The Greatest Form of Motivation In Affiliate Marketing
Success in anything requires that you "stick at it".. Don't give up.
However, this is not always so easy. There are going to be times that you become demotivated...
Some of the ways that you become demotivated may be:
- You're not realizing the success you’ve dreamed about.. and not as fast as you wanted.
- You're being bombarded with numerous "make money" opportunities and not knowing which to join
- You realize that a lot more work is required than had been originally been
So then how do you keep yourself motivated? Here are a few suggestions:
- Don’t think about the tasks at hand, think about the result of the tasks - Let’s say for example you have to submit a number of articles to article directories. Don’t think about the tedious task of submitting them… think about the result… having more traffic to your site, more sign-ups to your newsletter, which means more cash for you.
- Don’t stop reading – apart from reading motivational materials. Read about affiliate marketing, online business, internet marketing, etc. this doesn’t mean that you need to go out and continue buying this book and that book…. Read the books you already own. Also read about the niche you are involved in. If you are part of the affiliate program for a merchant that sells special coffees... Then read about coffees!
- Keep yourself organized – this cannot be stressed enough. Take a few days, a week if needed, and organize yourself – affiliate links, bookmarks, affiliate IDs and passwords, ebooks, etc. Spending hours looking for stuff and not finding them is frustrating..
- Get involved in WA community - when you do this, you would soon realize that there are a lot of people with issues / set backs similar to yours. More importantly, solutions to these problems are often posted and can be quickly and easily found.
- Continue to visual yourself in a position of wealth - Yes, visualization really helps.
Having said all of the above, I believe that the greatest motivation there is in affiliate marketing is...
Seeing Positive Results…
Getting emails saying "You just earn a commission"... receiving affiliate checks month after month… and seeing them grow month after month.
The next obvious question may be… so how is the best way to achieve this?
The Simple Answer...
Taking consisting action to implement *proven* systems/strategies/techniques.

Hello Amann.. I hope all is well with you.
It's true... not giving up is very important... but for many people, it's just so easy to give up.
