| Generate More Sales in ANY Affiliate Program - Part Five
Affiliates make money in pretty much two ways, firstly by direct
sales (straight forward, no need to elaborate on this) and
secondly by commissions from on-selling.
In this article I will be focusing on the affiliates, better
known as your down line, your team, your partners, your network.
There are several different types of affiliates, the elusive
Super Affiliate, Active Affiliates from Direct Sales, Active
Affiliates who On-Sell and inactive affiliates.
The Active Affiliate from Direct Sales are the ones who join up
under you and maintain their subscription to the program/service
but don’t on-sell to others. Giving you Direct Sale Commission.
The Active Affiliate who On-Sell’s are the ones that provide you
passive income giving you a percentage of their sales, this is
known as TIER income. It is estimated that less than 5% of your
Active Affiliates from Direct Sales will become On-Sellers.
However, in saying that, the higher the commission on the
product/service the higher percentage rate for Active Affiliate
from Direct Sales to become On-Sellers.
So, lets look at a scenario, 25 Active Affiliates join under
you, selling web hosting and you get $10.00 per direct sale as
commission per month, assuming the Active Affiliate maintains
their subscription. That’s and extra $250 a month in your
pocket. Not a lot of money, BUT if you repeat this process in 9
other programs then your monthly income increases to $2500.00.
If the program being promoted is a necessity i.e. web hosting,
auto responders etc, it is likely the Active Affiliate will
maintain their subscription. However if the program is not a
necessity item such as an ebook or similar then it is unlikely
the affiliate will maintain their subscription, so choose
affiliate programs wisely.
Dedicated Active Affiliate On-Sellers are a picky group that
require a lot of maintenance, online support and regular
contact. The product/service has to be lucrative for them to
on-sell, with at least a 4+ tier system for it to be worthwhile.
Unless you have the time and money to invest in On-Seller’s then
my suggestion today is for you to go for width not depth, and
then duplicate it many times over providing Multiple Streams of
Income.
The last article in this series will focus fully on ACTIVE
AFFILIATES and how to get them. Till then to your online success!
