AM suggestion
Linda,
Thanks for the advice. Well taken! I think you helped me articulate more of what i meant -- that being an independent AM might be a better route for me than being an affiliate. But... I've been in marketing and writing for 20 years having done work for large and small companies (including a columnist stint at the Wall Street Journal and other large dailies). Specifically I've worked helping companies get online and into forums and communities and connected online since 1994. A lot of my work has been online research and i'll keep my eyes open for new technologies and services to help our community.
I feel like i have the experience for either -- i'm just needing to understand the new online landscape that has developed the last 3 years while i was off in another industry and not as connected. I think the affiliate side appeals far more, but most of my connections/contacts are business owners and executives who are trying to figure out things like the blogosphere, affiliate marketing, etc. Therefore i thought i might be able to earn income faster doing AM work on an independent basis for small merchants and larger companies seeking to build a presence.
Thank you again for creating the best forum out there. I've had a lot of cool interactions in just a short amount of time as a new member. I'll be active!
TJM
