Hey guys, yesterday we posted Episode 2 of the side hustle series. We talked about Max who started an Amazon Affiliate site marketing aquariums and fish tank supplies.

Judah asked what if someone like him who lives in Arkansas is not able to participate in the program. There are actually a handful of states which Amazon does not allow to join the affiliate program. 

Watch this video to learn why this stupid policy exists and how to get around it. Anyhow, in this video we address several solutions to this problem, why this policy exists in the first place, as well as how Amazon isn't the only, nor necessarily the best affiliate marketing option out there for you.

One option for getting around this is using a friend or relatives address in another state. If you don't have a friend or relative in another state you can use a mail forwarding service. There are many out there but I'll list one below if anyone is interested...

One last thing I may have neglected to mention in the video is if you do this in another state besides your own you may or may not owe income tax in another state at the end of the year but it's not a huge deal just file a return in that state in addition to your federal return and your home states return.

Feel free to drop a comment with any questions you may have about this or affiliate marketing in general.
