[BIG BONUSES] Would this entice you to be an affiliate and sell lots?

Looking for the opinions of you folks who like to market stuff (and are good at it).

If you could promote a high quality $47 IM training product (a membership) and get these sort of commissions and cash bonuses for sales done during a certain period, would you wanna jump onboard?

EXAMPLE BIG BONUS CAMPAIGN
100 net affiliate sales - $2100 recurring commissions each month + $1500 one-time BONUS
200 net affiliate sales - $4200 recurring commissions each month + $4000 one-time BONUS

I'm looking for creative ways to get affiliates interested in promoting products.

If it would entice you...how long would you feel would be reasonable to get those kinds of sale numbers--2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks?

If you have better (or other) ideas, let me know too

    The bonuses look great.

    Other ways to entice affiliates is to have as many tools as possible.

    For example, the link generators, brandable reports, articles, email swipes, how to make a YT video with aff link, etc.

    It will be much more work, but things like that usually hit home well with a newbie who is looking to promote a product.

    The less work affiliates have to do, the better for them.

    And to get sales like that would greatly depend on the niche / the list / and overall quality of the list.

    ...and of course the person promoting

    Thanks for the ideas, James. I wonder if a newbie could sell 100-200 of something like that in order to actually get the bonuses...or if this sort of a deal would be best left to the experienced affiliates. What do you think?

    Hey Trev & Kam,

    Big affiliate bonuses work - PERIOD. I've seen recent affiliate competitions with $10k cash prize to the highest grossing affiliate.

    You also need to help your affiliates by providing them with enough marketing material and also by monitoring who has mailed their list and who hasn't. Some affiliates will mail for you every day leading to a product launch and others will only send 1 email on launch day, either way you need to be on top of their promotional activities.

    Hope that helps

      Thanks for the thoughts. Abul. Where do you tend to find these types of competitions promoted?

    Thanks for your input, Brent. How would you learn about this best if one was put on...so you'd even know that it was going to happen, a personal email, what?

      Sure, send an email. Also give them a phonecall if possible.

      1. Make lots of different creatives... ie banners, emails, graphics etc. Offer anyone on the fence worth having, exclusive creatives or landing pages. Why not?

      2. Put on some big bonuses like this.

      3. Get buddy buddy with BIG affiliates, literally send them something to get their attention. Literally mail them a $100 bill! Serious! If you really need BIG affs then this type of stuff will work.

      I know a company that does millions in home exercise products and they sent absolutely huge guys rolexes at launch. Now I don't think you are probably at that level... yet... but take a page and if you really need some high volume, do something crazy to stand out from every other offer. I have also seen companies send out iPads to big affiliates. This definitely happens.

      4. If all else fails you can offer to pay trustworthy affiliates up front, some risk but it will get affiliates on your offer without a doubt.

      If you can't get any affiliates to run you after this, you are doing something seriously wrong!!!!! If you think you don't need to do this stuff, sure you don't but these techniques will get your offers to the next level with serious affiliate traffic.

        I love the "yet". Now if I could just train my kids to always be that positive! Great ideas, Brent. Thanks
