You can also think of affiliate marketing as “information drop shipping”
Just like with ecommerce physical products…
You don’t need to buy inventory and resell..
Simply promote offers through your unique affiliate link

2) The best and most ethical way to find affiliate offers
Is to be a happy customer of the product yourself
Creators want affiliates
And your audience wants your recommendations
Never promote anything you don& #39;t personally use and get results from

3) Where to find affiliate offers besides Gumroad
Clickbank
Teachables
ShareASale
Rakuten
CJ Affiliate
Disclosure: I haven& #39;t personally used all of these
Also look at companies themselves (for example, I& #39;m an aff for Gorilla Mind nootropics)

4) When should you start selling?
Wrong question
The right question is: how big is your *addressable audience?*u2028
Follower count is obviously a good indicator
The full answer is about your total reach: how many eyeballs across platforms can you put your offer in front of?

How big an audience you need is relative to the price of your offer
For high-ticket offers
You could sell a 10K offer to 1% of a 500 audience
And earn 25K if the commission is 50%

Most people reading this are selling lowed priced, gumroad products
You know where this is going: you need plenty of eyeballs
If your total audience is 3000 and 3% buy a $49 offer (you get 50%)
That’s only $2205.
The point? GROW YOUR AUDIENCE

I& #39;m not saying you need to wait for a specific audience size to start selling
But expecting "passive income" from a small addressable market is insanity
As you grow your audience, keep a 20/1 ratio of value tweets to promotion
But you can subtly promote an offer in every email

5) When you promote on Twitter, tweets with links don& #39;t get as many impressions
Solution:
use link in bio
use pinned tweet
attach the offer to the 2nd tweet of a viral tweet

For pinned tweet offers specifically:
* Excellent idea to use video / photos to make it popu2028
* Copywriting is key hereu2028
* Speak to the hyper specific pain / desire of your customer avatar

6) If you are promoting multiple offers, it& #39;s a good idea to create a simple landing page
The one in my bio was built in http://Carrd.co"> http://Carrd.co
You can also use
* http://linktr.ee"> http://linktr.ee u2028
* Leadpagesu2028
* Dropfunnels (Clickfunnels, but cheaper and faster)

7) Traffic Sources
Twitter is great (obviously) but don& #39;t sleep on other platforms to drive traffic/get eyeballs
Pinterest, blogging (especially ver niche sites), Instagram and YouTube
I& #39;m not going to go into depth about paid ads or influencers here, but they can CRUSH

8) Your playbook to sell multiple affiliate offers to the same buyer
Map their problem journey / desire evolution
If someone bought a fitness program, they need a meal plan
Don& #39;t be afraid to mix info and physical products
In this example, how about Apple Watch accessories?

9) Email marketing is how you sell multiple offers to the same buyer
And how you reduce your cost of acquisition from paid ads and influencers
Avoid MailChimp, they hate affiliate marketers
I like ConvertKit but GetResponse, Aweber or ActiveCampaign are all solid choices
