Who is Making 5k+ from Affiliate Marketing Every Month?

Are you doing email marketing?

The niche you are into really matters, what niche are you into?

I would imagine there are a quite a few people here that do $5K easily. And some of them post here quite regularly imparting their wisdom.

There are thousand of them that get more than $5000 per month from affiliate. To earn big, you must think big. Change your mindset and brave yourself to invest more to your affiliate business.

You have to understand,to earn 5K a month you will need to work on your website like a regular job,maybe even more.
A lot of marketers are thinking the success on the internet is luck,successing here is nothing but luck.Work hard,work every day and you could make more then 5k a month.

Thanks for the reply warriors... Now my question is that do u know anyone who offers one on one internet marketing coaching here? Because I really want to scale up my earnings using a combination of different methods...

Regards

I have a list with 60k customers fully targeted, so dont need to make much efforts for having my 3k to 5k a month. Anybody needs help with emails , contact or pm me!

IS really bad that you are not building a list.

You could earn at least twice more than you are earning now if you do it well

I make in the 2k range from a very small list and just keep making it bigger. There is a ton of people making over 5K. Lists are your traffic not Googles. It would stand to reason that traffic on demand is better than waiting for Google to Slap your living out of your hands. SEO is awesome for some, but those are the people who end up starting all over when Google gives them a slap. My review site is no where near as nice or content rich as the ones I compete with and I rank #1. Silly because I use tricks that work today. I don't rely on that money because they won't work tomorrow.

$5K a month is not hard if you integrate an offline approach with an online presence. For example, if you are in the making money online niche, I find it alot easier to put ads in magazines and papers to drive traffic to a squeeze page than it is to sell online to Internet savvy people. Here's why I speculate that it works so well. The people reading Small Business Opportunities are a slightly different group of people than people here on the Warrior Forum. I have found that the people looking at the magazines are for the most part - True Newbies.

As an example: I have a fantastic eBook I give away at theultimatebusiness.net which describes in detail my offline approach. When I get traffic from offline methods, my opt-in rate is higher and I make more sales from the affiliate links within the eBook. Funny thing is, I recommend these products as valuable tools needed to do the offline business. BUT... when I give the eBook away on forums and blogs (like Warrior Forum) I find many people won't opt-in as they want an online business and are themselves Internet Savvy. They also don't buy much from the links within the eBook as they recognize them as affiliate links. I'm not sure why people go out of their way to avoid clicking on affiliate links as that's how we pay for providing free info, but whatever...

Here's the interesting part: If the Internet Savvy people followed the advice in the eBook and linked that traffic with their opt-in and offers they would make a killing as this traffic, being Real Newbies is ripe for just about all the IM Affiliate Offers. Many of them never even heard of Clickbank.

SO... Yes, with this method.... $5k / month is absolutely obtainable as the circulation of magazines is super high and you only need a 1" ad to produce good results.

P.S. Everyone should be building a list as that is where the residual income comes from. You are also not appealing in the least to a JV if you have a small list.

I hope this helps.

I have some lists in my few niches, but they aren't very lucrative because I'm not very good with e-mail marketing.

I'm green at listbuilding and don't do too well at it. The lion's share of my earnings are straight off websites ... but I earn a significant portion from setting up private referral arrangements with local businesses where with SEO and PPC I generate $250 to $600 + commissions (some commissions include a % of the value of the new business so each commission differs). This business alone accounts for approximately $4 to $5K per month.

I also promote a very niche software product that pays me a recurring commission. I've generated most sales via my websites, but have generated some sales via e-mail marketing. The recurring commission is now quite high and the churn rate is low so it's very stable income.

I earn another few thousand each month from website affiliate sales - primarily in-depth reviews based on my use of products. Just look around your house and the software you use and you'll be amazed at the quality of reviews you can write that help people and sell products very well.

I continue working on listbuilding because I believe it's a MUCH better long term strategy, but present cash flow needs require I continue with SEO which how I got into this IM thing in the first place. Over time I hope to move to a model more similar to Alexa's and MYOB's ... but I'm not proving to be very good at e-mail marketing while I tend to sell well directly off of my sites.

My revenue stems from not very much traffic, but it is targeted. My content is thorough and based on using products. I receive emails from my sites from people who thank me for helping with their buying decision. Why I can't turn this into successful e-mail marketing (or at least take e-mail marketing alone to the 5 figure / mo. level) is beyond me. My point is my website content is decent and so it sells.

I've invested a great deal of time and money in learning email marketing with little success. Part of me wants to scrap it and focus on building high-traffic authority sites that generate decent income and build lists as a complement (rather than the main model). However, another part of me recognizes relying solely on websites is short-sighted. Time will tell how my business develops. I'll definitely continue working with local businesses because that's been incredibly lucrative for me with very little effort and investment ... but is largely SEO-based incorporating some PPC.

I write all of this because I know many people are in similar positions as me ... realize a list is important, but struggle with it and probably wish to just build out great sites and focus on revenue from those sites.

If this is you, there's a blogger by the name of Mitz who publishes Lets Build Websites and Computer Tips who generates a lot of income directly from her sites. She builds lists (I'm on them), but doesn't promote via the lists at all except to send people back to her blog posts.

I think if you are going to focus on listbuilding, it's incredibly important to build a brand and a true audience who cares what you have to say. This requires an incredible amount of work in the email sequence ... arguably more so than website content. I think Alexa is right when she discusses the "continuity" approach from freebie through e-mail sequence. This requires careful planning, excellent knowledge of your niche and attracting the right subscribers. All of this is more work than simply slamming up a squeeze page and blasting out emails.

At the end of the day, regardless whether you focus on monetizing your website or earning via e-mail marketing, or both, it's important you promote only excellent offers that convert. I've generated the lion's share of my revenue from a handful of offers of products that I use (or have used) and that are high-quality.

$xx,xxx/mo

For those that asked about Amazon emails to customers with current offers, I get three different subjects.

They happen to be in the niches that I have affiliate websites about. I have ordered from them before, they seem to track what I look at, which would include for my sites and myself and then I will get an email on their latest offers for _________.

This is good, as I will sometimes look through and have a sales offer to put up on one of my sites.

It just seems to tip the trigger when you look at enough "stuff".

5k that is my goal.

i plan on reaching that target using you tube marketing

I'm working on that goal. I haven't hit it yet.. You make a great point get connected with affiliates. I'm on my way with quite a few affiliates. I know you need just a few big ones, but my question is How many do you have? More than 20, over 100? I'm just wondering

$5K is pretty easy with a few clients. You only need about 5 clients to hit $10K/month and that's with very minimal work.

My income streams range from SEO for clients, coaching students, CPA, affiliate marketing & some email marketing. My growth areas for 2013 are CPA and FB marketing. I see them as the best return on investment but SEO for clients is my bread and butter.

I don't like to limit my income from one source.

Yes, I am making $7k+ per month with affiliate marketing.
I must mention that affiliate marketing without a laser targeted email list is very hard. All my earnings come from my email list.
When you have an email list, Just go to affiliate networks(W+, JVzoo...), Pick a high converting and related to your email list offer, Copy the swipe email which vendor provided and send it to your email list. After hours see commissions rolling to your paypal account. That's it!

Making affiliate website and writing products review is also well but a little harder than making an email list.

Good Luck

i m not earning that figure.
