What is a an MLM Affiliate Program? An MLM home business affiliate program is a way for you to earn commissions by referring people to a product. The product can be either a physical product (i.e. juice drink, etc) or an informational product like an ebook. The product you are promoting is not your own, and therefore won't have to provide alot of the sales content and/or back end customer support or service. When promoting the product, you are given a special link to promote. If a customer clicks on the link and buys the product, you get paid. Most affiliate programs will pay you anywhere from 25-75% commissions to promote and refer their products. It's truly a win-win situation for you and the person who's product you are promoting. The company doesn't have to provide additional advertising and you won't have to provide a sales system or customer support. How an MLM Home Business Affiliate Program can help you? You're probably wondering how affiliate products can help you with your mlm business? In order to answer this question, it's helpful if we first address one of the biggest problems Network Marketers face... Positive cash-flow Most Network Marketers (excluding those that never even "try"), savvy as they may be, have trouble staying afloat in their business long enough for their ultimate goal of "massive residual income" to kick in (studies show anywhere from 1-4 years). Most don't have the time, money, or patience to wait that long before showing a profit in their business. The costs associated with being a Network Marketer can be fairly high in respect to upfront commissions earned. Especially after you add up advertising costs, product auto-shipments, and company seminars. Not to mention the fact that most people don't make enough in the business to cover their monthly expenses such as food, clothing, and housing. The solution?... An MLM home business affiliate program. Most affiliate programs, unlike Network Marketing, don't require any monthly fees to be able to promote and earn commissions. You simply promote other people's products and earn a commission on the sale. Because the majority of the products are low cost your close rate will be much higher. You'll be able to get into positive cash flow much faster than trying to "wait it out" until your mlm commissions start to kick in. Leverage Your Efforts With an MLM Home Business Affiliate Program One of the great things about combining Network Marketing affiliate programs with your existing model is more leads. If you promote affiliate products related to Network Marketing, oftentimes those products will contain a lead generation system built into the product. For example: If you promote the Renegade Network Marketer ebook, once someone purchases the book from you, you are given access to their name, phone number, and email address Afterward, you can follow up with each lead and sell your mlm opportunity or other products if you wish. It works great because those who buy the product show they are actively interested in building their mlm. This means they are a highly qualified mlm lead. Your opportunity, expertise, and coaching are perfect "back-end" products.
