I wonder from time to time if we’ve been clear about what your role as a wealth creation affiliate is. Well, it’s a varied role that is part marketing, part business partner, and part entrepreneur. All in all, your primary job-focus, though, comes down to one thing: pre-selling.

Where Your Affiliate Efforts Fit It

You are an affiliate for two reasons:

1. You want to make money through a passive stream of income
2. You believe in the product you are backing

And I guess these two really equate to a third reason:

3. You want to see others succeed in wealth creation

While achieving these goals, you also help our wealth creation program and our wealth creation affiliate program succeed, and that helps us help others too.

Before I digress to far, let’s get back to how your efforts help all of us achieve all of these goals.

As a wealth creation affiliate, you are our first-line of selling. You are reaching people that apparently we have not been able to reach before through our marketing avenues. You may have a better sense of what your particular customers want, you may have access to a niche market that we haven’t considered or successfully tapped, or you might be reaching locals that haven’t thought to look up wealth creation.

However you are reaching your audience, you are reaching them if they are at your website, reading your articles, or visiting your blog. As their first introduction to wealth creation, you become the first line of sales.

This serves to define your role as a wealth creation affiliate. Your job when you reach people is to pre-sell the featured product to them. Anything you do on your own (on a personal web space, blog, etc…) warms your customer up so that they will be receptive to learning more about your product when they get to your wealth creation affiliate website.

And This Means

I bring this to light to help you understand what your function is. You are more than a link to an affiliate website, you are a marketing agent. The more active an agent you are, the better your pre-selling will be and the more success your wealth creation affiliate program will enjoy. I hope this helps so that you can efficiently target your efforts as a wealth creation affiliate!

Maybe you already have a website for personal or business use, and maybe you don’t. With an outside website, you increase the visibility of your dedicated wealth creation affiliate website even more.

Using Your Website For Affiliate Promotion

An outside website can very easily be used to market your wealth creation affiliate website. In short time, you can use the traffic that you’ve already brought into your personal or business website to promote your affiliate program, too.

It’s a simple matter to add a bit to an outside website about the wealth creation product you are offering, offer up links to the products (which of course are yours that go to your wealth creation affiliate website) and let your affiliate website take it from there. You can do this as a feature on a main page, in a column on a sidebar, or in a page of links. You can also include your link in the signature line of emails that are generated from your outside website.

What If You Don’t Have Another Website?

If you don’t have an outside website yet, consider getting one. You can use it for anything—make a personal website, a hobby site, or a secondary wealth creation website where you post on your own about wealth creation and link to your wealth creation affiliate website.

Contrary to what you may be thinking, it is not hard or expensive to have a website. You can get a website for free sometimes from your internet service provider, or you purchase one for a few dollars a month. Many website hosting services also offer templates and build-your-own software, so you can even build a secondary wealth creation website even if you know nothing about coding, website design, or programming.

This is another great way for you to increase your exposure on the web and build inbound links to your wealth creation seller site. Have fun with it, and add this affiliate marketing technique to your affiliate program portfolio.

Remember how we talked about using traditional means of marketing to promote your wealth creation affiliate program? Did you read the post about telling others about your plans as a wealth creation affiliate? I hope you took those words to heart and are enjoying the advantages of both. Now, let’s combine the two to reap the reward of one of the oldest, simplest, and most trustworthy forms of traditional marketing known to marketing—word of mouth.

Capture The Power Of Word Of Mouth

Since man has been trading with one another, man has been talking about it. They’ve shared information to help themselves and help others. They’ve told people about the goods they have available and about why those people need their goods. And it worked! Commerce was built on man’s ability to use word-of-mouth to promote his products! And even still today, word of mouth stands as one of the strongest, most reliable marketing forces.

The best thing about word of mouth is that it is easy and it’s free. All you have to do is talk. Or, in the cyber-world, type, and let people know, person to person, that you have a great wealth-creation product that can help them.

Why Word Of Mouth Is So Powerful

Word of mouth is a powerful marketing source for one reason—trust. It’s really hard to know who to trust, but it’s a lot easier to trust a program that you know has netted success for someone you have come to know (even if you do not know them face-to-face). All most people need to know about a wealth creation program to really trust in it is that someone they know, or someone just like them, was able to use it and to succeed.

Word Of Mouth In The Cyber-Age

Take advantage of word of mouth in all its various forms. Tell people you know, pass out a business card with details, and talk online. Emails, forums, chats—all of these are just cyber-forms of word of mouth, and many people have taken to checking out a program through one of these avenues that they deem more trustworthy than a faceless affiliate website.

Get to know those close to you—online and off—and harness the marketing power of word of mouth for your affiliate website, too.

I hope that your wealth creation affiliate website is not a secret that you’ve been keeping. I hope you are telling everyone you can think of about not only your affiliate website, but also the wonderful product that you believe so much in that you’ve chosen to invest in this affiliate program!

And now, I’ll tell you why I think you need to…

Tell Someone About Your Wealth Creation Affiliate Website

There are a lot of reasons that you should be telling people about your affiliate website. And I don’t just mean getting the word out on the web—I mean actually, physically speaking and talking to another human being in your life. Here’s why this is important:

• The gravity of reality
For some reason, as humans we believe that we are doing something if we hear ourselves talk about it. Ever hear someone sneer that if you say something enough, you’ll start to believe it? Well, there is some truth to that statement. Tell someone about your affiliate website so that it is real to you.

• Commitment to success
None of us like to fail in the eyes of others. When you tell someone you are going to find success as a wealth creation affiliate, you better your chances of doing so because now you have the added motivation of proving yourself right! Letting those close to you know what you’ve been up to serves as a commitment to succeed.

• Building a support system
I hope your family and friends have the faith in you that you deserve. Engage those who are most supportive of your endeavors in your efforts as a wealth creation affiliate so that you have a place to turn when you start to doubt your success.

• Networking and sharing financial success
You believe in this product, you believe people should buy it and become wealthy. I hope you believe that those you care for should, too! Don’t be stingy—share the wealth! Tell people around you about your wealth creation website so that they can make money, create wealth, and build a secure financial future of their own!

So there are four good reasons to speak up about your affiliate website and participation in this affiliate program….can you add more?

Come on, let others in on the good stuff, get support, and commit to your investment—tell someone about your wealth creation affiliate program today! Live in fear of success and failure no longer!

I happened across a post on a blog last week that was pretty negative in regards to streams of passive income—specifically, affiliate programs. Apparently, the writer didn’t think that good things came of making money while you sleep.

Of course, this got my guard up a bit, but it also got my mind thinking about whether or not passive income is or has to be passionless. You see, the argument this author was enforcing was that passive income was not beneficial, and possibly not sustaining, because it lacks the opportunity for working passionately; and as we all know, if you are not passionate about a thing, it is hard to spend your life doing it.

Passive Does Not Equal Passionless

Affiliate programs are designed to be reasonably easy to run and to help you make money without having to shell out a lot, and without the requirement of being an industry expert. There is nothing in the design of an affiliate program that negates an interest or denies passion.

Passion as an affiliate comes from an interest in a program and in the products that you are selling. I would argue that affiliate programs can certainly create passion. It doesn’t matter if you are the inventor of a product or program—you can still be a believer and in love with the idea of a thing!

I take my passion in my passive affiliate work from my belief in our wealth creation products. I believe that good things happen to people who really learn to use and apply these products. More importantly, I know that this is true because I’ve seen the success! I am the success!

I enjoy knowing that I am helping others like me find a better life and an easier path to wealth creation. I take pride in knowing that I am helping to unveil the mysteries of wealth creation that have hindered the lives of average men and women the world over. And I am passionate about spreading the good news—and about sharing the wealth through our wealth creation affiliate websites and affiliate programs!

Passive just means easier—it does not mean without passion. I maintain today, as I always will, that there is plenty of room for passion in your work as a wealth creation affiliate, and I hope you do as I have done, and harness that passion to boost you towards great success as a wealth creation affiliate.
