    Do you want to be an affiliate or create your own product which has an affiliate program? I can't tell.

    ClickBank will be a good place for you to start, however I would advise you to re-consider your advertising budget ($30 is literally nothing).

    If you want to create your own product, I'd advise against it. Until you've got some decent capital to use for marketing, optimizing etc.

    There are tons of existing products out there for you to promote as an affiliate, which given your $30 budget would be your best bet.

        Again, $100 isn't enough.

        It costs money to make a decent product. Then, once your product is created, in order for affiliates to even consider promoting, it will need to convert. This means spending money on copywriters which aren't cheap - as well as optimizing and tweaking all aspects of the sales funnel (from the sales page, to the up-sell/downsell process etc).

        Like I said, your best bet would be to go down the affiliate route, raise funds then create a product. Even better if you promote the other products in your niche and get goods results, then you can JV with the product creators and get recip mailings etc.

      If you don't want to spend the money then you have to do it all yourself. $30.00 is an ok start for hosting and domain, but you will need to put something into the affiliate network, most want some upfront cash to make sure there is money to pay for affiliate sales.

      You also need to know what to write about, If you do not want to pay for a quality product then you need extensive knowledge in your niche to create your own.

      Good Luck

    It seems to me that you don't really have a plan. You talk about selling your own product but you have no idea what product to create.

    See before you even contemplate advertising options, make sure you have a product first. Do some reseach on product creation, take action and create your product, that's the hardest part actually. After that you can start thinking about all the rest, because if you have a great product then there are plenty of options available. If you don't have a product, there are no options available...

      Very good point on having a gameplan first before creating your own product!

      That way, you spend $30 and get $250 worth of ads.

      This will work best for your very low budget. Once you make some money, you will need to spend more.

      Thank you very much Joecason very helpfull tip!

    Mike Filsaime and Tim Barber could have posted on your post here and you'd be S.O.L.

    Lol. I'm kidding.

    I would start with clickbank and paydotcom. They're the only ones that made money for me. Or use a service like 1shoppingcart. Set it up, build an affiliate sign up page, submit it to the affiliate directories, promote it on your site and in your email newsletter, and virtually everywhere you can (even on this site... in your sig). Good luck man.

  • Type in your niche into ClickBank (dot ) com and you will see lots of products.
    Look for ones with Gravity over 50 between prices 19.99 and 69.99 and promote it.

    For advertising use Facebook, Google, YouTube (FREE) BingAds etc. and test to see which one works.

    P.S Set up good autoresponders that ad value, then offer products

    I would say you need to develop a sound foundation in the "self improvement niche", it sounds like you know very little. I would join forums on this niche and find out what problem exist in the niche and what people are looking for, then find products the satisfy these issues
    Start writing a blog on this niche, begin promoting these products, and build up a reputation and following

    For product to market try this one http://www.trendaffairs.org/newlife. You get from Clickbank.
    Build an email with an autoresponder
    And for traffic you can use blog commenting and see video that are getting good views from youtube and create similar one on your youtube.
