I. Affiliate marketing guides 
As affiliate marketers, we were all beginners at one time. This business model has matured over the past 
few years and offers many quick start benefits for people who don't want to wait around to make 
money. If you want to get off to an easy start this article will give you a few tips on affiliate marketing 
aimed at beginners. 
1. Use the training your merchant provides. Many affiliate merchants offer excellent training on how to 
sell their products. 
When you first start out you want to take advantage of as many of the free training avenues as you 
possibly can. This is easy to do online today thanks to video training, online webinars, articles, reports, 
and so on. 
2. Join a membership site that offers coaching or mentoring. Some affiliate marketers need personal 
attention. 
There are some excellent online training programs that you can join that offer personal coaching and 
mentoring. Many of these also offer private forums where you can interact with other affiliate 
marketers who help each other out. These are not that expensive and can be give you an excellent 
return on your investment. 
3. Invest in more in-depth training as your business grows. When you have more knowledge you begin 
to view things differently. 
There are some really good in-depth training courses that you can purchase for a thousand dollars or so. 
Most of these can be accessed online, but they also come in hardback copies that include CDs as well.

training. 
4. Make money offering programs that give pre-built affiliate sites and training. There are some really 
excellent programs out there that offer pre-built affiliate sites and then provide training on how to 
promote those. 
This is a targeted niche you can make a lot of money in if you want to. Promote the money making 
opportunities and use the training as a reason why a person would want to join with you. 
There is a never ending supply of prospects that come online every day looking for ways to make 
money. These types of programs address the new beginner's concerns and you can capitalize on those. 
In summary, these are a few hot tips on how to get off to an easy start if you are an affiliate marketer 
that is just beginning. The key is to use the training that is available to you in multiple ways. 
Then take your knowledge and turn that into an income stream by offering programs that give pre -built 
websites and training to their new members. 
II. Affiliate marketingstrategies 
Affiliate marketing is a low-cost 
way for merchants to build 
awareness and showcase their 
products and services. The model 
is simple; it works as a 
commission-based referral 
system. A partner or affiliate 
markets a merchant's products 
for a "piece of the pie." 
Affiliate marketing experts often make an income that can tally over five figures 
per month, however only 1 to 5% of thousands of marketers achieve this level. 
When an affiliate reaches this elite level they are often referred to as a "super" 
affiliate. 
Performance review phrases comments/ free download examples Page 2
How does one become a super affiliate? Can anyone do it? Super affiliates have 
common tactics that they embrace and put into place. Anyone can become a 
super affiliate, but it will not come without blood, sweat, and a hefty time 
commitment. The typical super affiliate possesses the following traits: 
 Persistence 
 Patience 
 Thirst for Knowledge 
These three traits combined with the following strategy gives you the formula for 
the makings of a "super" affiliate. 
1. Find a Unique Niche 
The mistake that many affiliate marketing hopefuls have in common is that they 
try to offer everything under the sun rather than focusing on a specific niche 
market. Do not scatter your efforts, focus on your niche, promote it, and sell it 
well. 
2. Search Engine Marketing 
Once you've built your affiliate storehouse you will need to promote it. Many 
affiliates use pay-per-click engines. I suggest that you learn how to achieve organic 
search results or hire a search engine marketing company. This will save you from 
spending all your profits on pay-per-click engines. Only use pay-per-click engines 
if you know what you are doing, otherwise all your profits may end in the hands of 
Google Adwords or Overture. 
3. Know Your Product, Know Your Audience 
Create a resource. By taking the time to learn about the products and/or services 
that you are offering you can create information that builds your credibility. That 
credibility builds trust. If your viewers do not have trust in you more than likely 
they will not purchase from your storehouse. If you want more information on the 
psychological process that an online buyer goes through I suggest that you read 
my article on the Five Levels of Internet Marketing and the Sales Process. This will 
Performance review phrases comments/ free download examples Page 3
help you in creating a web site that converts well, which in return will increase 
your cash flow. 
4. Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket 
Promote products from different merchants. This way if you have a problem with 
receiving payment from a merchant, or their products do not convert well the 
effects on your business will be minimal. Watch out for exclusivity agreements; 
remember this is your business. Protect yourself and diversify so that you do not 
feel the famine effect if something goes wrong. There is absolutely nothing wrong 
with promoting niche products from different merchants. 
5. Seek Knowledge and Embrace Change 
If you are familiar with Internet marketing at all you know that what worked three 
months ago may not work today. Stay on top of the trends. Seek knowledge, start 
by learning something new about affiliate marketing daily. For example remember 
those marketing tools called "banner" that use to drive sales at an astronomical 
rate a few years ago? Well those banners developed a term called "banner 
blindness." That means most online viewers will not click on banners even if they 
do pertain to what they are looking for. To be a "super" affiliate you must always 
spend time reading, learning, and embracing the changes in Internet marketing. 
6. Don't Give Up 
It's hard to do, and most of the time those dabbling in affiliate marketing give up 
way too soon. Monitor your statistics, watch to see what is working and what is 
not. Make changes when necessary. Do one thing daily to promote your storehouse 
and be patient. Before you know it you will start getting payments. 
Remember that it will not happen overnight. Encompass and develop the 
persistence, patience, and knowledge. Then follow the tactics I've mentioned 
above and you are on your way to becoming a "super" affiliate.
