Network Marketing

The Misconception About Affiliate Marketing

This an article that is all about learning before you think of earning. I will talk about a very simple plan but not an easy plan -- hard work is the only thing that will take you where you wish to go -- do your work early and you will enjoy a ride that will take you beyond your wildest dreams

A Different Compensation Plan

Affiliate Plans

You Look CofusedFirst of all please allow me to say that you look good with the wind blowing your hair - maybe I shouldn't drive so fast? Enough of that - I am sure that you know this by now - there are many network marketing compensation plans. I feel that I have needed to share my information on several comp plans in order for you to make a decision that is good for you. All of the plans are different and this affiliate compensation plan is ery different from those that I previously outlined for you!

Overview of previous writings

5th lens about network marketing

This explanation will be the fifth I have written concerning compensation plans in network marketing.- I am sure you recall the previous articles; the binary programs, the unilevel programs, the breakaway programs and the 1UP/2UP programs - now I will tell you about the affiliate programs. I know it has been a long journey through winding roads but here we are at the affiliate program. - allow me to continue to drive as you carefully review all of the current and aforementioned programs - have you enjoyed our journey?

1 Big Difference Will Surprise You

Usually no payment for downline work

You and I On This Compensation Plan JourneeyNow I want you be patient as I go through this affilaite compensation plan - I know you may wonder why I am even telling you about it - please be patient!Your affiliate programs are different from every other program that I have written about. Please note the one big difference is that there is not usually any payment for the work that your downline has done. Although, in some rare cases, programs that are called two (2) level affiliate programs will pay you on your front line and nothing more. Hang on tight we are coming up on a sharp curve....

Time To Clear Up A Few Things

Enjoying the ride

You Being HappyOK the road has straightened out - after this review you will feel better! Here is what you want to do with your affiliate marketing program - you usually will make only a small amount of money on the first sale - but the trick is for you to look for sequences of products that the list you have built will buy. Are you beginnng to get this? For example let us say that you sold a book about growing roses - well that same persopn may also purchase a book on how to grow lilacs, etc. etc......

How do you earn

not pure profit

The great thing here is that if you simply add one more product(s) to say an 80 dollar a sale profit - for sure this is not pure profit for you as all of your traffic costs must be covered - however the first product you sold has a $10 profit - you assumed that by selling a 2nd product at the same price you have now doubled your profit- don't you? Wrong! You have taken your profits from a $10 per sale to $80 per sale and in my world that is an 800% increase and I believe that is significant. Enjoying the ride a little better?

When You Get Paid

125% is not illogical

Company Showing How The Earn MoneyWith affiliate programs you are paid as soon as you make a sale. Your payouts are usually anywhere from 50% up to 125% - now what I just said probably sounds illogical to you - you wonder why anyone would pay you up to 125% - no not worry about them - they usually have a proven sales system beyond the initial sale that will allow them to lay out more than the initial sale - if there is no initial sale they do not get the remainder of their money - thus I believe, if you think about it, it does actually make sense. Do you feel better? Now you ask where do these people who actually own the products being sold make their profit? Worry not; they usually make the majority of their money on a back-end sale to those same customers. And might I add further, those people do extremely well financially!

A Simple Concept

But it does require work

You Working From HomeI now feel confident that I have provided you with the information that will allow you to make a good decision - do you want to join an affiliate program or don't you? I have as always provided you with the good, the bad and the ugly of the compensation program. Like the 1UP and 2UP systems to achieve residual income - you need to reinvest your profits into income generating assets. So it takes some work and some knowledge but - what business or program does not require that? It is a simple concept but - as always - it requires some work from you. And as always you must live well to be well

NOTHING NEW CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED WITHOUT HARD WORK & KNOWLEDGE

Hard work will create success - good luck has very little to do with success - put the time in to learn and then go for it -remember I can help and will...........
