What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is basically in short, selling others’ products as an affiliate. An

affiliate is like an independent salesperson that gets a commission on each

completed sale. You can be an affiliate of many affiliate programs or just one. It’s

your choice. And you can sell anything online from physical products like DVDs,

vitamin supplements to digital products like ebooks and music MP3 files.

Becoming an affiliate is not a difficult task on the internet. There are dozens of

affiliate programs online that accepts almost everyone into their program. And

registration is in most cases, free.

The job of the affiliate is to expose the product to potential buyers. Making the

sales however does require some work on your part as an affiliate. The whole

marketing process can be an interesting one albeit challenging for some. When I

first started on affiliate marketing, I too faced some difficulties in getting it right.

But I soon learnt through ebooks, forums and from people who made it good.

Affiliate marketing is one of the greatest opportunity and indeed easiest ways for

anyone to make a fortune online. The Dot Com boom and increasing interest and

usage of the internet as the main source for information has created many

opportunities for products to be sold online.

Anyone can get started and do it full time or part time. It does not matter what

you are doing offline for a living. You can be a teacher, an engineer, a banker, a

doctor (yes, there are doctors who switched to affiliate marketing as their new

career), a retail sales assistant, a crane operator, a full-time mother or even a

teen. Yes, there are some celebrity affiliate marketers who dropped out from

college to pursue affiliate marketing. Surely, there must be something alluring?

Ok, by now, your appetite must be whetted. The reason why I wrote this book is

to show you the killer secrets of affiliate marketing for you to succeed and not

struggle as an affiliate and hopefully become the next internet marketing guru!

I encourage you to read through every page thoroughly, pen down your thoughts

and work on the proven plan I crafted towards the end of the report.

It is not what you know but applying what you learnt that makes you

successful!
