means without having to actually buy the product or
service.

a free ebook, e-report, software, etc. The bonus
should be closely related to the product or service.
3. Offer them 50% commission or more. People
have been branded their whole life that 50/50 is a
fair deal.

will feel like they have a better chance to earn more
commissions without a lot of competition.

affiliate then buy your product. They will receive a
discount and receive commission.

repeatedly. Persuade them to subscribe to your ezine

affiliates, it will cost money to become an affiliate.
8. Publish testimonials and endorsements from your
affiliates. Your offer will be extra effective if they
are from well known people your visitors respect.

actual check you paid one of your tops affiliates.

persuade them to sign up like: "Would you like to
be able to retire before you're 40?"
