(Page 1 of 4 )
It's no secret there is money in affiliate marketing, in fact there is great money in affiliate marketing if you align yourself with a good company with good products.
The reason there are some failures and jaded feelings about affiliate marketing is because people don't think about what the very phrase means. There are two words to consider. Affiliate is a definition that comes to most people quite easily as it means "A person, organization, or establishment associated with another". Easy enough. The second part of that phrase is the one that will make or break your efforts to be a success in affiliate marketing.
Marketing. People think it means knocking on doors, making hundreds of phone calls, sending out thousands of e-mails, just to market your product or service that you're selling through an affiliate network. True, you are an affiliate of a company and you are selling the same thing as dozens of other people, how to you set yourself apart from the crowd?
Establish a relationship with your prospects. When you contact someone about the product or service that you're representing through your affiliate marketing program, your initial contact is not about making a sale or a fulfillment order, it's about establishing a relationship with your potential client. Setting yourself up to establish a relationship with your prospects takes a little preparation but it's not hard to do.
