My first computer experience, a Basic programming class on an Apple II, helped spark my interest in the coming Personal Computer revolution. I spent 15 years in the Printing and Graphic Arts industry which embraced the Internet in the mid 1990s as a means of collaboration and graphic file transfer, and gave me a real peek into what might be possible on the web with regard to marketing products and services. More recently I&#8217;ve been involved in the motorcycle accessories industry, specifically eCommerce, which not only has given me a great outlet for my motorcycle addiction, but also provided a stepping stone to what we are working on today with affiliate marketing.<\/em><em>During my free time I love to ride my motorcycles, play a little guitar, hike a few trails and&#8230;what else&#8230;surf the web!The relationship of one website to another is the definition of the World Wide Web and I believe this is the cornerstone of what we strive to facilitate.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to having fun and working on these relationships with you!<\/p>\n<p><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial\"><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We would like to officially welcome Mike Blumenkrantz to affiliateprogramadvice.com Mike has been brought onboard to primarily look after our US interest in affiliate marketing for the next few months.
