Sneaky Affiliate Tricks
It is extremely difficult to get started in affiliate marketing. This is because there are already a lot of people doing it. What you need to do is come up with methods no one else is using. It’s also hard to figure out what to do because there’s a lot of information out there. Here’s one trick that almost no one else is using.
Affiliate videos
No one would deny the power and popularity of video. People love watching videos and that’s why they’re everywhere. Keeping people’s attention is so much easier using videos. So you can put this to great advantage in your affiliate marketing.
Here’s how to use videos for affiliate promotions:
- Record your testimonial
- Do a video walk-through
- Record the order process
- Do a preview video
Testimonials
It doesn’t get any easier than this. Just turn on your web cam and talk. Don’t worry about quality. Just seeing another real person endorsing a product helps your viewers decide to buy. In truth, mistakes and mess-ups just make it more believable. You can literally just press record and talk. And if you don’t want to show your face, use one of the next ideas.
Walk-throughs
This is a great way to promote something without selling it. Make this more like a tutorial helping them use the product. And seeing it being used is a great way to make people want to buy it. If the product is useful, watching the tutorial makes them want to buy it. So just make sure you’re demoing a good product.
Do an ordering video
This one is killer! Record yourself placing an order. There is nothing more motivating than watching someone buy something live. In the first place it acts as social proof. In general people are more likely to something they’ve seen other people do. Second, it builds trust. People believe you’re giving them good advice if you take that advice yourself. And don’t forget about the need to “keep up with the Joneses”. It’s simple – you have it. Now they want it. To really cap this one off, end your video with: You’re gonna have to place your own order if you want to see the members area.
Sneak peak
This one is perfect for building up the value of what you’re promoting. You do a tour of the members area. They get to see everything they’ll receive when they order. This one also helps to remove the skepticism. Once they’ve seen the back-end, they know it’s real.
Anyone can do it!
There’s no technical knowledge required. Some very easy to use programs make the videos for you. The software really does all the work So there’s no need to even think about the technical side. Just focus on the benefits:
- Make more money You’ll earn more affiliate commissions when you add video. Start using videos because people love them.
- Less refunds You’ll lose less of the commission your earn. Now they know what they get before they purchase. So less of them will ask for refunds.
- Beat your competition! Adding video is so simple. But pretty much no one does it. So, you’ll be way ahead of the crowd.
Take your affiliate promotions to a higher level and getting started with this now. The bottom line is that if you’re not using video, you’re losing money.
