Yesterday, we touched on creating a targeted list to promote to with the help of eCourses and Squeeze Pages. Today, we’re going to discuss lists again, but this time we want to discuss list building a bit more in depth.

You can’t just promote any old thing to all of your readers, especially if they are in different markets. For example, you wouldn’t promote mineral makeup to a market that is interested in classic cars.

I know that seems like a no-brainer, but you^‘d be amazed at the number of affiliates who don’t realize how important it is to know your market and what they want. Instead, they see the term affiliate marketing, immediately think “easy” money and start throwing links for everything under the sun out to their visitors. Well many of them don’t stop there, they pass it on to their lists too (if they even have a list that is).

As an online business owner, your mailing list is your most powerful tool when it comes to making money. This is true, not only for those with their own products, but affiliates as well. If you want to be a super affiliate you need to make the most of the lists you currently have and even create more lists that target those interested in what you have to offer.

Now, I^‘m not saying go out and start creating lists willy-nilly here. Stick with your market and create lists that fit with their wants and needs.

No matter what market you’re in, if you are an affiliate you€’ve probably found and recommend products that fit with that particular market, right? Well stick with those products and create eCourses, newsletters, etc. that resonate well with your market.

Here’s a great tool to help you create emails for your lists that will result in action and not deletion:

Now it’s your turn to work on improving or expanding your lists so that you can set them up to promote products your readers can use.

Hello again!

Yesterday, we talked about redirecting your affiliate links. I hope you’ve had a chance to begin redirecting your links, either on your own site or through a new domain. If you haven’t, then don’t forget that easy, yet many times forgotten, step toward becoming a super affiliate.

Today, I want to kick it up another notch and put you even further on your way to becoming one of the super affiliates of your chosen program. We’re going to talk about eCourses and squeeze pages in today’s lesson.

Obviously you know what an eCourse is since you are in the process of one right now with these emails. One way to really get people who are interested in what you have to offer (targeted customers) is to create an eCourse that you can promote your product(s) inside of.

eCourses can be as long or as short as you’d like to make them; just remember the key is to teach your readers something and offer them tips and tools (affiliate promos) to help them accomplish their goal.

Create your eCourse and load it up in an autoresponder so it’s all automated. Always be thinking big and being consistent!

Once you’ve created your eCourse, then it’s time to set up a squeeze page where people can go to sign up for you course.

You can do this in a variety of ways. You can buy a new domain specifically for the course or set up a page on an exisiting site of yours where you can send targeted traffic. Either way works as long as you take the time and do the work to get people there.

Why not take a few minutes today to brainstorm ideas for an eCourse that would go well with the product(s) within your chosen affiliate program. Remember, your course can be as short or long as you’d like, but I recommend for this first one that you start with a 5 day course.
