  1. Choose a market that has low supply and high demand: Try to choose a market that has an urgent need but few people supplying it. It is important to cut down competition in order to make a decent profit. At the same time you want a hungry market that will want to buy your product at all costs. This type of market is termed a niche market.
  1. Find out what this market needs: analyze your market well and find out what their greatest problem is. Once you have done this you can explore the products that will solve the problem.
  1. Choosing products: join a number of affiliate products that are all related to this market and are in high demand. All the products should be able to solve this problem and possibly other problems your market might be facing as well.

Different products: depending on your market needs there are a few standard types of products that they might need.

  • Info products: many people want to learn more about a specific topic. It can be for business or pleasure. There are a few different types of these products. They are usually digital.
    • E-books
    • Reports
    • Audios
    • videos
  • Software and tools: many people want software and tools to help their businesses. Sometimes you can develop unique software that can help your potential customers. You need to sell as many as you can before your competition copies your idea.

Different affiliate programs: there are different programs that you can join to get these products out to your market.

  • Residual: These are programs and products that have a reoccurring monthly fee and will allow you to collect commissions every month. Examples of these are membership sites and PLR sites. If you join as many of these as possible you will build a good permanent income with less promotional effort.
  • High ticket items: These are products that sell for more but will give you a big commission. They might be harder to sell than cheaper products but will pay well. Examples of these high ticket items are Seminars. These tickets can often go for anything from $100 to $1000 depending on who is speaking.
  • Low ticket items: These are one off commissions and depend on just one sale but because the items are cheaper they are easier to sell.

Using bonuses to sell more affiliate products: This is common practice with experienced affiliate marketers. They send their offer of an affiliate product to their list and promise that if the potential customer buys and sends their receipt to them they can pick up a free bonus. You can offer any number of info products as an incentive bonus. You can get the master resell rights to products like e-books or have one specially written for you.
