If consistency and self-esteem could be best buds that would be great! I post on all those social media platforms then go back and delete it when it doesn't get engagement. lol

Yes. I have been dabbling with affiliate marketing on Pinterest since maybe 2018-ish.

I’m sure I’ve written about that somewhere. haha

At peak, I was making about $100 per month from eBay Partner Network using an automated system. It was literally hands off. Set it up one time and let it run.

Some of the platforms I was using made changes and while I can still automate the process, it’s costs about $25 per month to do so, and I’m not making enough to justify that cost.

Grant it, EPN isn’t the most lucrative affiliate program I could be using.

I don’t mind doing the work manually, but I need it to be worth my time in the meantime. So, I’m testing some other options.

I’ve tried Gumroad, I don’t really like it because there’s no built-in audience. Perhaps I’m missing something. I should try creating some products, listing them, and sharing the links.

My roadblock is time. I don’t want to waste time on things that get me nowhere anymore, but at the same time I know I have to take those risks to find what works.

It’s a crippling cycle that my mind goes through.
