3 Reasons Affiliate Marketing Is The Right Way To Start Your Online Business

Sooooooo many new folks (sometimes referred to as “newbies”) get introduced to Affiliate Marketing by typing “how to make money online” into Google.

Lets see how many. Below is the search from Google Keyword Planner tool and I simply typed “how to make money online”.

1- The graph shows consistent searches every month

2- we see over 40,500 searches of the exact term

3- over 14,800 searchs of the term “way’s to make money online”

Then when we go over to Google and we do the search we find over 10 million search results of the exact term as you can see I enclosed it in quotes.

Obviously, the task of finding the right opportunity can be daunting.

There are a lot of ways to create an income online. But they pretty much can be separated into two categories. You’re either going to be marketing products or marketing services. If you want to create a long term online business, then product marketing could be the best option. And Affiliate Marketing is a great way to get started.

3 Reasons Affiliate Marketing Is The Right Way To Start Your Online Business

1)  You Get To Test What Works

I got started offline in traditional Marketing and almost immediately took action.  This got me into profit in a short time. Then I applied the same principles to Affiliate Marketing and learned early-on that the money is in the list. I found that a lot of Internet Marketing guru’s look at “the list” as numbers. My traditional Marketing background got me looking at my list as “real people that Opted-In to my list to receive value”.

At first glance, Internet and Affiliate Marketing looked easy, but I found out it wasn’t as easy as it looked. To do it right, you need to set up a landing page which consisted of getting:

• A Domain name
• A hosting account
• Landing page creation software
• An Auto-responder
• Auto-responder follow up sequence that you write or pay a copy writer
• Tracking software
• A high converting offer
• A way process payments, etc.

Needless to say there’s a huge learning curve and the reason that most folks quit before getting into profit.

That’s why I started this Blog which consist of training, reviews and tips on successful Affiliate Marketing.

2)  You Can Figure Out Where Passion And Profit Meets

Most everyone heard the saying, “do something you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” That translates to Affiliate marketing.  Define what you’re passionate about. Something you’re enthusiastic about learning about. This can be your niche.

Then do the research and see what product is in your niche that can help others that have your similar passion.

3)  Variety Is The Key To Establishing Your Business

A majority of Brick and Mortar businesses fail within the first 3 years. I’ve heard numbers as high as 80% of all new businesses failing. Online and Affiliate marketing is probably not too different. It’s just harder to track.

One way to help you succeed in Affiliate Marketing is to be involved in several product niches. This gives you maximum exposure but not without a price. The price is a time investment in the research needed to marketing each product from different niches.

But a huge advantage you’ll have when it comes to affiliate marketing is that you are selling someone elses product. Typically the Affiliate Company will provide tools and education needed for you to be successful selling their product. It’s a true win-win situation.

The Number 1 Tip to Follow

Lastly, what you need to know is that when promoting any affiliate product, while you can make money, a true internet marketer is focused on collecting emails and building their list. In order to do this, you need a sales funnel. This consist of sending traffic to a landing page where visitors will have the opportunity to put in their email address.

Once they put in their email, then they we be re-directed to the your affiliate link sales page. Now, they may decide not to buy, or simply get distracted away from the sales page… but now you have their email address added to your auto-responder and you have the ability to follow up with them.

And over time, as you send them emails, they get to know-like-and-trust you and that increases your chance of converting them into a lifelong, loyal customer.

The best way I know of to accomplish this is to set up a sales funnel.
