Affiliate Marketing With Joint Ventures

Secrets To Overnight Profits With Affiliate Marketing, Part 1 

Jimmy Brown was a nobody until he did his first joint venture and literally became a 'marketing guru' overnight.

Terry Dean made $30,000 in 4 days mailing an offer to his list.

These are just two of many incredible stories of making a lot of money...virtually overnight. How exactly did they do this?

They used what is called, "the most powerful profit-generating tool available online" JOINT VENTURES!

Many people ask, "Do you need your own product or can you do a joint venture with an affiliate program?"

The answer is yes and no....it depends on how you package the affiliate program. You can't expect jv partners to become an affiliate of an affiliate. In other words, if you become an affiliate of a cell  phone manufacturer you can't send out a joint venture expecting them to become your affiliate, even if they offer a 2 tier plan. 

So what to do?

Here is what I suggest. Develop a website targeted to cell phone users with links on the home page to 4-5 affiliates. Write or have written 40-50 high quality articles relating to cell phones and find related websites that have articles. Email them offering free articles if they leave the bio intact. Do this for only 10 websites that publish 3 articles each and you will have 30 backward links which will boost your page rank with Google and others. 

Now you have a joint venture of a kind that will produce highly targeted traffic for your website.

If you have your own product or serviced you can work another type of JV: 

Here are the basic steps,

Step 1 ---> Set The Right Goal Step 

Step 2 ---> Develop A Contact List Step 

Step 3 ---> Create An Irresistible Offer Step 

Step 4 ---> Approach Your Potential partner Step 

Step 5 ---> Work the backend Step 

Step 6 ---> Repeat the process

What can you expect from a well-done JV?

A few of the benefits are:

- Free advertising 

- Fast setup 

- Fantastic results 

- Future profits

JV's should be THE priority of any online marketing campaign because you don't need:

* A large mailing list 

* High-traffic website 

* Be a well-known expert 

* A large advertising budget

All you need is right offer!

And you want the results of the JV to go on and on. Profits coming for months after the initial offer.

How do you do that with affiliate marketing?

By:

1. Building an opt-in list.

Repeat after me 10 times, the "fortune is in the list". A quality list allows you to build relationships, to build name recognition and to build a brand. A quality list allows you to develop multiple streams of income.

2. Securing lifetime customers

You want loyal customers who continue to do business with you month after month. One of the biggest problems with many jv's is that they focus on a one-time profit. They don't see the BIG picture...repeat, consistent profits for months and years later. The initial JV is only the beginning...its a down payment of what's to come. So develop loyalty with your customers by treating them as you would like to be treated (the golden rule).

3. Recruiting new affiliates and partners.

The affiliate program is THE absolute best way to see significant growth in your sales, hands down. Nothing else comes close.

Your only one person, who can only do so much. That's why you need to recruit others to duplicate your efforts. It works with a 2 tiered or a multi-tiered program. I like multi-tiered (mlm) net programs as well, because they pay me for those I recruit, my 2nd level recruits, my 3rd level... Why promote only a 2-tiered affiliate program when you can make much more with many levels?

Don't have an affiliate program? Get one. The Free Advertising System is one of the most informative manuals ever created on building and using an affiliate program. http://www.freeadvertisingsystem.com/books4u.html

Each of these goals is infinitely more important (and more profitable) than earning some quick initial income.

By using three simple keys, you can unlock the joint venture success doors and earns profits for months and years to come from ONE project!

These three keys are:

1. Capture emails

You need some kind of system in place to capture emails. Make sure these emails are with their permission! Mucho trouble if you try to shortcut the email capturing system.

There are 3 easy ways to capture emails:

1. Free Ezine Subscription

Goes without saying that having your own ezine is critical to your net profitability. If you need help on developing a good, quality newsletter I recommend "The Ezine Resource Guide". It has over 218 free and low-cost resources. Everything from links to free articles, ezine databases to acquire more subscribers, and co-registration companies that will provide subscribers for a reasonable price. Another is "Ezine Profit Producer". Generate Free Publicity, Free Promotion, Free Prospects And Free Profits Anytime You Want!

Free ecourse. A free "eCourse" is a series of reports/lessons/ articles on a particular subject, delivered one per day to those who request it.

I love to create and offer these "eCourses" because once I write/ borrow (with permission), and set it up in an autoresponder...and voila! it's all automatic. The only thing I need to do is get the word out its available and is free. People online do love that word! And we know from marketing research that it takes up to 7 contacts before someone makes a purchase. For more information on creating a series of reports, check out "Profit Pulling Reports".

2. Think viral

You want your joint venture to spread much farther than the project itself. Create some kind of tool that will allow your marketing to grow and continue to spread on its own, without your personal interaction with any of the end users.

Ebooks have been the easiest viral marketing tool. The problem with ebooks is the market has become saturated with them. Folks aren't going to pass them around unless your ebook is special.

Download a free ebook with branding and give away with your own web site and url.

3. Work the backend

This is any offer beyond the initial offer. There are five places you can place a backend offer:

- Exit Pop Up Windows 

- Thank You Pages 

- Welcome Email 

- Freebie 

- Future Follow-Up
