Earlier today I was extremely honored to be named the Affiliate Manager of the Year at the Affiliate Summit Pinnacle Awards.
I was not at the awards ceremony (I was busy serving you here after all) but I did have one of our affiliates Joe Sousa notify me of the results and accept on my behalf on the off chance I won.
Well, I was incredibly surprised and honored by announcement that I won. I really don’t know what to say at this point other than thank you…
- To my Heavenly Father for creating me and endowing me with the gifts I simply try to use to the best of my ability each day and fall woefully short of doing so…and for leading me here to Legacy Learning Systems.
- To my wife, Tara, for being the voice of sanity in usually hectic days and always encouraging me to serve our affiliates better, among much more for which I am thankful to her. I love you so much, Sweetheart.
- To you for being such great affiliates. Truly, you make it absolutely a true joy to serve you each day. Coming to work is a blast…except when our internet goes down or my printer doesn’t work haha.
- To this company. To Gabriel Smith, our CEO, for trusting me to do what is right with this program and to our entire team for making such great products.
- To those who nominated me. I found out there were more of you than I ever knew. I appreciate you thinking of me.
- To Shawn Collins and Missy Ward for putting on the awards.
OK, I will spare you anything else, but I did want to write this and express my heartfelt gratitude for this honor.
Back to working on our Pay Per Call Campaigns on ShareASale!

Congratulations. Indeed, giving God praise for talents and skills is giving credit where it is due but you still had to take action in using those skills.
Onward with purpose,
Chaplain Paul Slater

Nice job, Matt! I was really hoping to meet you at Affiliate Summit; too bad you couldn’t make it. I look forward to chatting with you about the upcoming PPCall program, and meeting you in person this summer in New York!

Not sure what Pay Per Call is but if it is a way for those of us who are retired to earn income online, I want to explore it. Right now, Pay Per Call is what I do now whenever I use the phone.
