Making Money Getting Other People to Sell for
You with 'two-tier affiliate programs'
I think that it was John Paul Getty who said that he'd rather have
1% of 100 people's efforts, than 100% of his own. And with the Internet,
that becomes so much easier to do - and I'm NOT talking about network
marketing or mlm.
Two-tier affiliate schemes
Having just finished designing two websites, one for a motor garage,
one for a secretarial service, I suggested they join some affiliate
programs and advertise some complimentary products, and earn some
commissions. They both agreed, so I spent a little time finding
and recommending suitable ones to them. Great. They're happy to
have the opportunity to increase profits, I'm happy because I can
too.
Whenever you can, sign up to 'two-tier affiliate programs'.
As well as making commissions on your direct sale referrals, you'll
also earn commissions on affiliates who sign up through you and
make sales - in effect profit for no effort.
Here are some companies offering decent two-tier programs:
Ad
Reporting - Earn 10% on all sub-affiliate
commissions.
Affiliate
Future - Offers several UK two-tier programs, various commissions.
Affiliate
Window - Same as above.
clickXchange
- 5% on sub-affiliate commissions
plus bonuses.
ClixGalore - 5% on sub-affiliate
commissions plus bonuses.
Commission
Junction.
Commissions on recruiting affiliates and advertisers.
Intellectua
- Not an affiliate programs site, but a site selling a large selection
of downloadable books - 10% commission from your sub-affiliates.
Leadhound
- 5% commissions on sub-affiliates
LinkShare
Referral Program
- commissions on sub-affiliates.
UK
Affiliates - Jumping the gun with this one as they're not yet
quite ready to offer sub-affiliate commissions, but has a good range
of quality affiliate programs to sign up for.
Now - Of VITAL Importance...Well, I really recommend you doing
it this way ... Join only programs that you can market yourself,
i.e. do your best to make sales yourself. That way you'll be in
a better position to help and advise any sub-affiliates you pick
up.
At the end of the day, you have to make sales to make money, otherwise
all you get is a list of people recruiting affiliates, expecting
the next person to do the work --- and no one getting anything.
Best of success,
Vic

Computer crash
A few weeks back one of the servers hosting several of my websites
crashed - ugh! Luckily all the information was on my local computer,
but it still was a pain in the backside having to put 'everything
together again'.
So just when I thought all was okay - my local computer crashes
- and badly. I eventually had to admit defeat and call in a computer
technician to help me out. So if you're reading this from around
Wetherby in West Yorkshire and need a computer technician, computer
upgrade etc. etc., I'm happy to recommend Jonathan at WetherbyComputerCentre.
He saved my vegie-sausage, may save your bacon.
Vic
PS. The crash reminded me that it might be time to retire my faithful
four year old. Just like new cars, new computers instantly devalue
once you've bought them, so I fancied the idea of a factory refurbished
guaranteed computer.
After a few hours searching on the internet I found a company offering
new computers boxes from £279, refurbished desktop systems
from £350 and refurbished laptops from £500 - all with
good specifications. Find out more here: New
and guaranteed factory refurbished desktops and laptops
PPS. Also found a good company for all your office
stationery and accessories here, and cheap
mobile phone deals here.

My Joint Venture = Discounted Joint Ventures and
Copywriting for You - Subscribers Only Offer
Joe Kumar, he of '30 Days to Internet marketing Success' fame,
has just been 'buying out' part of the rights to a famous internet
marketers products. The marketer in question is Terry Dean, who
wants a slightly quieter life (now he's got all the money he needs!).
Basically, Joe invested a 4-figure sum obtaining the rights to
resell 2 of Terry Dean's brand products:
'Advanced Joint Venture Secrets' and 'Internet Copywriting
Secrets Revealed'
They are both physically shipped tapesets, with several bonuses
available immediately as digital downloads. Both 'ADVANCED Joint
Venture Secrets' and 'Internet Copywriting Secrets Revealed' normally
sell for $97 each - and are worth twice that based on the bonuses
for each alone.
Subscriber Only Offer - (If you're not already
a subscriber - sign up here
now, it's free) - What I'd like to do, is make you a special offer.
I've talked Joe into giving you the exact same deal he gave his
own subscribers: 2 for the price of one.
Simply buy Advanced Joint Venture Secrets for $97 from the special
web address you'll find on the subscribers page, then email Joe
and let him know that you're a subscriber to Vic Carrara's SuccessSecrets,
and you want 'Internet Copywriting Secrets Revealed' for free.
He'll be in touch within 24 hours giving you immediate online
access to the bonuses of Internet Copywriting Secrets Revealed,
and he'll be shipping *both* tapesets for Advanced Joint Venture
Secrets and Internet Copywriting Secrets Revealed to you.
That's a $194 value for half the price. And he'll also be paying
for the shipping of both tapesets for you. The usual fee that is
charged for these tapes is $7 to ship to the United States & Canada,
and $12 to ship internationally, but you get your shipping free
with him, no matter where you live! Not only do you get 2 for the
price of one, but you also get your shipping free. So, instead of
paying $ (97 + 7 or 12 + 97 + 7 or 12) = $208 or $218, all you're
paying is $97 for everything!
Now that's a great deal on some great know-how.
If you're already a subscriber, you know where to go for the link.
If you're not, sign
up now here for free.
Best,
Vic

Pin money and marketing...
Many of you reading this will have heard about me via ebay.co.uk,
the online auction site.
As a way of casting as wide a marketing net as possible, I regularly
auction off various marketing ebooks at bargain prices (you can
check out my current ebay auctions here)
in an effort to add subscribers.
You'll also notice some other stuff I'm selling - books on crafts,
pewter, design etc. No, I'm not a book dealer --- I just regularly
clear out 'stuff' I no longer need, use, want. All helps to keep
Samuel in fresh nappies.
Something else you can do on ebay is test your salescopy. By changing
the headline of one item I regularly sell, I increased sales 50%.
And by tinkering with the salescopy, I can find out what works,
what doesn't very easily (i.e. sales go up, or go down).
Sign with eBay.co.uk
here. It's free and easy.

How NOT to design a web page!
There are two things that should be paramount when you start to
design your first web page.
Is it search engine friendly, and does it make targeted visitors
stay?
You won't want to do what I've been known to do, redesign a live
site three times in a fortnight! (and I'm still struggling to clear
the broken links --- ugh)
Here are some web design resources you'll want to look at if your
aim is to build a website that gets ranked by the search engines,
creates interest, and makes you money:
