Young Affiliate Interview Challenge

This is an interview I conducted with the blogger at youngaffiliate.com, Paul Tizo, for the GatherSuccess Interview Challenges.

 

Me: Hey Paul. Thanks for doing the interview with me so lets get started right away. Tell us about yourself a little bit.

 

Paul: Thanks for having me Dino! First I started by joining forums and online news sites. They are the ones that truly opened my eyes to making money online and got me started with my site. After that, it was all about my site and doing numerous different affiliate programs and campaigns every day to get where I am.

 

Me: What was your motivation to do this?

 

Paul: Well my wife got sick, and I wasn’t making enough money offline, so I needed more money to pay for the hospital bills she was having. Once I saw the huge potential making money online had, I dove right in and never looked back.

 

Me: What was your biggest success?

 

Paul: The thing that made me the most money was creating affiliate campaigns and squeeze pages. I only just recently decided to open up a blog, so that’s the reason for that.

 

Me: On average, how much do you make per month?

 

Paul: I generate around $5,000 to $15,000 per month with affiliate marketing, and around $3,000 of that is thanks to my blog.

 

Me: What is your biggest goal?

 

Paul: To start hitting a couple more zeros next to my numbers per month. That would really be great and make my first million combined total.

 

Me: What’s your best advice to give?

 

Paul: Forums! I started on them and would definitely recommend anyone looking to make money online to read them. Not only them, but blogs and comment on them as well!

 

Me: What is your biggest fear?

 

Paul: Not having enough time to finish campaigns and losing everything I have started online. If google were to block me or someone big like that, it would definitely crush me.

 

Me: What are some of your favorite niches that you focus on?

 

Paul: I primarily do car insurance niches, since I’m an auto salesman offline, so I really know a lot about cars and fits perfectly with my style of selling.

 

Paul: Forums! I started on them and would definitely recommend anyone looking to make money online to read them. Not only them, but blogs and comment on them as well!

 

Me: What is your biggest setback that you had?

 

Paul: Some of the problems I faced was the lack of sleep, and paying taxes. I had so much trouble paying my taxes since I was completely organized and wasted a lot of time catching up which lost me a lot of money.

 

Me: Well that’s all I have for you, thanks for the interview Paul!

 

Paul: No problem Dino! Thanks for having me and good luck to your blog and your make money online ventures!

 

To your success!
