y because If you are trying to succeed in affiliate marketing and will eventually replace your 905, it is crucial to understand each internal concept as well as the skills needed to succeed in affiliate marketing.

Okay, let's get into it, so first let's talk about what affiliate marketing is and how it works. Affiliate marketing is where an affiliate promotes another companies product for a percentage of commission, so it goes like this: a company wants to generate more income and get more customers, let's say I really like the products or services that the company provides , I would sign up to become one of your affiliates and my job is to promote your products and earn commissions every time someone buys something through me, so it's a win-win situation for you and the company you are in. join because not only will they generate more sales, they will have more customers, but they will also be a part of that.

Here are some well-known companies that offer affiliate programs, screenshotted so you can see them after this video and now let's see talk about the pros and cons of affiliate marketing, so the pros are that you don't have any inventory, the companies you are joining are already handling it and secondly, you also don't need to handle customer services because, again, the company you belong to. Re-affiliating already does this for you, so all you have to do is basically promote the goods or services that the company already offers. When you sign up for the affiliate program, they will send you a link called an affiliate link or They will give you a code similar to a promo code for customers to use.

They will also tell you how much each commission you will receive when you help generate a sale, which means when someone buys something through your affiliate link or uses your promotion. code when they buy something on the company's website and here come the disadvantages. Most affiliate programs require you to have a sales funnel set up that leads to your affiliate link. A sales funnel is basically a step or a website before customers enter your affiliate. link If you are creating high converting sales funnels, it will really help you make a lot more

money

because more people will most likely buy whatever you are promoting.

However, sales funnel builders are expensive, for example, when I started I was using click funnels. which costs 97 a month, there is also another funnel builder called builder raw which costs 69 a month, so as a beginner you probably want to minimize the cost when you start, but don't worry, I have a solution for you. Later in this video we will show you a completely free sales funnel builder. Of course, another disadvantage is that it's not as profitable if you're trying to promote inexpensive physical products, such as books, plants, or anything that doesn't cost that much to buy.

Let's say you get 10 commission for every sale you make and a book costs around 20, you will only make two dollars every time you sell the book, so if you really want to make money from that you will have to sell a lot of books. To be honest, that wasn't really a scam, but it's always good to keep in mind when you're looking for a company or products to affiliate with. Now that you understand what affiliate marketing is and how it works, let me show you exactly how. you can start affiliate marketing with zero dollars and be successful at it.

Well, let's go. First you need to choose a niche, make sure it's something that interests you or just a niche that you know a lot about, whether it's finance. or business mascots, home decor and furnishings, even something like the relationship niche; It is actually very popular in the affiliate marketing industry. Honestly, there are tons you can choose from, just make sure you choose something you are passionate about or know a lot about. about and for this video I'm going to choose the pet niche, so what I'm going to do is search for pet affiliate programs on Google.

By the way, I don't have any pets, although I love them, I just chose the pet niche because it is very popular and they have many good affiliate programs, so after searching for pet affiliate programs you will see many articles that show you some of the best pet affiliate programs that you can promote, so I will choose this one. website because I already reviewed it, let's jump in and take a look, as you can see, this article will show you the 40 best pet affiliate programs for 2022 and all we will do is choose one since you are just starting out, so it is It is very important to do a little research or know the niche you chose.

This article talks about the best niches, the ones where you find that wonderful combination of raving fans and enduring appeal, meaning something people are always looking for. It drives me crazy and never fades or goes away and of course the pet industry has both. I'm going to read a little of what it says in an article so that you know a little more about the pet niche. Pet lovers are willing to spend almost any amount of money to keep their pet happy, comfortable, and well fed, which means there's plenty of scope for promoting pet affiliate programs to crunch some numbers.

Pet owners in the US spend $103 billion on their furry feathers. and flaky friends only in 2020, which means you can actually make a lot of money selling or promoting products within this niche. As you can see, here is a list of pet affiliate programs that you can promote and let's go over some of them, so the first one is peco peco is a huge company and they are very well known in the states, they sell basically any pet item and One important thing to always check is their commission rate, but for Petco it is only four percent, obviously not very good and Honestly, their product prices are relatively low and the cookie duration is only seven. days, which means that when a customer goes to your affiliate link and for some reason did not purchase, they exit the link and continue with their day, but if they return to the Petco website within seven days.

Petco's website will recognize that these customers came through you first, meaning if they end up purchasing something, you'll get the commission. Now let's move on to the second. It's a digital training course to train your dogs now if you've been following me on tick tock you know that I love promoting digital products because they are usually priced much higher than physical products and you also get higher commissions. Their commission rate is 75 which is really good compared to pekka and the cookie duration is 60 days. I really like this one, but let's look at one more. This company sells dog food, but to be honest, just reading the description of what they sell is not very appealing, I really don't like it. that, but they pay you 60 every time you make a sale, so it's actually pretty good.

I just don't really like the product they sell which is how they described it so I will go back to the brain training for dog affiliate program and to join their affiliate program just click the link here. It will take you to a page that talks about their affiliate program. It's always good to read it just to make sure it's legit first. Secondly, there are statistics to see if it is legit. a good product that sells because you don't want to promote something that doesn't sell because how are you going to make money? When I was reading this, I discovered that they actually offer promotional videos for you to use similar keyword ideas. audiences just so you have more resources when it comes to promoting your products, which is awesome because a lot of times you have to do it yourself, but if they offer it that's a green flag.

Now let's click on the link to register as an affiliate. Once you enter the program, you will see this Clickbank page. Just type any account nickname it doesn't really matter and also ignore the tracking id and click generate jump links basically your affiliate link and keep in mind that this link is very important because that is where the company tracks of your sales, so you get paid for any purchases made outside of your affiliate link, you won't receive a commission, I usually just copy the link and put it in my notes or something, so now let's see what it looks like that within the affiliate link I really like your website.

It looks very professional. I can see that it converts very well. This is the part where you know what they sell so you can promote it better, as you can see what they offer. a lot into the program and I would be totally happy to recommend this product to someone else because in this video I am a pet expert and I will see how this program can benefit many pet owners so scroll down there is a button that says instant access and when you click on it, it will take you to their checkout page, which is where purchases are made and also where you get a commission.

So far everything looks amazing so I finally decided to go for their affiliate program. Now I'm going to show you the free sales funnel builder I was talking about and show you step by step how to operate it, as well as how to create a high-quality converting sales funnel, so the funnel builder is called system. io, just google it. once you find it you can log in and check its features because this website is also very useful for other online side hustles which is great because email marketing can make you a lot more money just by sending emails and offering other products which is promoting the sales funnel I'm creating for this video.

I'm going to set up email integration so we can collect emails from people who come in and make more money with email marketing. I put the link to this website in the description so you can easily sign up there. I already have an account so I'll log in once you log into your account click on funnels at the top and click create. You're going to write a nickname for this funnel so you know what it is. It is to click on the create an audience option, as you can see, the purpose here is to collect email addresses and create your email list, then press create.

You can now choose a template for the capture page. A capture page is basically where your potential customers arrive and stay. Keep in mind that you should choose a template that looks like the page within your affiliate link because people will get confused when they see these two different pages back to back and think that anything you offer here might not be trustworthy and we want trust because that's where the money is made, as you can see the template I chose is white and blue matches the page inside the affiliate link, don't worry so much about the name and URL path, just click edit page like this that here We are building our funnel.

They made it very easy for you to operate and here I show you all the elements you can add to your sales funnel. I don't need to explain so much about the elements, I'm sure it would be necessary. There's no time for you to figure it out. I'm just going to show you roughly how I will build a sales funnel for this affiliate program and its products. As you can see, I'm just removing some of the things I don't want and dragging some of the other elements to where I wanted to be. I love how easy they made it for you to operate because other funnel builders I've used in the past aren't that easy.

I always like to add an image, it's more convincing. and people who come through your link would know that there is a real person behind this, so I chose this photo of me and a cat. This is the only photo I can find of me with a pet. I'll use it anyway because it shows that. I'm a pet owner, so pet owners who see this will think I'm somewhat trustworthy and I'll just drag this image up between the title and the small text again. You can easily change the sizes and basically customize the item however you want, I know this training course is for dogs but I don't have any photos of me with a dog so I'll just talk about this cat in this funnel.

Be sure to write a title that summarizes what we're offering English is my second language. I'm terrible at writing, so if I write something that doesn't make sense, please don't come to me, so here I'm just changing the colors and font to mix and match the whole theme. in the paragraph below the image I will only introduce myself a little and roughly tell mystories about pet training, you can talk about anything, your

experience

s, things you have learned, your credibility or even some jokes if you want, the purpose here is. to connect whoever is reading this and also to show that you are a really trustworthy person, so here I just wrote hello, my name is alice liu and I am a pet expert.

My goal is to help you train your pets not to misbehave. be obedient and well behaved, this is my exact formula on how I trained my cat not to bite or scratch me, basically everything here is nonsense because I don't have a cat, that cat is not mine for the purpose of this video. I'm only going to write what is ideal, but when you do this make sure to be truthful and transparent, so here I am writing a call to action, click here to get my guide as soon as possible, so I invite people to do Click the button below, now let's customize. the button scrolls down and finds the text box and replaces the default text with something like I want I want it now I also like adding emojis because they are so fun, so far it looks pretty good, we are not done yet although now we want to do Click on the pop-up windows button right next to the settings button.

What I want to see is the part where people will enter their email addresses and it will be collected, so here I just wrote, subscribe here to receive my personal tips on pet training. Once they correctly enter their emails, you can start sending them emails. to share your tips and offer other products that you promote after customizing the popup you will find a section that says do you want to redirect users after contact registration? Choose a custom URL, so this is the place where by the way, put your affiliate link and always make sure to save your changes because you really don't want to lose any progress.

Now let's edit the settings of the I want button and now, all you need to do is select Show. popup for the section called action when the button is clicked, select the popup that you customized earlier and once again save the changes. I forgot to add more for the popup basically just to disable the popup opening automatically and also disable opening on exit. Intended for the popup to only appear when people click the "want and now" button okay, everything looks pretty good, let's preview it to see if the buttons work. I really like how it looks, it's not very complicated, it's simple and straightforward. the point is exactly what we want, it's fine and the popup looks pretty good, the buttons work well and they also success

y took me to my affiliate link.

Now I'll quickly show you how I customize the rest of the funnel again, feel free to customize it. However you want, you can choose to add or remove things depending on your tastes because it really doesn't have to look exactly like mine. I know you guys will do great building yours, just to make sure you're patient and take your time, at this point I'm almost done customizing this funnel. I just want to make sure to mention that having several “I want now” buttons will make the whole process of moving from your sales funnels to your affiliate easier. linking is much easier for people who do, so on the second button in my sales funnel I simply repeated what I did for the first, so it looks like our sales funnel is complete.

Let's look at it one more time to see if it works and if anything needs to be changed, I really like the structure and the look. Don't forget that I wrote approximately all of these paragraphs, so when you do this, make sure you add more details and just make it better than I did it right, it looks like all the buttons work and the flow. See how fluid the flow is between these pages? That's what we want to be able to convert a lead into a customer now that we've finished building the sales funnel. Save it.

Copy the link and you can take it to any social media platform to promote the products and get exposure for your sales funnel. There are many ways to promote your products for free, for example you can go to Facebook and search for groups of people. that are interested in what you are promoting, you can also go to tick tock, post videos related to your niche or the product you are promoting, put your link on the tick tock profile and make sure people know about it so they can get more information. about, say, pet training, then they should definitely check out the link in their profile and then from there let their sales funnels do the work.

You can also promote your products on Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, it doesn't cost you any money to promote on these social networks. media platforms, you will never know what works for you so I recommend you try tik tok which works best for me and I will be sure to make another video talking about how exactly you can do affiliate marketing on tic tac so I hope you The guys learned a lot in this video and if you have any questions in the comments, let me know.
