How Do You Treat Your Affiliates?

Denise Hall If you've been working online for any length of time you
know that one of the best and fastest ways to make money
with your products is to offer an affiliate program.

So let me ask you this - how do *you* treat your affiliates?

You might be asking yourself what I mean. After all, you
offer them a great commission on their sales, and you've
got a terrific product line for them to offer their
customers, right?

But how do you *treat* them?

Do you answer their e-mails when they have questions or
problems? If not, you could be losing some potentially good
affiliates. Would *you* try to help someone make money if
they won't even bother to give you the time of day?

Are they just a number to you?

Do you look at your sales and say to yourself, "Affiliate
#2872 brought in over $1,000 for me yesterday. Cha-ching!
But affiliate #8679 has never made one sale. Too bad, so
sad."

Did it ever occur to you that without these people you
wouldn't be making as much money as you do? You, alone,
can't reach the entire world with your products. Isn't that
why you started your affiliate program in the first place?

Even the woman who only sells one product a year brings in
money for *you.* And chances are, you have several
affiliates like that. So you're making alot more sales even
though each of them may only make one or two.

Maybe affiliate #8679, who has never sold any of your
products, could use a little help from you. You know your
products better than anyone else, so why not give him some
pointers to help him sell those products?

Sorry, but those "canned" ads you supply don't count as
"helping" your affiliates. What I mean is, you should let
your affiliates know you're available to answer any
questions they may have. And then, for Heaven's sake,
answer them! They only want to be treated like human beings.

Helpful hint: in addition to the ads you supply your
affiliates, write a page of tips to help them make sales.

Not everyone can be a "super affiliate" but with some
guidance the "little guys" could probably sell more of
*your* products. It's a win/win situation for both of you.

And more importantly, it builds your affiliates trust in
*you.* The more they trust you and believe in you, as a
person, the harder they'll try to sell your products. And
the harder they try, the more likely they are to succeed.

So, let me ask you again. How do *you* treat your
affiliates?
