Hi,

I have been searching affiliate program for real products that are shipped / posted to customers. Are there any sites similar to Clickbank offering those?

Yes, I know Amazon is the biggest option but I want to try something else with higher payouts.

      That alone makes me think that Share-A-Sale isn't a very high quality platform, but there are quality products listed there. But, keep in mind, that physical products have much lower commissions due to the shipping costs and cost of goods when compared to info products.

    There is a dedicated section for affiliate program and affiliate network on warrior forum.

    There are plenty of affiliate network : CJ, ShareASale, AffiliateWindows, Avantlink, Pepperjamnetwork, Impact Radius, among many other, some are more specialized in a niche than another.

    check the affiliate network section, you should be able to tell what network may be best fit for your business

    Profit margins on a manufactured (physical) product are drastically lower than the profit margin on info products.

    In other words, there isn't that much left for paying out commissions.

    THE BEST METHOD


    - Create a shop with Shopify

    - Check goods from Aliexpress with free shipping

    - Put these products in Shopify: set the product for free e and put the cost in the shipping price

    - Promote with fb ads with conversion method (you pay only when the item is sold).

    Rinse and repeat

    If you think you're going to find a physical product seller who pays affiliates the same kind of percentage (50%+), you're hogging the hookah, brah.

    I used to do physical inventories for small businesses, and many of them wanted the final results by cost, so they shared their markups on the various products. Typically, those retailers worked on a 100% markup. So what does this mean for a potential affiliate commission?

    Take a $100 product to keep the math simple.

    Subtract the cost of the product, in this case $50. That leaves $50 to cover all business expenses, plus a profit for the retailer.

    Next, subtract the product's contribution to overhead - the cost of holding the product, displaying it for sale, labor, utilities, taxes, insurance, etc. Let's call it 40%, or $40. That leaves $10 for retailer profit and potential commissions.

    If they offer you $5, or 5%, they're giving you a 50-50 split.

    By managing the overheads, etc., some retailers can manage to bump that up to 10-15%.

    It's easy to offer 50%, 75% or more in affiliate commissions when the incremental cost of delivery is essentially zero. In effect, it's the same 50-50 split my retailer above could offer.

    If you know how business works, you know how absurd it is to complain about low commissions of 4%-8% (which is what Amazon offers) on physical products.

    The reality is, if you want Clickbank level commissions, stick to Clickbank style products. It's the only way to find vendors with enough margin to pay those percentages.

    Shareasale, CJ, Linkshare, Pepperjam, Linkconnector, eBayPartnerNetwork, Amazon, etc... .

    The majority of affiliate commissions I earned in the last 16 years+ were from physical products (not digital). Yes - they pay a lower commission level which is common sense but some do pay a higher commission than others. Amazon pays lowers commissions & has only a 1 day cookie length but customers "frequently" do end up purchasing products unrelated to why they initally visited the site for. However it is nice to promote product-niche merchant website with long cookie lengths & 10-30% commissions.

    People buy physical products for their house, yard, family, etc... . You can't buy a bottle of perfume, clothes, artwork or power saw at Clickbank. I think too many people here at the Warrior Forum are blind to non-digital products IMO.

    you can get what you want here:

    shareasale

    commissionjunction

    impactradius

    amazon


    warning: the commission is usually around 10%, it's important that you check out how long the cookie lasts. The longer the better..

    Also, after you get some sales going you can renegotiate for a higher percentage. I once went from 10% to 13%.

    Best of luck,

    I have always liked ShareASale.com

    there are a ton of others, but they make it easy to search, and make money pretty fast.

    also read Connann, comment he said above. Basically people are doing that, with aliexpress, as they are wholesale, so you can by just 1 or 2 items, without having to buy a truckload of products and do $100 -$200 a day....fast. If you nail down, and hit a hot market. I know my friend is doing this with pokemon go stuff....and cleaning up. Follow trends in the news, and that, and sell that stuff....people go nuts over it. :-)

    Your welcome.
