When I first found out about affiliate marketing, I thought
gee-whiz this is going to be a cake-walk. I had done a little research, on the subject and was all ready to get off to the races. Boy did I get a rude awakening!
I really thought all I needed to do was share some links with people and the sales would happen like magic. It wasn’t my fault, this is the impression that is given by a lot of marketers. It took me a while to figure out that impression it is a bit of a ploy by these marketers, to help them get more sales. After all, saying things like affiliate marketing is really hard, and takes years to make progress is not going to entice anyone to make a purchase is it?
However, this “it is so easy” trend, also does a lot of harm in my opinion. It creates a cycle of failure, frustration, and suspicion. I certainly felt all of those things in the beginning. If it wasn’t for the fact that I am so stubborn and keen to understand why I wasn’t getting results, well I would have left affiliate marketing behind a long time ago.
The truth is, affiliate marketing CAN be quite easy AFTER you have learned the correct skills. However it seems that very few people are willing to take the time and energy to learn. This is of course also related to this “it is so easy” ad culture. There is a sense of “you just need the right product and sales will fly”. This keeps people on the hook and buying more….. it is called shiny object syndrome in the business.
After I figured out a lot about what was actually going on with the advertisng culture, I was quite unhappy to be honest. It really put me off working as an affiliate for a long time. I really hated the fact that there is an acceptance of a 5% of people will succeed and 95% will fail rate. So, I decided that I wanted to challenge the status quo. I took my time and figured out how to turn that around.
Affiliate marketing is no cake-walk. It takes committment, no half measures. Time is money. As you will find out as you embark on your own amazing journey.
It’s very normal to have high expectations. You see people all around you telling you how to become rich overnight. It doesn’t happen. The world is full of unscrupulous people who offer you a golden carrot to entice you to part with your hard earned cash.
corrupt. crafty. crooked. deceitful. dishonest. Will best describe these people. You will soon get to know who to trust. This will take time and by always being on your guard. If it’s too good to be true, you are on the right track. “Once bitten twice shy”. You won’t be caught out a second time.
One most important asset you have to have, in your amazing new business adventure, is a genuine strong list of real leads who want what you want. So helping your people become successful is your only goal. Basically I wasn’t getting the sales that I wanted to get, and I wanted to try something different to see if it worked or not.
