Triangulating Affiliate Marketing Success
Posted 29th April 2015 at 03:03 PM by bobandnanci
New marketers are always told to model the top earners in their businesses in order to get to their affiliate marketing success faster but there is a better way.
Today, thanks to JT DeBolt and the MOBE Power Up Call, we are going to learn how to triangulate our affiliate marketing success, cause this is the way pilots think, accountants, not so much.
Part of what we were told when we first got into affiliate marketing is true, you want to watch what the top earners are doing in the business so that you can learn from them. The problem with doing that is that it only gives you one data point, one point of view and it may not work for you.
The reason that modeling just one of the gurus in this business doesn't work is two-fold. The first being that they are playing to their strengths and those may be your weaknesses. The other is that the industry changes so often that their current plan, the one that you are learning, may not even work for them anymore.
Brands and Biographies
Build a system that will work for you by watching the marketing of brands that you can identify with like Apples or Tesla. Make sure that you are watching companies that exhibit the same core values that you possess so that you can maintain the integrity of your brand.
Read biographies and follow leaders in other fields. I like to follow people like Richard Branson and Donald Trump (believe it or not I can actually get beyond his ego to the information that I want).
Look for the commonalities that all of these sources have, see where they intersect and triangulate your affiliate marketing success from there.
This will give you a basic blueprint that will need to be adapted so that it gives you 100% compatibility with the brand that you are building.
Monitor the affiliate marketing gurus
As I said, it is a great idea of follow the top earners in the affiliate marketing field, you can learn a lot from them. Make sure though that you don't follow just one, that you follow several.
Now, monitor what they are doing. If you can, get on their list so that you can see their follow through. You don't want to buy a program from somebody who is not using the system that they are selling to you.
Triangulate your affiliate marketing success
1. Have multiple point of information. The more data points that you have the easier it is to find the intersection that will get you to your affiliate marketing success the fastest.
2. Find a couple of good programs that you can study to get your skill set where you want it to be. I'm not suggesting the shiny object syndrome approach. Look at what is out there that can help you and then find just a couple that resonate with you.
3. You do not have to agree with everything about the person, brand or course. You do have to take out of them those things that will further your success.
Only your path will get you to your affiliate marketing success but you can collect information from various sources that will give you the reference points that will make it happen faster and easier. As Sir Isaac Newton says, "...on the backs of giants".
