Now that you know What Affiliate Marketing IS, let’s get a clear picture of how the DYNAMICS of Affiliate Marketing works.
By understanding the dynamics of affiliate marketing you can get a better sense as to WHY certain things must be done a certain way when building your affiliate marketing business.
But keep in mind, in the end, you are building YOUR affiliate marketing business and how you build YOUR business is totally up to you.
Remember, you are creating a business out of thin air… ONLINE… which is very different than creating a business out of concrete, windows, and doors.
What do I mean?
When you start a physical business on 100 Main Street, Anywhere USA, there will be an actual building with people in it, and also a product or a service that your customers can physically see and touch.
Prospective customers have the opportunity to walk into a physical store and talk to a sales person, and customers will have the opportunity to interact with the people that work there face-to-face and evaluate the business for themselves, along with the products and the services, and there is an opportunity for the store to build a relationship with prospective customers.
This type of physical interaction between the business and the customer is ideal as this can build confidence and trust between the business and the LOCAL community fairly quickly… though success is not guaranteed.
Now, let’s talk about the DYNAMICS of Affiliate Marketing.
When you embark on creating your very own affiliate marketing business, you have some tremendous challenges.
First, no one knows who you are, and Second, you may never have the opportunity to meet any potential customers face-to-face or to speak to anyone at all.
Third, in the beginning, your website or your blog may feel as though you are a set of car keys lost in the middle of 92 acres of tall grass.
With 70 million blog posts posted every single month, no one may ever find your blog or your website in the first place… ever.
Fourth, affiliate marketing is not a unique business opportunity, in fact, over the course of many years, hundreds of thousands of people have tried their luck at affiliate marketing, and most have failed miserably, and some have even tried more than once, and have failed many times over.
Fifth, you are going up against some multi-million-dollar-organizations which have very efficient advertising and marketing dollars invested in their business and have many affiliates as part of their affiliate marketing program, and without a doubt, these major organizations do have some very huge advantages.
And number SIX… with the introduction of Artificial Intelligence (Ai) the competition that has already been fierce in the past, may have placed many beginner affiliate marketers at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.
Now these are some very significant challenges indeed, but none of these challenges are impossible to overcome.
I have said it before and I will say it again… if you want to succeed with affiliate marketing, or with any other type of online business, you MUST become a Digital Marketing Expert, which is not difficult to accomplish, you just have to be willing to do the work.
Affiliate Marketing is a process that takes time, consistency, and effectively executing keyword strategies and algorithm techniques to gain attention and traffic to your Digital Real Estate, and most important, your ability to build trust with your social media followers.
