THINGS that really make a BIG impact with our affiliates.
THAT’S how you get them to keep promoting your products and services month after month!
Here are a few ideas for you today…
1) Create daily, weekly, or bi-weekly JV blog posts.
2) Recognize your affiliates on your JV blog.
3) Call random affiliates just to thank them.
4) Have monthly contests.
5) Give surprise bonuses.
I guess that’s a good start. I’ll share more in upcoming emails.

P.S. I’m still preparing my response to the “$1,997 Product Launches Suck” email I sent out a few days ago. It’s going to be good. 
P.S.S. If you haven’t seen “Fireproof”, and you DO want to grow closer to your spouse, I highly recommend that you check out that movie, regardless of your religious affiliation.

Hi Andy
Maybe have to start with a negative in that I have not really been reading your e mails, not sure why, I think because I associated you with high dollar product launches and the belief online that people have bottomless credit cards just waiting to be drained
Anyway having read through your post I’m pleased I did and I will certainly pay more attention in the future
Thanks for sharing Tony
Hi Tony… thanks for the kind words and for reading this particular email. One thing I take great pride in is putting a lot of thought – and usually TIME – into every email I send to my subscribers, because I sincerely want to HELP… not just slam people with product offer after product offer. As for the “high dollar product launches” and “bottomless credit cards”, I’ll be addressing that stuff in an upcoming report.
