In affiliate marketing, there are many
ways in which you can increase your earnings and maintain the account that you
have worked so hard for already. Most of the techniques and tactics can be
learned easily. No need to go anywhere and any further. They are available
online, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
One of the more important ways of
increasing affiliate marketing bottom line and sale is through the use of
product recommendations. Many marketers know that this is one of the most
effective ways in promoting a certain product.
If the customers or visitors trust you
enough, then they will definitely trust your recommendations. Be very careful
in using this approach, though. If you start promoting everything by
recommendation, your credibility will actually wear thin. This is seen
especially when recommendations are seemingly exaggerated and without much
merit.
Do not be afraid to mention things that
you do not like about a given product or service. Rather than lose any points
for you, this will make your recommendation more realistic and will tend to
increase your credibility.
Furthermore, if your visitors are really
interested in what you are offering, they will be more than delighted to learn
what is good about the product, what is not so good, and how the product will
benefit them.
When you are recommending a certain
product, there are some things to remember on how to make it work effectively
and for your advantage.
Sound like the true and leading expert
in your field.
Remember this simple equation: Price
resistance diminishes in direct proportion to trust. If your visitors feel and
believe that you are an expert in your niche, they are more inclined to making
that purchase. On the other hand, if you are not exuding any confidence and
self-assurance in endorsing your products, they will probably feel that same
way and will go in search of another product or service which is more
believable.
How do you establish this aura of
expertise? By offering unique and new solutions they would not get anywhere
else. Show proof that what you are promoting works as promised. Display
prominent testimonials and endorsements from respected and known personalities,
in related fields of course.
Avoid hype at all costs. It is better to
sound low key and confident, than to scream and seek attention. Besides, you
would not want to sound unprofessional and have that thinking stick to your
potential customers and clients. The best way to do that is to appear cool and
self-assured at the same time.
And remember; prospects are not stupid.
They are actually turning to experts and may already know the things that you
know. If you back up your claims with hard facts and data, they would gladly
put down hundreds, or even thousands worth of money to your promotions. But if
you don’t, they are smart enough to try and look at your competitors and what
they are offering.
While recommending a product, it is also
important that you give out promotional freebies. People are already familiar
with the concept of offering freebies to promoting your won products. But very
few people do this to promote affiliate products. Try to offer freebies that
can promote or even have some information about your products or services.
Before you add recommendations to you
product, it is given that you should try and test the product and support. Do
not run the risk of promoting junk products and services. Just think how long
it took you to build credibility and trust among your visitors. All that will
take to destroy it is one big mistake on your part.
If possible, have recommendations of
products that you have 100% confidence in. Test the product support before you
begin to ensure that the people you are referring it to would not be left high
and dry when a problem suddenly arouse.
Have a look at your affiliate market and
look at the strategies you are using. You may not be focusing on the
recommendations that your products need to have. You plan of action is
sometimes not the only thing that is making your program works.
Try product recommendation and be among
those few who have proven its worth.
