Making Sense of Affiliate Marketing Review
Making Sense of Affiliate Marketing is Michelle Schroeder-Gardner's self-paced course for bloggers who want a structured affiliate strategy. The live public syllabus covers fundamentals, program selection, disclosures, conversion, promotion and maintenance through six modules, worksheets, bonuses and a private mastermind. The offer publishes current payment options and a 30-day refund FAQ. It appears legitimate, while mixed paid-access reviews make content depth and fit the main decision points.

1•2•3 Affiliate Marketing Review
1•2•3 Affiliate Marketing is Pat Flynn's course on earning affiliate income from an audience you already have, taught in three published steps: the rules of ethical affiliate marketing, choosing which products to recommend, then active and passive promotion. It is live as of 2026-08-13 but no longer sold on its own — the standalone Teachable listing now redirects away, and access comes with an SPI Community membership at $99/month or $990/year (a 50%-off coupon, SPI50, is printed on the page), which also unlocks twelve other SPI courses, Pat Flynn's and Liz Wilcox's office hours, monthly workshops and the forum. The membership page states a 7-day, no-questions-asked money-back guarantee. The two things to know before buying: the course teaches monetisation and not traffic — SPI itself says it suits people who already have "at least a small online presence" — and the seller publishes no testimonial for it, so the only learner ratings this research found are three "Verified Student" reviews on eBizFacts, the newest dated 18 January 2023.

Blog Growth Engine Review
Blog Growth Engine is Adam Enfroy's blogging and affiliate-marketing course, built around treating a blog like a startup and scaling backlinks through outreach. The seller publishes a ten-module syllabus, and the last documented release — version 4.0, on a sales page archived 23 May 2025 — carried 51 videos, 1-on-1 coaching, weekly group calls and a private link-exchange community for $997 one time. Its reviews page today lists twenty students, eighteen of them with a linked personal website, four of whom the seller discloses now work for BGE. Checked 2026-08-14, no seller page states a price, the course page's own enroll link returns HTTP 404, and the live terms condition the 14-day refund on completing the program, joining the community and taking a 1:1 coach call — stricter than the "No Questions Asked Guarantee" the 2025 sales page advertised.

Savage Affiliates Review
Savage Affiliates is an affiliate-marketing course sold today for $197 or $297 USD one-time, verified at its live checkout. It is a real product from a registered New Zealand company, but its content dates to 2019, its price has not moved since, and the community and weekly Q&A sessions it still charges for are reported by multiple independent reviewers to have been shut down — including in the refund policy, which requires joining that community before a refund will be granted.
Before you buy
What to check in this category
These are the checks our research applies to every course on this page. They are method, not claims about any named course — each review shows what we actually found.
- 01Ask which affiliate programs the curriculum actually teaches, and whether those programs are still open to new applicants today — a course built on a network that has since closed its doors teaches a route you cannot take.
- 02Separate the instructor's affiliate income from their course income. A creator earning most of their money selling the course is describing a different business than the one you are being sold.
- 03Check the refund window against the time it takes to complete module one. A 14-day guarantee on a course with a 30-day content drip cannot be exercised on the strength of the material.
