Affiliate Programs : How to Boost Your Affiliate Earnings in 3 Easy Steps

ended up selling several pieces of software that
week and got myself a nice check in the mail.

3. Spread The Word.

Get an ad into your own e-zine, rotate that ad for a few issues
and see how it does, and then when you've got a winning
responsive ad, try some other e-zines that would be a good match
for the product that you're advertising.

Here's the one that really works well for me. Send out a solo
mailing to your opt-in ezine list.

There are two key elements as to why this works so well. If
you've been building a good subscriber list, they're more
inclined to listen to what you have to say than some stranger
that they run across somewhere on the web. For me there is an
additional factor here. My list tends to be more receptive to
solo ads because I don't send them a lot of solo mailings in the
first place. So, they're less inclined to say "Oh no not another
one - Delete!"

The second reason, and this is perhaps the more important one -
I personalize it. This doesn't mean that I address everyone by
their name, (although that would really helpful but my list
server is kind of behind the times :-) ). What I mean, is that
the e-mail reads less of an ad and is more conversational in
tone. "Advertorial" is the correct term for this type of an ad I
believe.

It comes off far more believable than most of the ads out there.
Instead of pushing against a brick wall and saying "Here's a big
long ad - read it and buy what I'm flogging", I'm dropping in for
a friendly chat with a neat suggestion or answer to your problem,
want, or need. It works great!

There you have it - Three easy steps to help boost your affiliate
earnings. Implement them and you'll be on the road to seeing
better results.
