Whenever someone reads a free ebook and purchases a product from an affiliate link, the marketer earns a sales commission.
The problem is you do not have the time to explain to them the value of the products you are recommending.
What’s the Solution?
The solution, you can produce an ebook that discusses topics related to your product. Of course the affiliate product will be an extension of your product. This ebook should be minimum 5 pages, and up to 15 pages long.
In reality, it is quite easy to write a 5-15 page ebook that is informative and useful, while still having potential for a profitable affiliate marketing income. In this ebook, talk about a topic that relates to your product. From there, try to provide any or all solutions to the situations your readers may be experiencing.
How Do I Find a Topic?
You need to find a topic where you can simply create at least five pages of content. The best way to do this is to explore forums that pertain to your product.
Many individuals will post comments on forums. Your job, provide the answers to their problems.
Try being part of a forum group. Not only can you participate in the discussions, you can also get referrals. The opportunity for potential customers is there as well.
How Do I Find Related Affiliate Products?
If you look hard enough, you will find that somebody has already created a product that provides a solution to the problems people are having.
All you have to do is find this product and become an affiliate. Seeing that you want the best results from what you are offering, you may want to get some feedback from others who have used the product. Again, use forums.
After looking at the forum and support material, you can easily create your ebook. Most affiliate programs have marketing material that you can use to help create your content.
What’s My Main Focus?
You will talk about the problem and ways they can find the solution. In this free ebook, you will discuss the topic in general terms. You will refer to your product, not too often though. The key is to talk about the benefits of using the product without obvious sales talk or being too pushy. Just mention it enough to peak their curiosity. This should lead them to your site.
Once they are there, they can click on your affiliate links. Most affiliate products have a sales page, so you can leave the selling to the referral site.
As long as you do a good job pre-selling your readers on that particular product, they will arrive at the site ready to buy.
In your ebook, you want to provide useful information while gently persuading the reader to check out your affiliate link. As long as you focus on creating good content for your reader, you will see your affiliate revenue increase.
