15 Proven Ways to Promote Affiliate Products – Part 1

There is no doubt that affiliate marketing is the easiest way to make money online. As an affiliate you don’t have to create products, build websites, provide customer service or any of the 1000 other things product owners have to do. What you do as an affiliate is promote and cash the checks!

If that sounds great it’s because it IS great. Affiliate marketing is a great way of life but not nearly as easy as everyone seems to say it is. So I’ve created three videos to help you get a handle on affiliate marketing and know exactly what to do next. I hope you like them.

    Hi Charlie,

    Thought to drop by and watch video on 15 proven ways to affiliate marketing ..you know I discounted solo ads thinking of them like traffic exchange mail outs..but I understand to value them as a ezine ad not just a quick headline type procedure..I guess that is why you pay for what you receive. I do look forward to joining DOE hopefully in the next fortnight all goes well.

  11. Great videos as always Charlie. Yes We need to join your membership to work out a plan.
    I WILL DO soon

  12. Tim Pond says:

    Sage advice. When you find the money key words and use great headlines, banners and ppc ads can be very profitable.
    Thank you,
    Tim

  17. Charlie,

    This is amazing content. I am a huge advocate of Ezine Advertising, and I also do my fair share of Pay-Per-Click, however, I had NO clue about the other three you mentioned on this video.

    Due to this email, I will now start looking heavily into banners and viral marketing. Thanks for the tip.

    Looking forward for the other videos…

    See you then…

You are in my first priority list. Thanks for being here in Internet for the people like me and others..

  22. Jaypee says:

    Hi Charlie,

    My very first time to comment in anybody’s website/blog. Great substantial information for all entrepreneur and newbie affiliate marketer like me.

  23. John Stapleton says:

    Charlie, I’m just about to pop the $ for the “Lifetime Membership”-been following your words for a while, and you seem to make the most sense of all! I feel I owe you for the “free” advice you’ve given in the past!
    Great stuff, extremely professional, and I look forward to talking with you directly shortly.

  24. Alan Outen says:

    Presentation was easy with great content. I will join as soon as I have the cash. I am a newbie with less cash than experience!

  25. Charlie,

    Thanks for the very interesting video. I look forward to the other 2 and hearing and seeing the entire picture.

    I have a different problem to one of your other commenters – I have a fair amount of knowledge, but very little time to get things done. One of the solutions to the problem could be to work together with someone else that compliments your abilities and availability.

    What I mean is to take someone who has the knowledge, but not time, and put them to work with someone who has the time, but not the knowledge. That way, both can change their circumstances, so that they both learn together and both create more time together. Two people working together can produce far more than each one separately, so 1 + 1 = 3 (possibly even 4).

    Now I am off to post some ads in the DOE :-)

    Cya there!

    • Sharon says:

  31. Charlie,

    Another great piece of work, certainly overdelivering as you usually do. I am looking forward to the next videos.

    Thank you,
    Michael

  32. Hi Charlie

    I have to say that all 3 things your mentioned in the video is right on target. Keeping it simple makes it so the average person knows instantly what to do.

    It’s like I mentioned to you the other day … when I put the simple information you gave me to use, it’s going to make me thousands and thousands, and hundreds of thousands of dollars.

    Some times the biggest bang for your buck can come from some of the simplest ways of doing things. So I’m really looking forward to your next videos.

    And like I’ve also mentioned; I know from talking to some of my members that use your services as well that they get the same great information from you to help them with their own online marketing.

    Thank you for your time and effort. I believe I speak for myself and my members when I say we appreciate it very much.

  33. Charlie,

    Just watched your first video and really enjoyed it. I have just a couple of questions:

    1) What if I do not have a website, sales letter, or squeeze page?
    2) I have the time, but not the knowledge to become an Affiliate;
    What is the best way to start?
    3) Would it really help me to become a lifetime member? I have
    some money to spend, but being retired and not versed in
    creating ( see #1), where could I get some help?

    There is no question that I have the time; (being retired), but I do get confused when reading the “how to do” types of things.

    Thanks in advanced,

    Tom

    • Charlie says:

      Tom,

      Good questions. Here are my answers.

      1. The great thing about affiliate marketing is that you don’t need a website to do it well. Having a site of your own is completely optional when it comes to affiliate marketing. You don’t need a sales letter, squeeze page or site to make a great start. After positive cash flow is achieved you can hire these things done if you want to begin building a list and take your efforts to another level, but that is only one option.

      2. The best way to start is to read a good book on the subject or find someone who will help you understand the process. It’s really not hard to understand. As an affiliate you are a commissioned salesman. As such your responsibility is to successfully advertise the product you choose to promote.

      3. Lifetime membership helps if you want to promote products (your own or someone else’s) and make money online. And if you want someone to help you one-on-one there is that benefit of membership too with my free consulting offer to DOE Lifetime members.

      Getting confused is easy to do. The key is to know what to do next and take it a step at a time while still seeing the big picture.

      Hope this helps.

      Charlie

  34. Pat says:

    Enjoyed the info. Haven’t gotten my ideas pulled together yet, but, hopefully, I will one day. Don’t have the money right now to invest in anything, but maybe I can soon. What do you recommend joining – lifetime membership for DOE or the follow-up program?

    How do you make sure that your business is safe online? I was in a one of the SBI websites and got a “phishing” message from my McAffee program. It is my understanding from talking with techs that it’s almost impossible to be 100% sure that you’re totally safe.

    Thanks for the information. PB

    • Charlie says:

      Pat,

      Thank you for your comment. The DOE is better if you know you want to do ezine advertising or article marketing where Follow Up Selling Systems is better if you know you want to focus on list building and using email to sell things.

      McAfee and other programs exist to keep us safe. Keep them updated and they will do that for you. The fact that they found a suspicious message simply means they are doing their job, which is a good thing. I’m on a Mac so don’t really have those issues. But do keep that program updated so it can do its job and you should be fine.

      Thanks,

      Charlie

  35. Roxie Boyd says:

    Charlie,

    Nice video presentation. I usually don’t watch videos, but occasionally I will listen to one while I am preparing dinner. I am looking forward to the next two videos in the series. One of these days I am going to get over to the DOE, I am a lifetime member after all.

  36. Hi Charlie, I have advertise, CPC, and i cannot get any leads for my Vemma business. I don’t like doing cold calls so i have paid a lot of money to learn how to advertise online and i still have not made any money so far. Instead i owe money that i don’t have. Maybe i am not doing things right who knows. When it comes to banners. I asked someone who has a website if i could put my Vemma banner on her website and she said i could for $50.
    I need help. Thank you.

    • Charlie says:

      Rebecca,

      It can cost money to display banners on websites or it can be a benefit of membership as it is with DOE. The person who asked you for $50 was trying to sell you banner ad space, that’s all.

      Cold calling is a very inefficient way to get leads, no doubt about that. And it’s not fun either! It sounds like the money you spent on learning how to advertise online is not yielding a return. I might suggest reviewing that material again as sometimes we pick up on things the second time around, and then trying one technique for a few weeks to see how that works.

      Also, the people who sold you the material should be willing to help you use it. That’s just the right way to do business.

      Hope this helps,

      Charlie

  37. Mary Elliot says:

    Hi Charlie,

    Interesting and informative as usual – looking forward to 2 and 3!

    Thanks as always,

    Mary

  38. Hey Charlie,
    Your video’s were great, I only wish I would have learned this information sooner, I know I would not be in my current position right now. I will call you on Monday so you can help me get on the right track. Thank You for your great knowledge and sincere desire to help others. There are not many out there like you. Your Zine is Great.

  39. Tammy Fox says:

    WOW! What an amazing and easy to understand source of information! I am so excited! I’ve wanted to join Ezine Directory for the last few months but can’t come up with the membership. Am more determined than ever, after listening to this info, to get involved with you, Charlie, to finally break through the wall I’ve been beating my head against for the last year. Thank you for your slow, easy to understand wisdom. I devour your emails and look forward to becoming a member soon.

    Tammy
