It’s just a rumor of course. We can’t be sure if there is any truth to the story but rumor has it that Santa is, in fact, an affiliate marketer. If it is true, the guy is really good! You have to give him that!

He has an entire season devoted to his business and the season gets longer every single year. There was a time when the Santa buying season only lasted from the day after Thanksgiving through December 24th. That was it.

Now, the season seems to start well before Halloween and I have even seen ‘Christmas in July’ marketing. There was also a time when all of the Santa buying season was done in brick and mortar stores on Main Street but now Santa has a huge online presence.

Talk about a customer base! Wow! Practically every man, woman and child in the civilized world is eager to spend money on Santa’s buying season! Now, THAT has got to be the result of some very, very effective advertising.

Santa must be a very generous fellow. He left the door open for the rest of us affiliate marketers to get in on his buying season. He might sell most of the gifts but even he can’t sell all of them and the customer base is huge. He’s doing most of the advertising for us, too!

We can all get in on the Santa buying season as a joint venture with the ‘jolly old elf’ who, if the rumors are right, is the greatest affiliate marketer in the history of affiliate marketing!
