Passion, passion and passion. Why? Because with passion comes, the willingness for persistence, research and hard work, despite what the overall results are. This is true for every business not just online gambling affiliates.
It can be pretty discouraging to put 12 hours of work each day for over 6 months for example and see no results. The only thing that will make you keep going is the love for the subject. That’s why people that give up I guess are the ones that are in it for the money entirely.
#8: You’re Hiring Employees – not always the case. Depends on how much capital you have at the start, you can afford content writers etc from the very beginning.
I’d add 1 more #11 exceptional knowledge in your field. If you can’t convince yourself that you know enough about casinos for example, how on earth are you going to convince your readers? I know that all good affiliate stay up to date, about which landing pages/banners perform best etc.
What worked today, might not work tomorrow and vice-versa.
Bottom line, let me tell you a little story from the past. There was this company in the US that spent close to 9 million on a research, trying to find what’s the difference between their successful employees and those that were not.
The end result was pretty shocking and all of those money seemed like wasted. The main and only difference, was that the people who were good at their job, believed they are good and also believed that they did their job well.
The rest, the rest believed they sucked at what they do, and therefore their results sucked as well. Therefore failure attitude will bring failure, and the opposite must be true as well.
It’s a common misconception to think “My results are horrible, therefore I fail” when the truth is “Because I posses the failure attitude, I see no results”.
