FOR ALL THE AFFILIATES: what 'role' do you play in the sales process?
That of a reviewer?
That of a value provider?
Or maybe just skip the whole preselling part all together and just redirect them straight to the merchant?
I mean what is the best way to get your prospect to really click on that link...
I still haven't really figured what role I should play in the whole process or put in other words...what THE BEST ROLE is.
I know it can make and break the conversion...
Also, should you ALWAYS mention that the link your prospect will click on is a paid website and that you're trying to sell them something or
should you just briefly mention something along these lines at the end of every article: "Well If you liked this article you can check this site (affiliatelink) for more specifics and in depth training..."
and kinda just keep quiet about the whole fact that you're trying to sell them something ( I mean they will figure out anyway if they click)... So without putting much emphasis on the fact that you're trying to sell them...Just because there is a possibility that this could work in reverse and backfire???? I don't know actually...
My question is, what works best for you?
And does this vary within different niches?
I can imagine it's best to take on the reviewer role in the internet marketing niche...but what about other niches, like dating or weight loss for example?
What is your take on this?
Fair warning: It's possible I'm arguing with you because I have nothing better to do.
