Getting Others To Promote You

By: Ron King


You may have discovered that it is sometimes hard to get affiliates to sell your products. If you ask them why, they'll come up with a bunch of excuses. Let's face it, everyone has too much to do in this busy world. Everything else is competing with you for their time, and not just other affiliate programs.

Jimmy D. Brown, one of the top gurus on the Web, does some smart things to get his affiliates to do his bidding. Here are three that will help get your affiliates to start selling quickly:

Give Them A Reason To Act Now And Give Them A Reason To Sell Now

First, give affiliates a reason to take immediate action. You do that by setting a circumstance which includes a deadline. For example, you can do any of the following:

1. Create a product launch.
2. Have a fire-sale.
3. Create a contest.
4. Have a special offering.
5. Proclaim limited supply of product.
6. Change your offer.

Doing all of these should create some excitement about your product. Just make sure that your deal is compelling so that they can't afford want to miss out on it. This gives your affiliates a reason to act now.

Secondly, set a deadline or cut-off date. This is what will get your folks to make sales now.

Make It Easy For Them

The third thing you need to do is to give your affiliates all of the information they need to be successful. You do that by giving them everything they need to sell your product.

Some of the collateral you can provide to help your affiliates be successful, are:

1. Advertisements for your product.
2. Banner ads.
3. Text ads.
4. Product Testimonials.

You want to make it a turn-key system that they can put up in a few minutes. If they have to do a lot of work, they will put it off. If someone else offers them an easier way to get started selling their products, then they will sell those instead of yours.

So always keep in mind that you want to make it as simple as possible for them to sell your products to their prospects. The easier you make it for them, the faster they will promote your product.

Conclusion

Remember, provide your team offers that motivate them to action and set a time limit to motivate them to do something immediately. Then provide them with the means they need to do the job.

If you do these three things, you will indeed have more business because your affiliates will sell more and become more successful. And, the more they sell, the more they will advertise your products. All of that will translate into you being more successful as well.
