Many get confused with few programs and think that the programs they sign up for is Affiliate Marketing.

No.

It’s not.

And this is one reason we get into it and then run out.

No patience.

No planning.

No learning.

We just want to get in and start making money instantly.

Now, what is Affiliate Marketing?

If I have tanks to sell but you don’t have tanks to sell, yet you know people that need the tanks I sell, you can come and meet me, we strike a deal that for every tank you sell from me, you’ll take 40% of the profit. And I agree.

Deal sealed.

Business starts.

With this, we just kick-started a business using the principle of Affiliate Marketing.

The word affiliate means being officially attach or connect to a person or an organization.

Then marketing here is making selling easier.

Why and how?

You know the customers who need the goods; you know the good they want – tanks; you also know where they are – location, and you understand their way of thinking – psychographics.

Please pay attention here.

This is why it’s not called Affiliate Selling but Affiliate Marketing.

So…

Learning to know how to connect with people is more important than signing up.

Why?

If you learn that art of connecting with people, you can use that same skill in any other business you are involved in.

So let’s get it straight: Affiliate Marketing is a kind of marketing system where the owner of a product pays a percentage of the profit of the product to an Affiliate who sells the product.

That’s all.

Nothing more.

Nothing less.

The next question now is this,
