Framework
TAE is a simple concept.

So simple that many people will discount the idea.

Which is perfect, when you think about it. Less people competing for the
same commissions is ne by me.

TAE is a “workhorse” method for getting paid a commission for referring

people to a product or service (as an af liate).

Before I start: Whenever I say product, I’m referring to the concept of

exchanging value for money. Product can be a widget or a SaaS service. It
can be something that costs a single dollar amount, or a subscription that’s
charged monthly or yearly. It can be physical or digital. I’m going to lump
all of these together when I refer to, PRODUCT, okay?

Framework:

1. Promote (endorse) a PRODUCT that is in DEMAND; meaning

people are actively seeking it out (it solves a problem or need they

have). They don’t need to be seeking the SPECIFIC product per se,
just the “category” in which the product exists.

2. Create a high-value exclusive bonus that ENHANCES the product,

then use the bonus as LEVERAGE to incentivize people to make a
purchase they were going to make anyway, through your link.

3. PROMOTION.

4. Different ways to BUILD a TAE.

5. The BACKEND.

That’s it.

Simple, right?

It is.

However: The devil is in the details tho; the nuances.

This may be a simple work ow, but that doesn’t mean earning
commissions long-term is easy business. If it where easy, make no
mistake, everyone would be doing this.

TAE was born out of how I learned to operate when I was a full-time
af liate between 2004 and 2009 competing with the big dogs. I chose not
to play their game and compete head-on with them (which would have
been dumb).

I developed a smarter way to enter their markets and take food from their
mouths (think: Blue Ocean Strategy for af liate marketing, but I’ll get to this
next).

It’s something I got very good at (multiple 6- gures a year purely from
af liate commissions; most of it completely automated).

Those ideas and concepts, which I later codi ed into ARM and SOI, were
born from creating TAEs.

Caveat
This is NOT … read, this is NOT a how-to-make-money-from-nothing-
system! TAE is not a business opportunity.

You need to *already* have an audience you serve (with an email list). TAE
is a “multiplier” to what you are already doing. It’s a revenue add-on. It’s
adding eggs to your basket. It’s not a business model.

This part is important because TAE is meant to align your marketing

efforts around a business model that’s already in place and established
and working for you.

TAE will allow you to diversify your income really easily with very little
ongoing effort (maintenance). Once setup, it’ll run like a cog in a system.
But that system needs to be in place FIRST.

TAE isn’t “the system.” It’s a cog. A part of a greater whole.

With me?

Okay, let’s get to it.
