Advertising Disclosure
Last Updated: November 2025
At Summit Leaders, we are committed to complete transparency regarding our advertising practices and financial relationships. This disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various advertising and affiliate arrangements, and how these relationships might influence the content on our website.
Our Commitment: We believe in honest, transparent communication about our business practices. This disclosure is provided in accordance with consumer protection regulations and industry best practices.
Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships
What Are Affiliate Programs?
Summit Leaders may participate in affiliate marketing programs, which means we may earn commissions when you click on certain links and make purchases. These affiliate relationships help support our operations and allow us to provide valuable content and services to our community.
When we include affiliate links in our content, we receive a small commission if you make a purchase through that link, at no additional cost to you. This commission comes from the company selling the product or service, not from you as the purchaser.
Types of Affiliate Relationships
Professional Development Resources
We may earn commissions from recommendations of books, courses, software, or tools that support leadership development and professional growth.
Training Platforms and Services
Links to online learning platforms, assessment tools, or professional services may generate affiliate commissions when users sign up or make purchases.
Business Tools and Software
Recommendations for productivity tools, project management software, or business applications may include affiliate relationships.
Our Affiliate Policy
- We only recommend products and services we genuinely believe can benefit our community
- Our reviews and recommendations are based on quality and value, not commission rates
- We clearly disclose when content contains affiliate links
- Your purchase price remains the same whether you use our affiliate link or not
- We maintain editorial independence in all our content and recommendations
