Making Money Online Business - Part 2

#2 - Finding Targeted Leads for Affiliate Offers of Yours

So, you already heard about how you can market your own products or services (or those of others that you work a profit into), but perhaps an even easier way of making money with this is marketing products or services that you are an affiliate for others with leads you get from "The Tool". The idea behind it is relatively easy and similar to the previous section--you find the targeted leads and send the an e-Mail with your affiliate offer.

The key here is to target the leads well and send them an affiliate link to something that they'd be interested in. If you don't know much about affiliate marketing, it's basically where you send traffic to an affiliate link of yours that takes your leads to a merchant's site. If they make a purchase, you usually get a percentage typically ranging from 3% to 15% for physical products and 25% to 75% for digital products (i.e., e-books).

Linkshare.com, CommissionJunction.com, and ShareSale.com are great affiliate networks with hundreds to thousands of merchants that you can sign up for as an affiliate (including several of the major stores and website's out there) for mostly physical products. However, Clickbank.com and Paydotcom.com are more common affiliate networks for digital products.

You can sign up for an affiliate offer, copy down an affiliate link, and start finding targeted leads with "The Tool". You can target both direct leads (if someone is looking for an LCD television, you can send them to your affiliate link to a store selling LCD televisions at good prices) and indirect leads that are related (if someone is looking for an LCD television, you can refer them to a guide on how to find the best deals on LCD television's).

You can even target "wanted" sections to see what products people want and either send them targeted affiliate offers directly or just send them an affiliate link to Amazon.com or Ebay.com and earn commissions off of that.

The possibilities here are nearly limitless. To maximize your earnings, you can even target affiliate programs that offer recurring commissions so that your income grows and grows without doing any more work. But let's face it, not all of us are interested in directly selling our own products, marketing affiliate links, etc. No worries there, as "The Tool" still has some awesome uses for you.
