Affiliate Marketing, Leadership, and a Commodore 64 with Richard Dennys
Listen now
Description
Today's conversation is with Richard Denny's, CEO of Webgains. I learned that Richard and I share a ton. From our first computers (both Commodores) to hours spent coding very simple programs in basic, to our desire to lift people up through education and training. I think Richard's bio on LinkedIn says it all "Still a proud owner of a Sinclair ZX81 and Spectrum, used to copy out pages of BASIC code for RPGs from magazines into my Commodore 64 in the 1980s, went to University, taught myself HTML and started one of the world's largest websites in the 1990s, founded then folded an online travel start-up (before that was a word) in the 2000s, helped to accelerate other start-ups and teach start-up founders in the 2010s and now in the 2020s proudly run Webgains. Work Hard; Be Kind; Have Fun. That's it really."We discussed a broad range of topics, including:His origin story into affiliate marketingNerding out on dataThe impact of investment in affiliate marketingChanges in the affiliate channelThe change he saw that led him to embrace the channel after previously rejecting itBig Media and Affiliate MarketingLeading through turbulence and the 3 HorizonsI thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and there really is something for everyone here.If you'd like to find more about Webgains, check out their website.
