Affiliate Marketing Tips - How To Pre Sell Products For Maximum Profit by Simon Akers

The reason why super affiliates earn more than other affiliates is because they pre sell products using their own landing pages and they offer something of real value making them different from everyone else.

If you just send traffic to your affiliate link you can still earn a substantial income, but you can dramatically increase your sales and conversion rates if you pre sell the product and generate the maximum profit from the traffic.

There are three ways to pre sell products as an affiliate:

Create A Bonus

The most effective way of pre selling is to create a unique high quality bonus gift such as a report, ebook, audio message, or video tutorial.

This bonus should be closely related to the product you are pre selling so that buyers will find it interesting. It can be a report that explains one aspect of the product in more detail or it can be a video tutorial that shows how to use the product.

There are many possibilities but the key is to create a bonus that adds real value to the product and makes you stand out from the crowd.

If you don't want to create a unique bonus you can also offer products you have resale rights to. This is less effective than creating your own bonus but it still works very well.

Offer A Rebate

Another effective way of pre selling is to offer a rebate by giving money back to each buyer who orders through your affiliate link.

The rebate amount depends on the price of the product, so if it sells for $500 and you earn 50% commission you could offer a rebate of $50 and still earn $200 yourself.

Its not worth offering a rebate if you earn less than $100 from each sale that you generate because you will significantly reduce your profits. Rebates are mainly used for medium and high ticket products that are sold for over $300.

Write A Review

The most common form of pre selling is to write a review of the product. Obviously you will need to actually buy the product yourself and use it before you can do this.

You need to be as unbiased as possible and write an honest review detailing what was good and what was bad with the product and why people should buy it.

You may think that you should only write good things about the product but its actually better to point out the faults because people will trust you more and will know you are giving your honest opinion.

Once you have set up your pre sell landing page you will need to start sending visitors to your website. Using pay per click advertising is a great way to immediately start generating traffic and sales.
