Welcome to the wide world of affiliate marketing!
So, what is an affiliate and what does he or she do?
The affiliate marketer acts as a middle man between merchant and consumer,
but without adding anything to the consumers cost.
Affiliates do not mark up or resell products.
Instead, the affiliate educates and directs the consumer to a product, and they
receive a percentage of the sale in commission from the merchant.
The affiliate acts as an independent lead generator for the merchant by
bringing in new customers.
This is a win-win situation for both the affiliate and the merchant.
The affiliate can reap a full-time income marketing a whole suite of products
that he does not own. They dont pay for product creation, dont have to ship
anything and dont deal with customer service issues or returns.
The merchant benefits from the influx of new customers, the boatloads of
cheap traffic and low cost advertising. Merchants get their product and their
brand in front of thousands of potential buyers without paying a dime until
someone makes a purchase.
It is truly a pay for performance arrangement.
Its also one of the toughest types of business to earn a significant income
from. Competition is fierce and almost 95 of affiliates earn little or no
income.
For the lucky few, the ones that know how to do it the rewards can be
