For the VERY best in affiliate marketing training try this place.
I know quite a bit about this affiliate marketing stuff and I’ve made good money at it. I also intend to scale it up quite a bit. But I’m slow.
Some of my visitors have taken things I showed them and run with it! Now they make more money than I do. That’s life, and…
I’ve got VERY smart readers. Smarter than me in most cases and some of them are very successful.
You see, my MAIN holdup in Internet Marketing is the FACT that I am disorganized. Add to that the FACT that I am easily distracted and you have a recipe for slowdown. Only action gets me ahead. Things have to get done.
Listen…ACTION is the secret! The actions you take will teach you more and get you further into earnings than anything else.
Go ahead…study! Hopefully it will improve you. But ACTION better be 4x study, or you’ll NEVER get those sales pages up, and you’ll never get those traffic tactics working.
And if those two things don’t happen, by your efforts, you are finished. Outta here. Fini.
I know that’s obvious. I know you know that. I have VERY smart readers. But I like to be reminded of the things I already know so that I won’t go to sleep or lose a good habit.
When you come right down to it, success at Affiliate Marketing, is insured in large part by your own personal “work ethic”.
A lot of people don’t like to work! That’s ok. We can’t change them.
But they will NEVER make money in marketing. On the ‘net or off.
But that’s not why we showed up here today.
What are the two “big things” you have to do to succeed as an affiliate marketer? There really are only two things you have to do to get Internet Marketing working for you! You have to find a good offer and then find customers to buy it. In affiliate sales half of this (the big half) is done already!
I wish it had been like that when I was laying railroad track! So affiliate marketing boils down to getting people to see your affiliate link…click on it…see the offer…buy the product…and repeat. So…go find a good offer at Clickbank. Just get it done. Now you have something to sell.
How to sell it? There are quite a few ways, actually.

I started by writing an “article”. My first article wasn’t much different than this one but it served two purposes, both of which you, as an affiliate marketer, really want. One…the article kind of “sorts out” the type of customer you want to see your offer. And Two…the article engages the prospect and hopefully encourages them to click your link!
Basically speaking, here’s an example. Let’s say your offer is “Stop Your Dog From Barking.” You write an article about stopping your dog from barking and you put your affiliate link to the “Stop Dog Barking” offer you have to show them right into your “Resource Box”.
Next you submit the article to an article submission outfit. Most people start with EzineArticles. I use it AND Isnare.
Could something that simple actually work? You betcha!
All you gotta do is two things.
You have to find a good offer and then find customers to buy it.
There are several little side things that need to be done to make this work, but I call that “Infrastructure”. Once it’s done it stays in place as long as you want. One of those things is a “landing page”. Consider Squidoo. That can be as simple as a free hosted blog page at Blogger on which you have written a little pre-sell acknowledgment about “Stopping You Dog From Barking” being a darn good idea and your affiliate link clearly displayed on it.
So… to recap…you write an article with a link in the resource box to your “landing page”.
Your landing page pre-sells them a bit and shows them your affiliate link. That’s it.
Your job is to keep writing articles that will drive people interested in stopping their dog from barking to your landing page which has your affiliate link on it to the offer about stopping dogs from barking!
For those of you out there that are willing to do this I predict a commission notice fairly soon and more to follow. If you kept this up, improving little things as you went along, this would make you money as long as dogs bark.
Remember…Just Two Things…Find a good offer and then find customers to buy it.
Here’s to your success,
