Thanks Will,

I think you have some fascinating stories - please keep writing, and not just in the comments!




Thank you very much. There is so much more to tell, the FTC SWAT raids, the cocaine addled pornographers, the Israelis and Oprah's lawsuit against 500 affiliates.

I was smart, ethical and scared enough to see the hammer coming down on the industry and stayed out of all that mess, but I had a front row seat to the whole thing.

If this weren't the affiliate marketing industry we're talking about, I would have thought that you were a pathological liar, the kind who makes up tall stories! :-)

You should write a book.


You would have to be a complete idiot to not see the hammer coming down on diet. Especially with those blog sites and use of oprah/dr oz/rachel ray without permission. The people profiting from it knew but took their chances. Some of them ended up paying the hard way like Jeremy Johnson.
