Affiliate Marketers Become Mobile MarketersAffiliate marketers are getting hot under the collar about mobile marketing profits. And I’m becoming concerned about Internet marketers affiliates moving into “mobile marketing without proper training.
In many cases, those promoting courses and the “secrets” of the practice fall victim to lack of best practices and, sometimes, breaking the law.
The CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 forbids sending text messages to a cell phone without the owner’s permission. I wonder how many affiliate marketers ever heard of the legislation let alone understand the restrictions.
Some might argue that the carriers have too much control over SMS text marketing, short codes and other money-making opportunities. Recently, T-Mobile shut down a texting company whose client was sending messages about the legal use of marijuana in California.
Affiliate Marketers Big and Small
Large companies, like Google and Apple, have entered the mobile marketing and advertising industries. It’s no wonder that Internet marketers and their affiliates would jump at the potential profits.

However, along with profit potential comes responsibility. And affiliate marketers have yet to prove their understanding of laws and industry best practices.
