 Back
when my online business consisted ONLY of affiliate
sites, I had no need for a personal assistant.
The
sites were all in place, and my affiliated merchants
handled everything related to orders.
Last
week, one of my clients mentioned that he was moving
AWAY from selling his own products to promoting more
affiliate programs just for the simplicity and freedom.
Yup,
he definitely 'gets' it.
Although
there are many, many benefits to promoting affiliate
programs with your own home-based Internet business,
here are my top 10 reasons to become an affiliate
marketer.
1. No Product Development Costs -
The cost to develop and produce a new product is expensive!
But you needn't worry about that as an affiliate.
2. Low Cost Set-up - Got a desk,
Internet-connected computer and word-processing software?
You're in business!
3. No Fees or Geographic Limits on Distribution
- Affiliate programs are usually free to join, and
market reach is limited only by the affiliate's ability
to promote his or her web site.
4. Choose From Thousands of Products and Services
- What isn't sold online? With affiliate networks
like Commission Junction, Be Free and Linkshare, it's
easy to find products related to your current or planned
web site.
5. No Merchant Account Required -
Forget the problems associated with collecting and
storing names, addresses, credit card numbers, etc.
The merchant handles all payment processing, so you
never have to lose sleep over chargebacks, fraud or
losing your merchant account.
6. No Inventory to Carry - Even if
you live in a small one-bedroom apartment, you can
sell large items without storage concerns.
7. No Shipping Costs - Don't worry
about buying packing supplies or postal rates. The
cost and hassle to prepare and ship products to customers
worldwide belongs to the merchant.
8. No Customer Concerns - Do you
hate the prospect of dealing with nasty people? Don't
worry about it! The merchant handles the snivelers.
9. Make Money While You Sleep - What
other business allows you as a sole proprietor to
keep your doors open and keep making money even when
you take breaks or after you go home for the night?
10. High Income Potential - With
your own affiliate business your income potential
is limited only by your desire, effort and imagination
- not your boss.
Relatively low outlay of resources with huge potential
returns truly makes affiliate marketing on the Internet
an outstanding business opportunity.
