Shawn Collins Video gives a short run-down on the New York affiliate tax law

The following video is a quick update on the new law that's been passed in New York state and how it affects thousands of affiliates who live there. For more information visit Shawn's blog post titled, "New York Affiliate Tax Recap".

At least if you're a JanRon Digital Club affiliate you don't have to worry, because Clickbank has decided to take the high road and stand up for the affiliate in this issue. "While we are disappointed by New York’s decision, there is no way we are going to cut off our affiliates, our highly-valued business partners, because of an action by lawmakers."

And this is a comment from MediaTrust.

"This is an issue that can become a problem for the industry if we as an industry don’t address it. Please spread the word as we work with the IAB to assemble information about the impact this has on affiliate marketing. I will send updates thru Twitter http://twitter.com/mediatrust, http://www.RelevantlySpeaking.com and the affiliatepetition@gmail.com


It is very important that we collaborate as a community around this. The industry is fragmented and most affiliates are to small individually to have a voice. As we say at MediaTrust ” we are stronger as a collective then as individuals”. We all need to create a community voice and nip this or address it in a meaningful way. I believe leveraging the social media can help spread the word."

Here's Shawn's video. I guess I don't have to tell you that your comments on this issue are most welcomed.
