A Beginner’s Guide to Affiliate Marketing.

October 16, 2020 By Sheldon Leave a Comment

Plain and simple, this beginner’s guide to affiliate marketing will be your ultimate go to resource, I’m not saying that for effect either.

beginner's guide to affiliate marketing

Being in the affiliate marketing business today is not difficult with all of the current technology at your fingertips.

It is much easier now with modern technology, and assuming that you’re working from home, your day might be something like this.

After getting the kids off to school, you check for new developments. As a marketer, there might be new things to update and statistics to review.

The split test has to be revised. Experienced marketers knows that a split tested landing page can increase sign ups and conversion rates.

Split testing is simply 2 versions of the same page. For example, the text on one page might be different from page two.

Time to review your current and new subscribers you are getting from your campaigns. Who is opening your emails and clicking thru and who hasn’t.

Are your subscribers checking the products out? Have you been meaning to send out some broadcast emails, but haven’t?

There are lots of options here, and as a marketer, following up with your list is one way of building a relationship with your list.

Broadcast emails are just emails you send out to your list when you publish a new blog post, have some tips or advice, an offer to help them etc.

There might be questions to answer from the replies. Reply quickly, nothing can turn off a customer more than an unanswered question.

Liking the beginner’s guide to affiliate marketing so far?


Nobody wants to be ignored and potential customers are not always the most patient of all people.

OK moving on, next you might log into Facebook and check out your favorite group(s) where you can interact with other affiliates.

This is where discussions can range from things like:

  • Best way to promote their products.
  • Learning some new traffic generation method.
  • Sharing tips and advice is always good.

There may be others in the group, wanting to join the conversation and may be enticed to do so by what you say.

Now would be the best time to see if there are some new things happening in the other Facebook groups.

These same groups are also an important tool in keeping up to date with the newly introduced products.

Here, affiliate marketers put up some promotions that you may want to know about.

There are lots of wannabee affiliate marketers that simply post their affiliate links in these groups, and right on someone else’s post too.

That’s SPAM. Spamming is just posting a link in these groups, hoping that someone will buy and they’ll make a commission.

You want take the time to write (or talk about) the product, so you can become a credible source for the product(s) being promoted.

That accomplishes two things at the same time.

The marketer gets to build the know, like and trust factor, and promote the product as well as the program they are in.

Who knows, someone may be inclined to join.

Time flies. Missed my lunch but quite satisfied with the tasks done.

Ok, so this may not happen all in one day.

But it gives you an idea of how a dedicated affiliate marketer would spend their time during the day.

Is that something you can see yourself doing in the future or what?

Avoid These Common Affiliate Mistakes

June 15, 2020 By Sheldon Leave a Comment

If you can avoid these common affiliate mistakes, you’ll have a much better chance of increasing your affiliate commissions.

common affiliate mistakes

Affiliate Marketing is one of the best ways to make money from home and there are hundreds of affiliate programs to choose from.

Anyone with a laptop, tablet or even a smartphone can get access to some affiliate programs and the opportunity to make some money online.

Usually most affiliate programs are free while some have a very low cost to join.

Typically, they are easy to get started with and they pay out commissions on a regular basis.

Everyday, more people are looking into new ways to start a home based business.

There are many common affiliate mistakes that people make that hurts their business efforts.

Avoiding some of these common affiliate mistakes should increase your sales and affiliate commissions.

Here are the most common affiliate mistakes made by affiliate marketers.

  • Not doing any research before you start promoting a program.

I was guilty of this when I first started, I joined my first affiliate program simply because it paid a real high commission rate.

Of course, the program wasn’t relevant to anything I was promoting at the time, and I found it difficult to convince people to purchase the product.

Why would they want it if it does not help them solve a problem their having right now?

  • Not using Social Media correctly.

Many affiliates join Facebook groups and simply post their affiliate link, that’s not how you educate, entice and gain that email address.

Posting in 20 different groups with nothing but affiliate links to one product or a bunch of different products can very easily be considered spam.

Nobody is going to be interested in your health supplements, CBD oils or whatever your offer is when you massively spam links.

  • Not personalizing your own ad copy.

There’s nothing worse than seeing the exact same type of offer in all of those MMO FB Groups from ten different marketers.

How much perceived value will your offer(s) have when the reader is seeing it for the tenth time?

Tweak your ad so it speaks to your target audience.

Personalize it so it doesn’t even seem like an ad anymore.

  • Not having your own domain and hosting.

Even Grandma can tell a free hosted site when she sees one.

It’s one of those common affiliate mistakes that makes it obvious that you haven’t made any money online.

It blatantly screams, I don’t know what I’m doing.

When you can’t even spend a few dollars to setup your business properly with your own domain and hosting, why would anyone purchase from you?

Learn how you can get hosting, a FREE domain name and a SSL Certificate for a price that won’t break your bank account.

In fact, it will definitely help you in the long run.

  • Not capturing an email address and sending them directly to the affiliate offer.

When you spend time and effort to get someone to click on one of your affiliate links then they leave click away without buying, what have you gained? Nothing!

You just wasted your time and effort to get that one click-through.

Set up an opt-in page to capture that email address first, then to the site.

That way if they don’t buy right away, you can follow up with them later.

This is how you can build the like, know and trust factor with just an email.

Now that you know some of the common affiliate mistakes to avoid…

It’s time to become the super affiliate marketer you always knew you could be!

Tips For Affiliate Marketers

June 6, 2020 By Sheldon Leave a Comment

Welcome to my tips for affiliate marketers post, with these tips, you will be able to increase your sales in the affiliate marketing niche.

tips for affiliate marketers

New affiliate marketers are always looking for the programs that pays the most. They assume that’s the magic formula that they need.

LOL. There is not a magic formula. Or a big red easy button to push.

Experienced marketers know this and use proven marketing practices, combined with years of hard work and dedication.

But Sheldon, the slick sales page said I could turn $7 into $1526 commissions over and over again!

Sure it possible that the program owner actually did this himself, but what you don’t see is the months or even years of work and sacrifice.

That’s just for the entrepreneurs with legit businesses, the scam artists are feeding off your emotions and ripping you off.

These proven marketing practices have worked well before online marketing became popular and is still strong today.

With these tips for affiliate marketers, you will be able to increase your sales and thrive in your niche.

Ok Sheldon, what are these tips for affiliate marketers?

1. Create individual pages that focus on the product you are marketing, including your opt in(s) and nothing more.

If you’re an actual product user yourself, include your own unique review on how they can benefit from the product and buy on your recommendation.

Also include others who have already tried the product. Get permission to use their names and photos and what they have to say about the product.

Make the page attractive, compelling and include calls to action. Each heading should entice the readers to continue reading your content.

Make your special points standout. This will help your readers to learn what the page is about and they will want to find out more.

2. Offer something free to your readers.

Notice on this very post, for example, you’ll see my 100% Free Training and my Free Webinar opt-ins on the top right sidebar, where they simply cannot be missed.

The 100% Free Training is for anyone looking for the perfect affiliate program to promote and comes with a bonus package.

Since you’re still reading this, get yourself over to the right sidebar and opt in with your favorite email address and see how I do it.

Already involved with something?

Then get yourself invited to the Free Webinar and watch my Coach Zach Crawford show you how to build a successful online business.

Both of these will be e-mailed to your inbox.

Now, only two things will happen when someone lands on your page.

You get the sale or the prospect leaves the page, never to return again.

If you got the sale, congratulations on a job well done. Was it someone who was ready to buy right now, credit card in hand?

Or maybe it was someone who subscribed to your free training or free webinar where you delivered tremendous value and established the know, like and trust factor.

By emailing your list with useful information, you can remind them of the product they thought they wanted is still available.

It is another opportunity for you to give valuable insight about the product. Just don’t make it sound like a sales pitch.

Focus on important points like how your product can solve whatever problem they are having and how it can make some tasks easier and more enjoyable.

Getting visitors to opt-in to your list(s) is the main goal, even if their not looking to buy right now.

These is how you can educate those who signed up by establishing yourself as an authority and build the trust factor with them.

Do that correctly and they will be looking forward to the next email from you about your products and services.

3. Get the kind of traffic that is targeted to your product.

When you send people who haven’t heard of you or your product (cold traffic) to your website, they might not be interested in what you are offering.

If you don’t offer them something valuable for free, they will move on and never come back.

This is why you write blog posts that focus on any hot topic relevant to your niche. This way you are focusing on your target customers and what you blog about might just grab their attention.

What? You don’t have a website or blog? Check out my special!

You should post content on your blog at least 2 to 3 times a week. By continuously blogging, over time, you will draw targeted readers to your site everyday.

Notice I didn’t say you will get 1000 views, 100 new subscribers and 10 sales right off the bat.

tips for affiliate marketers

Maybe I should have started with “Once Upon A Time”

Don’t get your hopes up and remember that only 1 out of 100 people are likely to buy your product or get your services right off the bat.

Over time, when you can generate a 1,000 targeted visits to your website, you can expect to make 10 sales based on the average statistic.

It really isn’t very difficult to do, if you think about it. It just requires a little time and an action plan on your part.

Put these tips for affiliate marketers to good use.

And if you haven’t done so already, subscribe to my programs and I’ll see you on the inside.

Is affiliate marketing possible for you

May 29, 2020 By Sheldon Leave a Comment

Is affiliate marketing possible for you? Well, I do affiliate marketing part time, and I can say that yes, affiliate marketing is real and works for me.

Then why is it that a lot of people who try affiliate marketing are unable to make money?

Well gentle reader, let me explain why this does not work for everyone.

Guns N’ Roses sang it best: All we need is just a little patience.

Many people start affiliate marketing without seeing any commissions in the first few days and assume that affiliate marketing does not work.

Unfortunately for those people who quit, they believed the HYPE below.

That’s what happens when you believe these hypey pictures you find in some Facebook Groups, no wonder they quit after a few days.

The biggest problem why new affiliate marketers quit is that they are learning from, well, new affiliate marketers!

There are many online courses and training programs out there made by affiliate marketers for new affiliate marketers.

So, why is this a problem?

Because most affiliate marketers are only interested in making money by selling people like you their training courses.

In order to make a sale, they lure you in through hypey promises that simply cannot be fulfilled.

Honestly, whoever tells you that “this is easy” or a “quick way to make money online” is lying to you.

Sure, there are a few people who made money in the first 30 days of business, but this is extremely rare. It took me months!

Now, as time goes on, it’s taking longer and longer to make money online.

If you’re interested in getting started with Internet marketing the right way.

I strongly suggest you start RIGHT NOW.

With that said, it’s really unfortunate that so many people don’t have the patience to put in the work when they first get started.
