When I started Cooperative Affiliates Inc., I sold shares of stock to investors and used that capitol to get things rolling. This was just as much an experiment as it was anything else.

I am happy to announce that as of August 31, 2007, I am the sole stockholder of Cooperative Affiliates. All shares were purchased back and my investors enjoyed a very real 37% + gain on their money in less than a year’s time. This made me happy to see that this model can work in the affiliate environment. It also made me happy to cut those checks because the people I cut them to trusted in me and were well rewarded for their contribution.

Here’s to the future of Affiliate Marketing and online commerce in general.
