In the time I have been online I have learned that there is a big difference in the strategy you want to use when being an affiliate marketer.that depends on what you are looking for and what your goal is.

Is your goal Instant one off sales or recurring sales?

As you probably know there are two fundamental types of sales .

1. Sales coming from organic traffic sources

2. and sales coming from paid traffic sources.

If you are new online it is not always easy to know the difference, the different strategies and mindset behind these two types of sales and when to use them.

But from my experience and my own journey I have come to realize that there is a big difference between attracting recurring customers and getting instant sales.

Organic marketing

When creating a website you will want to focus on Organic marketing through SEO.

That is why learning how to find the right Keywords are so important to learn and having a super Keyword tool to help you.

At Wealthy affiliate you get in depth training in different Keyword strategies and they have the Keywordsearchtool Jaaxy that is a really amazing tool for finding the best keywords to rank with.

You want people to come to your website when they search for a cerain keyword or product you promote. right?

Organic marketing is super powerful when it works.

Your Organic audiences are coming to your website by their own will and are interested in your content.

You attract them with your Keywords and you get them interested in your website content.

But there are plenty of other organic marketing strategies other in addition to your website you can use. You can use a variety of organic social marketing strategies and organic email strategies.

Organic sales may take longer time, but will often result in more quality customers because they are more likely to buy from you over and over again.

Instant marketing with paid ads

This type of marketing is often used together with Paid ads to get a quick sale or to run short campaigns for a limited time period.

Black friday sales and christmas are good examples of Instant marketing with paid ads.

If you are going to get paid ads to work for you it is always good to have a list to promote them to with people who are just looking to buy new stuff.

And you will need highly optimized optinpages, salespages, emails and social ads to get maximum effect.

This demands a lot of split testing which implies a lot of fails before you find the ones that is working for you.

At wealthy Affiliate you get a good training in doing PPC (pay per click) for the purpose of getting instant sales.

Who is your audience?

But another important thing is that you need to know your audience mindset well to get maximum effect no matter if you use organic marketing or paid ads.


The right offer for your audience

What is the right offer to your audience? It is simple but not easy.

This is where your content plays an important role.

You need to target your content to the audence you want to attract.

Your website, your optins, your salespages, your email campaigns, your social media.

Low ticket offers demands a different sales strategy and process than a high ticket sale.

Traffic

My first year online i focused on creating content and learning SEO.

I helped people online by sharing my journey and my results.

Second year I focused on creating an email list and now I focus on different ways of generating traffic.

I have learned that without traffic there will never be any sales.

I also learned about the many different ways to get organic traffic and paid traffic.

If you are new online all of this may seem kind of overwhelming.

Make a plan - Create your own agenda

If you are new online the most important thing you can do is to create valuable content from the start, share your journey and your results.

My best tips is to make a step by step plan and a strategy for each year to grow your business.

Make some clear goals you want to achieve and focus. Do not let others set the agenda for your online business. Only you should do that.

I have leaarned that it is easy to get distracted by other peoples personal opinions and views on things. It is of course important to listen to what others have to say, but you should make your own opinion based on your own goals and your story and journey.

You need a long term mindset if you want to succeed online. And you need to make a comittment to yourself. Be accountable to yourself. Take responsability for your online business.

No matter what people say out there - there are no shortcuts or quick ways to overnight success. You need to put effort into it and not be afraid to fail.

Learn and adjust when things are not working out the way you want. You can make things work with just small adjustments.

Following the Wealthy Affiliate blueprint is a great way to start if you want to learn how to create a website, valuable content SEO, and monetize your website in different ways.

It is the best way to create a solid online foundation.

To me it has been a priceless platform where I never stop learning from.

Use the Wealthy affiliate blog to build an audience and generate more traffic.

As a Wealthy Affiliate premium member you get access to a lot of training, tools and a community of all levels of marketers that can help you move forward.

I love the Wealthy Affiliate Platform because it helped me build a solid foundation and have given me solid knowledge about affiliate marketing.

Explore and expand yourself

Another important thing I learned so far is to explore and go out of the box pays off and will only expand your experience, feeling and knowledge.

Challenge your mindset, challenge your way of doing things to get different results.

Explore different ways of doing online marketing.

Do not restrict yourself to one way of thinking, one strategy, one platform only or one product only.

Explore and practice what you learn.

A huge part of your online journey and learning process online is exploring different opportunities, offers and strategies to eventually find out what works best for you.

Do not be afraid to try out something new that you never tried before that you may feel will help you forward no matter what others may say..

This is how you grow my friend. By taking the first step into the unknown, learn, practice and explore.

You can do this! You can make it work

In the end it all boils down to you. I know you can do this if you really want it and comitt to it.

So many never start or quit too soon because they do not believe they can make it work.

Well it is up to you to decide, but one thing is sure. You will never succeed if you never start.

This is what you need to do

1. Start now

2. Become a premium member after the 7 day free trial

3. Build your online empire step by step with a longterm mindset


Hope this serves you well!

Great advice!

Thank you!

Gaining traffic -- that's what I still need to do. Writing and websites are doing okay, but I just need more visitors! Therefore, that's my ongoing focus.

I think that is a great focus Fran!

Some excellent advice and motivation here, Hilde! It sure seems to be working for you, and it CAN work for many others too!

Well done, as usual!
