What are some of the Best Ways To Attract Affiliates

It takes some proactive effort, my system is...

1. Locate 30 of the top authority sites targeting the same customers (but not directly competitive)

2. Research their lead generation and sales process...how do they get traffic, do they have a newsletter, a blog, etc ...?

3. Find out if they market other affiliate products...the ones that do are likely to be more open to promoting others

4. Contact them making specific reference to something on their site, blog or in a product they have produced...that way you are personally acknowledging their presence rather than just making cold contact. Often, it's even worth buying their product if you really want to get them...it's harder to ignore customers than cold emails.

5. Tell them what your BIG idea is and mention that you have developed a new product - would they mind doing a quick review? Then, if they say yes, send them a free copy and follow up until they give you a review.

6. Once they have given you a positive review, you then mention a super affiliate offer where they can make large percentage for simply mentioning your product or publishing a review. Give them a link to tools so they can see promoting is dead-simple.

7. Better if you can organize them around an event - like a launch - that way they have a deadline for promotion.

Using this approach you ease your affiliate prospect into the decision of promoting for you.

You'll get a much better response, they will be more focused on their promotion and will stick with you much longer than if you contact them cold without having them review your product.
