The person behind the brand
A Little About Me.
Hi, I’m Michelle, the person behind Affiliate Action Today! And my journey towards building an online business hasn’t exactly been a straight line. In fact, it’s been anything but!
I’ve Always Had Ideas...
I’ve always been someone with interests, ideas and things I wanted to explore. Growing up, I had plenty of ideas, but then came teenage life, boys, parties and all the other distractions that somehow seemed much more important at the time!
Later came adulthood, motherhood and all the responsibilities that come with it. My own ideas and ambitions often found themselves pushed to the side.
25 Years of Starting, Stopping and Starting Again
I’ve been dipping in and out of affiliate marketing for around 25 years. I’ve opened accounts on countless platforms, tried different approaches, explored opportunities and jumped from one thing to another.
I’ve even earned a little money along the way, particularly during periods when I managed to focus and take consistent action. But I’ve never quite managed to turn it into the business I hoped to build.
Looking back, I understand a little more about why. I was eventually diagnosed with ADHD after experiencing a stroke, although many of the behaviours and struggles with focus had been part of my life long before that diagnosis.
Life Doesn’t Always Go to Plan
The stroke also changed me in other ways. Some of the ideas and creativity that once came so naturally don’t come as easily anymore. I still have ideas, but they’re different now, and I’ve had to find new ways of approaching things.
It has also made me look at life differently. Time, priorities and what I want to accomplish have taken on a different meaning.
Why I Started Affiliate Action Today
I know what it’s like to get excited about a new opportunity, spend hours researching, sign up for another platform, start another project and then find yourself somewhere completely different a few weeks later.
I know what it’s like to have so much information that you end up doing very little with it.
I want to help people who recognise themselves in that pattern. Whether you have ADHD, struggle with focus, suffer from information overload or simply don’t know where to begin, I want to make the process of starting an online business less overwhelming.
I’m not going to pretend I’ve made a fortune from affiliate marketing or that I have all the answers. I’m still building, learning and figuring things out myself.
But perhaps that’s exactly why I understand the importance of having a clear direction and a practical plan.
You don’t need another hundred ideas, another dozen accounts or another endless collection of tutorials. You need somewhere to start, something to focus on and a way to keep moving forward.
Less Wandering. Less Overwhelm.
More Focus. More Action.
One step at a time. One action at a time.
