world. Let's say that you're opening up a store selling mobile
phones and other hi-tech stuff made by a well known company.
Yours, of course, is not
only place in town where you can get
these items. You are not an exclusive dealer. Just like an
affiliate.
But unlike an affiliate, you have to do everything in your power
to make people come to your store and buy from you instead of
going to another store that sells exactly
same products.
Why? Because, if you don't make
sale then there's absolutely
nothing in it for you. Not to mention
cost of running a
business which in
offline world can be a nightmare.
I am not saying here, that if you are an affiliate for a company
you'll be making money without making any sales. I am just
pointing out that there are great affiliate programs that will
reward you with a small amount of extra cash generated by other
affiliates.
So, there's really no reason to get upset when other people make
sales. This is good for you too. Think about it for a moment, you
could actually be helping others making sales and still help
yourself growing revenue at
same time.
3. The more affiliates
better for you.
How do you think your competitors would react to your opening up
a new store and tightening
competition? Well, they're not
going to be thrilled, that's for sure! They have a lot to loose
and nothing to gain.
But what about you,
affiliate?
Let's face it. The internet is a huge place. Credibility and
trust are hard to come by and a lot harder to build.
New affiliates being added to a program everyday helps build a
reputation. It means that
program works and
company's
plans are sound. (More details on how to choose an affiliate
program can be found here :

)
You could have an unlimited number of affiliates under you or
above you and you would all be working to spread
word.
Wouldn't you yourself feel more comfortable signing up for a
program that you've stumbled upon more than a few times already?
A constantly growing number of affiliate sites stands as proof to
potential earnings. They are
best kind of publicity for
company behind them. They benefit and so do you.
So, it all comes down to this : don't discard affiliate programs
so easily when trying to build an online future. They can be an
excellent way of earning and learning at
same time.
