subject: Affiliate Marketing Woes [print this page] If you are an affiliate marketer like I am, you have a bunch of different products, tangled up in several separate providers. Then you have what you feel is a good online store, or web site. You have picked a great domain name, great products, and are still not making any money online.
Why is that? You check one day and see your website is ranked better than 500K by the best, and that makes you feel great, and gives you a feeling that you should be making money now. You check your rank on the search engines and come up at least on page 4, and that ought to be good enough to get a few hits, a sale even. But still nothing.
So you join a mailing list and blast out 10K emails a week to folks interested in getting your type of message, in hopes that will finally do the trick. Maybe you even do Pay Per Click, and put ads on your special site. Time goes on and you still have no sales, so you begin to feel jilted, left behind, out of touch and wonder what is wrong. maybe spent a bit of cash too with no results.
Does this sound familiar? Have you followed this route and know what I mean?
Well, that used to be me too. Until I found real simple training that even a hard-headed guy like me could follow it. Training that taught me really how, to get visitors, get on page one, convert visitors to customers and most of all, create relationships that will ensure a residual secure income for years to come.
As that affiliate marketer, I get a sale, I get paid one time. That is no real security. Is that customer going to purchase again? Maybe, maybe not. Do you know who it is even, so you can follow-up with them?
Your efforts have to take up very little of your precious time, so you can enjoy life. They have to be repeatable, so you don't get paid just once, you get paid and get paid over and over again with residual income. Then, they have to be scalable, so you can do the same thing, only more of it, with the same amount of effort, and be able to obtain greater results.
These things I learned the hard way, but now know the right way, a way that works, and is so easy compared to all the crazy things I have done and tried in the past to make money online. Best of all, what I have learned works for any existing business. The opportunities open to me now are seemingly limitless with the processes I have learned. I have hope for the future. I actually believe now that I will reach my dreams.
