Super Affiliate Training Program
Businesses coming online often labor under the misconception: Build a site and they will come.
When they hear about the power of affiliate programs; again, it's build a referral marketing system and it will work.
Without expert affiliate training and carefully managing their affiliate programs, even the largest will fail.
It is a proven fact that online, the only person competent to carry out successful affiliate training is a super affiliate himself like Singapore's Ewen Chia.
This is a road that must be traveled after the long learning curve has been conquered, because there are simply too many pot holes and roadside ditches to slide into.
These are often the mental barriers and distractions put up by phony gurus who are all trying to sell you the next quick fix, the next revolutionary 'system' or piece of marketing software.
Have you ever counted the thousands of e-Books produced and marketed in this niche? The writer is a member of about a hundred different affiliate programs on The Internet and perhaps three or four of these programs provide adequate training in marketing.
That is not a good showing.
The outstanding trainers include Ewen Chia of Singapore, Russell Brunson and Mike Filsaime of The United States, and Dr Ken Evoy and Bogdan Feidur of Canada.
Some readers may know of other shining examples of great super affiliate trainers and managers.
These are the competition winners and the marketers with astonishing track records.
Smart affiliate program managers forget their egos and have an 'Aha!' experience that goes like this: Aha! This is a win-win situation.
If you make a lot of money, we all make a lot and so I'm going to open the war chest and give you affiliates everything I know and everything I can beg, borrow and buy to make this program work and to make you successful! Abundance awareness and the millionaire mindset then become part of this deal.
Now only an individual entrepreneur can ever think like that.
A Yanik Silver, a Richard Branson, a Russell Brunson.
This last entrepreneur, from Boise, Idaho, impresses with his creative thinking when he decides to deliver an audio training program fully pre-loaded on the gift of an MP3 player! What a stroke of marketing genius! So do you think that regular corporations, coming online and managing affiliate programs could ever match that type of spontaneous, creative thinking? Could these kinds of ideas pass their accounting department's stern analysis or their legal adviser's resistance? There is more chance of walking to the moon.
And that must be how some super affiliates actually feel when they hit their first million dollar year.
The Internet changes in a nanosecond.
Quick reading skills and high flexibility are the attributes of individuals, not of corporations or even of middle sized businesses.
It was a marketing manager at Samsung Electronics who said that speed of implementation, shortest time to market is what has made them so successful.
Google maintains that they first put a product up quickly online, then they let their customers give them feedback so they can improve upon it.
Clearly, these two exceptional giants DO understand The Internet and marketing in the modern age.
The advent of Web 2.
0 and social bookmarking and networking has tested the flexibility of online entrepreneurs massively over the last three years.
Twitter, Facebook and Linked-In all appear to be essential tools in the super affiliate's arsenal now.
But the single most powerful web tool remains the autoresponder when targeted to precise niches and sub-niche groups.
Affiliates need to understand that sort of market segmentation, then to go after these groups, building trust and loyalty and sending them relevant offers interspersed with valuable 'How-to' content.
That, in a nutshell is the method of a Ewen Chia styled marketer, while a Russell Brunson focus is to give away tangible CDs, DVDs, and even mp3 players.
Who can not find that level of generosity utterly irresistible?
