Affiliate Marketing may be the Answer for Shah Training

Jun 30 2009

So I’ve had a site up for a while, and it’s just been this month that I decide to focus primarily on Affiliate Marketing.

Here’s the screenshot of my earning so far. As you can see, I tend to get my best sales on the weekends:

I think it has a lot to do with my target market – busy professionals. I do a ton of email marketing and so these professionals probably only check their personal email on the weekends.

The strategy I been using is very simple:

  1. Use PPC AND Article Marketing to Generate Traffice to Opt-In List Landing Page
  2. Write Blog Post designed to Get People to Purchase Product

Two simple steps and I’ve already doubled my earnings. My goal for next week is to break past $400 using this strategy.

The only thing is, as most of you have noticed, I tend to get 0 sales between Monday and Thursday (Except for Today, but I think that was a spillover from SUNDAY.

Here are the products that I’m selling right now:  turbulence training, gladiator body workout, naked commando system, meltdown kettlebell training, superior dumbbell workout, average joe workout, and workout without weights. So that’s 7 products, and I have 10 products featured on my site. 3 are not selling…yet.

I’ve seen a few sales that are not from my email list - so I just GUESS and say that they’re from either SEO or Article Marketing.

I think Article Marketing works, but just going crazy and writing random articles is point less and boring. I’ve been paying close attention to what headlines work, what kind of copy works, and what kind of call to action works.

I’ve been writing less articles lately. But higher quality. An article I wrote last week has already recieved 35 click thrus. My highest ever was 25 for an article that’s been up for months.

HOWEVER, I did not get any sales for the product I’m selling. That could mean that the copy on my website sucks. I’ll fix it and see what happens.

Bum marketing may be great, but not many people can sit there, put their brain to the side, and just write random junk. I’d rather write 3-4 articles that have 30 click thrus each and results in 3-4 sales per day rather than 20-30 articles with 3 click thrus per day resulting in 3-4 sales per day.

When you crunch the numbers and add in time, you realize you’re doing a lot of useless work for nothing. No one ever measures time. Time is just as, if not more important than money.

traffic does not necessarily equal sales. We know that. I’ll be doing some analysis on the past few weeks – how, where, what resulted in sales. The goal is to make at least on sale on monday through thursday. I’ll share my findings with all of you.
