Affiliate Marketing Means
Using Email-Marketing
by David McKenzie
As an affiliate in an affiliate program you need to be good at
affiliate marketing. One of the most important aspects of affiliate
marketing is email-marketing.
Get it right and you will be a successful affiliate. Get it wrong
and you will be just another affiliate statistic. (It is estimated
that between 80% and 90% of affiliates make little or no money from
affiliate programs) What email-marketing methods work best to be
a successful affiliate?
Here are 3 methods that consistently produce the best results for
affiliates:
1. Developing a Newsletter
You MUST have a personal newsletter that goes out on a regular
basis. Just because you're an affiliate doesn't mean you should
not have a newsletter.
A newsletter with valuable information lets you build an email
list. Then you can market your affiliate programs through articles
and ezine ads in your own newsletter. I personally have experienced
some excellent results by promoting affiliate programs I belong
to in ezine ads.
I know I personally have clicked on thousands of ezine ads in newsletters!
2. Set up an Email Course
A great way to build an email list is to run a free email course.
You package some of your content into an email course running over
perhaps a few weeks and offer it for free to subscribers.
What you can do is have links at the bottom of each email promoting
a different affiliate program.
For example, if you offered a 5-part email course you could promote
5 different affiliate programs in each email. In each email would
be a link to a different affiliate program. Each link would have
your unique affiliate code.
3. Offer an Ebook Download
Another great way to build an email-marketing list as an affiliate
is to offer a free ebook download. You can offer the download via
autoresponder so that an email goes out to each subscriber giving
them the download page.
In that email you could promote a few of your affiliate programs.
You can also promote affiliate programs by having links throughout
the ebook. However be careful not to just provide an ebook full
of links - you want to provide quality information first and the
affiliate program links second.
Email-marketing is an essential tool for the successful affiliate.
Use it properly and you will see some fantastic results!
