Affiliate marketing is simply an online business opportunity allow you to sell others products and services that you didn’t created by yourself and you don’t even own them, and once the sales done you’ll get your commission,
it’s quite similar when working in any offline “traditional” company in the sales department.
your job will be to just promote the company’s products/services which actually you didn’t create them, and you don’t own them neither,
you just promote them to the right audience who are most likely to be interesting about the products/service you’re promoting to solve their problems or to support their needs,
and once you close the deal, then you’ll get your commission for that sale.
it’s actually the same concept in affiliate marketing, but it’s done through the internet at anytime and from anywhere you like, which means that you’ll have all the benefits of traditional jobs or businesses, and in additional of that you’ll have the freedom and flexibility in your timing to work whenever you want.
I hope that give you general idea about the concept of online affiliate marketing business model.
But before I dive in to this kind of online business model, I would like to ask you several questions and I want you to honestly answer yourself,
- Do you like to wake up early in the morning every day?
- Do you like to keep being hurry getting ready to attend your job on the time?
- Do you like to drive through the rush hours while going and coming from your job?
- Do you like to be punished if you just attend 5 minutes late to your job?
- Do you like to have a bosses forcing you to do the things in their ways?
- Are you satisfied with your job income?
- Do your Job income support your needs?
I’m sure all your answers to the previous questions will be “NO”,
Otherwise you’ll not be here looking for solutions to increase your income and earn extra cash online.
Actually these questions and more were the main reason for me to start my own online business years back, and it should be your reason to start yours today without any hesitation also.
I know what you’re thinking now,
You’re thinking now why this kind of online business is so popular than other online business models, and that what I’m going to explain to you in just a moment.
Why This Kind Of Online Business Is So Popular?
actually if you want to start an online business then you have to create great and useful product/service to be able to promote them for the right audiences to help them solving their problems or supporting their needs,
and the more your products/services are helpful and useful for your customers, the more likely they’re going to buy from you to help them solve more of their problems.
but as a beginner, that could be very hard if it’s not impossible to be done, because beginners mostly will not have enough experience to create their own great and helpful products to help others in a way that entice them to pay for their products.
actually to start your own online business you have to do several things like the following,
- Creating useful products.
- Keep your products up to date.
- Keep providing help and support for your customers.
- Create high converting website.
- Promoting your products to targeted audiences.
So instead of learning then doing all these things alone, which could take years from you, you just have to keep all your focus and attention to one thing which is to get the product in front of the right audiences who are having problems your products can solve.
By doing only one thing correctly, you’ll be able to start your own online business as an affiliate marketer starting from the first day you join any honest affiliate marketing site.
That’s why I told you it’s the best way most beginners and advanced marketers like to start with.
from this point the idea of affiliate marketing appears, which is giving complete newbies the opportunity to start their online business faster and easier.
How Does Affiliate Marketing Work?
Actually this is an important question to look for,
You can do that simply by registering for the sites or vendors who offer this kind of online business to get your special link from them, and then you can just start promote this link which will refer your visitors to the vendor products but through your link,
In this way, the vendor funnel will automatically know that the visitor comes from your side, and then once this visitor purchase any product, you’ll get your commission,
I already did special post for this where I spoke about affiliate marketing for beginners, you can check it to understand the importance of the affiliate marketing business and how it works for the beginners too.
How Much You Could Earn Being an Affiliate Marketers?
Actually the potential is limitless, but for sure that depends on several factors like…
your “background, effort, experience, daily action, skills, discipline, knowledge, ability to learn and implement”
and lots more…
but if you learn the right concept from the honest experts and start applying them correctly in the daily basis without giving up, then you’ll be able to earn really decent money.
yes, that’s very possible…
but for sure that will not be in the beginning of start doing it, you have to get enough experience to be able to get that much of earning and even more…
BUT…
for sure that all depends on you…
I can’t promise or guarantee any kind of earning for you, because you’re still the most important factor in the process.
Killer Mistakes for Newbies.
actually there are lots of mistakes that most if not all of the newbies are doing them when they just start out their own affiliate marketing like,
– Promoting useless products/services.
which will really harm their reputation in a way that they never imagine it could happens,
because unfortunately there are lots of scammers in the internet offering useless products/services to just profit from then just run away, without actually giving any value for those who purchased from them,
so if you start promoting such as products, you’ll end up with lots of troubles.
before star promoting any product/service you have to know if it’s really good or not and if it’s giving real value or not, to avoid falling in the troubles later.
– Not getting targeted visitors.
which means that they’re not getting the products in front of the right peoples.
for example if you’re promoting something like online business opportunities, it’s not going to serve you at all to attract the visitors who are interested in the dog training to see your products/services.
– Selling products that have no support later.
unfortunately, there are lots of products in the market don’t have any kind of support, training or help after it has been sold, which definitely going to harm you and the product reputation also, because it seams useless without the right support and training, to allow your customers to use these products in the right way to get the maximum benefit from them.
that’s why I strongly advice you to deal with your online business as a real business, and not just keep doing the things in random, clueless, and irresponsible way, because that will never help you to build profitable and sustainable online business, rather than that, it will harm your reputation and business, which is actually from the most important things to keep your total focus on.
building an online business actually not hard like how everyone is telling you, but you have to learn the basics from trusted and honest leader to be able to start correctly which will allow you to keep improving your online business to get better results in return.
