A Question for Internet Home Business Owners, What is Important to You in an Affiliate Program?
I am in the process of developing my first Affiliate Product and program, and its targeted to internet home business owners. It’s targeted to people such as yourselves, people who either have an internet home business web site, or are looking at starting one. If you already have a web site and are looking for alternative profit streams, I believe you will want to add my product to your site, if you are looking at starting a new web site, my advice is to add my product AND also keep looking for the main theme or purpose of your site.
Even though I want you to add my product and program to your site, its important that you not rely on outsiders for your sole source of income. I have been very vocal in the past in bashing Affiliate marketing and the reason for that has been the proliferation of the scams out there calling AM as the way to riches and fame, without doing any work. Adding my product to your site is only going to be of value to you if you actually have a site with some traffic on it, my product alone, regardless of how good it is, will not sell for either one of us until you can get some traffic to your site. That is a topic for another day.
You own an internet home business, you want to make some money, one of the ways to do that is to sell someone else’s ready made product, become an affiliate for that person and their product. What are you looking for when you consider adding an affiliate to your web site?
What I look for are probably the same things you look for, first is the quality and the integrity of the product. If I am going to put someone else’s product and link on my site, I need to know that they are honest and stand behind the product that I am selling. I always remember that when I sign up an affiliate, that we are now in partnership, I need to treat that person with respect and treat their customers the same way I treat mine, because their customers are now my customers. With this in mind, I am convinced that the quality of product that I will be introducing on October the 1st, will knock your socks off.
Some of the material will come from my Time Management site, this site is the result of more than 30 years in the field, dealing with over 60,000 people who have learned the advantages and benefits of gaining control of their time and the impact that can have on their lives. Part of my initial offering will be just that, an offering of my product, to those people who are interested in becoming affiliates in this program. I am working on the details, but it looks like I will be GIVING the product way free to those people who are serious about becoming affiliates. the question is, how do you separate the people who are serious from the tire kickers? Any suggestions?
I would also like to hear about what is important to the owner of an internet home business and what determines what affiliate programs you work with and the ones that turn you off. More on this in the few weeks to come before October 1st, 2010.
Have a great day, don’t forget your freebie of the day at www.sitebizz.com
