My first real experience with affiliate marketing

Great work well done!

good work and thanks for sharing your nice experience and a nice way to work.

I have no doubt you can do it. I've watched as you have continued to tweak your site and your offers and I've gained respect for your diligence.


That commission in 4 days as a new affiliate is very respectable! I wish more marketers would do as you do - ask the questions, take the advice and try it. I've seen you try one way and then another and another UNTIL you get the results you want.



Keep us updated on your affiliate activity - my guess is you can turn that into a reliable income stream.

congrats on the success.

I am going to suggest that throwing offers every week is a bit of a slippery slope. I would suggest the more you push offers the lower your open rate will become.

I would suggest getting yourself a e-mail address for the specific purpose of getting on peoples list to see how they do things. You will quickly be able to identify someone that is doing things right and those that are destined to end up with "dead" mailing lists. I can tell you from doing this for Y E A R S.. actually good affiliate content sellers through e-mail are few and far between.

You specifically are in an interesting position given the fact you have a mailing list that is targeted. I would introduce a new section to your weekly emails that high lite a grouping of videos that you have made on a specific topic. Just throwing out an example, say the Pentatonic Scale or something. You could then maybe offer a affiliate course on the same subject - if that makes sense.

I would maybe try to break this new section down over a period of a month or so. What is Pentatonic. How is Pentatonic different from Heptatonic why you should know this better and then hey I found this course that explains his stuff in more detail than I do if you are interested in learning more.

So following the principle of Gary Vaynerchuks Jab, Jab, Jab, left hook... you are giving giving giving giving and following up with the ask. in other words educate educate educate ask to pay to learn more. If you follow the advice from above about joining "lists" you will see this is something that is not done often - as in hardly ever.

The less it is about buy buy buy and it becomes give give give.. they will be more inclined to buy when the time comes.

An important note... If you have read anything I have written on this main board... my BIGGEST pet peeve with your jo average affiliate marketer is selling something they have not bough. Buy the course you are going to sell - ensure that the people from your list will get something out of the purchase. YOU suggesting a product in terms of "Brand" is equal to you creating a product and selling it if that makes sense. It is YOUR credibility that is on the line.

Hope that Helps!

Well you do a good job ,congratulations .Also dont be lazy amd start working hard and create as much content as you can and aim to get rich .Its not so much about money its about the happy and free life yiu will get

Your numbers are good. What you need to find in Clickbank is an offer that provides upsells or membership. This will get you growing, continual commissions. Also, with your 20%, keep offering them more things that are similar to what they had bought. Buyers are buyers are buyers as long you get them stuff that will help them with their pain.

Wow, Fairplay. I think maybe you should take a look around to see what other affiliate programs you can find for future videos. By sounds of things, it's because Amazon only pays small commissions whereas ClickBank pays a much higher percentage. Sounds like this could become very lucrative for you.

Awesome man! Great job!

I think you need to mention more about what you are doing, if you expect useful answers from us. I would say, keep growing your e-mail list and scale it up. Try to determine the needs of the people on your list, and try to come up with a monthly service or product, that they would use month after month.

great work mate, well done!
is there different in open rate if you send weekly emails or daily emails?
thanks

A list of subscribers does not guarantee that you will make sales when you are an affiliate on Clickbank.

It can work for some but not for others.

There are some big time affiliates out there who crush it and don't have a list.
