Collins, a former day jobber and former affiliate manager of Internet.com, coined up the idea of launching Affiliate Summit in the late 90s-early 2000s, as he continued working paycheck to paycheck. Shawn did the transformation business work out of inspiration or desperation, and believed in himself and the awesome power of making affiliate marketing work for him.
