Affiliate Programs These are the programs that give you the most opportunity for the average person with nothing more than their computer and an internet connection. You can get into an affiliate program with no business experience at all. You don't have to know programming. You don't have to have your own website. And best of all, you don't have to invest any money to do them. You may have misconceptions about what these programs are. Affiliate program means that you affiliate or set up a working relationship with a company. You aren't working for that company, you are working as an independent contractor, but you have an arrangement to sell the company's products or services. Some of them are direct sales companies, also known as multi level marketing (MLM). That simply means that you also have the opportunity to recruit a sales team under you and earn a commission on their sales as well as your own. Some people are under the misconception that this setup constitutes a pyramid scheme but that is not the case. Many well known companies are set up this way, not just online affiliate programs. Tupperware, Mary Kay and many other products are sold through MLM. I'm not saying that there are not programs out there that ARE pyramid schemes because there definitely are. I've written several articles on how to tell the difference so all it takes is a little due diligence and you'll be able to spot the scams easily but one good website with good information is www.dsa.org. A company that sells through MLM or direct sales has the advantage of having a large sales force but they don't have to support "employees" because the affiliates are independent representatives in business for themselves. The company doesn't have to pay them wages or benefits. They only pay a commission on sales. I'll give you a quick word of advice when looking at the different opportunities on the internet. First, make sure they have legitimate products that they are selling and second, that they don't charge a fee to join. If they charge a substantial fee just to join the program, it's a good indication that this is their primary source of income and they don't really have a good enough product to make a profit without "selling the opportunity." Steer clear of it. I'll give you some examples of legitimate affiliate programs. They are all free to join and have the potential for substantial income. SFI - One of the best out there and they have many different ways to make money with their program. They have great products for you to sell such as health and wellness, natural cleaning, personal care, magazines, a new garage sale feature where people can sell there unwanted stuff online and much more. This program is worth joining just for the wealth of information you'll find in the members area. This type of affiliate program lets you market their products using their website, but they personalize it to you, called a gateway page, so it will display your name as the affiliate. This let's you market their whole system with a professionally designed website and you don't need a website of your own. Other affiliate programs will give you text links, banners, etc. to advertise and sell for them but they won't give you a gateway page, so you need to have other means of advertising and making sales. One way to do this is by having your own website or making mini sites at places like Squidoo, (I explain Squidoo in the writing section) where you can display your affiliate links to the products you're selling. Low Stress Income - This #1 Rated affiliate program is free to join and they offer great in-demand products for you to sell and provide you with links and advertising you need to succeed. Another program that has a wealth of information in their affiliate resource center that you can access as soon as you join. Highly recommended.
