How To Start Affiliate Marketing For

Beginners
I'm gonna show you how to get started if you're a complete beginner below right
here a step by step way for you to go from zero to hero.

Hey, so if you're looking to start affiliate marketing and you are a complete
beginner,first of all, we're going to be, one, the first part of affiliate marketing is
joining an affiliate network and this is where you find products you can sell or
link to and make commissions from. First step. Second step, is you wanna find a
product. A specific product that you can sell on the internet that you resonate
with and that you can make money with so that's going to be our second thing.
The third thing that we're going to do, is we're going to actually go out there and
sell it.

Now, if you are a serious action-taker, I recommend go through all these steps in
as following step by step and actually you can start earning your first
commissions right now if you just take these steps.

If we Google just affiliate networks, for instance, we'll find a bunch of results,
we'll find a ton. And we'll see if we just look up the top 10 affiliate networks that
aren't Amazon, we'll see a ton of affiliate networks, we see ClickBank, JVZoo,
GiddyUp, ShareASale, Avangate, how do you decide what to join?

Now, first off, two great affiliate networks to join are Amazon and my other
favorite is ClickBank. So Amazon Affiliate Network is very easy to join. And you'll
see there's a lot of ways you can make money with Amazon. Selling, private label
brands, business, et cetera but what we're interested is Become an Affiliate. Earn
up to 10% advertising fees with a trusted e-commerce leader. Join now for free.
Okay?So very easy to join and start selling stuff on Amazon.

See it says, Join, Advertise, Earn and basically you'll just wanna join and one of
the things it will ask you for is it will ask you to put in a website. Now, do you
have a Facebook profile? My guess is yes. Or if you don't, you can create a
Facebook profile for free. That's your website, okay? Very easy. Also you know,
I've heard of some people just putting in random websites that have a lot of
visitors in their niche and I guess Amazon doesn't check but keep in mind, your
YouTube channel, you can set up a YouTube channel for free.

Your Facebook profile is free and you can set these things up
and use them as your website. Okay, very easy. Now, Amazon, you don't make a
lot of money. For purposes of demonstration, I could you know, say I'm selling
this book "Anathem" which is about $20 book. If you earn 10% of that what are
you making? Two bucks. You're not gonna become a millionaire, selling,
recommending books to people unless you're making more than 10%.
So the affiliate network that I really like is called ClickBank and you can see
ClickBank right here. There's a lot of affiliate networks but ClickBank is the most
trustworthy and the oldest affiliate network around.

It's been around for 21 years, it's based in Boise, Idaho and this is the network
that I made my first commissions on, many people have made their first
commissions on and it's also been the affiliate network that I currently make
most of my money with. Now, if we click here, Affiliate Market place, right there,
we'll see all of the products that you can sell on a commission-only basis.

So let's click this search icon, right here and see how many products we can find.
Okay, now you'll see there's over 4,500 products in the Marketplace. So this gives
you a lot of options of what do you wanna sell. Okay, what do you wanna sell to
make a lot of money with? Okay and you'll see they tell you how much money
you'll make if somebody buys what you're selling as an affiliate.

You see, $37 if you sell this. $56 if you sell this. $41 if you sell this. There's a lot
of money to be made selling these different products. Now, to find something
you resonate with, you kind of wanna choose, what I recommend, I personally
sell business-opportunity-type products but what I recommend you do is, let's
just get started on Amazon, okay? As I said the way you make big money is with
another affiliate network outside of Amazon.

So back to Amazon. Now, I'm gonna go to amazon.com and once again, let's say
I wanna start off with advertising this book, "Anathem" which is a book I'm
reading right now, it's a really good book and we're gonna search this on Amazon
and look it up. So we'll see, okay, well, it's $9.

So I'm gonna click on the book and what you'll see is when you're in, accepted for
an affiliate network, you see this little bar?

It says, Amazon Associates SiteStripe, right here. This is where I'll get my
affiliate link. So what I'll do is I'll click Get Link Text. Right there. And you'll see it
says, Text Link created below. Now, this is my affiliate link which I will use to sell
this book.

This is the link people need to click on this link and buy the book and I make
money. Okay, does that make sense? People click on this link, they buy the book
and I make money.

So we can look at the full link here. I'm not gonna go into what the full link is but
this carries, basically the link carries information that tells, the way affiliate
marketing works is the link contains information that tells Amazon
that's the person clicked on my link versus they searched for it online or what
not. And that link is in right here, the tag. So that this stuff tells them but we're
just gonna grab the short link, copy it. Now, I have my link.
I joined an affiliate network, I selected a product and we're going to move on to
posting about how we can actually, you know, get in some people to come to my
website.

So now there are a few ways to get people to come to your link. Okay, you will
already have access to them now, do you communicate with anybody digitally?
My guess is yes, you do. You probably use text messages. That's a way you can
get your link out to people. You use email, that's a way you can get your link out
to people. You use Instagram, that's a way you can get your link out to people.

Do you ever post comments on YouTube? That's a way you can get your link out
to people. Facebook, that's a way you can get your link out to people. All of these
methods are ways you can get your link out to people. Now, most of the time
you're probably having very like, just you know, you're talking about random,
social male, female, social dynamics in your life.

That's cool but we're talking about making money here so that's what we'll need
to be talking to people about in our emails. Now, let's say I'm recommending this
book. The first place I could start is through email. I want people to click on my
link. I could send an email to a couple of my close friends, let's say, you know, or
just people I know.

I could send one to my friend Carlos, I'm not actually gonna type in my friends'
emails here just so you don't email all my friends but I could type in my friends
and I could write something like, book recommendation. And I could say, you
know, I remember you asked me for a sci-fi book recommendation and I'm
reading a really good one right now. I absolutely love it. Check it out. And I put
my link there, see? There's my link. So I wrote a little short personal email in the
way I normally communicate and then I just put my initials. So that's a way to
get your link out to people.

You could send an email to people that, whose emails you have and in this case
I'm sending an email to Carlos who I know is interested in science fiction books
That would be a good way to start affiliate marketing.

Another way to start affiliate marketing is I could go on my Facebook and I have,


a lot of the people I'm friends with on Facebook are, you know, like the future and
science fiction and all this stuff. I'm not going on my Facebook page. I'm going
on my personal Facebook because I wanna communicate with people personally.

Do you buy things from ads? Probably not. Do you ever buy things or see movies
or listen to music based on other friends of yours personal recommendations?
My guess is yeah. Again, if we want people to buy from our link, it needs to be
somewhat of a personal recommendation. That's why I'm posting on my
personal profile.

Now, if you don't wanna sell anything, that's cool, okay? But again, the other
methods of getting your link out there are expensive, they cost money.
So we're doing this for free. Now if you are interested in going deeper into
affiliate marketing and paid advertising and the art of copywriting, I suggest, I'm
gonna have my assistant put up a link to my playlist called The Art of
Copywriting here which will go over how you can use paid advertising to actually
make money with marketing.

So here we go, create a post. I'll just say, really good sci-fi book I'm reading.
Mindgasms every day so far. Check it out. Neal Stephenson is a genius. Now, I'm
not spelling correctly because I'm doing personal communication. That's what
sells. Again, if you look, if you're writing something that looks like an ad, nobody
is gonna buy, ever. Ever. Nobody wants to buy from ads. Nobody wants to get
grabed and that's what buying from an ad feels like, it feels like your wallet is
being grabed.

You wanna have, you wanna feel like you're in love and a personal
recommendation feels like you're in love. So here it is, here's my post. Very
simple post.

So then, I just share it and that's how it works. Okay? Then, I'll just post it right
here. Now, that is how to start affiliate marketing in a nutshell.
