subject: Bring Money Into Your Network Marketing Business Today, Using Affiliate Marketing [print this page] Anyone in a home based business understands that it can take months and even years to make a profit. Not only can it be a very slow process to get started, but you will also meet a lot of people who just don't like your particular opportunity.
Well, I want to tell you how to make money even if the prospect says no to your opportunity. In the past you might call or follow up with a lead and if they said no to your business then that was the end of things. When this happens you are losing out on a lot of money, because you are giving yourself only one income stream for them to say no to.
If you have affiliate products that you can offer that same lead then you will have a lot better chance of getting money even if they choose not to join your business. Most network marketing affiliate products are going to be training products or any other product that will help a person succeed in network marketing. If you are talking to leads that have expressed an interest in owning their own business then it is a safe bet that they would also be interested in marketing training products or mindset products etc...
The point is if you are working hard to generate leads for your business then you should be in a position to capitalize on those leads. The way you do this is by having quality products to offer that prospect that will genuinely help them on their journey toward financial freedom.
Your opportunity is not for everyone, but that does not mean that you can't make money from the people who don't join your business. If you are marketing your business online then this process is very simple and easy. You can pretty much find a product that has helped you in a big way (or that you believe in enough to put your own name behind) and sign up as an affiliate to promote that product.
Affiliates usually make a very good percentage of the sale too, it differs with the product but most products pay 50-70% commission on every sale. Once you find a product or products that you believe in you can now market those products to your list of prospects and make additional income for you business.
Now you are going to make money from people who say no to your network marketing business and cover your marketing expenses. Failing to use affiliate marketing will result in wasted leads and unfulfilled potential for your list of prospects. What really aided your growth in this industry the most.
Most likely there is an information product that has the ability to reveal this strategy to your list. Then use the upfront cash you made from marketing other people's products and throw it right back into your own advertising. This way you sponsor more reps, and get a larger list of leads.
