Here are some great ideas you can use to find some affiliate programs to get started in making some money online.
Firstly, you can check inside the private members area on my site where I list a bunch of affiliate locations for you to go to. However, whether you are a member of my site or not, you may want to also check out CommissionJunction.com or Clickbank.com. Those are some other great places for you to access existing affiliate programs to make some quick cash.
However, there are a couple of things that you will want to look for in these affiliate programs. You want to make sure that the individual running that particular affiliate program makes it as simple for you as possible. You’re looking for programs that have emails pre-written and ready to go, so that all you have to do is just send them out to your list to begin making the sale. You don’t want to have to write these yourself. That would take time. If they are already written, you’ll be up and running quicker and on track to begin making some money fast. If the affiliate program you’ve joined also has sales letters created and other marketing tools available and ready for you to use, than this sweetens the deal even more. Why? Well, all you want to do is have all of the marketing tools at your disposal so that you simply need to just push the send button to your list and have them click on links to sales pages so that you can start making some quick cash!
What you also want to do is get on other people’s mailing lists that are in your niche. Why would I tell you to do something like that? Well, the reason for this is because if you were on a couple of different lists and you’re noticing everybody’s promoting the same thing, that means there’s probably a lot of money to be made by you promoting those specific products as well. And if everyone is promoting that product in your niche, then you need to get on board too.
You can find out if that by going to the website of that particular product and then scrolling down to the bottom of their sales letter to see if there’s an affiliate program. You may also want to go another route by consider contacting the list owner and saying, “Hi, I was trying to get in touch with the person in charge of the affiliate program for X product that you are promoting because I’m also in the same niche.” Hopefully, they’ll connect you with that individual to get you started.
However, let’s just say that you’re looking at affiliate programs and you have no list. Well, here’s exactly what I’d suggest doing. You want to throw up some articles. You want to throw up a squeeze page really quickly inside that niche, and you can throw up some articles really quickly and have people sign up through your opt-in page. Then as soon as they sign up, have them redirected straight to the affiliate page that you want them to go to. Then make sure you set up email sequences inside there to drive them back to that page.
It’s a fairly simple process to begin making money with affiliate programs. If you simply have a bit of time to commit to setting up some opt-in pages to capture your audience’s names, you have to freedom to sell them as many products as possible from these affiliate programs in the same niche. Just think, you’re already saving a ton of time in creating your own product. But affiliate programs allow you to leverage other people’s time and money to make things happen for yourself. It really doesn’t get any better than that!
