One of the easiest and fastest way to make money online in through affiliate marketing. This is when you send visitors to someone else’s product sales page, they make the sale and deliver the product, and you get a percentage of the sale price as you commission (usually 50% or more for digital products).
The benefits of this are

1.You can get started almost immediately because you don’t have to create a product, write the sales page, design the website, develop marketing materials, or set up the ordering, billing & delivery system.

2.You have almost no investment of time because you don’t have to do the customer support or deal with billing or technical issues.

3.You have nearly zero risk because you already know the product sells. So if you send visitors you will get paid.

Looking at these benefits, it’s clear that affiliate marketing is the way to go!
The downside is…
After all your hard work of generating traffic to the sales page, you will never see any of those visitors again. Most of them will not buy on their first visit, which means you’re losing over 90% of the traffic right off the top. And of the 10% or less that do buy, the product owner will be able to sell to them again, but you will not.

What’s the solution?
Simply put, you need to capture the name and email of your visitors *before* sending them to the product sales page. This way you can follow up with them and keep sending them back to the sales page to increase your chances of making the sale. And if you’re really on top of your game, you’ll then send to a pre-sales page in between.

Here’s what these affiliate marketing strategies will do for you:
You’ll be building your own list of potential customers that you can market to again and again.
You’ll be pre-selling them by providing valuable information and then casually linking to the product sales page in the context of this information.

In order to set a system like this up, you will need the following  affiliate marketing tools

A Squeeze Page (with video)
One or more content-rich Pre-Selling Pages
At least a 5-Part Email Followup Series

The video squeeze page is where you’ll direct your traffic instead of directly to the product sales page. It captures the name and email of your visitors and puts them into your autoresponder, which then begins sending out the 5-part email series. Then it redirects them to your pre-selling pages after they subscribe to your email series.

All of this together increases your chances of making the sale by up to 500% so it’s well worth the effort of setting it up. And once it’s set up, it runs automatically – you just keep sending visitors to the squeeze page.

If you don’t have the time or expertise to set it all up yourself, you can use something like Affiliate Silver Bullet. Services like this design the enter system (the video, the video squeeze page, the email series, the content pages, etc). The benefit is that it’s much less expensive then you could do it yourself, and it’s instantly set up.

The other route you can take is to hire people on Elance to create and implement the various aspects for you. Either way, it’s an important step that you need to take if you’re going to be serious about your business.

If you’re like I once was, practically broke and scraping
the bottom of the barrell to pay the bills each month, then
this is one post you MUST read!

Why? It can truly SAVE YOU from getting a bad credit rating,
and even destitution or poverty.

Tell me, how low can we let ourselves go before we make a
decision to turn our lives around?

It amazes me to see that some poor individuals can go VERY
LOW, before they aim up high again.

It’s sad, and certainly a waste of time … especially when
you know what I know!

Take a look here:

You see, I was as broke as you are now, maybe even more…
So much so, I was absolutely desperate to find a way out.

But as desperate as I was, I was still picky… I mean,
there are some things that I wouldn’t do, and some I just
CAN’T do, because I don’t have the necessary skills. You
have to be practical right?

Then I came across a relatively unknown marketing method
that nearly ALL the corporate companies use to advertise
their offers, and discovered that affiliates can make MUCH
MORE MONEY than they would with regular affiliate programs.

GREAT! Because I’d been wasting my time and effort with
piddling little commission payments that didn’t even make a
dint in my mountain of debt.

I set myself a goal to work this new way for 6 months, and
then I realized at 15 weeks that I was already out of
monthly debt! I had paid ALL the bills, and wasn’t behind
any longer.

Wow! That was really an epiphany for me, and I moment in
time that I’ll never forget… Man, it felt good!

That’s where you now have an advantage. The ebook is
written, and it’s just 55 pages long. You can click the link
below to check it out, then read it and follow the
instructions.

PS. One thing I must let you know too is that once you read
this ebook, you must commit to taking the necessary steps to
promote using the strategies I outline. Hey they’re free, so
there are no hidden costs involved. In fact, ANYONE can do
this it’s that easy.

You’ll be just as excited as I was when you realise just how

Affiliate programs will enable a business to generate a lot of traffic and therefore boost sales through promotion by third party sales or sites.  It’s also a cost effective way to advertise your products and services as you pay only for the efforts that  actually turn into sales.

Creating your own affiliate system can be either easy or quite daunting, all depending on how many affiliates you want to recruit, as well as your payment policy and the type of product that you are selling.

As for your affiliate systems, there are two options for your business – outsource the entire system or run your own affiliate system through your own web host.  Each one boasts its own advantages as  well as disadvantages.

If you only have a small amount of affiliates, then you can run your own affiliate software.  If you plan  to recruit a large number of affiliates, then you  will probably need to outsource.  The reason for  this, is because you’ll find it easy to deal with a large number of sign ups, track payments, monitor clicks, etc.

There are numerous types of affiliates out there to choose from.  There’s the pay per sale, there an individual is paid only if a sale is generated from the affiliate’s link.  It’s the least attractive to people, unless the product is in high demand  and the most profitable for business.

Another type is the pay per lead, where you pay only for traffic.  With this type, the affiliate is paid only if a visitor is generated from the site of the affiliate.  It’s attractive to affiliates although costly to web site owners due to the  possibility of non sale visits.

Something to consider is whether or not you’ll approve affiliates manually or automatically.  It’s normally recommended to start affiliate programs with your established customer sites then progress to new ones.

If you are dealing with pay per clicks, you may  have to control the affiliates as the quality of visitors will be a huge factor when it comes to the generation of sales.  By manually reviewing, you’ll also be able to judge the website or individual affiliates to see if it’s in the best interest of your company.

If you choose to use your own affiliate system, one of your biggest challenges will be how to pay  affiliates a percentage of what you end up receiving from customers.  To do this, you can rely on software such as Affiliate shop to help you track and manage commissions.

I received an interesting email today about this product called IM Trustworthy.

Omar Martin has come up with a brilliant product to outwit the dodgy dealers who are abound online who have been destroying the internet marketing business.

At times it can be quite a task to  separate the honest and ethical Internet Marketers from the scammers. We have all seen the recent product launches and scams lately and to be honest, do you actually know who to trust anymore?I’m sure you know the type of websites I’m referring to. They look great and they sound so convincing.

How do you really know who the good honest marketers are anymore?

Are  their testimonials true?

Are their income snap shots true?

Are their  sales letter true?

It’s a sad time for the internet marketing business and the really trustworthy guys who work in it. So how do you distinguish yourself as a good guy?

Take a look at the video and the seal of approval you can have on your own sites today. It’s free to join and can only make your reputation better:

Have a look at IM Trustworthy and let’s start cleaning up the Internet Marketing industry together.I most certainly want to be known as an honest marketer so this is the way to go.

Like Page Builder Review

Dave Nicholson has came up with many different products in the past but this one has to be his best yet called ‘Like Page Builder‘.

Like Page Builder is a wonderfully simple tool that allows you to create Facebook ‘like’ pages in a matter of minutes.

I have used this product myself and I am going to reveal my thoughts on exactly how well this product does what it claims to do.

First and foremost a like page is pretty much like your own little mini website displayed on Facebook where you can promote yourself and your products to anyone who ‘likes’ your page.

Like Page Builder is a piece of software which allows you to create your very own Facebook ‘like’ page with minimum effort and time. Those of you out there who have already got a ‘like’ page online will know that this can be a very time consuming task. With this piece of software it can be completed in a fraction of the time. All you are required to do is to fill in a few boxes with whatever you want to display on your page and click a few times and you’re done. It really is as simple as that.

But! That is not all, you also receive step-by-step videos teaching you exactly how to use the software to its maximum potential. Meaning anyone who can read and write can create their own ‘like’ page, regardless of their skills on a computer. This I believe will be a huge help to those wishing to get on Facebook but don’t really have the skills to create a ‘like’ page themselves. With this software all of the complicated work is done for you, reducing time and effort needed.

Probably the most impressive thing about this software is that it can be used to do something which NO OTHER software can do. It has been cleverly programmed so that as soon as someone hits the ‘Like’ button they are automatically taken to a page of your choice, this could be a page giving away a free gift such as a report. Why is this so ingenious? There is no opt-in involved! The gift is received instantly! All the subscriber must do is click ‘Like’ and then go and read the report or course they have received.

All of these benefits from a simple, easy to use piece of software which costs next to nothing! It appears that Dave has once again released something the Internet Marketing world has never before seen but desperately needs. I wholly endorse this product and for those of you out there who thought you would never be able to create your own Facebook ‘like’ page, think again!

I now have my first product live online,its been quite a journey these past few weeks but i,ve finally got there.It has been really interesting and i,ve learned a great deal and it has also been very frustrating at times trying to get things done correctly but i suppose that is part of the learning process.

My new product is The Affiliate Marketing Path,its all about best places to look for products and methods to increase affiliate earnings and lots of other information and tips,its a really interesting ebook,definitely worth a read.

I have the ebook on Clickbank,an excellent place to put your digital products on,once your product is approved you dont have to anything as everything is automated.

There is still work to be done promoting and getting traffic to the site,very important as no traffic equals no sales.Once i have this site up and running i,ll be looking to start another project,hopefully it wont take as long to do the next one as now i have more idea what to do and getting things in the right order.

Ive got a couple of things i might take a look at for my next product and later on in the coming months there will be some major product developments in the pipeline,all will be revealed as and when they happen.There will be a lot of hard work ahead but i,m looking forward to the challenge as i really want to do this full time.

I,ll leave this for now as i have lots of work to do but will be updating very soon.

With the state of the world’s economy today, more people every day are beginning to look to the internet to find ways to start an online business.Although there are many ways to earn money online,a most proven way is through a form of marketing called affiliate marketing.

Affiliate marketing is not a new state of the art thing; it’s actually been around for sometime.So what exactly is affiliate marketing. Its all about Commission based sales pretty much sums up what affiliate marketing is if you are familiar with that.

The definition of affiliate marketing is the promotion of a product by a third party,in return for a percentage of the proceeds from any sales.In the earlier years,the sales were tracked on paper,but now todays affiliate marketers have little to do with the allocation of the commission payments.Everything today is automated giving them more time to spend on marketing of the affiliate products.

Picking a program for an income stream is mostly done by signing up with one of the major affiliate product networks, Clickbank being the most dominating. Once you are signed up,you use this program to find suitable products that you can market from within the affiliate network. Once you have chosen your product, it’s easy,start your marketing process.

Many marketers use either paid forms of advertising, such as PPC (Pay Per Click), or in the form of free advertising, such as writing articles, and publishing them with large article directories, such as EzineArticles.com, HubPages.com, and Squidoo.com. The article itself will have a tracking link to your affiliate’s product, and if it’s clicked on and the customer purchases the product, you make a commission on that product.

Alot of affiliate marketers have a website used to attract visitors. On this site, the affiliate marketer will place advertisements, such as banners or a text link, and offers for other affiliate products. In the event a visitor clicks and purchases a product, you receive commission from that sale, its that simple.

One of the Best Affiliate Marketing Programs online today is without doubt Clickbank.Getting signed up with Clickbank for a free affiliate account is very easy.After doing so, you have the choice of promoting many thousands of products Clickbank offers within their marketplace, within minutes. Clickbank is a highly reputable company that lets anyone sell digital products online.

All products involved in Clickbank must provide instant access to purchases that way people get their purchases seconds after. Clickbank is a modern day marketplace.By adding Clickbank products and services to their site or their ads, affiliates earn commission offered by the vendors (can be up to 75%) on sales.

You can also make a profit as a reseller by giving referrals to other affiliates and vendors to use Clickbank. Affiliate marketers will probably research a product to see if it’s worth selling.The most common methods include researching blogs, and reviews.

I have just scratched the surface of Affiliate Marketing but have given a little insight into this excellent program and basically what its about.Take a look at The Affiliate Marketing Path,you,ll find loads more information and tips.

I can honestly say John Thornhill,s One Month Mentor program is by far the best thing ive done online by a very long way.Before i started with this program i suppose i was like alot of people looking to start an online business just jumping from one program to another eBook to another course and the latest software etc etc.

I wrote a couple of blog posts titled “The Sharks keep on Circling” and “Life as a Little Fish in the Big Online Ocean”,i think these two posts summed me
up,i was going absolutely nowhere and my bank balance was going down too.I thought there has to be something out there where you can build an
honest and ethical business online,i was just so sick of been bombarded with hype day after day.

It was the end of October2010 when i first got an email about Free Monthly Websites from John and Dave Nicholson,this was the dawn of a new era for
me,i thought North East guys,down to earth,honest,i just maybe thought i,ll get some good information from this.

From there I purchased Mentorship Monthly and  the One Month Mentor program and theres no looking back now,only one direction thats forward,i,m just so happy i,m on the right track now,still alot of hard work ahead but i,m prepared for that but its also nice to know that John is just a phone call or an email away if i have a problem.

The one big thing i like about John is he tells you how it is and shows you how to do things rather than just telling you what to do,its all nicely laid out in step by step easy to follow videos and i,m not bombarded with offers day after day,John doesn,t promote crap like six clicks of the mouse then you
are rich.

This course is not some hundred page,thirty chapter eBook which by the time you have waded through it you have forgotten everything because of info overload.

The main thing i have learned from this program is i want to run my online business like John,honest,ethical and with integrity and with subscibers and customers interests at heart.I dont want to be like some of the so called guru,s who just bang out offer after offer,i dont think they have their subscribers interest at heart,just their bank balances.

I urge anyone reading this who has just come online or someone who has been going down the same route as i was who is looking to start an online business is to get on John,s One Month Mentor program,you will not regret it,you,ll find that it,ll be the best decision you,ll ever make to get started with your business.

I,m really positive about the future now i have the foundations laid and i,m just starting to put the building blocks up.To think just a few weeks ago i
didnt have a blog or a website and wasnt sure whether i wanted to carry on,thank you so much John Thornhill,i cant speak highly enough about you.

Well – Did the subject line make you wonder?

I thought it was a pretty good description of many people
online today.
An analogy of what people search for and spend money
on…

What I mean by that , is that most folk know that nuclear
fusion would be the greatest source of energy we could hope
for……

The only problem is that nobody has yet figured out how to
make it work!

Remind you of anyone?

Lets be honest for a moment -
So many sites seem to be promising us results that could
only be possible if we did understand nuclear physics, and
if nuclear fusion was actually a reality!

You and I know it’s not – but that doesn’t stop many many
people from continually searching and spending their cash on
systems supposedly incorporating the latest in nuclear
fusion technology……. (big laugh)

So given that we know it doesn’t exist what then…
Well we have to assume that standard electricity is the
next best thing….. or is it?

Can I assume that you know how to change a light bulb?

Maybe even how to wire a plug? (don’t panic – it’s just
an analogy)

But if I asked you to come round to my house and rewire the
place to incorporate dimmer switches to all rooms and have
the Hi-Fi routed from the main room through to all the
bedrooms with remote channel changing for each, then maybe
some spotlights to the garden and a few spare sockets for
extra entertainment devices both indoor and for external
use…. and lets not forget the rest of the household
appliances….well …..

I think at some point 95% of us would be shouting WHOA….

Sharply followed by a No Way – I’m not an electrician….I
was nervous enough changing the light bulb!!

And who could blame us?

How are we really supposed to know what’s safe and how it
all works?

To me that analogy is of the vast majority who know nuclear
fusion doesn’t exist, but who are struggling along with SEO,
Site Building, HTML, PHP, Social Networking etc. etc.

The list goes on and on….

Hey I’m sure some folk are qualified electricians, and
others are qualified at all the things needed to succeed on
the web.

But if we’re still being honest – 95% of people would
still be struggling wouldn’t they?

They’d be more like a new boyscout wondering how many
matches he had left to light the rain soaked twigs of his
campfire, eventually running out of matches and crying to
go home!

So what’s the solution?

Well I think it’s Candles.

Who doesn’t know how to light a Candle?

And once you do light them – they just keep burning, don’t
they…

OK – I know what you’re thinking ….
How much energy are we going to get from One Candle? …
nothing like the others are aiming for right?

The point is – we can all light a candle.

BUT WHAT IF ………

What if there was a way to light 10 or 50 or 100 candles?
What if someone with a system could show you how to get
1000 candles lit and burning at the same time?……

Enough Already ….. you must be tiring of the analogies by
now.

The point I was getting to is to STOP searching for the
systems that will never exist or only exist for the select
few…

…………and grab with both hands a simple yet effective
system that will provide as much income if not more than
some of it’s higher priced and sophisticated counterparts.

And one such system is to follow the ‘Step by Step’
methods that John Thornhill uses on a daily basis.

He knows nothing about Nuclear Fusion, and I think he gets
his wife to change the light bulbs in his house…..

But he does have a package that has and is making him a
full time living online.

He uses ebay’s traffic to drive visitors to his websites
and build his lists, allowing him to profit wildly from
affiliate marketing and product creation.

Your Own eBook Business

Yet he does it all so simply and easily by automating many
many aspects of his business.

The proof of keeping things simple yet effective can be seen
on his site – where he happily shows his powerseller feedback
scores (how many who make big claims are actually prepared to do that?)

If you can see the value of having 1000′s of simple
candles, all burning automatically, you light them at your
will (and they are those ones that never burn out!!)….

What I mean is – John will not only Show You Step By Step -
but will also Give you every product he sells on ebay, the
templates, the tools, the whole system…….
Broken down into easily managed chunks – so you can set it
all up on Auto Pilot at your own pace.

Your Own eBook Business

Then provide ongoing support and a members forum to help
you along the way, all while keeping you updated with new
products monthly and any new techniques he finds
effective….

So if you’re really looking for something that is as
simple as lighting a candle and following some step by step
instructions – from someone who has already helped thousands
just like you…..

Then I believe you are going to love the help and support
you’ll get with John’s Package.

This is your chance to have your own business, a business you
own and operate, you profit from, you succeed with…..
the major difference is this…

……. You’ll be in business
~~FOR Yourself but NOT BY Yourself! ~~

So take a look at what John will do to help you get to
where you want to be.
And while you’re reading every word of what he piles into
the package – do give a thought to whether you want to keep
searching for Nuclear Fusion tactics that don’t exist,
Or years training to become a qualified expert with all that
Electrickery stuff —

Or whether you’d find it easier to just keep Lighting
Candles for a hour or so a day that will lead to the full
time income you know would like to get sooner rather than
later!

Regards,

Joe

P.S. Remember – Once lit, your candles will keep burning,
Just as once you get John’s package set up, your income
will just keep growing.
