Many think Affiliate Marketing is…
1. I use a product or app.
- I apply to be an affiliate.
- I get approved and get my affiliate link
- I post about the thing online.
- I get paid.
Though the list above is correct, there are so many missing parts.
Missing is the best way to start.
What is the best way?
- I use a product or app.
- I post about it online to places where it will be appreciated (outside of my feed)
- I keep posting about it – while talking to the other people who also use or like it.
- I keep doing 2-3 for six months.
- Now, I’m ready to apply to become an affiliate.
The steps above are too simple. How do high-earning Affiliate Marketers do it?
- Create an account in an email marketing automation app.
- While doing 1-4 above, invite people to join your email newsletter.
- This way you can email them directly when you want to say anything.
- You still talk to them in those places where you found them.
Problem: What should the high-earning Affiliate Marketer say so people will subscribe to their email newsletter? Does “Subscribe” work?
No, it doesn’t work like on YouTube.
The High Earning Affiliate Marketing must create a lead magnet.
How do you make a lead magnet?
Let’s define first what’s a not a lead magnet:
1. Not a quick and dirty ebook you told chatgpt to make.
- Not a long book.
- Not a video made by someone else.
- Not a PDF made by someone else.
So what’s a lead magnet?
- It’s something that your crowd in the original steps 1-4 are always talking about.
- It’s based on a pain they feel. They may not talk about it, but you and everyone else there – knows its real.
- It may be something that 80% of them always complain about.
EXAMPLE?
You know there’s Google right?
If you google “Lead Magnet” you’ll see a bunch of ebooks. That doesn’t help. That’s because an ebook cover is not a lead magnet.
An effective lead magnet, must solve some problem. And if you google for Lead Magnets – and you don’t know who is it for – it will not make sense.
Examples:
(You realize I’ve a long table about Lead Magnets in my book Second Incomes, right?)
You: Interested in Cars
Problem: “So you’re ready to buy your first car, you don’t know the first thing to look for.”
Lead magnet: ___________
You: Interested in Fighter Jet Planes (Yes, the kind only countries can buy)
Problem: “I wonder if they have model of that rare plane…?”
Lead magnet :____________
You: Interested in Money because that’s what the gurus taught you and you know nothing else. You even neglected your children and not they don’t care about you. LOL.
Problem: Your kids don’t care if you live or die as long you give them money.
Lead magnet: ____________
