Affiliate Marketers generate billions of dollars in business on the internet and beyond every year. The defacto conference that Affiliate Marketers attend is Affiliate Summit. The leaders and founders of Affiliate Summit are Shawn Collins and Missy Ward. Missy is passionate about making a difference and her passion has changed the nature of internet marketing for the good.
One example of this is her work running Affiliate Marketers Give Back, a charity that raises money for Breast Cancer research. StickerGiant was asked to make some stickers for this event, and we were flattered.
Missy Ward shows off her sticker.
More About Affiliate Marketers Give Back
AffiliateMarketersGiveBack.com (â€AMGBâ€) was founded in 2007 by Missy Ward, co-founder of Affiliate Summit, FeedFront Magazine and GeekCast.fm. Its goal is to raise money for to support Breast Cancer research, treatment, awareness and community programs through combined efforts within the Affiliate Marketing industry. In 2007, Team Affiliate Marketers Give Back was formed, (consisting only of Connie Berg of FlamingoWorld.com and Missy Ward) who raised $17,000 in a few short weeks by walking 60-miles in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3-day walk in Minnesota. In 2008, Team Affiliate Marketers Give Back set off on it’s 60-mile journey again, this time in Seattle. This time, Missy was joined by 10 affiliate marketers from around the globe (Jen Goode, Lisa Riolo, Adam Riemer, Tiffany Spaulding, Irene Spaulding, Jen Fluker, Debbie Banning, Karen Garcia, Laura Przybek and Angel Djambazov). Together, after twenty-eight team blisters and one fractured foot from a Twitter accident (Missy..), the team raised over $47,000.
