Who is an affiliate marketer?
First and foremost, knowing an affiliate marketing will tell us who the marketer is.
Affiliate marketing is the process of earning a commission by promoting other people’s (or company’s) products. You find a product you like, promote it to others and earn a piece of the profit for each sale that you make.
Here are ten qualities of a good affiliate marketer.
These are:
1. Be Focus:
The first is to be focus in realizing the objective. If not, a marketing will jump from one place or thing to another, thereby jeopardizing the little gains in the time spent on the marketing
2. Have good Marketing knowledge
Possess Adequate affiliate marketing knowledge: Anything done without knowledge is fault, even if it looks good. Knowledge about the following are extremely important:
+ The product to sell
+ The medium of selling (the product site or blog or store)
+ The rule of dos and don’ts of an affiliate marketer
+ How to do a proper marketing to sell
+ How to compile and update client’s list
+ How to make a customer comes back
+ How to turn a customer to one’s marketer
+ Where to sell quickly (website, blog, social media, word of mouth, etc.)
+ and so many others
3. Be a good planner:
Good planning makes god result. An affiliate marketer should have a good plan on what move to make and at what time.
4. Have a good record:
Working without record is working to fail. Record of everything event that happened need be recorded. This is done along with date, time, procedure, effort put into work and the output from effort.
In addition are names of products with specification, price, quality, varieties of qualities, and other information about it. Likewise, names of clients with their contact (email, phone etc), their desired products, etc should also be in record. Note that the record may not be physical, it can be on your phone memory. Forget not to have a back up.
5. Be consistent:
Be consistent. Let people know you are always available for them when they need you. If you disappoint them once by not being available and they test another marketer, that may be your end.
6. Be Sincere and Honest:
As a new affiliate marketer, get sales at initial stage may be an issue. But you can scale through if you have been sincere and honest with your friends and relatives. You need to start from them and the network with grow. Someone that is known as a fraud can hardly get patronage from close people that know him as such. So, stronger reputation gives you an edge over others.
7. Be patient:
Affiliate marketing needs you to be patient as you cannot start and expect income within one week. You need to build a list, develop it and build confidence in people with that list. After that, its endless stream of income.
8. Show love to all stakeholders:
Show love to all, the product, your customer, yourself, other marketers, and to the product owner, the company. This love will keep you going. It’s like that slippery liquid from the snail, without it, it may not be able to move.
9. Be dedicated:
Be dedicated to the work. Do it well always. Money will follow only if you are dedicated. If not, frustration follows.
10. Have Leadership Ability:
Having leadership qualities cannot be underrated. This is another core qualities of a good affiliate marketer.
