Why Most Marketers FAIL on Marketing Affiliate Products?
Throughout my ventures, I have realized that it is
really not that difficult to become very successful
promoting affiliate products.
Seriously…
All you need to do is match the right audiences with
the right products. You can call the process itself as
what we refer to as the “money flow chart”. However, you
must do it in such a powerful fashion, where it has to
be done on an autopilot.
If not, you will be trading your time for money, just
like most of the people do in business.
In today’s issue, I would like to point out the FIVE
factors why marketers fail and what you need to do to
AVOID the fatal mistakes in your affiliate marketing.
1. Not having a proper strategy from the beginning.
Fail to plan = Plan to fail. Seriously, if you do
NOT plan from the beginning on WHY and WHAT you need
to do to make a consistent income from affiliate
marketing, you plan to fail.
Think about this…
Most people want to make a lot of money online. You
can’t do that. You need to know how much money (in
numbers) you want to make every month. Then, plan
backward on how to make that amount.
Target = $500 per month.
How much traffic do you need?
What is the conversion of the product?
How much commission are you going to receive?
The more detailed your plan is, the more confident
you are on making your plan become a reality.
2. Become a follower — Not a leader.
WAIT! I am in no position to assault you, nor is it
my purpose to do so. Instead, I want you to think
carefully the of difference between success and
failure.
Successful people are NOT intimidated with joining
every single business opportunity they come in
contact with.
Unsuccessful people are CRAZY on participating in
every single opportunity that surfaces on the
internet.
Learn how to become a leader. Be firm with your
goal. Know what you want and what you are looking
to accomplish. This is HOW you are able to go from
zero dollars to a six figure income per year business.
3. Give up easily.
Only losers give up easily. I tell you one story, ok?
When I decided to do the 117ChristmasGifts.com, now
117Network.com, in December 19th’ 2004, many top
marketers adviced me to give up. They told me I was
too late.
They said nasty words to me like, “WHO THE HECK ARE
YOU?” I mean you are NOT this or that top marketers
that I know. HECK! Though, I was being stabbed from
many directions, there is ONE THING that I didn’t
do. What is it?
Become a loser. I didn’t give up. I just PUSHED
my limits until the end. If I gave up on that one
campaign backed in 2004, there is no way I could
get the title the JV “Giveaway” legend.
4. Rely on yourself.
GOSH! I hate to put up an HTML code by myself nor
do I want to spend time on creating my own graphics
for my blog. If I had to do so, I would probably go
insane today.
Think about this…
The Starbucks(r) CEO does not sell coffee in the
store. WHY? He has all the people running the store
for him on an autopilot. If he is the one who sells
the coffee, how is that possible he can manage to
open up stores WORLDWIDE?
So, why NOT you?
Do the same thing. I am good in HTML code, joint
venture, creating graphics, and much more. However,
I choose to let others do the work for me. This
allows me to do something bigger.
What is it? Strategic Planning.
5. Become a warrior.
This is worse. We are NO LONGER in the 19th century.
We do not depend on our physical strength as our
weapon to win over the enemy. Instead, we use strategy
to become the winner in everything we do.
Warriors are a way of the past. To become successful
in affiliate marketing, you need to create a concrete
strategy from A -Z on WHAT you need to do to make
your affiliate marketing successful.
It has to be in terms of a financial plan, automation
system, as well as delegation techniques.
Once you have all those things in place, you can
become the warrior or have your warriors (team
members) to finish the tasks on time.
