Affiliate Income
Definition
Revenue earned by promoting other people's products and receiving a commission when your audience makes a purchase through your unique link.
Why it matters
Affiliate income is one of the most accessible passive income streams for creators. Recommending tools you genuinely use earns commission without creating new products.
Example
A business coach recommends Xero accounting software with her affiliate link. She earns £75 per new sign-up. With 5 sign-ups per month, she earns £375 with no extra effort.
