What’s Inside the Affiliate Business Starter Kit?
A 13-page fillable PDF workbook and a web version of the same kit, plus an editable Word copy if you prefer typing long answers in Word. This is exactly what it contains:
Understand and Choose
Sections 1 to 3: honest expectations, how a commission moves from a sale to a payout (12 key terms and a fictional worked example), and a table for choosing your model: website, YouTube, email-first or social.
Check Your Niche and Programs
Sections 4 and 5: an 8-question niche quick check with a filled-in fictional example, and a terms card for comparing three affiliate programs before you join.
Plan Your First Month
Sections 6 to 8: a $0 path and a low-cost path for each tool job, with prices dated October 23, 2026, a one-page brief and a fill-in outline for your first page, the three answers program applications ask for, and a four-week plan for one traffic channel.
Stay on Track
Sections 9 to 11: the disclosure minimum, mistakes to skip, straight answers to beginner questions, and a 14-day starter plan that ends with a one-page summary of your decisions, shown beside a filled-in fictional example.
