Affiliate Marketing Tips - How to Become an Affiliate Assassin

Want to know how to become an affiliate assassin? Want to be able to sell affiliate products with relative ease and precision? Tired of having to compete with every Tom, Dick and Sally who's promoting the same tired products and can't get out of their own way? Want to really rake in the cash and...
Okay, stop! Before I make myself sick, just stop!
I'm sure the above intro was about the make you ready to lose your lunch. I can't say I blame you. I mean after all, isn't this the same old tired pitch you see on every sales page? Every product promising to make you an instant millionaire. I wish it were that easy. Well, it's not...but...you can make a nice living as an affiliate marketer if you have some solid smarts behind you. I'm going to leave you with a few tips that WILL make affiliate marketing easier for you and maybe even turn you into an affiliate assassin.
First tip is to hit the Clickbank marketplace and look for some solid products that don't have a gravity that makes you want to hit the ceiling. Trying to compete with 300 other people selling the same product is just plain suicide. The chances of you getting a decent share of that pie are slim to none. Instead, look for something that has a gravity of around 30 or 40. This shows that the product does sell and is probably quite solid. You'll have a much easier time in the process.
Next, you want to do some serious promotion. If you want to be visible, you have to be visible. The first thing I recommend is to set up a blog and do a review of the product you want to promote. Yes, that means you're going to have to get a copy for yourself. If you write to the merchant, maybe he'll send you a copy to review. Either way, get one. Review it honestly and then at the end, put a link to the product itself.
Then you want to start writing articles...lots of them. Submit them to article directories. In the article resource box, have a link to your blog, NOT the product itself. This way, the people reading your articles can then read your review on the product. This way they'll be more inclined to buy it...especially if the review is honest.
Finally, make some videos and submit them to video directories. You can make them reviews of the product as well and then send people to the product page or your blog to read more reviews.
The above game plan, if executed properly, will have you more than on your way to becoming an affiliate assassin...and all that other stuff.
To YOUR Success,
