Affiliate Marketing Secrets
If you want to get started quickly and easily in internet marketing, then affiliate marketing is for you. This is when you send visitors to someone else's product sales page, they do all the hard work of making the sale and supporting the customer, and you earn at least a 50% commission
These are a some of the benefits
1. You can get started really quickly because you don't have to develop a product, write the sales page, design the website, develop marketing materials, or get a merchant account and CRM.
2. It's completely hands-free for you because the product owner does all the hard work of support, maintenance and billing.
3. You have nearly zero risk because you already know the product sells, because the product owner has already made sure the product sells. So you already know that the visitors you send will result in commissions for you.
There's no denying that these benefits make affiliate marketing the best thing going!
OK, but it's not all rosy...
You work hard to send the traffic to the product owner's website, but once you do that you will never see those visitors again. Unfortunately, the majority of those visitors (at least 90%) will not buy on their first visit. And of the 10% or less that do buy, the product owner will be able to sell to them again, but you will not.
What's the solution?
It's simple: You must get your visitors' to opt in to your email list before you send them to the product owner's website. This way you can follow up with them and keep sending them back to the sales page to increase your chances of making the sale. And if you want to do it like a pro, you'll give them some great content before sending them to the sales page.
Here are the benefits of doing affiliate marketing like this:
1. By building your own list, you're creating a renewable resource that you can tap again and again for instant profits.
2. You'll be warming them up by providing valuable information and then casually linking to the product sales page in the context of this information.
If you want to create an affiliate marketing system like this, you'll need the following:
1. A squeeze page, and even better a Video squeeze page.
2. One or more content-rich "warm up" pages
3. At least a 5-Part Email Followup Series
Instead of sending visitors directly to the product sales page, you'll send them to your lead capture page first. Your squeeze page adds your visitors to you auto responder. This is how you start building your list, and at the same time begin sending them useful information. Once your visitors have been subscribed to your email series, they are sent to your content pages.
These high-quality content pages provide value and build good will. This way your visitor is more likely to buy when they get to the product owner's website. And at the same time, the email series begins following up with them to get them back to the sales page, in case they don't buy on the first visit.
All of this together increases your chances of making the sale by up to 500% so it's well worth the effort of setting it up. And after you get it all set up, it runs on total auto-pilot. You just refer people to your lead capture page, instead of the product sales page.
Setting it all up yourself requires some skill, and if you're not up to it, you can use a service like (see Author Bio Box). With a strong service, you don't have to do anything. They make the video, build the squeeze page, write the email series, develop the content mini-site, etc. And then just give you a finished package. The benefit is that it's much less expensive then you could do it yourself, and it's instantly set up. The drawback is that you won't be the only one using these affiliate tools. But the internet is huge, so this shouldn't really affect you.
Alternatively, you can use a service to "outsource" each of these compnents. Whichever way you decided to go, it's critical to get an affiliate marketing system like this in place, if you're at all serious about your business.
