 💬 Affiliate marketing changed the way I think about money — and I started with zero capital. If you're in Ghana and want to make real income online, here's what I wish someone told me earlier.


💡 What is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is when you promote a product or service using a special link.
When someone clicks and buys — you earn a commission.
