Tom Antion: Affiliate Marketing For Beginners


Affiliate Marketing for Beginners

When I'm speaking to brand new Internet marketers there is always some confusion about affiliate marketing. Undoubtedly the new person (this may be you) has heard you can make lots of money quickly with other people's products. That's true, but it's not as easy as it sounds. Before I get into that, let me briefly outline the two different types of affiliate marketing:

AFFILIATE MARKETING HAS TWO PARTS

1. You invest nothing and passively sell "other people's products" on your website. They ship the product, They handle the calls. They do the customer service. You simply encourage your website visitors, audience members and colleagues to click on your affiliate links and you get a check each month if those people buy something at the site you sent them to. No shopping cart, or merchant account required.

2. You invest a little in the tracking software and have other people around the world selling "your" products and services on their websites.

The problem with trying to start out with #1 is that if you are new, you most likely don't have anyone to tell about the affiliate vendor you are trying to promote. You probably don't have a database of people and you probably don't have any traffic to your website. So, who is going to buy the products you are trying to promote?

The problem with #2 is that you probably don't have any products and if you do, you probably don't know many competent affiliate promoters who would want to promote your product for the commission you would pay them.

So what do you do?

1. Get lots of traffic to your website and promote appropriate affiliate programs.
2. Write articles and put your affiliate links in the articles. Then submit them on your website and also submit them to free article directories.
3. Tell people about the product and then send them to your website to click on your affiliate link.
4. Keep developing your own information products that will bring you all the profit. When you do this, you have much less risk and you don't have to be as good a marketer to get money rolling in.

If you know how to play the media game you can get your name and
book in front of literally millions of people.

A select group of authors, consultants, speakers, information
marketers, and other entrepreneurs have been generating
hundreds of thousands dollars, of publicity for themselves while
everyone else have been fighting it out to sell their book one at
a time through every expensive and time consuming method they can
think of.

I'll be interviewing Rick Frishman, founder of Planned Television
Arts, Rick has been one of the leading book publicists in America

literary agents and publishers in America, including Simon and

President Jimmy Carter, Mark Victor Hansen, Nelson DeMille, John
Grisham, Hugh Downs, Henry Kissinger, Jack Canfield, Alan
Deshowitz, Arnold Palmer, and Harvey Mackay.

Here's what you'll discover on this call with Rick:

=> Why publicity is 100 times better than advertising.

=> How to create a line of back-end products to maximize your
income as a publisher on a limited budget.

=> Understanding the differences between retainers and "pay for
placement" PR and why it's important to you.

=> What does a publicity department do for you at a publishing
firm and what that means for you.

=> Designing a press release that will generate results and get
the media to pick up the phone and call you.

=> How to get published in the traditional manner and not get
taken advantage of.

=> Tips and techniques to generating "back of the room sales" to
maximize your revenue at speaking engagements.

=> How agents work, what they do and why you need to get them on
your side.

=> Understanding the pluses and minuses of radio, TV and other
media sources.

=> How to create a press kit that will get you noticed and get
you coverage.

Tom Antion: Consulting Humor

You know it is time to get out of consulting when...

You ask the waiter what the restaurant's core competencies are.

You decide to re-org your family into a "team-based organization."

You refer to dating as test marketing.

You can spell "paradigm."

You actually know what a paradigm is.

You understand your airline's fare structure.

You write executive summaries on your love letters.

You think that it's actually efficient to write a ten page paper with six other people you don't know.

You believe every company is "a traditional functional organization, with promotion based on tenure, but one that needs to change as it is facing ever increasing competition..."

You believe that a company's problems are never caused by an "ineffective handling of an administrative situation."

You believe you never have any problems in your life, just "issues" and "improvement opportunities."
