Lisa Picarille, Jim Kukral (Kurkal), Shawn Collins and Sam Harrelson were joined by Jason Calacanis for a 45 min long conversation about how Mahalo should incorporate affiliate and performance marketing monetization techniques. The conversation became a workshop applicable to any business looking to monetize content through the affiliate channel and has a high amount of practical value (as well as the normal ratholes and humor).

Jason also makes a startling announcement on the show regarding his first affiliate earnings…

Here are the particular pages we discussed:

Lisa Guerrero on Mahalo
Windows on an eee
Super Smash Bros Brawl on Mahalo
Debt Consolidation on Mahalo

Is that a Commission Junction check in Jason’s hand?

Webhosting pays some great commissions. ;) I am not sure if Jason has any web hosting related pages. But he may be able to build some.

Blue Nile is at Linkshare, not CJ.

As far as the reach of affiliate marketing, I’ve posted this a few times at various places:

America’s Top Ten Retail Businesses

9 out of the top 10 have affiliate programs. If you go thru the rest of the list, most of the rest have programs also.
