I recently had the opportunity to read green entrepreneur Murray Newlands carbon footprint reduction book, titled How to Save Money and the Environment, which is a thoughtful read full of great tips to save energy – both directly and indirectly – and consequently, save money. A quick and concise read, this book doesn’t necessarily cover affiliate marketing tricks of the trade, yet it covers something much more important. And for the properly motivated green affiliate, it offers inspiration that can be channeled into a number of profitable green ventures. Don’t forget – insight and knowledge can come in many forms.
One of the best resources for informative affiliate marketing tips is none other than other affiliates. Sure, there are some things the most successful affiliates may not be so inclined to talk about – i.e., tricks of the trade – but more often than not, affiliates are ever so willing to share insight and to collaborate as a means of fostering mutual success. In the fast-growing green sector, or Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS), mutual success and the sharing of knowledge has never been celebrated more.
This only makes sense, considering the nature of the industry itself – promoting the ideals of sustainability, health and wellness. Tie in the urgent need to save the environment, and you have an industry driven by something greater than itself – the need to make this world a better place. In Murray’s book, this is clearly the message being imparted.
Using the memorable catch phrase, “It’s easier to save money than make money”, Murray shows how simple habit changes can lead to hundreds of dollars in savings every month and thousands over the course of a year. Even better, these habit changes also help to save our planet Earth. As Murray points out, this begins with a recognition of one’s carbon footprint. After that, one can begin to change certain habits into a more efficient and productive way of doing things.
