| Boost Your Affiliate Commissions With Free E-mail Courses
One of the most powerful ways to promote your affiliate programs
is to make your own free e-mail courses.
Providing a free e-mail course on your site enables you to
successfully follow up with your visitors, gain trust and
credibility with your readers, and can substantially increase
your profit promoting affiliate programs.
Your free e-mail course will give you a new and unique
promotional item that you can use to continuously promote your
affiliate programs without any extra work on your part.
To help you create your own profitable e-mail courses that will
increase your commissions, I've listed the following tips and
techniques:
1. Begin your course with an introduction that tells your
readers what your course will cover and highlights the benefits
your readers will get for taking your course.
2. Choose an autoresponder that lets you personalize your e-mail
course with your readers' name.
This will allow you to easily draw your readers' attention to
the parts of your course you want them to focus on.
3. Use information that is already available to you for your
course's content.
Many affiliate programs will provide you with articles that you
can publish in your e-zine or on your website, and these
articles can be used to form different parts of your course or
even your whole course.
4. When using another person's article or articles as content
for your course, introduce that writer to your readers by
telling them who that person is, why that person is an expert at
what they are talking about (i.e., they are the author of the
award winning manual...) and recommend their product or service
with a link to your affiliate URL.
5. If you already write articles, you can use your own articles
to form the basis of your course, and turn your articles into
another powerful marketing tool.
One major advantage to using your own articles as content for
your course is that you will be able to establish *yourself* as
the expert at what your course deals with which will build even
more trust and credibility between you and your readers.
6. Rewrite or edit your articles for inclusion in your free
e-mail course.
This will give you the added advantage of being able to
recommend and link to your affiliate programs within your
course's content instead of just promoting your affiliate
program in your resource box.
7. Use an aside -- a break in the information that tells your
readers how the product you are promoting can help them -- to
direct your readers' attention to your affiliate program.
Your aside can be a free bonus or a special benefit your readers
will get for purchasing the product.
8. Set your aside off with a separator such as ******* and
personalize your aside with your reader's name.
9. End your aside with a call to action that tells your readers
what you want them to do such as learn more now at
http://yourreferralurl.com or get the details now at
http://yourreferralurl.com.
10. End each part of your course with a conclusion that tells
your readers about the next part of your course and a
personalized PS that tells your readers again about the service
or product you wish to promote.
Your PS can be a recommendation, an added benefit for purchasing
the product you are promoting, or a combination of both.
11. End your PS with a call to action.
12. Continue to follow up with your readers periodically after
your readers have taken your course.
Remind your subscribers about the product or products you are
promoting, tell them of new specials or bonuses for purchasing
the product, or invite them to take new free e-mail courses or
to subscribe to your e-zine.
