My guest today is Brian Littleton, one of the sharpest and most humble online marketers that I know. He is the CEO of ShareASale, a Chicago-based provider of e-commerce tracking and affiliate management solutions.

Brian is known for being a crusader of fair affiliate practices for many years; he’ll tickle the ivories to entertain friends and business associates on command; and has to be one of the top ten most eligible bachelors in the affiliate marketing industry.

In this podcast, Brian talks about:

  • What he was doing before he founded ShareASale and how he came up with the idea for the company.
  • Some of the hurdles he’s had to overcome as the company grew.
  • Protecting the rights of affiliates and merchants alike, even if it means walking business.
  • Affiliate Marketing trends and tips for new folks getting into the industry.
  • Where he sees ShareASale heading in the future.
  • Affiliate marketing’s biggest problems today.
  • What he would be doing if he wasn’t doing what he’s doing now :)
  • The song that he wish he’d never have to play on the piano again.
  • … and so many other juicy tidbits about him…

    If you’re an affiliate who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, HTML, or CSS, Thesis will give you a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via extensive hooks and filters. And with so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site.

    Those of you who are “in between,” like myself, can use the fantastic Thesis User’s Guide and world-class support forums to make more professional customizations than you ever thought possible. The theme is not only highly customizable, but it allows me to build sites with a much more targeted focus on monetization than ever before. You can find out more about Thesis below:

    You've described him well… Honest, hard working, humble… I'd say those are great qualities for an eligible bachelor in our industry :)
