…………………….

It’s important that you understand something about affiliate
marketing from the very beginning -

Earning affiliate income isn’t easy
for the average person.

Let’s face it, there are 50 gazillion other people out there
doing the exact same thing you are doing – if you could remember
what it is that you are doing. :)

So, that’s what I want to address. Here’s the mindset that I
want you to remember: there are only so many customers out there.
And each affiliate in the program is doing basically the same
thing to try to reach them.

That’s why you are going to be different. Got it?

Before I jump into what I consider to be the “real secret” to
earning commissions with affiliate programs, let me share with
you a basic concept that is going to be important to what you
are going to learn today.

Here is how the average affiliate approaches promoting their
affiliate link…

A) Send out a mailing. Purchase ezine ads. Get a few
pay-per-click keywords. Post a few links. Make a small
profit. Get discouraged. Move on to the next affiliate
program.

Or, if they are slightly more aggressive…

B) Send out a mailing. Purchase ezine ads. Get a few
pay-per-click keywords. Post a few links. Write a few articles.
Create an eBook. Do a joint venture. Swap ads. And they
continue promoting that same affiliate program until they
(along with a few other aggressive affiliates) have found
every potential customer on the face of the earth. Make
a decent profit. Where do I go now? Move on to the next
affiliate program.

While I certainly agree that the “slightly more aggressive”
affiliate is on the right trail with their approach, it still
leaves a common problem that all affiliates have…

Finding NEW customers.

You make an affiliate sale. Great. You make another one.
Great. You keep working and working and working to make
another sale and another sale and another sale. Now, remember,
there are a gazillion others out there trying to do the same
thing. And, even if all of these other affiliates only make
one or two sales each…

..that’s a LOT of customers that you WON’T be selling to!

For example: If there are 10,000 affiliates promoting
Product A and they all, on average, sell just 2 copies
each, that’s 20,000 customers that are immediately
unavailable for you to sell to.

Doesn’t matter how hard you promote and how much you do, you
WILL NOT sell them a second copy of something they have
already bought. Even if they love it. They won’t buy
another copy.

So, here’s the “real secret.” While everyone is promoting
the heck out of all of the same programs you are, you need
to refine who it is that you are promoting.

***Bottom line: Start FOCUSING on those affiliate programs
that offer MONTHLY commissions.

Here’s why. Let’s say you promote an absolutely awesome
product by Mr. Guru that sells for $29.97. And Mr. Guru gives
you 50% commission. By the time all of the processing fees
are out of the way, you earn about $14.00 for a new customer.

And you’re done with that customer — it’s time to move on
and find the next guy.

HOWEVER, if you promote an affiliate program that pays
MONTHLY, let’s say a membership site, then here’s what you
would find happens…

The membership site is $27.00 PER MONTH. You earn $13.50 per
MONTH for every referral you make for as LONG AS THEY REMAIN
ACTIVE!

With the $29.97 product, you earn $14.00 for all of your efforts
in finding a customer. One time commission. That’s it. Time
to find another customer. With the MONTHLY service, you earn
about the same commission for that same customer. Then, next
month you earn that commission over again! Month after that,
you’re still earning that same commission from that same customer.
For each and every month that the customer continues to use
the service you continue to bring in the commission without
finding a new customer.

Do you see the potential here?

It makes much more sense to focus on promoting affiliate
programs that bill monthly and pay commissions monthly. That
way, you continue to earn profits from the…

Same customer base!

If I am going to buy ads and purchase pay-per-click keywords
and create eBooks and bust my behind to get those customers,
I’d sure rather get paid every month (without doing a bit of
extra work, mind you!) that to only earn a one-time commission.

—————-Side Bar ——————-
While this isn’t as good as MONTHLY income, choosing an
affiliate program that offers you LIFETIME customers is the
next best thing. For example: With some programs when you
recruit a customer , they are yours for life. If they
purchase future product releases, then YOU receive the
commission as the original referrer. It’s a good second
option, but it’s not as good as getting paid monthly!
————————————————

So, what should you promote? Your eyes have been opened.
You’ve seen the light. You realize that what you’ve just
read does make sense. And you want to get paid monthly!

So, what should you promote? While you definitely need
to check things out yourself and make that determination
on your own, let me give you a short list of TYPES of offers
that you can promote that bill monthly and award monthly
commission checks.

* PLR AND RESALE RIGHTS CLUBS

* MEMBERSHIP SITES

* WEB HOSTING

* AUTORESPONDERS AND LIST MANAGEMENT TOOLS

* COACHING CLUBS

* PAID NEWSLETTERS

* SERVICES (AD TRACKING, LEGAL DOCS, MANAGEMENT, ETC.)

The important thing is for you to identify at least one
really good affiliate program that offers residual income
possibilities for you.

Once you find the right program to promote, it’s a matter
of getting as many different people to click on your link
as possible. How would you like to have someone teach

How to How To Break The $10,000 Sales Barrier, Take Things To The Next Level, Get Things On Auto Pilot And Discover The Internet Lifestyle Is Alive and Well In Spite of Naysayers

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It’s exciting to see those first sales come in online.

I’ll never forget.

I lived out of a 600 square foot apartment. Anthony
Robbins and I would have been tight back then. Actually,
though, I was quite proud of where I lived at the time.

I had a little white, wooden desk my friend Kelli had
given me.

I started out pre-www on AOL and Compuserve. I’ve told
some of those stories elsewhere. You didn’t have affiliate
programs back then but you did have “dropship”
arrangements where people would dropship books for you.

Anyway, the FIRST time I broke the $10,000 a year barrier
was when I was buying ads in these little freebie penny
shopper newspapers with classified ads in them.

People would call from the ad into an answering machine.
You didn’t have voice mail then. So I ran 4 or 5 answering
machines with the sales pitch and an offer to send the
book C.O.D.

I ran ads in 72 cities and grossed $12,000 or more.

I had no back end or repeat business, although I did try
sending along a catalog. It just wasn’t related enough to
make sales.

The lessons I learned were:

1. You have to promote in volume.

You need a lot of ads out there. Or resellers and
affiliate running ads. Emails being sent out to lists. Or
links on web sites. You need quite a bit of SOMETHING
working on your behalf.

2. You need a back end related to the front end

My initial sale (front end) was about buying cars dirt
cheap. That would have made for a logical back end. So
here’s what’s fascinating about that.

The late, great Corey Rudl sold $500,000 a year or
something like that of his car secrets book. And he
devised an email he sent 4 days after the sale
automagically that referred people to a few resources.

He made quite a bit of money on that follow up email.

It’s my belief that Corey created the demand for what
later became known as autoresponders. They didn’t exist at
the time. Corey had custom programming that would send
that email 4 days after the sale.

But when people read his course, everyone wanted to do it.

Thus, autoresponders were born.

The point here is that Corey experimented and found
something AFTER the initial sale that people WOULD buy and
it amounted to quite a bit of money.

My little $12,000 a year business would have been a
$50,000 or $100,000 a year business if I had a few things
that sold on the back end.

Here’s a really FASCINATING idea to test out that I heard
on a seminar from Agora master marketer Porter Stansberry.
Porter says to sell people on the back end more of what
they just bought.

In other words, the ONLY thing you know they want to buy
is what they just bought. So sell ‘em more of the same,
just at a higher price with more value.

That’s something I’ve never experimented with. Not in that
precise manner.

Now, since I am the King of Step-By-Step Internet
marketing with all my Dashboards and so forth, it’d just
be wrong to not give you a step-by-step gameplan for going
beyond $10,000 in sales.

==================================
Marlon’s Step-By-Step
Gameplan To Break $10,000 In Sales
==================================

1. Think in terms of multiples

I ran ads in 72 cities. Not one city.

I have thousands of resellers. Not one reseller.

Now, since $10,000 isn’t that much money, you probably
only need 5-10 decent affiliates promoting for you.

2. Get a front-end product that converts

Your affiliates (the best traffic source) are going to
need a product to promote that sells better than ice in
100+ temperatures.

The way you GET your offer to that point is by split
testing. To start with, you can use Google Website
Optimizer to do your testing. When you get more
sophisticated you can do true Taguchi testing, which is an
advanced topic for another day.

If your offer doesn’t convert well, you have a few
options:

a. Try juicing up the offer

– Add new or different bonuses — Experiment with your
deadlines and scarcity — Try a different guarantee

b. Try a new product

Dead ducks don’t quack.

3. Test the living daylights out of your front-end email
sequence

People go to your squeeze page and fork over their email
and possibly their name and email. The current trend is to
ask for email only, since at the moment this gives your
squeeze page success rate a significant bump.

The idea is that you’re going to turn that autoresponder
series into what the oldtimers called a “greased chute.”
You know, people enter your series and you pull out EVERY
trick in the book to get ‘em to buy.

You know, you got flying pigs, dancing cows, offers that
make the eyeballs pop. That sort of thing. This isn’t a
time to be subtle about your USP, your credibility or
other things.

4. Don’t just hammer. Mix in content.

Some people would disagree with this point. They feel it’s
best to send all offers and no content.

Based on my current experience, I recommend mixing in a
good dose of content or quasi content because you’ll
extend the period of time in which people read your
emails.

The question is whether you mix in true content or the
illusion of content. Do you tell Matt Furey style stories?
Do you do your best imitation of John Alanis? Or do you
send “what to do” but not “how to do it” emails?

I mix in good content.

But this is open for experimentation.

By the way, if you don’t know who Matt Furey is or John
Alanis, you’ve not been reading my ezine long and enough
and you don’t own enough of my products! Or you’d know who
they are.

So just hang in there and I’ll get you up to speed.

5. Get at least one back-end offer that converts.

You’re going to need at least one solid back-end offer.
You’ve got to find a way to make it convert. That might
mean doing webinars or teleseminars, either live or
pre-recorded.

It might mean a really long sales letter. In spite of the
common myth that people don’t read long letters, they DO
if they’re buyers. And do you really care about the non
buyers?

If they aren’t in the market for a more extensive solution
to their problem or want, they aren’t going to read the
copy. If they are, they probably will.

6. Look at the back-end offers successfully promoted by
competitors for ideas.

What do they sell? How do they sell it? What are the price
points? You don’t need to reinvent the wheel on this. Do
what you know works and put your own spin on it.

– Do they have a continuity, membership-type program? –
Do they sell a workshop, seminar or some other form of big
ticket? — How do they sell it?

These are things inquiring minds wanna know.

7. Run the numbers

Let’s see, you need to sell 100 products at $100 to bring
in $10,000. That is 8.33 products a month and 2 products a
week.

Just having your offer on ONE marketer’s thank you page
could give you those numbers, or better.

After you get those 100 sales, look at making 100 in 6
months, 3 months or a month by duplicating what already
worked for you.

Now, you need to get 10% of those 100 buyers to upgrade to
a $300-$500 something or the other. $500 x 10 = $5,000.

Then get one or two of those to spend $2,000 for another
$4,000.

8, Stop pre-judging and ACT

One of the biggest obstacles you’ll have is the paralysis
of analysis and just analyzing everything to DEATH! What
you need is more action and less analysis.

Analysis is great. But those who take action rule the
world. Get busy. Create products. Promote. And make bank.

THEN put it on autopilot. See, you put the whole sequence
in the autoresponder and kick back in the Bahamas. Highly
credible naysayers will TRY to convince you the Internet
lifestyle is b.s.

But realize that they have their own agenda, products,
courses and programs to sell.

Autoresponder marketing worked soon as Corey Rudl invented
the basis for it and it STILL works on auto pilot today,
just like it did back then. We all owe more to Corey
Freaking Rudl than hardly anyone knows.

Gurus today don’t even know that because they weren’t in
the Game back then. They don’t know what they don’t know.

Follow the above 8 steps and you WILL crack the $10,000
barrier.

Have fun and go do it.
