Hi Visitor, When I got online looking for ways to supplement my income back in 1999 I didn't have my own product(s) to sell. Even if I would have had my own products, I didn't have the knowledge required to know how to sell them online. So the FIRST thing I did after reading Robert Allen's Multiple Streams of Income book was get on his conference calls to learn about OTHER ways to make money online since I didn't have my own products. That's when I first discovered affiliate programs. I learned that there are a bunch of companies on the Internet that will allow you to fill out a short application and INSTANTLY become their affiliate. These companies provide the products for you to sell, give you websites and marketing tools to sell them with, follow-up with any prospects you send their way, close the sale, ship the products, handle customer service and complaints, and do virtually all the stuff you would have to do if you were selling your own products. Then whenever someone you send to that company buys something, you get paid a commission for it. It's a win-win situation. The company is looking for more people to promote So being an affiliate is really a mindset thing. Would you rather run a company that is responsible for providing the product or service, starting relationships with prospects, following up relentlessly to close the sale, shipping the product, handling returns, dealing with all the customer service issues including people who are only want to give you a hard time... Hey, a lot of people love doing those things and that's great. We need those kind of people and Or would you rather simply focus on bringing prospects to the table and letting the company do all the "dirty" work for you? This is the choice of an affiliate. The amazing thing about affiliate marketing is that you can often earn a lions share of the profit. Yes, many companies are willing to pay you more than they earn themselves for making a sale. For example, there is one affiliate program I do very well with called Empowerism. You can take a look at their website here: Through my online traffic generating strategies I send hundreds of people to that website every day and a bunch of them sign up for an Empowerism membership because they see that Empowerism offers a great service for a good price. Empowerism charges $24.95 to become a member and do you know what I get paid when I refer a new member? $20.00. That's an Are you kidding me??? Empowerism does all the hard work of providing an great product and all that goes along with that including accepting all kinds of payment, handling all the customer support issues, etc. and they pay ME as the affiliate the lion's share of the profits! That's why affiliate marketing (when done intelligently) is the BEST way to make money online. Sure, most programs on the Internet don't pay anywhere what Empowerism pays (80%), but there are are some that do. In fact, that's what the whole Plug-In Profit Site system is about - connecting you to a handful of proven affiliate programs that pay out MIGHTY commissions. In fact, read this page carefully: And that's a BIG secret right there. There are THOUSANDS of affiliate programs on the Internet. But the fact is you could put the exact same energy into one program as you do another and earn 100 times more. You MUST choose the RIGHT programs if you are going to succeed in affiliate marketing. I've seen so many people fail in this business simply because they joined the WRONG program(s). They put their heart and soul into promoting it, but it never produced big profits for them. These people leave the Internet thinking that affiliate marketing is a scam, but the truth is oftenthat they just joined the wrong programs. If they would have put the same energy into another affiliate program (one that actually converts prospects into customer and pays the lion's share of the profits), they would have succeeded. So think about that as you continue your journey of learning about affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing can be the easiest and the best way to make money online because you can get started INSTANTLY (even if you have no products of your own or prior experience) and the company handles all the "dirty" work for you. But affiliate marketing can really only be the easiest and best way to make money online IF you choose the RIGHT programs to promote. I've been doing this since 1999 and have tested out hundreds of the most popular affiliate programs in that time. Whenever you do something long enough, the cream always rises to the top. Out of the hundreds of programs I've tried, there are only 6 that consistently produce the most profits for the least amount of effort for me. Those are the 6 affiliate programs that are part of the Plug-In Profit Site system described here: If you want to avoid joining the WRONG programs and get on the fast-track to affiliate marketing success, I encourage you to check out the Plug-In Profit Site. The Plug-In Profit Site gives you many of the same advantages that have taken me since 1999 to gain - in 24 hours or less. That's a serious shortcut to success. Tomorrow I'll send you a report I've been working on called: Make the rest of your day GREAT Visitor! Best regards, P.O. Box 983, Liverpool Row
