Summary: Hey, this is Mike Cowles from epicmarketer.com and today were gonna talk about a secret affiliate strategy in order to generate more sales as an affiliate and then for the bonus tip we're gonna talk about how to get more sales from your affiliates. So let's jump right in! First thing as an affiliate the one thing that you want to remember is that you want to provide some kind of value to your potential customers. Instead of just saying "hey this is awesome check it out" why not share what you've discovered about this particular product or service and educate them a little bit as to what makes it awesome? If nothing else it's going to help them want to see more products from you in the future because they know that you're somebody that actually does the homework. So one of the best ways to do this is to make a video where you "unwrap the package" okay? So let's say it's a product on Amazon like a camera why not turn on your flip cam and open up the box once it gets shipped to you and show people here it is. Here's the lens that comes with it. Here's the case that comes with it, here's the strap, oh, you can see it's go an AD card, whatever it is. The different things that you discover while you unwrap it will help a lot of people that are on the fence for whether not they want to buy this product. Now when you do this you really set yourself apart from most other affiliates that simply put a link out there. Now as far as getting other affiliates to promote your products one of the best things that you can do is instead of just saying "join my affiliate program use this link and make a bunch of money" you want to understand that most affiliates are either new or lazy, okay? So what happens is because there's such a small percentage of affiliates that are "super affiliates" that have a bunch of traffic, that have the relationship, that know how to make the sales, you have to help your affiliates by leading by example. So the first strategy I told you about where you make a video where you demonstrate whatever it is or you unwrap whatever it is. What you want to do is you want to offer that video to your affiliates, okay? So what you can do is you can make a smaller version like a widget size one which is normally gonna be around 300 pixels wide, maybe 250 pixels wide, you can offer both of them. I suggest you use LeadPlayer what you can go to epicmarketer.com/bonus and you'll see that I offer bonuses on there, if you buy through my link. And what happens now is you're gonna get more views to your YouTube video that you have demonstrating this product which is gonna help your sales and plus when you give this Leadplayer code to your affiliates to put on their sites, it's gonna say on the side, maybe in the widgets section, "Check out this demo to see how I get keyword research done in under 90 seconds" or whatever it is. They put their link underneath that video code for their affiliate sales. So what happens now is when people visit their site is instead of just seeing a banner or just seeing a link or just getting an e-mail, now because you're giving them a video option you gonna get what's called residual income. Because when you give somebody a video that will pay them over and over again, they put it on their site. Whether it's on their download page or on the blog or whatever. That means that as long as they're in business as long as they have new people coming to their site or repeat visitors coming to their site, your ad as a vendor is been seen over and over again, which is great for you and it's great for them.
