 Here we are. Were going to go through affiliate marketing from A to Z. Im going to show you a campaign. This campaign made me in the order of $20,000 and it was a pretty low-priced product, so you can imagine how much of this Ive sold.
Im going to show you everything that I did step-by-step as quickly as I can.
You might be thinking at the outset that this had a lot to do with the size of my list. Yes, you do need a list to do affiliate marketing. Im also going to be touching on that as well.
You also really need a website. If you dont have a website yet get over to www.KioskWebsiteHosting.com. Apart from that youre pretty much ready to go and Ill show you every step of the way exactly what I did.
First off let me go through how I actually promoted this product as an affiliate. It doesnt matter the size of your list. You can have 100 people on your list and have a massive payday. Do not get obsessed with the size of
your list.
The first thing I did is I started pre-launching this and pre-selling this before the product even went live. It went live on a Tuesday and this is the Monday not the Monday before the launch, but the Monday the week before the launch, so this is over a week before the product went live. This is the email that I sent out.
Surprise, surprise! Heres another pdf newsletter for you and I sent them off to my blog, giving them some snippets of what is in the newsletter, which included this bit
Ex-Gangster Turned Internet Marketer Reveals His Site-Stealing Secrets
This is a promo. The product that Im telling you about let me just click back there, I kind of jumped the gun a little bit is this, Harris Fellmans www.SiteStealing.com. That is the product. Its essentially a product that tells you how to swipe and steal sites legally, model from the best, borrow from the successful campaigns. Thats the product and this is what I did.
So I sent that email out. That was the first step that I did, sending people to my blog, so this is on my blog where I sent people first. I sent them to go and grab this pdf.
When youre building up your list its a great idea to send multiple things out to them in different formats. Dont just send email text. Send video, send audio, stuff that they can download, and people on my list really love these pdf documents.
So I sent them to my blog to go and download this, and some people obviously went on and commented.
So you download this and what happens? This is what you actually get. This is inside the newsletter, and then here you can see so this is again a week before the products gone live Im putting it in the newsletter. This is a free newsletter. Theres a lot of free content in here, and also in here Ive got this headline
x-Gangster Turned.reveals his site-stealing secrets next week so Im telling them that its coming, its on the way.
Ive been reviewing a new product that a lot of marketers have missed the boat on. Its being unveiled on Tuesday, the 17th of July, next week.
Im telling them about it but Im importantly not giving them a link to click on. Thats really getting people hungry, building up their desire, making them feel curious, but not actually giving them anything to click on.
I include a little picture there. The reason Ive done that is to start the branding. Harris had a really well-branded site. It was branded all the way through to this character they called Sal the Gangster, all throughout his website with videos and in the product as well, so Ive just put that in here so that people see it right from the beginning. Over a week before the products gone live they start to associate with this character.
Who is he? Is he really a gangster? Is it like a made-up thing? Can you actually steal sites? How am I going to make money? Whats the link? Whats the website called? Who is this guy? Im raising and creating curiosity.
Scrolling down, theres the rest of the newsletter with various things in there.
P.S. Youre going to discover how you can legally steal sites next week. Im going to show you who this guy is. Ive included another picture of him here.
Its important that you try this type of technique by blacking things out, name censored or removing things, giving people a little bit of the information but also holding some of it back so theyre thinking, I really want to find out what that is, even if theyre not 100% keen on getting the product. They want to find out what that information is.
So that was Step 1, sending out that pdf newsletter and raising curiosity.
Lets go back to my list of emails then and Ill show you what the next thing is that I sent.
Later that week on Thursday I emailed people with, If site stealing was legal, would you do it? This is tapping into people who have already read the newsletter and its giving them a little bit more information.
Ive said Yes, its coming out next week. Dont sue me. None of these tactics are actually illegal, and then I start dropping further carrots.
This is the fastest way to improve results of almost any sales page. If you correctly ____ ____, your results can skyrocket.
Level 2 ____ and run. If youre starting out youll love this strategy.
I go and Ive used this stuff. I havent created this stuff myself. I grabbed it from his sales page, so remember that. Its a great idea when youre putting an affiliate promotion together, whether youre sending it via email, putting it on your website, your blog or anything, is to use the sales letter from the product. Either get permission or just go ahead and borrow some of the stuff from the product sales page and give that to the people that youre trying to educate.
Look, this is the great stuff, the cool stuff, so Ive done that, but Ive blanked some of it out, again to raise curiosity.
Even now you can see in the newsletter there was no link, and even in this email theres no link. I put here, Do you want to know more about site stealing?
Then Im saying, What happens next week Tuesday when it goes live? I say that Im going to be doing an incredible bonus, and then I say, P.S. Whats wrong? Are you looking for something to click on? because Im not giving them a link.
People want a link at this stage. Theyve already seen the newsletter. Theyve seen the pictures of the guy. They know a bit about the product and the site stealing idea, or the notion of it, but Im not giving them anything to click on. Im building up the curiosity.
The only thing I did send them to click on is my blog so they can go back and post comments and discuss with other people how theyre getting excited about it. This is all the week before.
It then gets to the week of the launch. This one, as you can see, is the Monday before the launch. Im priming them now. Im telling my list, Get ready, its coming. To read more go to http://Affiliate-Millions-Riches.com
