I am a newbie to affiliate marketing. This does not mean that i cannot offer valuable advice to those starting out in this field. I have been an affiliate marketer for only a few months. So far i have not made much money, but that situation will change soon.
I started selling things on e-bay last year. i sold all my items i had to offer.I would like to open an E-bay store online sometime in the future, but to be successful in that, you have to devote most of your free time to it .My schedule does not permit that now. My advice to you is if you have a lot of stuff at home you don't want or need anymore, sell it on e-bay.Another tip- go to your favorite discount store and buy things that customers will really need, thensell it for a markup.You will be amazed at the offers you might get for your items
.Another word of advice for marketing affiliates do not over-plan your strategy before you start. Just do it ,jump in, do not over-think. If something does not work, try something else.The best and fastest way you learn is by trial and error .As Thomas Edison once said" I did not fail, i just found 10,000 ways that do not work." If you think too much about your marketing technique, you will start procrastinating and have what the famous blogger Yaro Starak calls "decision paralysis." Just do what you feel will work and eventually something will work and the concept of affiliate marketing will all come together for you. It will click in your head. This is not rocket science, anyone can be a success as an affiliate marketer. It takes time, determination and patience, that's all. Even though I am not a success yet, I already found that out.
Another tip - there are many ways to make money on the internet - do not veer off in all directions at once. Stay with something you really like and keep to it- It will pay off in the long run.
