Read reviews. Maybe you joined some programs because they sounded soo great, you thought to yourself “ What if it’s true?”. I’ve gotta at least try it. If and when it doesn’t work out, you don’t blame system, it’s a “Proven System” with “Testimonials” instead you blame yourself.

If , in Offline World, you had 20 jobs and you put in 2 hours a week per job, do you think you would excell in any one, or better yet, all of them? Even if one of them was a great company? Unlikely…

You now have one more tool in your Shed of Wisdom to use. Learn how to use it. There are many more and I suggest you find them and use them. Make your own decision whether or not a company can serve your purpose. Don’t believe Hype. Investigate and then choose.

Any company claiming to do Everything cannot possibly do any one thing exceptionaly.

Choose one company that has a good reputation for Hosting, Tracking and Building a website. Choose one or two companies known for their Quality submitting and lead generating ability. Choose another for it’s Autresponding and list building prowess. Put power of these four or five companies complimenting each other together, and you have a well oiled Money Making Machine!

Once you get comfortable driving this beauty, then you can start confidently re-investing and perpetually increasing your income.

I choose Car or Dog. Sometimes I put dog in car!

Now, which do you choose…

The lessons to be learnt from this are:

If you create a product, make sure you have an affiliate program. It will save you a lot of money and sales will come in faster. If you are fortunate to find a product that you believe in before it gets rolled out, grab it and stick to it.

Two things are happening at this point in time that you need to be very aware of. First of all, owner of product is still busy building his affiliate base and has not yet achieved maximum profitability with his product. Secondly, affiliates had a relatively easy time with little competition for sales.

From this point of time in more affiliates will join program. This is good for owner of program as more sales will be generated. There will however be a lot of competition for affiliates and those affiliates who do not know what they are doing can expect less and less sales. The inexperienced marketer had better hope that this product generates a residual income!

Eventually, market will have received high exposure to product. Customers will have started to use product and provide feedback and creator of product will be made aware of possible improvements that can be made to product.

At this point in time, creator of product can start cycle again by either offering an update on product or by releasing a completely new product that satisfies customer demand.

Although an affiliate as such is unable to modify actual product, he can change packaging/ presentation, include bonuses and to some extent recreate a USP for product. These changes are in fact necessary for an affiliate to stand any sort of a chance with marketing product after initial roll out is completed.

What can be learnt from planning for “Product Life Cycle”?

Get in early with something you believe in and stick to it; Think of a unique presentation for product; Build a referral base; Make sure that your opportunity includes a residual income.

Follow these guidelines for selecting those opportunities that you align yourself with. It will serve you well.
