How to sell your products and services faster using Affiliate Programs

I’ve been writing a lot more lately about how big businesses have been expanding exponentially because they created affiliate programs, and how small businesses can use the same steps to sell their products and services even more quickly. But first I wanted to explain what exactly is an affiliate program.

 

What is an affiliate program

According to Wikipedia, “Affiliate marketing is a type of performance-based marketing in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought by the affiliate’s own marketing efforts.”

When a business is interested in a performance-based relationship – where the business pays for the service after they have made a sale (or a connection), the business needs to set up an affiliate program to manage those relationships. 

 

How are affiliate programs different from MLM

Sometimes when we talk about affiliate programs, people start to ask how it’s different from MLM. Essentially MLM (multi-level marketing) creates a non-salaried workforce that sells their products for them. Affiliate Marketing on the other hand does not involve the creation of a workforce. The business/merchant has a product they want to sell, and the Affiliate partner has a community with people who may be interested in that product (and many other products), so the affiliate partner works with different merchants to inform their community of the merchant’s product. 

 

How affiliate programs help you sell your products and services more quickly

The great thing about affiliate programs is that you’re able to get very specific about the kinds of communities that are ideal for your products, and you take the time to connect with them. When there is a great alignment between your product, and what the community needs, then the conversion rates, and Return on Investment ends up being higher than other marketing channels.

 

Steps to create a successful affiliate program

The Affiliate Program Advantage framework gives us a few steps to grow and build successful programs, and here are a few steps.

 

Clarity on ideal client

The whole program relies on understanding who the ideal client or end user of the product is and knowing where to connect with them. It is essential for the business to really get clear on who their ideal clients are in order to create the best strategy.

 

Tracking Platform/network decision

In order to make sure that the affiliate partners get properly compensated for their work, your program needs a platform or network that can track the links appropriately. There are advantages and disadvantages to the decision, so the thorough research is important.

 

Affiliate Partner Recruitment

Once you know who your ideal end user is, then you can begin recruiting partners that have communities full of your ideal clients.

 

Activation of Affiliate partners

Once the partners start joining your program, you will take steps to activate them and help them to understand how to be successful with your program.

 

Optimization of Affiliate partners

As time goes on you will share best practices with affiliate partners so that those who are doing well can do better, and those who are not doing well can begin to do well.

 

To get step by step strategies on how to build your successful affiliate program and sell your products faster, join the Affiliate Management Online Summit at https://JoinAMOS.com and learn from the experts.

Excellence in performance marketing management comes from 3 key things…

Excellence in performance marketing management is a lot easier than it looks. Although it has so many moving parts, I can distill the essentials to 3 main strategic activities.

What is Performance Marketing

For those who are new to performance marketing here is a simple definition:

Performance Marketing is Marketing that only pays for results.

Osayi Lasisi

Essentially you pay a commission only when you’ve made a sale. Now there are a few exceptions to this, but generally speaking that’s what Performance Marketing is.

Some people call it Affiliate Marketing – but I like performance because there are so many confusing uses for the term Affiliate Marketing.

Why Performance Marketing

Performance Marketing is usually a pretty effective program for building brand-success, but even more so now when people are cutting down on their marketing budgets.

Imagine not having to spend any money unless you make a sale . And with Amazon drastically changing their Affiliate program, there are many affiliates who are looking for ways to diversify their income.

If you’re looking for an affordable platform to run your Affiliate program – Check out ShareASale by clicking this link. (I get a commission if you use my special link)

How I got into Performance Marketing management

I’ve been an affiliate for many years, but I actually started working more behind the scenes and became an Affiliate Manager when I launched my first virtual summit in 2016

Ever since that experience I have fallen in love with the kind of exponential success you can have when you create your own affiliate program.

Excellence in Performance Marketing

So here are the three main strategic actions for Excellence in Performance Marketing.

  1. Recruitment – Recruiting the right brand partners – perhaps one of the most essential parts of the strategy.
  2. Activation – Activating the affiliate partners so they are successful.
  3. Optimization – Optimization means providing insights on best practices to make your partners even more successful

We will go into more details in future posts, but please remember that when you have those top 3 activities right, you are 90% of the way to a successful program.

Quote I’d like to share:

In all things it is better to hope than to Despair.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
