  1. I find this article really helpful and relatable. Starting out in affiliate marketing does feel pretty overwhelming, especially trying to write content and promote products at the same time. I like that the article promises practical, easy-to-follow ways to use ChatGPT. It sounds like something that could actually save me time and help me get better results without feeling lost. And it really did with the 12 steps!

  2. AI is truly a lifesaver, but I must admit that I am hopelessly underusing it if I read in this article all the things that you use it for. I haven’t tried upgrading old articles yet, so I am definitely going to experiment with that one.

    I would also like to explore using video scripts and adding chat bots to your site. I would think you would need specialized software in order to do this if you cannot program.

    1. Great insights, Michel! 

      You’re absolutely right. AI is a powerful tool that can do so much more than we often realize. 

      Upgrading old articles is a smart way to boost your site’s performance, and using ChatGPT for video scripts or chatbots is a game-changer, especially for beginners. 

      The best part is, you don’t need to be a tech expert. Many tools now make it super easy to implement these strategies without coding. Definitely worth experimenting with to grow your affiliate sales!

      Paul.
