If youve been working online for any length of measure
you
know that one of the best and fastest ways to earn alot of cash
with your products is to offer an affiliate code
.
So let me inquire of
you this - how do *you* treat your affiliates?
You might be asking yourself what I mean. After all, you
offer them a great commission on their sales, and youve
got a terrific item line for them to offer their
customers, right?
But how do you *treat* them?
Do you answer their e-mails when they have questions or
problems? If not, you could be losing some potentially grand
affiliates. Would *you* try to help someone make lots of money if
they wont even bother to give you the instant of day?
Are they just a number to you?
Do you look at your sales and say to yourself, "Affiliate
#2872 brought in over $1,000 for me yesterday. Cha-ching!
But affiliate #8679 has never made one sale. Too bad, so
sad."
Did it ever occur to you that without these people you
wouldnt be creating as much money as you do? You, alone,
can not
reach the entire world with your products. Isnt that
why you started your affiliate code
in the first place?
Even the woman who only sells one merchandise
a year brings in
funds
for *you.* And chances are, you have several
affiliates like that. So youre creating alot more sales even
though each of them may only make one or two.
Maybe affiliate #8679, who has never sold any of your
products, could make use of
a little help from you. You understand
your
products better than anyone else, so why not give him some
pointers to help him sell those products?
Sorry, but those "canned" ads you supply do not
count as
"helping" your affiliates. What I mean is, you should let
your affiliates know youre available to answer any
questions they can have. And then, for Heavens sake,
answer them! They only want to be treated like human beings.
Helpful hint: in addition to the ads you supply your
affiliates, write a page of tips to help them make sales.
Not every body might
be a "super affiliate" but with some
guidance the "little guys" could most definately
sell more of
*your* products. Its a win/win situation for both of you.
And more importantly, it builds your affiliates trust in
*you.* The more they trust you and believe in you, as a
human
, the harder theyll try to sell your businesses products
. And
the harder they try, the more likely they are to be successful.
So, let me ask you again. How do *you* treat your
affiliates?
