The Seven Keys to Success for Affiliates
Affiliate programs may seem an easy way to sell. The
problem is, most people focus on a one shot sale. They
spend all their time chasing new customers, trying to sell
them, and then forgetting about them. Without a good sales
process and target marketing, sales will not be high.
Without generating traffic to your site, you will not sell
at all. If you do not follow up with your loyal customers
who have bought (talk about a sign of trust), you are
wasting your time and money.
Becoming an affiliate for other Web sites? products and
service is a great idea if you take the right steps. The
following are things to look for, and ways to plan out what
you are about to do.
1. Sell One Thing and Sell it Well
Web flea markets don’t work for the most part. The Web is a
virtually free publishing medium that allows people to offer
anything quickly and easily.
So many Web Sites try to offer everything under the sun;
this approach is confusing and has never proven to be a good
basis to sell. Focus on a few products and sell them very
well; then follow up to offer other products and services.
2. Get Good Profit Margins
Amazon.com is the leader in affiliate programs, which is
surprising. They pay 5-15% per book. Books are often sold
for less than $20.
At best, you are working for tips like a waiter, at $3.50 a
pop. Unfortunately, if you do not have a busy restaurant,
this deal will yield little or nothing.
Let’s say you want to make $1,000 a month; you would have to
sell 286 books to reach your goal. That is a huge volume.
Now compare that to a $50 book; your best case scenario
510
