How to Set Up Your Own Affiliate Program

what if you didn't have to sell in your.
business the good news is it is possible.
to set up your own affiliate program you.
don't have to be amazon that's right it.
means that you can take a vacation and.
things are still going to be selling for.
you wouldn't that be amazing if you want.
to have your own affiliate program the.
most important thing for you to have is.
some sort of affiliate program sales.
page this is a big miss that most people.
completely skip out on and i really.
would ask you to reconsider that because.
when it comes to affiliate programs like.
airlines people have a choice and if you.
don't sell them on the benefits of.
joining your affiliate program over.
somebody else's they might choose to.
affiliate with somebody else who they.
know better or that gives them a bigger.
commission or that just prepared them.
better so take all that off the table by.
showing them right out of the gate that.
you are ready and willing to accept them.
as an affiliate should they meet certain.
criteria and that you are not only going.
to accept them but you're going to train.
them on how to be the best sales people.
possible for your products this is also.
going to help cut down on those.
frequently asked questions that you.
might otherwise get especially if you.
are running a lean team and don't have a.
ton of time to just sit there in your.
email all day that's the whole point of.
an affiliate program it's supposed to.
take work off your plate so if you.
create this info page the sales page of.
sorts that sells people into your.
program and answers all the questions.
they might have for example when their.
audience is going to be cookied is it.
the first one last one to visit their.
affiliate link are they going to get.
paid on a regular basis when can they.
expect the payouts how much can they.
expect per payout how does the payout.
come is it via paypal or a check like.
what does that look like so if you can.
answer those types of questions it shows.
not only that you understand what you're.
doing even if you don't yet it also.
tells them that you are going to take.
great care of them because you've.
already started to do that even before.
they chose to work with you the next.
affiliate program must have is some sort.
of tracker or plug-in we always want to.
make sure that our affiliates can see.
what sales they've made how many clicks.
they're getting what people are clicking.
on what products their audience is most.
interested in so that that affiliate can.
continue to move in the direction of.
what's working and maybe get rid of some.
of the things that aren't working as.
well they also need to be able to see.
how many people have purchased using.
their affiliate link so that they can.
always compare what their payout is.
compared to what they thought they were.
getting and that way it'll always be.
accurate because it was actually.
software and that has less of a chance.
for getting messed up than like some.
kind of manual tracking system finally.
the last thing i like to always provide.
to our affiliates is some sort of portal.
that includes any kind of assets like.
graphics and copy swipe files any kind.
of access to things that they might need.
to be a successful affiliate we train.
them inside that portal and they also.
have access to any kind of community.
resources there so that they can be the.
best affiliate that they can be it's a.
really great way to collect anything.
that you might need for your affiliate.
program and house it all in one spot and.
just keep adding to that so that your.
affiliates always have a resource.
available to them especially after a few.
months of running your affiliate program.
because you're just going to keep.
putting more and more things in there.
for them to access and be able to use as.
an affiliate we're only halfway through.
the year at the time i'm recording this.
and so that means that we've already.
paid out over a hundred grand in.
affiliate commissions right now that's a.
huge opportunity for us to continue to.
grow and expand my online store and for.
