The Essence Of Affiliate Management

If you have a product that you want to sell, whether it's an e-book, audio or video, it's usually a very wise idea to create an affiliate program around it.



If you have an affiliate program for your product, you will get a ton of traffic that you would not normally have received.

Pleasure & Pain, Ego & Fear

1) Pleasure or Ego: They want to move toward something. This is known as "chance of gain" positioning. Your product or service helps people further their pleasure, realize a passion, or take some action that makes them happy, e.g. a new car, a pair of skis, a book about being successful.



2) Pain or Fear: They want to move away from something. This is known as "fear of loss"…

Major Traffic Source Of The Future (Actually Now): Blogs

If you view web pages as the original publishing platform since the Big Bang of the World Wide Web, surely this variant platform called 'blog' and its increasing popularity heralds another mode of information publishing and communication. Maybe 10 years down the road another new platform is born ('wiki' is the latest). For now, 'blog' is in the spotlight.



The blog shares some similarities with the web page as well as being the anti-thesis to the newsletter. It has its own URL so it…

Individual Thinking vs. Group Thinking

There must be POWER in collective decision-making. We guess it is safer to say group thinking is more reliable than individual thinking. Throughout human history there is a secret consensus within shared cultures that uphold great societies, countries and civilizations and they had their 15 minutes of fame.



The fine line in teamwork is: do you tend to create differences with others or make the difference for others? Creating differences requires you assert ego. Making the difference…

How To Upsell

Upselling is the art of selling the next consecutive product immediately after your customers have bought the first one. This helps you ride on his/her purchasing momentum.



The normal advice is that upselling occurs on the Thank You/product download page. Actually, if you can make a sharp distinction between the various Thank You pages you may already have on your site, you can advertise more products than you may think.



Here are some 'labels':



1) Newsletter Thank…
