A high paying affiliate program is a good idea for a number of reasons. Firstly with a high commission affiliate programs, you get paid much larger commissions when you make a sale. This can help you get involved in using paid marketing which is notoriously difficult as a beginner. It’s much more difficult however if you’re using low value products because the margin for learning and error is so much smaller. With high value products and recurring commission products, it’s much easier for a beginner. You can more easily recoup your marketing budget and make a profit while you’re learning.

Without paid advertising you can spend years creating content to no avail. This is one reason why most affiliates quit. They spend hours working at building content but never get anywhere with it!

High Paying Affiliate Programs For Beginners – Multiple Sources Of Income

With most affiliate products, you make a “one time” only commission. This means you need to keep selling products again and again in high volume. If you’re selling physical products, you’ll need to sell many of them because the commissions are considerably lower than with digital items. Amazon, for example pays between 1% and 10% on most of its products. Digital products on the other hand pay much more – typically between 30% and 40% commission.

The most profitable digital products are high ticket items and those which pay out recurring commissions. But the best business model using digital products pays in multiple ways:

• With a product range – multiple items including entry level, mid ticket and high ticket items
• With recurring commissions – software products and membership products for example.

A product range lets you sell a single item as an “entry level” product. This is typically offered at a giveaway price to encourage people on your email list to buy (more on email marketing later). Once they have bought that product, they are automatically offered mid ticket and high ticket items within a range of products designed to help them.

Email Marketing – Why It’s So Important For Beginners

Email marketing is the “ace” card up your sleeve as an affiliate marketer. Since most website visitors will leave without having taken any action, it’s far better to offer something on your site which allows you to collect your visitor’s email address. This is typically some giveaway offer such as an ebook or free downloadable pdf file. On this website, I offer a free video series. You can sign up by finding the form on this website.

Studies show that most website visitors will need 6-8 touch points before they buy anything from someone online. On a website, this is difficult because most will leave without having bought anything, never to return. But if you can collect email subscribers from your website, it puts you in charge of the traffic. To earn traffic from content takes a lot of time and effort. Buying traffic is costly. So collecting email subscribers is the thing to do for those affiliates who are “in the know”.

With email marketing you can build trust over a much longer timeframe than is possible on a website. I’ve had subscribers make purchases through my affiliate links even years after they signed up to my list! That’s just not going to happen from a website alone!

Summary

High paying affiliate programs are the perfect answer for beginner affiliates if you are determined to build an income online. They give you more chance of success than you would have with the standard low paying affiliate products. Ideally choose a high ticket product range with a built in sales team, who can close sales on your behalf. Use products which offer you training and guidance and also pay recurring commissions on your sales.
