Don't forget all of this is tied to you and your business also, important for repeat affiliate business. If someone gives you cash, you don't forget it, and no doubt you'll be back for more, as will your affiliates flood back to you over multiple businesses.


Communication - The Key to Profits

Which brings me to my final point, and probably the most important one in this section. Communication is the key. As well as sending bonuses and offers, an e-mail with a 'Congrats, you've made cash' subject can be one heck of a motivator. It's also important to remind your affiliates, not necessarily through offers, but often letting them in on info like 'It can take seven times and upwards of 10 times that people have to see your offer before they will sign up'.

We've seen those before, and that is the purpose. I have found to an extent that with mailing list advertising, this is indeed true, provides a good excuse for you to mail your affiliates, and also provides them with the confidence they need to know that send out another mailing to their list isn't going to be a waste of time. They'll gobble up any free info and tips you can give them, simply because it means more money for them. (And for you in this case)


Crafting Your Welcome &
Congrats E-mails
Make sure you craft your congratulations e-mails and welcome emails well. Still on the subject of mailing your affiliates, it's important for everything to be smooth, quick and easy for them. Some just have lists that they want to blast your ads out to. Your job is to make that as smooth as possible. Send them a log in link in the welcome mail, tell them again how much they'll earn, give them some small stats and figures; 'With just '10 sales, you'll earn $7000'. Emphasize the second levels, no matter how small. This passive earning is really important to a lot of marketers.


Think of this as kind of a small sales letter, but crossed with an instruction manual. They've signed up, now sell onto the promotion with how much they can earn and how quickly. Don't forget to tell them to click the link below, copy and paste the pre-written ads, blast them out to their lists or the list of provided e-zines, and await the congratulatory e-mails from you, saying they have cash. Don't just suggest an action and expect them to do it. Close the sale. Tell them to do it, and your response will increase dramatically.


Emphasize pay days, and tell them to look out for special promotions and bonuses from you that will give them the opportunity to promote your other products, or even promote this product at a higher commission. This really should have gone in the bonuses section that we talked about earlier, but since we're here, try not to give the reader any excuse to hold off.


For example, I remember four years or so back I joined a membership site and was all ready to go off promoting for them as an affiliate, then when I saw the welcome mail, I was told to look forward to an e-mail soon that would entitle me to extra earnings promoting the product. Just that wording almost put me off. I later found out that it was actually bonuses and top affiliate rewards for the previous couple of months, but see how that mail seemed like a good deal, but
