A typical online business uses at the very least a website hosting software and an email marketing software. Both of these are good for affiliates because you can earn ongoing commissions if you choose to promote them.

Making Money Software From Scratch

If you’re not already doing affiliate marketing, you can learn by signing up on this website for the free video series. Affiliates promote other people’s products by using various software to do so. You can use the same software you promote too, as an affiliate.

One of the programs I promote as an affiliate offers training and software products to help other affiliates build a business from scratch. Take a look at the video below (click image) for an example of a website building software:

But how do affiliate marketers use this money making software to actually make money?

Becoming An Affiliate Marketer

Anyone can become an affiliate marketer and promote other people’s products over the internet. Some affiliates build websites and write regular blogs. Others create videos and build email lists, and still others just use paid marketing to build internet businesses: all based on selling things they don’t even personally own.

Here’s a few benefits of becoming an affiliate marketer:

• You can work from anywhere
• Choose your own working hours
• Build your business around existing commitments
• Work from anywhere
• Work around an existing job
• There’s no earning limit
• You have a global reach with an online business
• Pay is performance related

Affiliate marketing is a strategy to enlist money making software within a completely flexible internet based business. But it’s not all upside! There are some drawbacks to using affiliate marketing:

• You don’t personally own the business/products you’re promoting
• Pay is performance related – you earn nothing for some time before you make any sales.
• There’s a learning curve which can take time and effort.
• Getting traffic (online visitors) is time consuming or expensive

The Sales Funnel

A sales funnel is what affiliate marketers use to sell their products and services. The funnel starts from an advertising platform or organic traffic generation. Some affiliates pay money to get their businesses going through advertising, and others build content. Building content in an attempt to send visitors directly to products or landing pages takes much longer than by using paid marketing.

Online visitors are sent to a landing page where they are offered a freebie giveaway products; like the free videos I offer on this site. From there, they enter the sales funnel and are sent direct emails offering the giveaway – a legitimate bribe which is of some use. The marketer will then usually follow up with regular emails promoting the product/s.

But the funnel doesn’t end there with a good range of products. Ideally, choose a range of products to promote rather than just one. With a product range, the affiliate can build regular customers who use software products which pay recurring commissions. Then they can also buy products later from the range you have.

This is a mistake many affiliates make. They choose to sell one products from which they can only earn single commissions. In a local store, the owner makes a large proportion of their income from the locals – people who are regular, loyal customers. The same should be true of an online business. With regular customers, you can earn small commissions on a regular basis. This helps to quickly establish a sustainable income from an online business.
