How To Get Affiliates To Build A Targeted Mailing List Of Buyers And Make Sales For You?

If you find getting targeted traffic, especially buyer traffic difficult, then I can reveal a much faster and better way then SEO. Most of us have been told that affiliate marketing is the easiest way to make money online but for most of us it is not!

Most affiliate products are dominated by the Guru's and their army of super affiliates who have mastered traffic generation and list building so that by constructing one email broadcast to their big buyers mailing list, they earn 80% of all affiliate commissions while 20% is shared among the 10,000's like us who mostly make very little or nothing at all.

Without a big highly responsive mailing list you simply cannot compete with those 20% who earn 80% of all the money. It is that old 80/20 rule where 20% earn 80% and 80% earn the remaining 20% most of them earning zero. So unless you have mastered traffic generation, stop being an affiliate for now and instead create your own information product instead.

Start by doing research in your niche. Then read related blogs and articles making notes. Finally write your own ebook or create a 4 to 8 part short video training set that solves a problem or answers a question. You could get affiliates to sell it for you as a vendor giving them 75% or more of the selling price. These affiliates will drive buyer traffic and build your mailing list on your squeeze page of your site.

This method makes getting traffic something you no longer need to worry about. Also the list of buyers will allow you to build a relationship first then sell related products to them thereby making you more money in less time. This could jump start your online business career and set you up for life as the go to expert in your niche? What do you think? I will start doing this to test if it works in my business.Anyone else doing this today?

Update: I have written more detailed information about this in my blog post:

Interesting ...

Some interesting thoughts of action!

Great information Stephen & Jennifer. Never knew about the 80/20 rule. LEARNED A LOT TODAY. Thank you.
Have a great day...........Frank

The catch 22 is how to get visitors in the first place to download your ebook, as you are not a recognised expert in your field.

Read again I mentioned how. affiliates get the traffic, sales and signups for you.

I know that, but where do you get the affiliates from when you are not a recognised expert?

Who would put their name and reputation and time promoting for an unknown?

Affiliates from JVZoo and Clickbank when you create a vendor account.

Nice idea.....thank you for sharing this with us. That is being a true networker!

I have heard of this before, of course, but since it's early stages for me, I haven't implemented any of it. I subscribed to many blogs in my niche and received many free ebooks. It's an enourmous amount of work. Those gurus that you mentioned, they usually have someone to help them, a team of people. Let us know how you go, would be nice to find out what it really takes to make it work.
I do believe you need to have a decent traffic and authority first in your niche.

Bluette,

Affiliate do the traffic for you and your product creates your authority.

This is a really helpful strategy. I've heard it said, the money is in the email list.

Yep, I with DoubleTap...need a little training on how to write an e-book and put some quality videos together would be wonderful...Are you creating such a training SandJ?

cschlup54,

I will once I finished creating my products and putting them out to the world?

Hmmmm, with a little training on how to write an e-book and put together some quality vids... I think I could do this! Thank you both, you wouldn't believe it if I told you how awesome your timing was on this!!!

the challenge is to establish yourself as an authority to be able to offer your product for affiliates to promote for you

ultimately it comes back to basic SEO, without that foundation, it is like building a house on the sand

all the best,

adaba063,

If you get affiliates to promote your product they do the SEO and send sales and build your list for you. So you don't have to do that yourself.Also your site and product becomes your authority?
