So real quick, one of the things that we recently just ran into, because we're all about creating passive income, and what's better than making income is making more of it.

And so one of the things I wanted to quickly talk about before we get into the main meat and potatoes of this video, or this podcast episode, I should say, say video all the time, because I'm so used to talking about video,

even though there is video for these podcasts now too, is that we right now have been going through the process of increasing our affiliate payouts.

Now, if you're not familiar with affiliates, it's where you work with companies and you get a certain payout after you hit a certain thing with that company, whether it's signing up a customer, having them download an app, sign up for our service, whatever the case may be.

And so we were getting paid out $75 every time somebody went through the entire process and signed up for the product, which is not an easy task to get somebody to complete this sign up because it is a little bit longer than just downloading an app and creating an account.
Yeah.

And so what we actually ended up doing was we were reaching out to a bunch of companies and saying, you know, with inflation having gone up and everything to like, hey, you know, what does it look like to bump up our income or the payouts? And we're typically looking for like 10, 20 percent increase because some of these companies I haven't asked for any increase in years and years.

So with this company, and this is just a great case study for why this is so effective for us.

And for somebody who has tons of content out there already that exists with this company that we're promoting this product with, or the service, I should say, what we did, the amount of time it took us to get to this... increase is going to serve us so well in the long term and this is why again in all of our shows we when we talk about like creating passive income and how it's really effective to create seo work with evergreen content like this is part of it right so we got back from we got word back from this company that they're going to increase our affiliate payout from 75 to $125.

That's that's a wildly more than what we were expecting originally, because we were going to go for like
100.
We're okay with 100, right?

But we did shoot for the moon at first, so we definitely went a little bit higher than we wanted to, so to speak.

And then we knew that if they were going to come back down, but effectively they they kind of met us where we originally
where the moon was
