Welcome to Incognito money podcast Affiliate marketing has seen an explosion in popularity over the past decade, thanks to the rise of blogging and social media. Marketers are constantly looking for content, but with so much competition, it can be hard to get noticed and make money with affiliate marketing if you’re new to the game. But it can be done! If you follow these simple tips and tricks on how to start affiliate marketing as a beginner, you’ll be well on your way to turning your audience into paying customers. Join an affiliate network While affiliate marketing can be done with no money, it’s far easier if you have an established network of clients and referral sources. To start, search for affiliate networks in your niche on Google or Bing. Then, reach out to them with your website (which you’ll get in step 2) and tell them what kind of affiliate program you want to join. Do they have one? If not, ask how you might get one started. Create your own product Creating your own product is one of the most direct ways to make money with affiliate marketing. This can be anything from a video course to an ebook or even a physical product. The good thing about creating your own product is that you get full control over what it’s about, what information it contains and how much you want to charge for it. Choose your niche market There are two basic ways to become an affiliate marketer: promoting another company’s products or building your own. If you have no money, focus on building your own business. Decide whether you want to create and manage a website for affiliates or get into paid advertising with affiliate marketing networks like Google AdSense, which will manage most of your processes from start-to-finish. Use social media wisely Social media marketing can be an incredibly powerful tool for affiliate marketers. It’s not only a way to generate traffic and sales, but also an opportunity to engage directly with customers. If you have an established social media presence, or are able to build one quickly, you should be leveraging these networks for your affiliate marketing efforts. Set goals One of your first priorities is setting goals and determining how you will measure your success. These can be based on revenue targets, but remember that affiliate marketing income typically comes in over time—not all at once. Here are some questions to ask yourself: How much money do I want to make with affiliate marketing? What are my long-term income goals? What do I need to achieve my short-term (6-12 month) income goals? How will I know when I am successful with affiliate marketing? Avoid scams It may seem like it’s too good to be true, but there are many legitimate ways for you to start affiliate marketing with no money. Some of these include using Google AdWords, blogging on platforms like WordPress and Tumblr, or writing product reviews on sites like Amazon. Another method is making video reviews on YouTube and monetizing them through Google AdSense. The amount of money you can make with affiliate marketing depends entirely on how much effort you put into it—and how lucky you get! Promote yourself well Before you can make money from affiliate marketing, you need to get yourself known. If you’re not coming from an established business background, becoming an affiliate marketer is a great way to start out in your career because it’s very low risk—you don’t have anything of your own that you have to risk. Successful campaigns are about being resourceful and consistent Resourcefulness. For most people, affiliate marketing without a website is their first attempt at getting into affiliate marketing. No website means you’re limited in terms of tech tools—you probably won’t have access to your own custom-made landing pages, for example—but it also means you can focus on just one area: connecting with people and promoting products or services that interest them.
