What Is Affiliate Marketing And How Can It Help Me?

Affiliate Marketing can be very helpful for entrepreneurs or anyone looking to make a second stream of income. When you want to make some money but you don’t have the time or ability to come up with the product, becoming an affiliate can solve this issue.

It’s basically like a “refer-a-friend” service for some companies, except you get a “commission” or portion of the sale when a purchase is made by someone you referred to the company.

Some Examples Of Affiliate Marketing

• Mary Kay
• Body by Vi or Visalus
• Thirty One
• Dove Chocolates
• Amazon Affiliates
• More!

If you’re not interested in selling door-to-door or through traditional means, you can find many companies and be a little creative to sell strictly online from behind the comfort of your own computer.

Is Affiliate Marketing Right For Me?

To be successful with affiliate marketing, you have to have the mindset that you own a part of the company. You gotta own it!

Keep in mind that many people are out there selling the exact same products and services that you are, and what will determine if someone buys from YOU instead of someone else selling the exact same thing is all about how you present yourself. Are you passionate about the product / service / company? Do you truly believe in it as well as yourself? You need to buy into it yourself before others will want to buy from you.

Affiliate Marketing can save you a lot of time and heartache from having to plan and create your own products. You have the option of doing this part time for spare cash or go into it full-time. There’s potential for success in both.
