Advice attracting affiliates

I have my new product set up (I am new to product creation) but am struggling to find affiliates who want to promote it despite a good conversion rate and epc. I am thinking it maybe as the product is to niche.

Here is the sales page: Out The Box Business » Super Product AssetsOut The Box Business

All help appreciated

    Who is your potential customer? What sites and blogs have built a list of them?

    Then which ones are promoting affiliate products?

    You've got a list to start with.

    I'm working through the same process now.

    The biggest question I was left with is.. what should I expect in the package? Are they fitness type articles and graphics? MMO? Both?

    If you don't have a relationship with specific affiliates you may need to do things to entice them: MONEY, Recognition, Gifts, and even bribes...

    Yes, I told one of my former clients to hand $1,000 in cash to a "GURU" at an event. Guess what the results were: This GURU/Super affiliate mailed his offer the very next week. So you need to be creative, you need to hustle.

    Hopefully this helps.

    Oh, almost forgot, you may want to promote for your affiliates first if they have their own offers.

      I'm having the same issues trying to get new affiliates on board for my new product. I know it's a fantastic product and have had daily new signups but they are all from my own list and I want a new audience which is why I welcome affiliates and want to give them 70% to promote.

      I've created a JV page, can someone take a look and let me know if I need more info on there or more email swipes, etc: earnestaffiliate.com/affiliates/

      Thanks!

    I think that if affiliates are not falling into place, but you have good numbers (high EPC), you need to keep promoting yourself and continue getting those good numbers. When you do, affiliates will start to notice you and want to join you.

    Now I don't know if your product is part of a funnel, but to attract affiliates it should be. Maybe start with a $7 front end offer on "how to create an info product" then upsell to your "Super Product Assets" product, then maybe have another upsell or downsell. Now you've got a funnel and affiliates have many opportunities to improve on their profit per click. If you can add a high end product or a recurring membership, even better.

    But I'd say that if affiliates aren't biting, improve your product/funnel, build it out more, and take all the profits yourself until others decide to get in on the action. Always stay in motion, moving forward and waiting for no one.
