Making Money With the HUGE World of Affiliate Products
One of my favorite ways of making money, in the whole entire WORLD is with Affiliate products or affiliate marketing.
This basically means that you sign up with any vendor or product provider, you get your own unique Affiliate ID, and you start marketing and advertising.
The best thing about this whole process is that usually with affiliate programs, all the production and administration has been taken care of for you… even the merchant processing and payments are all taken care of.
All you need to worry about is simply the marketing aspect of it all.
But before I get into the marketing part, let me FULLY explain all the different affiliate programs that are available to you.
The very obvious ones are sites like ClickBank.com, CJ.com, and even sites like Amazon and Target have their own affiliate programs.
But all of the sites above are based on a one time sale, one time commission sort of deal. (I’ll tell you how you can leverage your business so that it DOESN’T end up as a one time commission kind of thing.. but more on that later)
Another form of affiliate marketing that is VERY powerful and even MORE profitable than sites like ClickBank and Amazon is…. Network Marketing or Multi Level Marketing.
NOW WAIT A SEC BEFORE YOU START ROLLING YOUR EYES TO THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD AND CLOSING THIS ARTICLE. Lol
I know what everyone thinks about MLM or Network Marketing… it’s a scam, you can’t make any money from it, all the people who are already involved are cheaters and scammers and blah blah blah.
Ok we got all that… but let’s take a step back and actually analyze the MLM business model.
Just like any other affiliate program, you get access to a product that has been researched thoroughly and is available for you to sell to the consumer public.
And just like other affiliate programs, the production, administration and payroll has been taken care of FOR you.
So what’s the big problem that many people have with MLM? I think it’s one of two things…
- SOME MLM’s require that you make some sort of initial start up investment to get access to the products and your affiliate ID.
- The idea of building a downline of distributors reminds a lot of people of the ol’ “Pyramid Scheme” sort of thing.
Two VERY legitimate concerns… BUT I don’t think they’re enough to hold someone back from pursuing a potentially profitable business.
You see, it really doesn’t matter where you get the product from.
I’ve sent people to ClickBank.com that have made THOUSANDS from it, and I’ve sent people there who didn’t make a single penny.
I’ve referred people to MLM who have made MILLIONS from their businesses, and I’ve seen people who LOST money.
And the whole distributor thing is NO WHERE NEAR a pyramid scheme type of model. In Network Marketing, in order for you to make any sort of passive income, your distributors need to be making money too.
You don’t get paid when you sign someone up… you could recruit thousands upon thousands of distributors but if none of them are making any money, then you aren’t either.
Now I’m not here to sell you on any particular Affiliate website or MLM company… not at all.
At the end of the day, the product or the company that is providing the product has absolutely NOTHING to do with whether or not you will make any money… that part is up to you and you only.
And as I’ve said before, it’s all about marketing. If you know how to correctly market the products that you’ve been given access to, then you’ll make money… it’s really that simple.
And lucky for you, that’s the purpose for this entire blog. To show you how to set up a marketing system that will do all the dirty work FOR you.
A great place to start would be the Marketing & Sales Pipeline.
