Can You Really Earn MONEY As An Affiliate?Can You Really Earn MONEY As An Affiliate?Copyright 2005 Jugglingmum The answer is a most definite yes! After researching the topic of Affiliate Marketing for a few months (I like to be thorough!) I decided to run a little test and see if I could earn some real money – not pennies. I used strategies that top marketers appear to have been using for years and to my surprise and delight the results were simply amazing. Over 1 month I wrote 3 ebooks and started my own newsletter. I’m now starting to see results and am very impressed with the financial rewards I’m receiving. Best of all, some of the cash is a monthly recurring amount that will simply be paid into my bank account each and every month without me having to do anymore work to get it – as my daughter says, cool! How am I earning money without my own website? I simply include relevant affiliate links in my ebooks, articles, reports and monthly newsletter. I also make sure that each email I send to a customer includes 1 relevant, recommended affiliate merchant link in the main body and of course, I also include my own website links as part of my signature. I already have the customer’s trust so get a high response rate. Writing articles and ebooks is a fantastic way of generating targeted traffic to your website (if you have one) which in turn generates more sales and that means more money :). I sell my ebooks on the World’s biggest billboard – Ebay! So far all of my ebooks have resell rights included. Basically, I sell 50 copies of each ebook, from just 1p, and then hopefully at least 1% of the buyers will resell it for me and then 1% of their buyers, etc., etc. While everyone else is busy selling my ebook I get to work on the next one. I’m not really bothered about making money from selling the ebook as I’m more interested in earning commission from the affiliate links inside it. I have Outlook set up as an auto responder so that when Paypal send me a payment notification, an email is immediately send to my buyer so they can download their eBook. I follow up a few days later asking if they’d like to sign up to my monthly newsletter and offer them another free eBook every month as an incentive. Now I can get some of my affiliate links in front of them every month without too much effort required. Hopefully, you see the potential in affiliate marketing and are maybe considering it yourself so you’re probably asking where to begin writing your own ebook or article. I found a brilliant website with pre-written articles on health and wellbeing. Health is an area that never seems to go out of fashion so is always popular and therefore anything relevant sells very well. I take the pre-written content, dress it up and add my own affiliate links to basically make it my own. Again, the ebooks always have a link to my website and newsletter sign up. I’ve found that usually after 3 or 4 months I start to see my affiliate links working their magic for me and depositing cash in my bank account. 3 or 4 months may seem like a long time to wait for the money to roll in but once you start to reap the rewards you should hopefully continue to reap them for years to come so it’s definitely worth the initial wait. Now I’ve successfully tested the market and am more than happy with the results, I intend to make it a top priority to write at least 1 new ebook and article every week and multiply my profits. I know it’s a cliché but, if I can do it then anyone can! :) I hope you enjoyed reading this article and that you found it both helpful and inspiring. If you’re interested in affiliate marketing then I recommend you don’t delay any longer and just go for it. For more detailed information and resources just visit my website.
