Commission Hero is an affiliate marketing education company. We guarantee no income. Robby Blanchard's results are his own historical results and are not typical. Affiliate marketing involves work, costs, and risk, including money spent on advertising that may not be recovered.
1. Platform sources
These references back the statements about ClickBank, Facebook and the affiliate marketing model made in Commission Hero advertising and training materials. They describe how the platforms work. They do not verify participant earnings.
ClickBank
- How affiliates earn commission. Ready Affiliates promote a seller's product through a tracking link. Commission is a percentage or flat amount set by the seller, paid only on completed sales, and issued by check or direct deposit once the account reaches its payment threshold. Backs: "Somebody buys, ClickBank pays you a commission." support.clickbank.com/en/articles/10535292
- Commission types and rates are set by the seller. Ready Sellers offer revenue share (a percentage) or CPA (a flat fee). Rates vary by product. Revenue share commission is reversed if the sale is refunded. Backs any statement about commission rates or "highest-commission products." support.clickbank.com/en/articles/10535164 · support.clickbank.com/en/articles/10535287
- ClickBank scale. Ready ClickBank states it works with more than 6 million entrepreneurs in over 200 countries, serves over 200 million customers, has more than 100,000 affiliates, and has paid over $7.3 billion in commissions since 1998. Our ads say "nearly 6 million ClickBank accounts," which sits at or below ClickBank's own figure. clickbank.com/our-story · clickbank.com/affiliates
- The affiliate model: no product, no inventory, no customer service. Ready The seller owns the product, handles delivery and support; ClickBank processes the payment; the affiliate's role is promotion. Backs: "Nothing to make, nothing to mail, nobody to manage." clickbank.com/about-clickbank
- Marketplace statistics ("trending" products). The ClickBank Marketplace publishes per-offer statistics (gravity, average sale value, rebill rates) that affiliates use to compare offers. Backs: "one dashboard shows you which ClickBank products are trending." ClickBank Support article "How do I search the ClickBank Marketplace?"
- ClickBank Platinum. ClickBank's Platinum program recognises accounts that reach $250,000 in sales in a calendar year. Needed if any ad references Platinum or Diamond awards. ClickBank Platinum program page
Facebook (Meta)
- Facebook audience size. Ready Meta reported 3.60 billion family daily active people on average for June 2026, with Facebook alone above 2 billion daily actives. Backs: "Facebook has billions of users." Meta Q2 2026 results, July 29, 2026 · SEC Form 8-K exhibit
- Facebook advertising is a paid service. Ready Meta's Q2 2026 advertising revenue was $59.36 billion. Advertisers, including affiliates, pay Meta to show their ads. Backs the disclosure that students will spend money on ads. Meta Q2 2026 earnings presentation (PDF)
- Ad budgets. Advertisers set daily or lifetime budgets; minimum budgets apply and actual daily spend can run above the set amount on some days. Backs "what a realistic starting ad budget looks like." Meta for Business help page on budgets, costs and schedules
Affiliate marketing generally
- Affiliate marketing has existed for decades. Amazon's Associates program launched in 1996; ClickBank in 1998. Our ads say "20 years old," which is below the documented age. Artcicle: "When Did Affiliate Marketing Start?"
2. Income disclosure and instructor results
How the business works
Commission Hero teaches people how to promote other companies' products as a ClickBank affiliate using paid Facebook ads, with an AI tool (Hero AI) that generates the ad and page. Commission Hero does not take a share of student commissions. ClickBank pays commissions directly to the student. The training video is free. Commission Hero also sells paid programs. To earn commissions, a student must spend money on Facebook ads, and some of that spend will not produce sales. Results depend on effort, skill, budget and market conditions.

Student results
Commission Hero ads do not currently quote any student's income. A student figure will only appear on this page with that student's written consent, the student's own ClickBank record for the figure, the period covered, and a note on gross versus net, alongside the survey showing what students typically achieve. Earlier ads named students including Chad, Jeff, Andreas, Noel, Liza, Manuela, Daz, Jennifer, Mariah, Matt, Jordan, Will, Luke and Wesley; none of those figures will be reused without the items above.
Enrollment and community figures
References to 14,000 people refer to total enrollments in Commission Hero programs. The private student community currently has 17,000 members as of 10/2/2026. Enrollment does not mean completion and does not mean income earned.
