Followup via email is probably the best way to convert prospects into customers,webinars are a great way to close sales as well.

Follow Ups and Broadcasts. A combo

Wow, so many buzzwords in such a short post...

Anyways, you have to realize that, as an affiliate, it's not your job to "close" the sale. You are not selling a product, you are selling attention.

You're job, as an affiliate, is to send prospects to the vendor's sales funnel (usually a sales page) open to the idea of buying.

Your process is simple. Create a path from first contact to that click to the vendor that "primes the pump" for the sale. Leave the "closing" to the vendor.

Here's a path that has been successful for many affiliates:

> First contact. Could be a link in an author bio, a paid ad, YouTube video, whatever. The sole job of the first contact is to get a click to your

> Landing page. Could be a traditional squeeze page, an article with a content upgrade, or something else that gets the person to opt-in to your mailing list.

> Email sequence

1. Introduction & delivery of lead magnet
2. Follow-up on lead magnet offering assistance
3. Defining the prospect's problem or desire
4. Paint a picture of what solving the problem or achieving the desire - make them see the end result.
5. Bring up your product as a solution, explaining why you're recommending it - actual reviews are also helpful.
6. Remind them of the logical, rational reasons to check out your recommendation.
7. Offer a bonus (like a 'quick start guide') if they fill out a form with the receipt info

If they fill out the bonus form, they get moved to a buyer's list for that product. If they don't, they get moved to a general list. Use broadcast emails to entice interested subscribers to another email sequence for another product. After a few months, you can circle back and try to get them back into the sequence for the original product.

Combine a process like this with targeted, engaged subscribers and good, relevant products, and you should do well.
