What is Affiliate Network Marketing?

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Affiliate Network Marketing is the internet version of giving someone a finder’s fee for generating a customer.

In affiliate network marketing, as well as, the offline line version of giving some a finder’s fee, there are 2 ways in which you can get paid.

1) You can earn a percentage of the sale when the customer you referred to a business purchases a product or a service.

2) You can get a flat fee when giving the business a lead.

However, in “affiliate network marketing” you can also get paid in a third way- i.e.  pay-per-click.

Let me give you an example of each.

Let’s say you are promoting my affiliate product “Put Your MLM Biz Online”. When, someone you refer buys the product, you get almost 30% of the purchase price.

Another way you can make money in a network marketing affiliate program is when you refer someone to a business, and as that business gets their contact information (aka a lead), you could collect a fee.

A final way you can make money in an affiliate network marketing is pay-per-click.

The most famous is Google Adsense.

Google Adsense is when you allow Google to place ads on your website. When those ads get clicked on, you are then paid a fee.

The most popular and probably the most lucrative version in affiliate network marketing is the commission one.

If you sell high end products with high end price tags that match, you could end up earning hundreds of dollars for each sale.

In order to incorporate a network marketing affiliate program into your MLM sales funnel, you must consider products that are complimentary to your MLM.

For example, if you are marketing to business builders, my product “Put Your MLM Biz Online” would fill a need of some business builders who do not know how to generate traffic, leads and sales online.

Here’s another example:

Say you are marketing to potential customers who are interested in your MLM product:

For example- you are marketing a skin care cream to reduce wrinkles.

You could find an e-book on ClickBank.com (or other affiliate program marketplaces, like PayDotCom.com) that discusses how to care for your skin- so that you reduce the chance of getting wrinkles in the first place.

You’d put this inside your sales funnel, so that when your prospect enters the funnel, they’re exposed to this e book.

You want to make sure that when you add affiliate network marketing to your sales funnel,  that you start with a relatively inexpensive product.

It is always easier to sell an inexpensive product than a more expensive one.

When you have gained your customer’s trust and given them a lot of value, then you can suggest a more expensive product or service.  (Like buying your actual MLM products or joining your MLM company).

PYMBO shows you exactly how to integrate affiliate Network Marketing with your MLM sales funnel, so you can build a list and earn upfront income before anyone even joins your MLM company!

In this blog post we discussed what affiliate network marketing is and I gave you some examples of how you could add a network marketing affiliate program to your funnel.

Network Marketing Affiliate Program: Adding Affiliate Products to Your MLM Sales Funnel Part Two: MLM Products

In our last post in this series, Network Marketing Affiliate Program: Adding Affiliate Products to Your MLM Sales Funnel Part One” we explained why you want to add network marketing affiliate program products to your sales funnel when concentrating on MLM business builders.

In this article, we will discuss adding “network marketing affiliate products” to your MLM sales funnel when focusing on selling your MLM product.

Remember, you don’t want to promote all of your products. Just pick one product and one problem it solves.

For example: you sell a skin cream and it does everything from getting rid of dry skin to erasing wrinkles. Pick one problem and concentrate on informing your target market about that one condition.

So you may have gathered your lead’s email and name by offering a free interview with a skin specialist on wrinkles. They opted in to their list and your thank them on your thank you page.

Why not suggest an inexpensive ebook for your lead to read about wrinkles on your thank you page.

Now you are probably wondering where to find such a product. One affiliate marketplace you can search is Clinkbank.com. They are not hard to get accepted as a product seller (an affiliate) and they have 1000’s of products to choose from.

You can also Google “wrinkle + affiliate products” or “wrinkle + ebook” or some other combination to find a product to promote.

Products are everywhere and they are not hard to find.

Do you want to learn more about how to add complimentary products to your thank you pages, as well as learn how to create other parts of a successful MLM sales funnel?

What is Affiliate Network Marketing?

Network Marketing Affiliate Program: Adding Affiliate Products to Your MLM Sales Funnel Part One: Business Builder Leads

Network Marketing Affiliate Program Hmmm, What’s that? That’s where you add affiliate products to your MLM  Sales Funnel.

Why would you want to add a Network Marketing Affiliate Program to your MLM Sales Funnel?

Because, quite simply, not every lead you generate will want to join your MLM. But you still want to generate some income off of them!

“Adding a Network Marketing Affiliate Program” will let you earn some cash while you are prospecting for new distributors.

Some of the leads you gather may already be in a MLM and are quite happy to be with that company. So are you just going to wait until they decide to change companies or promote an additonal MLM?

No. (Well, you could but I wouldn’t if I were you.)

Here’s how you add a network marketing affiliate program to the mix:

1.    Create a lead capture (squeeze) page, to gather leads. (What’s that? Read “Squeeze Pages: Vital Component of MLM Marketing Systems”)   You can send your MLM email leads to a thank you page.

1.    Create a  Thank You Page. A thank you page is created like a squeeze page. Most marketers who make a thank you page, just do that. Let it say thank you.

Of course you want to be polite and thank your lead, but….Do you realize that a thank you page is a valuable piece of internet real estate?

You could thank your lead, but (here’s the secret)- you can also suggest they check out a complementary product- right there on the thank you page.

For example if you are focusing on finding MLM business builders, you could suggest they purchase “Magnetic Sponsoring” by Mike Dillard.

If it was me, I’d suggest they sign up for the “7-Day Video Bootcamp”. This way they enter the “Magnetic Sponsoring” funnel as well, but they recieve some valuable information on attraction marketing using an MLM.

You gave your lead something valuable and they may very well end up buying the e-book.

One important thing to remember when choosing a product to promote on your thank you page is to pick a complementary product that has a low starting price.

People are more likely to buy a less expensive product from you the first time.

So let me ask you. Why would you want to add a Network Marketing Affiliate Program to your MLM sales funnel?

1) Most leads will not be joining you as a distributor in your company.

2) You have a valuable piece of real estate on your thank you page that you can put to good use.

3) You suggest a product (or even better the affiliate product’s bribe such as “Magnetic Sponsoring’s 7 Day Video Bootcamp”.

4) Your lead may buy that product and, therefore, make you some money.

5) If you chose your network marketing affiliate program product well, your lead will remember you as the person who recommended it to them.

So are you ready to add affiliate products to your MLM sales funnel?

Go here to see how to do it.

Let us know what you think in the comment section below. Do you already use your thank you page in this way? Tell us.

Email Internet Marketing Strategy: Adding Custom PayPal Buttons to Your Emails

Here’s a cool email internet marketing strategy.

BUT be careful with this email internet marketing strategy. If you have not developed a relationship with your lead, they will probably quickly unsubscribe from your list.

Keeping in mind to use this “email internet marketing strategy” with caution, here it is.

Add a PayPal button to your emails you send to your MLM email lead.

• First, Login to your business PayPal account. If you don’t have one, get one.

• Then, click on the “merchant services” tab.

• Next, click on the “buy now” tab. You can choose “subscriptions” if you want people to pay you monthly.

• Fill in the “item name” box and, then (optional) fill in the “item id” box.

• Enter your price in the “price box”.

• Fill out all other information pertinent to your particular situation (s&h and tax).

• If you are adding custom PayPal buttons, go to the “Customize” box and choose which action you would like to take.

• You can add drop-down menus or even customize the appearance of the button.

• Then, click on Part 3 Customization.

There you will choose whether or not you need the address, and what url you want your customer to be automatically sent to after payment.

• You can send them to a url after they have cancelled payment as well.

• Next, copy the PayPal button code (control+c for PCs and command+c for Macs).

• Paste (control+v for PCs and command +v for Macs) onto the html page or source page of your thank you page in Kompozer.

Email Internet Marketing Strategy: How to Redirect a Web Page and Why

Here’s another cool email internet marketing strategy.

First, this post won’t make a lot of sense unless you read the first part of this two part series: Email Internet Marketing Strategy: Adding Custom PayPal Buttons to Your Emails

Did you read it? Good.

Now, I’ll teach you a new “email internet marketing strategy”: How to redirect a web page.

I can see you asking yourself, “Why would I want to redirect a web page?” and “How is this an email internet marketing strategy?”

Let me give you an example of how redirecting a web page is an “email internet marketing strategy”.

Suppose you’ve decided to offer your coaching services and you already have a list you’ve built a relationship with.

You can offer your coaching services in an email.

However, that ugly email link you created in your PayPal account (Don’t know what I’m talking about? You didn’t read this post on Email Internet Marketing Strategy: Adding Custom PayPal Buttons to Your Emails did you?) is just that…ugly.

It is also not very professional looking.

So in order to make it look professional we are going to make a redirect link using your current hosting service.

Go to your HostGator cpanel (This is my hosting service. Since it’s the one I know how to use, it’s the one I’m going to teach you).

Scroll down until you come to the Domain section. When you get there, click on the redirect icon.
First choose temporary. Then choose the domain. Grab your ugly domain and place it in the redirect to box.

Write a name in the box next to your domain. Call it the product or service you are promoting.

For example. www.southafricanrenegade.com/coaching.html. Then, click on ADD.
Now, make sure the new link you created works and goes to your PayPal button.

To do this. Go to your Autoresponder and choose a autoresponder list you want to promote this product or service to.

(If you use iContact and don’t know how to make an autoresponder, check out this post, How to use iContact Autoresponder.)

Add a new email to your selected autoresponder series. Making sure that you have created a relationship, wait at least 15 days before you send out a monetization email.

An example of an email might be:

Highlight the URL and click on the picture of the world with a link of chain. Then a window will pop up.

In the address box put your domain you highlighted earlier. This will make it live.

Then, copy the link and paste it in the your browser box. Your PayPal page from which your customer will buy from should open up.

In summary, 1) we generated the code in PayPal.

2)We grabbed the email link.

1) We went into our hostgator account.

1) We made a redirect to our PayPal Link. So that we can put the more professional looking link in the email.

1) We put the new link in our email.

You now have a more professional looking link and the good part is that these types of links have much higher conversion rates than those ugly ones.

You can use this same technique (redirecting a web page) for any of your ugly affiliate links, too.

Email Tracking System: How to use iContact’s Email Tracking System

iContact’s email tracking system is the topic for today’s post.

You’ve set up your autoresponder email messages and now know what’s the difference between broadcast and follow up messages are.

Now, it’s important to learn how to track your emails.

That way you can see how your leads are responding- are they opening your mails? Are they taking the action you want them to- like click on a link?

(if not, you need to change your subject line and improve your copywriting!)

Read this article on effective email campaigns to learn more about how to do this.

I use iContact so that is the “email tracking system” that I will teach you about.

Step One – Login in to iContact.

Step Two – Click on the tab that says, “Track”. This is iContact’s email tracking system

Step Three – Choose what you would like to track. For example, if you want to track last message then click that button. Choose full or brief report.

Look at the “Message Statistics” box. There you can see how many opens, click throughs, bounces, unsubscribes, forwards, complaints (Yikes, I hope you don’t get any of those!!), and so forth.

Further down the page, you see a graph with open, bounces and neither. This graph is a pictorial representation of the “Message Statistics” box.

To track your autoresponders, click “View Autoresponder Results”. Then click on the autoresponder you want to track.

There you will see which of your mlm email leads have opened messages, if the messages bounced, and so on.

You can also track your broadcast messages.

This is done be clicking on “View Sent Messages”. Click on the pie chart icon of the message you want to view.

You will then see bounces, opens, and so forth.

Just so you a know, a good rate of opens is about 20% to 30%.

Well, that’s how easy it is to use iContact’s email tracking system.

Here’s more on using the I Contact Sotware program.

If your autoresponder is not iContact, it should also have an email tracking system.

They should also have tutorials for you on how to use it.

Which autoresponder has the best email tracking system in your opinion? Share with us in the comments section below.

Email System Autoresponder Software: A Comparison of AWeber and iContact

In this post I will review email system autoresponder software.

You’ve learned that you need an MLM mailing list and an “email system autoresponder”. Now, you’ve got to choose a specific email autoresponder.
There are three features I’m going to compare.

•    Cost

•    Deliverability

•    Ease of Use
Cost Comparison of Email System Autoresponder Software (as of the writing of this post)

Aweber•    AWeber – $1 for the first month;

$19 per month for 0-500 subscribers,

$29 per month for 501-2500 subscribers;

$49 per month for 2501-5000 subscribers; and up.

•    iContact – Free trial for the first 15 days;

save 10% if you pay for the entire year, otherwise;

$9.95 per month for 250 contacts;

$14 per month for 500;

$19 for 1000; $29 for 2500; $47 for 5000; and up.

Conclusion: So it seems that looking at cost alone,  perhaps your best bet is i Contact.

Also,  iContact gives you the option of having only up to 250 contacts and spending less money until you need the extra contact plan.

Comparison of Deliverability of Email System Autoresponder Software

AweberAWeber - This email autoresponder doesn’t list deliverability rates, but this is what AWeber says on its website

At AWeber, we pride ourselves on getting your requested email delivered by:

•    Enforcing a zero tolerance anti-spam policy.

•    Authenticating all email campaigns using SPF and Domain Keys.

•    Establishing and nurturing relationships with major ISPs.

•    Automatically processing unsubscribes and undeliverable addresses.

•    Proactively seeking out and resolving potential delivery issues.

•    Providing content filter-checking tools to all users.

iContact states on its website that it has a 98-99% deliverability rate.

Conclusion: So in terms of deliverability, it’s hard to say-

but it would seem they are both pretty much in the same category (i.e. good!)

What about the Ease of Use of each Email System Autoresponder Software?

Aweber•    AWeber – This system has a series of tutorials, articles, and a live getting started video website.

If you are the type of person, who tries to put something together without reading the instructions, you’ll need to use their tutorials.

I used to use Aweber, but I didn’t find it intuitive to use. I needed detailed instructions to use it.

•    If you want to use both plain text and html, then you have to copy and paste your message into AWeber twice.

Once for html and once for plain text.

•    AWeber does let you know if your messages are spammy,but I haven’t figured out how to tell what they consider the problem to be.

•    In adding to its autoresponders, you have a setting that asks you to enter  how many days from the last message.

E.g enter “3 days” after last email. (In iContact, you have to enter how many days from original opt in, each time you add a new email to the autoresponder.

This can lead to mistakes as you have to check each time what the previous email’s “delivery day” was, and then add the additional days onto that.

E.g last email was sent out on day 17, next email sent out on day 20 etc.)

•    iContact – This email autoresponder has a very clean cut layout. On it’s home page after you log in it has a section called iContact Assist.

There they lead you in detail through the various features.

•    Another thing I really like about iContact is how easy it is to convert you html text to plain text. All you have to do is click the button “Copy Text”.

•    iContact also has a check spam feature. When you check it, it tells you want the problems with your message are.

•     iContact also allows you to import your previous mlm email lead list without making your subscriber re opt in.

This is especially helpful if you collect leads through an affiliate system such as Magnetic Sponsoring.

•    When you add to an iContact autoresponder, you choose how many days the new message is sent after your mlm email lead has opted in.

Conclusion: To me iContact appears to be easier to use. It seems more intuitive.

It helps you make sure your messages aren’t too spammy.

In iContact it is easy to have both html and plain text messages without a lot of extra work.

Which email system autoresponder software do I use?

I use iContact. It has all the features that I want and did not confuse me with the advanced stuff it can do, but wasn’t yet ready for, when I started.

It is user friendly, has an excellent deliverability rate, does not require a double opt-in, and it is used by none other than Mike Dillard and his company Magnetic Sponsoring.

I have to add though, that AWeber has MUCH more flexibility in terms of opt in forms (you can design your own submit buttons, customize the forms more and track opt ins better, as well as split test different variations of the forms from within AWeber.

AWeber  also allows pop ups, (forms that pop up on a website while you are reading, to entice you to opt in) and other features like this- that can raise your opt in rate considerably.

They also have a cool feature that allows you to hook your blog up to your autoresponder list and send out a “weekly digest” of your previous week’s blog entries- sort of in a newsletter format.

Your readers are automatically kept updated, yet they are not bombarded every time you add a post, because you can set it to a weekly interval.

Even though I started with I contact and it was so EASY to learn, I now regret that decision and would recommend everyone to get going with AWeber right from the start.

(Aweber also integrates with Wordpress Wishlist Member Plugin- a cool tool if you’re needing software to manage your membership site. I- contact does not (at the time of this post).

What’s the Difference Between Broadcast and Follow Up Emails?

How to use iContact Autoresponder

Our full length training course takes you through all aspects of Email marketing

(as well as much much more about setting up your complete system online)

What’s the Difference Between Broadcast and Follow Up Emails?

What’s the difference between broadcast and follow up emails?

First lets take a look at what a broadcast and a follow up email are.

Follow Up Emails are a series of emails you place in your email autoresponder.

If you offer a free-ebook, then your opt ins can get onto your opt in list by receiving the free ebook and giving you their contact details in return.

Other ideas for giving away free advice (in order to get opt ins)- are video courses, newsletters, and ezines.

So if someone opts in to your list, they will get the first FOLLOW UP email, then the second, and so on.

These follow up emails are “evergreen”- meaning that no matter when the lead opts in, the follow up emails they receive are relevant.

If, for example, an MLM email lead opts in to your list in September, and you created the email follow up campaign in July, the lead who opted in in September will still get the first email that you created in July.

Of course, the emails go out in the order that you set them.

You should set the first email to go out the same day as when your MLM email lead opts in.

You will probably want to send them an email for each day for 3 to 5 days and then pace them between 3 and 4 days apart.

Conceivably, MLM opt in leads can receive emails you wrote two years ago and put into your autoresponder.

Of course, you will want to freshen up your autoresponder series from time to time.

You want to make sure you have something unique and useful in your emails.

Don’t just sell, sell, sell…. That’s a good way to get MLM email leads to unsubscribe from your list.

Broadcast Emails are emails you send to your list once.

For these types of emails, your MLM email lead is already on your list, and you’ve probably already established a relationship.

This is similar to how you use your personal email. You have something to say, you write your email, and you press send. (It is usually time sensitive.)

ONLY the people on your list – at the time of sending the email, will receive it.

A “broadcast email” can be a news alert. For example: the skin care company that you are distributor for is having a one day sale.

You don’t put this type of email in your email autoresponder because it may not be true when your list gets it.

Other times you would use broadcast emails are when you are inviting people to a webinar or teleseminar.

Personal special events are also appropriate for broadcast emails. For example, you may get married. That’s something you can share so that your list can get to know you better.

Let’s Summarize - Follow up emails are series of emails you program into your autoresponder to be used over and over again.

You’ll want these to be “evergreen”. In other words, do not refer to specific days, dates, holidays, etc.

Broadcast emails are emails that are sent one time and can refer to specific days, dates, holidays, and special occasions.

Now you know the difference between broadcast and follow up emails.
