Of course, if you've already read our Internet Marketing Course you already know how you can 'sky rocket' your sales (and your link popularity) by operating an affiliate programme.
What Is An Affiliate Programme?
Just in case you didn't know, an affiliate programme is where owners of web sites (your affiliates) send visitors to your site and when they make a purchase you pay your affiliate a commission.
Because you only pay on results, affiliate programmes/schemes are one of the most cost effective advertising methods available. Thousands of online retailers run hugely successful affiliate schemes from one man businesses up to the likes of Amazon, ebay and even British Airways.
They are one of the top methods of exploding your sales, quickly and easily.
Why Do I Need To Run An Affiliate Programme?
The whole basis of this site and our Internet Marketing Course is to help your business to grow HUGE! We are talking hundreds of thousands in turnover per year as a minimum, and one of the core products that's going to help you achieve that is your own affiliate programme.
Once it's up and running you'll have an army of salespeople working 24hours a day selling YOUR products.
Better still, and take note of this because its REALLY IMPORTANT:
"Your link popularity will go through the roof!"
Think about it, every time you recruit a new affiliate, they'll place a link from their site to yours, and if you've already read our Internet Marketing Course you know how important link popularity is.
Okay So What Do I Need?
To run your own efficient affiliate programme you simply need a piece of software that will fully automate the whole process of looking after your affiliates. Remember our Internet Marketing Course, 'Automate', 'Automate', 'Automate'.
However, great care must be taken when selecting your software as there are literally thousands of types available on the market. If you choose the wrong software that won't grow with you as your business grows, you'll have a hard time upgrading later. Worse still, if you choose a basic system that lacks the necessary features you'll find it difficult tempting the serious affiliate to join you.
The good news is however, we've made it easy for you. Our software, AFFILIATE TRAIL has EVERYTHING YOU'LL EVER NEED...AND MORE.
AFFILIATE TRAIL is amongst the most comprehensive affiliate tracking software around, which means it will grow with you as your business grows and your turnover goes into orbit.
Just check out the long list of features on the right and you'll soon realise Affiliate Trail is the ONLY software that you will ever need.
Once installed (and for a limited period we're doing that for you absolutely FREE) our flexible software will allow you to attract, motivate, and
reward affiliates automatically. Your affiliates will be able to log in to their accounts and see stats in real time showing what traffic they've referred to you, and what sales they've made.
Affiliate Trail will provide your affiliates all the tools required to promote your products via emails, image banners, text links, Flash banners, even customized HTML banners.
It tracks the number of times a banner or link is displayed, the number of visitors who followed the link to your site and the purchases made. It then keeps track of commissions earned by affiliates and provides the reporting to enable you make various types of payout.
These features, complimented by a whole range of reports means Affiliate Trail allows you to remain fully aware of your affiliates' activities at the push of a button.
You may be thinking this software, which will ultimately enable your business to grow HUGE is going to cost thousands, but you'd be wrong.
