Affiliate marketing is nothing less than a shared job, where the brand you deliver the product and you promote. If your marketing generates sales, you will receive a percentage or commission on the product sold.

The best benefit of this marketing strategy is its focus on results. This benefit especially extends to the brand, as you only have to pay if you generate leads or traffic, depending on the deal.

There are 4 parties involved in affiliate marketing:

  • The tag
  • The Affiliate
  • The client
  • A network
Brand

The brand is who provides the product or service. The truth is that to have this position in an affiliate program there is no big secret, just have a product or service to sell.

Affiliate

The affiliate is responsible for promoting the brand’s products. Affiliates’ mission is to convince customers about the value of the product they have been given to promote. For each sale made, the affiliate receives a commission or percentage.

To promote the brand’s products you can create a page of reviews on your site, create a site completely targeted to reviews, create a Youtube channel of reviews and more.

Customer

The customer is the focus of any affiliate program, without them the system doesn’t work, there are no sales, no there are commissions, there is nothing.

According to the product the affiliate promotes, he will choose the social network, search engine, website, etc , where your target audience is present and the probability of conversion is superior.

Exposing whether or not to the customer who is part of an affiliate program and is receiving financial incentives is at the discretion of the affiliate.

Network

Not everyone considers the Network part of the affiliate marketing. However, because it so often acts as an intermediary between the affiliate and the brand, it is important to mention it. In fact, sometimes brands just put their affiliate programs on networks, making affiliates have to use them.

Affiliate networks can also be used as a database to help affiliates choose the products they want to promote.

Now that you know which parties are involved in the affiliate marketing, it’s time to teach you how to be a successful affiliate!

Makereviews in your niche

Reviews are one of the most effective strategies you can use as an affiliate. But if you have a men’s clothing website, you’re not going to do reviews on home appliances, are you?

 

This is where the importance of understanding your niche comes in. Knowing who you’re advertising to is essential to increasing your conversions. There are countless examples, both on Youtube and on Google, of channels and sites that only focus on a specific niche and are successful in the affiliate marketing. To advertise on these platforms, just get an affiliate link. If a conversion is performed by your link, a percentage or commission will be waiting for you.

Hint: It is essential that you identify with the product you are promoting, don’t promote what you don’t know, your audience can easily understand that.

Affiliate links is something that really works. The problem is that for those links to make you good money your traffic has to be high.

If you have little traffic on your site it might be better to contact your audience directly. For direct contact, email marketing is the best strategy!

Build an email list with your potential customers

Although it is an old strategy, the email marketing should never be left out, not only because continues to be effective, but also because makes advertising possible even when potential customers are not on the site.

Even if you don’t have more than 500 people, you can still do some conversions. The key is to keep your audience up to date, one email a week is enough . No focus your emails only on sales, change the content of the submissions so as not to saturate your audience.

There are 3 easy ways to collect emails from your site users

Hello Bar

The hello bar is a CTA placed at the top of your website . This CTA is intended to exchange a free product or a special discount via the user’s email
