How do I get affiliates to promote my product?

I have a product launching tomorrow and I currently have just a few affiliates. I know for sure that I will make a few sales but definitely not a lot.

I want to keep getting affiliates to promote my product for as long as possible, so my question is, how do I find affiliates to promote m products?

I've contacted a lot of blog owners and people who I've built a relationship with over the past few moths but as I said, only a few are going to promote.

And advice would be great

      Hi Paul,

      Can you be more specific?

      What platform are you launching on - Clickbank?

      What kind of product is it?

      You have to compete for affiliates in your niche just like every other product owner. The better your product and conversions, the more and better affiliates you will attract.

    You need to start much, much earlier in the process to get affiliates on board.

    Think of affiliates as customers, you need to be clear as to the benefits they will get if they work with you. Obviously the rewards have to be worth while or you will get a very poor response (and reputation amongst affiliates).

    As a product launcher and an affiliate marketer making multiple 5 figures monthly I can answer this question well. The #1 way to get affiliates to promote for you is to .. promote for them first. Your much more likely to get a positive response to a affiliate recruitment attempt if you can start with "I was happy to send you XXX sales on your last launch"..

    If it's internet marketing related then next time put up a post on Muncheye. Quite a lot of affiliates go there to check what's being launched.

    Add in a JV page (JVZoo and Warrior Plus let you add the link).

    Reach out to affiliates - I've had private messages on this site before now - and be prepared to give out review copies, possibly before the launch so that you can get some testimonials.

    Consider adding a competition but include minimum sales for the various levels so you're not out of pocket.

    Try and strike up relationships with a few marketers.
    Don't just randomly email people.
    Add a comment of value to their blog for example.
    Once people get to know you they seem happy to promote.

    Try listing your product in affiliate product directories. There aren't a lot of them, but they exist! Just Google them.

      In addition to the great advice you have received above, I would add that there are a number of 'Launch' groups within Facebook, that allow people to promote their launch. well worth looking out for and posting your launches.

      Secondly, a trick that many people miss out on is to have an affiliate promotion within the sales funnel itself. If someone has liked the product enough to purchase it, there is a good chance that they might sign up as an affiliate.

      And of course the final bit of advice is to make it as easy as possible for the affiliates to promote your product. Therefore make sure you are providing banners, swipes etc.

      ...oh yes and make the rewards (i.e. the commission given decent enough to make it worth their while).

      I hope this hellps and I wish you all the best with any launches you do

      I work with a coffee company and their competitors were picked up by an affiliate network now is running is making $100k rev monthly. That is why they came to us once they started looking to expand their online presence and web traffic.

      So I believe if you offer the right amount to your affiliates they will naturally come.

    Prove your sales funnel works. Show affiliates your profitable numbers. Don't for their traffic. Ask them to TEST your offer. All good affiliates will at least be tempted to test your offer vs another for EPC. If your numbers work they will stay with you.

    Do a search of the WSO section for launches of products similar to yours.

    Send them a PM

    Also, you can look at the RANKINGS of top sellers on Warrior Plus as well as WF's own platform. If you find similar products or complementary products, contact those producers.

    BONUS ADVICE:
    Produce a case study as to why your product is WORTH promoting.
