  Making money online...

  • When I got online looking for ways to supplement my income
    back in 1999 I didn't have my own product(s) to sell. Even
    if I would have had my own products, I didn't have the
    knowledge required to know how to sell them online.

    So the FIRST thing I did after reading Robert Allen's
    Multiple Streams of Income book was get on his conference
    calls to learn about OTHER ways to make money online since I
    didn't have my own products. That's when I first discovered
    affiliate programs.

    I learned that there are a bunch of companies on the
    Internet that will allow you to fill out a short application
    and INSTANTLY become their affiliate. These companies
    provide the products for you to sell, give you websites and
    marketing tools to sell them with, follow-up with any
    prospects you send their way, close the sale, ship the
    products, handle customer service and complaints, and do
    virtually all the stuff you would have to do if you were
    selling your own products.

    Then whenever someone you send to that company buys
    something, you get paid a commission for it. It's a win-win
    situation. The company is looking for more people to promote
    their products and they only pay a commission when an actual
    sale is generated. As an affiliate, you don't have all the
    burden of providing the product or service, following-up,
    closing the sale, handling customer satisfaction issues,
    dealing with "problem people", etc. You just get people to
    the company's website and the company takes care of all that
    for you.

    So being an affiliate is really a mindset thing. Would you
    rather run a company that is responsible for providing the
    product or service, starting relationships with prospects,
    following up relentlessly to close the sale, shipping the
    product, handling returns, dealing with all the customer
    service issues including people who are only want to give
    you a hard time... Hey, a lot of people love doing those
    things and that's great. We need those kind of people and
    I'm deeply thankful for them myself.

    Or would you rather simply focus on bringing prospects to
    the table and letting the company do all the "dirty" work
    for you? This is the choice of an affiliate.

    The amazing thing about affiliate marketing is that you can
    often earn a lions share of the profit. Yes, many companies
    are willing to pay you more than they earn themselves for
    making a sale. For example, there is one affiliate program I
    do very well with called Empowerism. You can take a look at
    their website here:
    http://www.empowerism.com/e/201283

    Through my online traffic generating strategies I send
    hundreds of people to that website every day and a bunch of
    them sign up for an Empowerism membership because they see
    that Empowerism offers a great service for a good price.
    Empowerism charges $24.95 to become a member and do you know
    what I get paid when I refer a new member? $20.00. That's an
    80% commission!

    Are you kidding me??? Empowerism does all the hard work of
    providing an great product and all that goes along with that
    including accepting all kinds of payment, handling all the
    customer support issues, etc. and they pay ME as the
    affiliate the lion's share of the profits!

    That's why affiliate marketing (when done intelligently) is
    the BEST way to make money online. Sure, most programs on
    the Internet don't pay anywhere what Empowerism pays (80%),
    but there are are some that do. In fact, that's what the
    whole Plug-In Profit Site system is about - connecting you
    to a handful of proven affiliate programs that pay out
    MIGHTY commissions. In fact, read this page carefully:
    http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com/main-4594/freesetup.html
    and you'll see that Empowerism is NOT even my top earning
    program (not even close).

    And that's a BIG secret right there. There are THOUSANDS of
    affiliate programs on the Internet. But the fact is you
    could put the exact same energy into one program as you do
    another and earn 100 times more. You MUST choose the RIGHT
    programs if you are going to succeed in affiliate
    marketing.

    I've seen so many people fail in this business simply
    because they joined the WRONG program(s). They put their
    heart and soul into promoting it, but it never produced big
    profits for them. These people leave the Internet thinking
    that affiliate marketing is a scam, but the truth is often
    that they just joined the wrong programs. If they would have
    put the same energy into another affiliate program (one that
    actually converts prospects into customer and pays the
    lion's share of the profits), they would have succeeded.

    So think about that as you continue your journey of learning
    about affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing can be the
    easiest and the best way to make money online because you
    can get started INSTANTLY (even if you have no products of
    your own or prior experience) and the company handles all
    the "dirty" work for you. But affiliate marketing can really
    only be the easiest and best way to make money online IF you
    choose the RIGHT programs to promote.

    I've been doing this since 1999 and have tested out hundreds
    of the most popular affiliate programs in that time.
    Whenever you do something long enough, the cream always
    rises to the top. Out of the hundreds of programs I've
    tried, there are only 6 that consistently produce the most
    profits for the least amount of effort for me. Those are the
    6 affiliate programs that are part of the Plug-In Profit
    Site system described here:
    http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com/main-4594/freesetup.html

    If you want to avoid joining the WRONG programs and get on
    the fast-track to affiliate marketing success, I encourage
    you to check out the Plug-In Profit Site. The Plug-In Profit
    Site gives you many of the same advantages that have taken
    me since 1999 to gain - in 24 hours or less. That's a
    serious shortcut to success.

    I'll be in touch tomorrow with another "Affiliate Secrets"
    lesson for you boo.
