6 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE CHOOSING AN AFFILIATE PROGRAM
So do you want to choose an affiliate program or are you already involved in one?
These are six tips that you need to understand in depth. But first, understand that affiliate programs work like network marketing. I said it works like this because it involves downlines.
Now to get started. Once you understand these tips and use them wisely, you will have real success with the affiliate program of your choice.
Choose the right affiliate program.
Before choosing an affiliate program, make sure it is the right one. Check the company profile. If your affiliate program is one that is constantly progressing, so will you. If it is stagnant, you will inevitably be stagnant. Check the age of the company. Businesses in their first two years pay a lot, but run the risk of quitting too early. They are just babies. Older companies are trustworthy. Very reliable. They have a track record that you can easily verify and they have a good organization built from years of existence.
2. What are the products of the companies?
Please be very careful. Only a fine line separates multi-level marketing (MLM) or affiliate programs from illegality. However, you are unsure if the company has a product that it sells. Never join a pyramid scheme. I'm not an expert on that, but I guess pyramid schemes are scams. If the company does not offer a product or service, you better forget it.
3. Check the Compensation Plan.
Your main reason for joining an affiliate program is to earn money! Should I say that again? To make money! So please see the compensation plan. Make sure it fits you. When does the company pay? At what rate? How does the company pay? If you don't like him, just forget about it and find another affiliate program that you are comfortable with.
Keep in mind, though, that even if your commission schedule is small but safe, the work you do can help blow it all up. Think of $ 1 in 1000 places ($ 1000). It can be accomplished weekly. You can figure that out with almost all affiliate programs.
In short, choose a program that suits your needs.
4.Join free programs but ...
I suggest you join the free ones. I feel sorry for people who have tried various programs and paid a lot only to find that it is not the right one. But if you think you can afford it, then the choice is yours.
Once you've made up your mind, remember these last two tips!
5. Build your affiliate team.
This may be the most excruciating part of it all, but once you have an active downline team it's worth it.
Always remember, "for every twelve, there is always one Judas." There will always be bad apples in a barrel. Find the good guys, train them, help them, and you've just helped yourself.
How do you know the good guys? Easy; Beware of those who ask you questions, contact you and meet all the requirements in short periods of time. Go for them and you will be building a money order business.
6. Put yourself in the shoes of those you want to recruit.
Make things easy for them. Gather all the information and send it to him. I know it took you some time to get the information. Help them achieve it in less time. Probably in a few hours. Always contact them. Answer their questions. Give them all the help you can. Show them what to do and help them do it right.
