How to Make Money with Affiliate Marketing
I see you’re looking for the answer to how do I become an affiliate marketer and you’ve come to the right place. In this post you’ll discover one of the affiliate marketing examples and step-by-step methods of doing so and how to make money with affiliate marketing in 2021 and beyond.
So Let’s dive in!
Now if you’re thinking how to start affiliate marketing with no money, then you have to realize that in order to start any business there are expenses but compared to an offline business, the startup costs are very minimal.
In this post I’ll give you a few affiliate marketing examples and ideas for you.
If you just send your target audience an affiliate link that goes right to the vendors’ sales page, you’re losing out on a lot of sales and money.
Usually people don’t buy on the first exposure to a new product or service. There are tracking links and cookies that and retargeting techniques that vendors use, but not always.
So if the person leaves the sales page without buying, They’ll most likely never go back and there’s no for you to contact them again. They’re gone for good as far as an affiliate sale.
Another, better option, as written in articles and on forums describing affiliate marketing examples, is to know your target market’s needs, wants, desires, pains, and pleasures. Then get your own private domain name that’s related to the affiliate offer. Then get hosting.
Set up an email optin landing page, thank you page. Create a free offer that helps them solve part of the need, answer some of their concerns but not all.
A good way to do it is when they optin for your free report, tell them that their free report should be in the email inbox within 10 minutes, but while you’re waiting, check out this limited time special offer I’ve prepared for you.
Then have them go to the affiliate offer right away.
They’re already interested in what you have because they opted in. If the vendor’s sales page resonates with them, it’s a good chance they’ll buy right then.
Also in the free report, include a conclusion at the end. Give a recap of what was learned and include next steps for further study and getting you closer to your desired outcome.
Say something like…
If you want to dive deeper and really get going with… (outcome), check out this product I found that other people really like and I think you will too.
Include a link to the affiliate offer.
Now you have a subscriber that has shown interest in your free offer.
You can email them and on the first email send them a download link to the free report you promised in the thank you page and remind them of the affiliate offer that’s at the end if they want to learn more.
Now you’re on your way to building an asset. Your mailing list.
They money is in the list. But not just the list. It’s the relationship with that list. Give value, establish yourself as an authority in your market. Build an audience. Give them a good reason to buy from you instead of someone else.
Offer bonuses for buying through your link.
That’s one way of building your affiliate marketing business. There are other ways, but that has been a good model for a lot of marketers.
The tools you will need in order to do this are as follows:
- Landing page software for optin and thank you pages
- Autoresponder to send follow up emails
- Domain name
- Hosting
These are not very expensive to set up. A few affiliate sales, depending on the offer, will cover the costs. The rest is profit.
You can try the autoresponder I use here for 30 days for free. It’s called Getresponse.
It also has a landing page builder, form builder for optins, website builder, autoresponder for pre-writing emails. Lots cool features.
Best,
Steve
