6 THINGS YOU MUST KNOW BEFORE YOU CHOSE AN

6 THINGS YOU MUST KNOW BEFORE YOU CHOSE AN
AFFILIATE PROGRAM
by: oluwafisayo akinlolu
so you want to choose an affiliate program or
ARE YOU ALREADY INVOLVED IN ONE?

these are six tips you must understand deeply.
BUT FIRST, UNDERSTAND THAT AFFILIATE PROGRAMS
work just like network marketing. i said it
works like it because it involves down-lines.

now to get started. once you understand these
tips and use them wisely, you would make a real
SUCCESS OUT OF THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM YOU CHOOSE.

1.choose the right affiliate program.

before you pick an affiliate program, make
double sure it is the right one. check the
COMPANY'S PROFILE. YOU CANNOT BE IN A MOVING
vehicle and remain stagnant. if your affiliate
program is one that makes steady progress, you
ALSO MAKE PROGRESS. IF IT IS STAGNANT, YOU
inevitably will be stagnant. check for the
company's age. companies in their first two
YEARS PAY HIGH, BUT THEY FACE THE RISK OF
quitting all too soon. they are but infants.
companies in their first seven years are more
LIKELY TO BE STABLE. OLDER COMPANIES ARE
reliable. very reliable. they have a track
record which you can easily check out and have
GOOD ORGANISATION BUILT FROM YEARS OF EXISTENCE.

2.what are the companies' products.

please be very careful. only a thin line
separates multi-level marketing (mlm) or
AFFILIATE PROGRAMS FROM ILLEGALITY. YOU ARE
however safe if the company has a product it
sells. never join a pyramid scheme. i am not an
EXPERT AT THAT BUT I SUPPOSE PYRAMID SCHEMES ARE
scams. if the company does not offer a product
or service, you might as well forget it.

3.check the compensation plan.

YOUR PRIMARY REASON FOR JOINING AN AFFILIATE
program is to make money! should i say that
again? to make money! so please, check the
COMPENSATION PLAN. MAKE SURE IT SUITS YOU. WHEN
dose the company pay? at what rate? how does the
company pay? if it doesn't go down well with
YOU, JUST FORGET IT AND FIND YOURSELF ANOTHER
affiliate program with which you feel
comfortable.

note however that even if the commission
schedule is small but sure, the work you do can
HELP YOU BLOW IT ALL UP. THINK OF $1 IN 1000
places ($1000). it can be achieved weekly. you
can realise that with almost all affiliate
PROGRAMS.

the bottom line, choose a program that suits
YOU.

4.join free programs but....
A LOT OF AFFILIATE PROGRAMS ALLOW YOU TO JOIN
for free. i suggest you join the free ones. my
reason is; you can easily leave without much
LOSS. I FEEL SORRY FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE TRIED
several programs and paid heavily just to
realise it is not the right one. but if you
THINK YOU CAN AFFORD IT, THEN THE CHOICE IS
yours.

ONCE YOU'VE MADE A CHOICE, REMEMBER THESE LAST
two tips!

5.BUILD YOUR TEAM OF AFFILIATES.

this can be the most excruciating part of it
ALL, BUT ONCE YOU HAVE A TEAM OF DOWN-LINES WHO
are active, it is well worth it.

ALWAYS REMEMBER, "FOR EVERY TWELVE, THERE IS
always a judas." there will always be bad apples
in a barrel. find the good ones, train them,
HELP THEM AND YOU HAVE SIMPLY HELPED YOURSELF.

how do you know the good ones? simple; watch out
FOR THOSE THAT ASK QUESTIONS, CONTACT YOU AND
fulfil all requirements in short periods of
time. go for them and you are building a money
SPINNING BUSINESS.

6.put yourself in the shoes of those you want to
RECRUIT.

make things easy for them. put together all the
INFORMATION AND DELIVER IT TO THEM. I KNOW IT
took you sometime getting the information. help
them get it in a shorter time. probably in few
HOURS. CONTACT THEM ALWAYS. ANSWER THEIR
questions. give them all the help you can. show
them what to do and help them do it right.

remember, you help them; you simply help
yourself. put yourself in their shoes and do
EXACTLY WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE LOVED IF YOU WERE IN
their shoes.
