So here are 5 ways that I have made money with affiliate marketing and you can start making money with affiliate marketing relatively quickly with a little focus and ambition.

1. Forum Boss – You are going to pick a sub-niche (niche down man, I’m serious) and you are going to find an active forum that is niche specific.  Now your going to move into that place and take it over.  Every day you are going to be hanging out there putting in work.  Answering questions, posting questions, and more important posting about 1 significant article a week.  This article will be special.  It will be highly niche specific and it will mix 3 elements (story, lesson, and pitch).  In your signature you will have your affiliate link and you will always refer to it at the end of your article.  The goal here is to build massive trust and authority in that forum and earn the commissions from people clicking through to your recommendations.
2. Group Don – With this, again you are going to sub-niche down.  You are going to create a facebook group based around your specific sub-niche.  Next you are going to funnel targeted people into your facebook group through your chosen method (there are many ways to put people in a facebook group).  Now in your FB group you control the banner at the top which you can use for advertising and equally as important you also control the pinned post which you can use to funnel people to affiliate offers.  For this to work, again you need to work on building authority and trust in your facebook community.  In your group you will have some built in authority.
3. Video Titan – Youtube is another really convenient way to practice affiliate marketing because it’s free to start a youtube channel and they don’t mind you putting affiliate links in your descriptions.  The key here is to keep your channel very sub-niched down to promote faster growth.   Again, here your videos are going to follow that same basic formula, story to lesson to pitch.  Every single video you do this.  Also you want to publish consistently.
4. EBOOK SUPER – With this method what you do is this.  First create a very niche specific ebook.  Something like, “how to put 1,000 email subscribers on your list within 30 days.”  Next put that PDF on Google Docs.  Start a mailchimp account and create a mailchimp hosted opt-in form.  Next run paid ads to your opt-in and start a list with your free ebook.  Make sure that you are following the same basic formula in your ebook.  You are telling a story, you are teaching something, and you are pitching.  That’s right, you should have affiliate links in your ebook.
5. BLOG CLASSIC – Lastly let’s talk about the classic blog approach.  With this method you are going to start a niched down blog and commit to at least one niche specific article a week.  Your article?  You guessed it.  You’re going to follow that same basic approach of telling stories that teach lessons and pitch related products.  Also you are going to have a lead magnet on your blog so that you can collect email addresses to build a niche targeted list and promote to them.  Finally, with this method you need to drive traffic because nobody cares about your blog.  For free traffic you need to commit to building a presence on a platform where people in your niche already hang out (like facebook or youtube) and funnel traffic from there to your blog.  For paid traffic you need to understand that your traffic is very cold and you will have to strategically win them over on your blog, with your lead magnet, and through emails, to warm them up to you.
