Happy Thanksgiving everyone! It's been another great year, and as we move into the affiliate marketing busy holiday season, where many eTailers earn 50% of their revenues, it makes sense to take a short pause and remember all the things we have to be thankful for. Here are some of the many things in the Industry that I am thankful for this year:

  1. The Affiliate Networks - I am thankful for the affiliate networks who have created platforms that enable affiliate marketers and merchants to quickly and easily start a business partnership at a click of the button, so that we can quickly test new programs and find the ones that are going to work best for our businesses. It would be hard to image the cost in time, legal fees and technology expenses needed create each and every one of these relationships on our own. Thank you Affiliate Networks!
  2. Google - I am thankful that Google has created platforms that enable affiliate marketers to make money. From Adwords, and Adsense, to Google Analytics and the now in beta website optimizer product, Google continues to innovate platforms that enable affiliate marketers to earn money for both ourselves and for Google in the process. Thanks Google!
  3. Affiliate Managers that "Get it!" - I am thankful for the many affiliate managers who truly take the time to understand the technologies and many different ways that affiliate marketers can promote their services, for the affiliate managers that truly understand that more is more in this industry and that less is less, and for the affiliate managers that understand and embrace the ongoing change that exists in this space. Thank you!
  4. Affiliate Marketers - I am thankful to my fellow affiliate marketers who I have gotten to know at industry conferences. It is truly a dynamic and fun group, and having worked in other industries, I can honestly say that the affiliate marketers that I have meet are some of the smartest, brightest, and most entrepreneurial people I have meet in any industry. I am honored to be part of this group. Thank you!
  5. Fun Holiday Logos - Finally, I am thankful for fun holiday logos, maybe someday we will actually see one from Microsoft....
