Ben: Hey everybody! Welcome to Hack That Funnel Radio. Thanks for being here today! We have a special interview with one of the best affiliate marketers in the ClickFunnels community and other communities around. Today’s episode is something really, really cool. We’ve got somebody on who has made $1 million as a ClickFunnels affiliate. Now he’s promoted click funnels, he’s promoted an active campaign, he runs a lot of different products, but he’s made $1 million in that. And so I want to introduce him to you. His name is Spencer Mecham. Ben:                          Why don’t you tell us a little bit about yourself? Why did you even get started in this marketing game? Like a lot of people are in the game and they’d been going for forever and they’re not making any money. What got you started and then what turned you on to affiliate? Spencer:                Ah, yes. I have a great email sequence that explains all this. I’ve written down this story so I don’t forget it.  It all began in Hawaii. Me and my wife were huge Hawaii fans. We love to go there as often and as long as possible. At one point when I was in college, we moved there for, for probably six months. We actually moved in with her parents because they were living there for six months at the time too.                                     It was like this random, crazy thing. They were like, Hey, we’ve got an extra room. And we were like, ah, it’s amazing. We’ve got two extra bodies that can fit in that room. And so we moved in and the goal was to move in and then I’ll get a job and we’ll kind of go from there and then we’ll move out after a month or something. But it was the hardest thing on planet earth to get a job. I’ve never had an issue getting a job, you know, it was crazy. I’d go in and I’d go to apply it like every, like the lowest, most menial tasks I could possibly find anything and nothing. I couldn’t get one interview the whole time I was there. So it was this crazy hard, for a variety of reasons.                                     And so I can actually remember sitting at home and I’m as bummed as can be. I’m like, I can’t even get a job like working as a grocery bagger, I can’t get it down to anywhere. And that’s why I started searching. That’s when like I started searching everywhere online, how do you make money, not in physical locations. And so the first way I made money on my own was- have you ever heard of Mechanical Turks? No? So Amazon has this little teeny thing where entrepreneurs like us go out and they have like these really menial tasks, like crazy, menial. They’ll say like, Hey, I’ll pay you a penny each time you like go into this data sheet and like, you know, select these things and do this. I’ll give you one penny.                                     Right? And you’ll just do it over and over and over and over again. And by the penny you’re making money. And so I was, I can’t remember all the tasks I was doing, what they were seriously like 10 cent, 30 cent, 50 cent tasks where I like take surveys, things like that. So that’s what I was doing because I had nothing else to do. Everybody else was at school or work. My wife was interning at the local preschool. So just me home alone, sitting on the computer, feeling bad. I said, Hey, at least I’m making money. I did that for three weeks. I’m just like, I’m making like 80 bucks a week doing and I’m working, I’m doing stuff once a week much for like five hours a day on your computer, clicking.                                     I also realized I had zero skills to bring to the table though as well. So anyway, I did that for a while and that kind of brought me into the mindset of, okay, now I’m going to Google. Like, how do I make more than like 7 cents an hour online, you know, and eventually I get into the stock market. That leads me to the stock market for a year and the stock market is the way I’m going to make money. I start losing a bunch of money there. That led me into- okay, th
