Affiliate Marketing is about Relationships says Noah Kagan [INFOGRAPHIC]
It’s unfortunate that I have to fly to Las Vegas to catch fellow Austinite Noah Kagan. However, I was glad to have caught his keynote at Affiliate Summit West 2015.
Mainly because he gave everyone in the audience $10. Real money.
Is he so desperate for attention that he has to buy an audience with cash? Maybe. But his little stunt was really to make a point. His question is, “Are your relationships in black and white, or full color?”
I captured the highlights of his presentation in this instagraph infographic drawn in real time. Share it with someone.

Thank you for coming to Affiliate Summit, love your drawing synopsis of Noah’s talk. We hope to see you in NYC in August.
We expect to be there. Speaking, hopefully.
There are some people who just like your brand and don’t buy from you they can also come in the category of affiliate marketing and promote your brand
An interesting idea. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing the graphic looks really good how long did it take to make?
I drew it live while Noah spoke, then spent about 20 minutes cleaning it up and creating the image. I use OneNote, part of Microsoft Office to do the drawing.
