Working With Affiliate Programs

Everywhere you look you see affiliate program offers for every product or service that you can think of. Some havefully automated systems that sell high volumes of hard products all over the world. In case you don't know, "hard"products are those that you can touch...unlike an ebook or downloadable web template. Many affiliate programs have several thousand affiliates and one or two of the bigger companies have over one million affiliates.

What are the advantages of joining an affiliate program?

They provide a ready-made business. This is a very big plusfor those people who want to earn some kind of living offthe Internet but lack the knowledge or inclination to set up a business by themselves.
Commissions and rewards are generally good, and the more established programs offer a real chance of advancement to higher and better-paid levels.
Other affiliates are usually on hand to offer practical support.

What are the limitations?

You are restricted in your promotional activities due to the fact that you do not actually own the affiliate site they give you. You won't be able to put such things as banners,images, links, meta tags, etc. onto your page.The URL of your affiliate page is often either too long or contains such awkward things as question marks, which many Search Engines will not index.

Any promotional ads or articles have probably already been used by thousands of other people and consequently may have lost its impact, making it more difficult to achieve sales or referrals.
If the program you have joined has not yet established itself (or in some cases even if it has), then you may encounter problems with payments owed to you not being honored. You also run the risk of low quality products orsub-standard statistics that do not accurately record how many referrals or sales you have made.

You may be required to purchase a minimum quantity of the product on a regular basis before you start to qualify for commissions or even before you can become an affiliate.You may not get the technical or affiliate support you might expect from the company. This may be due to in adequate staffing, or the company's negligence.
Other people in your downline do nothing to promote the program.

At least four of the above limitations can be overcome with a little time and effort. You could, for example, come upwith fresher ads to promote the program (provided this isallowed).
If the company supplies the email addresses of people in your downline, then you could offer to help the less active members. Very often these people are passive not because they are lazy or apathetic but merely because they don't know HOW to promote effectively!

your guidance could mean the difference between no sales or referrals and healthy downlines and residual incomes. As regards promoting your actual page, here are a couple of little tricks that should overcome a number of restrictions:

Cloak your Affiliate URL to stop hijackers Affiliate Masker While this will not help you to get listed on the major Search Engines, it will make your web page easier for prospects to remember and type into their browser's address bar.

Go to your affiliate page. Place your mouse pointer anywhere on the page and right click once. In the drop-down box choose "View Source". This will display the HTML for the page. Save this to your hard drive as a HTML document using the "Save As" function. Upload the page to your web site.If you don't have a web site then get some free web space from one of these:

http://www.tripod.com/http://www.fortunecity.com/http://www.hypermart.net/index.gsphttp://www.coolchat.com/http://www.crosswinds.net/http://www.htmlpublishing.com/http://www.freehomepages.com/http://www.pageproducer.com/

Submit your 'new' page to the Search Engines. You are alsonow able to place banner codes, links, images, testimonials,in fact anything you want onto these pages, because you are in control of the HTML. A word of caution, though. Don'tchange the actual HTML of your original affiliate page. Just put the other stuff, like banners etc, around it.
Making this "mirror page" of your affiliate page will dramatically improve your advertising options.

JIKA ANDA SUNGGUH-SUNGGUH INGIN KAYA (HOW TO GET RICH)

Kata kuncinya: MILIKI BISNIS SENDIRI.

Tak jadi soal apakah anda memulainya dengan modal dengkul alias dari nol yang penting ada keberanian untuk memulai dan secara konsisten memperjuangkannya.
Bisnis dalam arti seluas-luasnya telah membuktikan bisa membuat orang kaya. Lihat: 40 ORANG TERKAYA DI INDONESIA. Dari mulai bisnis Jasa, Manufacturing, Properti, Komoditi dll hingga BISNIS ONLINE. Pelajari disini.

Namun bagi pebisnis pemula....................

Ingat, bisnis merupakan salah satu cara untuk menghasilkan arus kas (cash flow) yang cepat. Brad Sugars menekankan bagi pebisnis pemula untuk fokus sebagai Cash Generator dan jangan banyak-banyak investasi di asset terlebih dahulu.

Cash Flow ibarat aliran dalam tubuh, kalau alirannya lancar maka pertumbuhan tubuh akan kuat. Sementara kalau kita buru-buru investasi di aset sama saja tubuh kita cepat besar tapi aliran darah sangat sedikit, akibatnya akan lemas dan mudah pingsan. Kalau Cash Flow sudah berlimpahan baru kita investasi di Asset.

Nah, HOW TO GET RICH......?????

Robert T. Kyosaki dalam bukunya yang jadi best seller versi New York Times "Rich Dad Poor Dad" menguraikan dasar pemikirannya: Bahwa jabatan, karir, maupun kepandaian, tidak bisa menjamin seseorang menjadi kaya. Itu sebabnya, menurut Kyosaki, konsep pendidikan yang menekankan bahwa "anak sekolah harus pintar" harus diubah secara total. Hal ini agar kita tidak terkurung dalam rat race kehidupan yang tak cerdas.

Alasan Utama orang bersusah payah secara finansial adalah karena mereka menghabiskan waktu bertahun-tahun di sekolah, tetapi tidak belajar apapun mengenai uang. Hasilnya adalah orang bekerja untuk mendapatkan uang, tetapi tidak pernah belajar agar uang bekerja untuk mereka.
Kiat yang dapat diaplikasikan untuk menjadi orang kaya

1. Orang kaya tidak bekerja untuk uang.
Ini bisa jadi cara yang efektif untuk menghindari kemiskinan. Sebab, kata Kyosaki, orang miskin tidak memiliki kebebasan finansial dalam hidupnya. Penghasilannya selalu habis untuk membiayai kewajibannya.

2. Penguasaan atas empat konsep bisnis.
Yaitu pemasukan, pengeluaran, neraca asset, dan liabillities.

3. Anjuran untuk memulai bisnis sendiri sebagai jalan awal menuju kekayaan.

4. "Orang kaya menciptakan uang.
Disini Kyosaki membahas ihwal "Kecerdasan Finansial" orang kaya dalam mengelola uang. Kecerdasan itu antara lain, dapat membedakan good and bad liabillities, good and bad debt, good and bad expenses, dan good and bad risk.

5. Bekerja untuk belajar, jangan bekerja untuk uang.
Ajaran ini terkait dengan perubahan paradigma era informasi, dari Shool Smart ke School Smart and Street Smart. Artinya, Selain diperlukan kecerdasan akademis, untuk jadi orang kaya dibutuhkan juga "ilmu jalanan" yang tidak didapat di bangku sekolah. Dapatkan disini

Selanjutnya...............

Ada tiga hal yang menurut Kyosaki dapat dilakukan untuk mempertahankan bisnis kita, yaitu dengan menyumbangkan kecerdasan, pengalaman, dan uang anda pada pihak-pihak yang membutuhkan. Yang juga penting adalah bagaimana kita mengarahkan kekuatan diri sendiri untuk membangun sesuatu. Kyosaki menjelaskan bahwa semuanya berpulang pada seberapa keras usaha dan kontrol diri anda.

Selamat menjadi pebisnis. Keberanian untuk memulai adalah langkah kecil untuk menjadi besar.
