You might laugh at me and that’s okay! The story goes like this just as soon as we get a little disclaimer out of the way:

Disclaimer

This blog post contains a affiliate link at no extra cost to you. I make a small commission on a completed sale. Thankyou in advance.

Yesterday I woke up and doing my usual morning routine. All ready to check things off the ta do list. Here I am already to give my relatives the run down for the day only to discover I have zero internet. I fussed till noon before I couldn’t take it no more. Pull stuff out and unplug stuff. Replug stuff and rearrange where it’s plugged in. Nothin! Okay so it’s not me and it’s not on my end. Mind you this was one of the reasons I upgraded 20+ year old equipment. So maybe I should have just kept the old equipment. By noon, I decided that I’m calling the phone company and all I got was a busy signal. Call two, call three, call four all busy signal. By 8:00pm I had enough and just went to bed. Telling myself I’m gonna call that phone company one more time when I get up the next day. Morning rolls around and I do my usual routine. Wait for the spouse to leave so I can make that phone call. (I don’t want him here to hear what I have to say). Get him out the door and he leaves the drive way. I’m ready. Dial the phone….Ooooo I got thru, oh but wait… I get to talk to the computer and it ensures me it can help me. Great! In the mean time I want to give some body a piece of my mind of this injustice, especially after the cost of the new upgrade. That silly computer system deflated my balloon real fast and it (autonomous) didn’t help at all. At this point, I gave up altogether. Decided that if it wasn’t my new equipment and it periodically comes on and goes off. I wasn’t going to worry to much about it except I do have my peeps and bills that need to be addressed. Here I am the third day, spastic internet. I decided to check to see what I can do on word press in between this irratic internet. Oooooo lookie here I see notifications and can read a bit. Ohhh and look at this. I can write a much needed blog post. Late. But at least I’m getn’r done. Oh! Wait! Can’t post it until the internet comes back on. Ugh! I really need to give that phone company a call to see if I can get a discount for at least not having internet for this long. Maybe tomorrow they will get called again.

Go ahead and laugh. I will laugh too can’t help but laugh. It’s times like these that one doesn’t realize how much one depends on the internet. I use to do a lot of things old school but times have changed so much that this is no longer sustainable. So it’s really distressing when my internet goes down for two days let alone three.

I truly feel for any folks out there that have lost there internet too. Never mind the fact that one can’t run an online business without it.

Marketing

As you can image that running a small business is incredibly hard without internet but finding the right marketing strategy is just as hard. Small business depend on finding the right marketing strategy to grow bigger. Even medium to large businesses use some form of Marketing.

Affiliate Marketing

I’m not here to explain all the in’s and out’s of affiliate marketing but one thing is for certain. You can be sure that my very tiny business can not grow with out it. My tiny business is highly dependent on affiliate links from affiliate markets or businesses that offer affiliate’s. I have learned so far that there is a lot of hard work that goes into making sure that the disclaimer is put in the right place to making sure the link works. I want to be sure that nothing goes wrong. Affiliate links are the bread and butter that makes my world go round and round. They give me the much needed funds to pay for my internet to legal fee’s. With that said let me drop a link here for any larger business that are looking for affiliate marketing program:
