Looking into Affiliate marketing for a newbie any help?

5 replies
So i'm currently struggling in my MLM company and while i love the company i'm with i have many internet marketing friends who need tools to get leads and learn and so i want to do affiliate marketing know the vast majority are free to sign up with but i want to sell other people's content to internet marketers.
Here is what i'm looking in these companies i don't expect to find this all in one company but it would like to hear your suggestions on programs to choose from.

Looking for these things in an affiliate program

1. Pays either daily, weekly or bi-weekly

2. I can sell other people's products

3. High commission rate talking 15% or more

4. Can allow me to sell to other internet marketers

5. Money deposited to your bank or PayPal account.

6. Provides capture pages or Wordpress sites if possible

7. Possibly provides training


I'm really looking to sell things to other people in MLM like leads etc or training's.

I thought about teaming up with Mac Zidan of empower network. Because I do a lot of postcard marketing and I know he is extremely good at postcard marketing.

Any suggestion on affiliates I could do that can sell products to other internet marketers?

    I think you could start learning the rudiments of Email Marketing. I know there are a lot of big players in MLM who utilize building a List of Prospects.

    So you may want to invest in Autoresponder and Hosting for a Sq. Page.

    For WP, I use WP Optins 2.0. for building Sq. Pages. It is like $17 and gets the job done very efficiently.

    You can start building your List of potential MLM Prospects. As you get some success, you could show some of your MLM friends how to go about Email Marketing. And then market your service to them in that capacity.

    Sell them a quality Course on Email Marketing or make your own.

    At least that sounds kind of what you want to do ?

    Good luck

  • Warrior Plus and JVZoo have an affiliate program you can make up to 100% on the sales of there products as an affiliate and they deposit the money into your paypal account but I believe you will still need to create your own capture pages/ website pages yourself or by using a wordpress page such as WP Optins 2.0 and some products also have an affiliate page which has some training on how you can promote there products to others anyway good luck

    I totally agree with the comments there is no magical pill for MLM, it's must all start by building a List and then building a relationship with that list and then you can offer a MLM or Network Marketing opportunity that will result in sign ups and it takes time. I personally market a MLM called worldglobalpro dot com
    but I am more into Affilaite Marketing because it's more profitable and it has more sustainability that MLM. The Attrition rate in MLM is staggering if you ever built a Huge downline you will understand. You can literally lose money overnight if the product is weak.

    1. create a blog (wordpress)
    2. purchase an auto responder (getresponse or Aweber)
    3. Lead capture page software (optimizepress, lead pages, etc)
    4. build content (curationsoft, article wizard, fiverr)
    5. Solo ads, good traffic exchanges
    5a. Earn while you learn...... market warrior plus and Jvzoo products
    6. have patience it takes time

    As I've said before folks - these get posted EVERY day - just like the ones yesterday, and the day before...without moderation this is what happens.

    Edit: "Fitness Freak" - nothing against you, I know you're new and could not possibly know that other newbies are asking how to make money online, on a 'make money online forum.' Just use the search feature please - people post these VERY same questions every single day, multiple times - it gets a bit annoying. Thanks

    That's going to exclude about 99.9% of them. Why does that matter so much to you?

    That's part of the definition of "affiliate marketing", so it excludes absolutely none.

    Commission-percentages are a very poor criterion, in themselves, for judging anything. Which would you rather earn: 15% of $100 with a 2% conversion-rate, or 5% of $200 with a 4% conversion-rate? Think about it ...

    No rudeness intended at all, but in addition to reading/searching, as Jeff wisely suggests above, I respectfully suggest learning a little more about affiliate marketing, and how it works, before setting out such rigid and unhelpful criteria by which to assess the various opportunities you might find. Otherwise it's really questionable how appropriate/useful to yourself the decisions you make might be.
