0:09.0	Hey, what's up, everybody, Pafflin here, and welcome to episode 577 of Ask Pat.
0:15.0	Thank you so much for joining me today.
0:17.0	All right, here's today's question from Janet.
0:20.0	Hi, Pat.
0:23.8	This is Janet Kennedy with the Get Social Health podcast.
0:30.6	I'd like to say thank you so much for all the great content that you've been putting out in the past couple of weeks about affiliates,

0:49.9	to push out with my specific link, my affiliate link. I don't know how that happens and I'd love to know
0:55.5	that. Also, do you keep track of your affiliates in a special way? How do you know where leads come from
1:03.4	and how to pay out to your affiliates? And okay, one more, if you don't mind, do you have a special
1:09.6	agreement with your affiliates?
1:11.1	Or if they opt in, I don't remember reading an agreement because I obviously love the people I do affiliate work with.

1:19.2	I'd appreciate any help you can give me on this topic.
1:22.4	Thanks for all the great content, Pat.
1:24.5	You're a real inspiration.
1:26.6	Hey, Janet, thank you so much for the question today
