Affiliate Programs: The Net's Favorite Marketing Method
by Kevin Nunley
http://DrNunley.com
A reader sent me this question from the Expert area of
Staples.com:
"I'm thinking of starting my own affiliate or referral program.
I know what the rewards are but what could be the risks in doing
this?"
Referral and affiliate programs are the number one marketing
method on the Web. If someone promotes your business and helps
you sell a product or service, you give them a cut of the sale.
Commissions range from 5% to 75% in some cases.
There are a number of firms that will set up your affiliate
program with software to track sales. SimpleAffiliate.com has a
very low-cost system. MyAffiliateProgram.com is easy to set up
and very reliable.
Of course, there are some downsides as you mention. With so many
companies offering affiliate programs, it can be a challenge to
get people excited about yours. Your best bet is to create a
specialized referral program that appeals to a core group of
business people. For example, if you sell computer software, you
could create a program directed at teachers or computer repair
outlets.

Market To Yourself
by Kevin Nunley
http://DrNunley.com
Usually we talk about how to market your product or service to
prospects. But that leaves out one very important person--YOU!
As the economy has gotten tighter, we've seen a lot of very good
business ideas go by the wayside. In many cases, the owner had
to face difficult challenges. The problems could have been
overcome but the owner just felt too down to go on.
During these times it is important to market to yourself. You
must be able to face problems while keeping your enthusiasm and
belief in your project.
Keep your optimism by realizing that many of the fears we have
aren't that firmly rooted in reality. Something bad happens and
we immediately imagine a whole string of disasters that could
follow. In the end, things are never as bad as we imagine.
Remind yourself most of your fears never materialize. The
optimist who keeps smiling even when things look grim probably
has a point.
Keep your enthusiasm going. It's hard to accomplish anything
without true passion and motivation for your work. I often
create a new service or add a small improvement to an existing
service just to keep my own enthusiasm up.
Remind yourself that all things in business require patience. We
may want it NOW, but the world is rarely ready to let us have it
that fast.

Q: Kevin,
I have an e-newsletter where I give tips on running an Internet
business. My question is, each issue I try to give new programs
that are good and report programs that are scams. Should I just
rotate opportunities each issue or only include a few each time?
I generally introdcue 5 or 6 opportunites each issue which is
every other or third day. Is that to many opportunities?
I don't get many takers, but I have only had a newletter for 2
1/2 months now and already 1005 people have opted in to read it.
I must be doing somthing good to keep them as subscribers--but
they won't sign up for the business opportunites.
Any idea how to resolve it so I get more sign-ups?
Barbara
A: Barbara,
I agree you're doing something right. 1005 subscribers in less
than 3 months is very good. You might do better to include
around 3 opportunities in each issue. It may take more time for
people to start to completely trust your information and sign up
for the opportunities. Keep the good information coming and it
will happen.
Best,
Kevin Nunley
