[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="660"] Which Affiliate Program Do I Join[/caption]
1. Join a business which offers real and viable products.
How do you know this? Ask a member who is currently working for your chosen company. Many internet marketers can be located on Facebook and would be happy to share any information needed. Go to Facebook and type in Internet Marketing groups into the search engine. There are a lot of active members within the groups on Facebook. Another way is to look up the name of the company in the Better Business Bureau.
2. Join a business that interests you.
It is a good idea to purchase the products first to see if it is something that you would enjoy purchasing. The chances are others will see the value in your products if you do.
3. Join a business that is of high quality.
Make sure they have a good rating with the Better Business Bureau, reputable products and website and professional internet marketers.
4. Join a business that is catering to a growing target market.
Make sure that your company has a lot of products that appeal to a growing target market or a large population. A sign of a good company is that it is continuing to grow.
5. Join a business that pays out a residual income and a payout of 40% or more.
There are many companies; join a company that will reward you substantially for your efforts. Believe me you have to work hard to make sales.
6. Join a business that does not have quotas and sales target which are too difficult to achieve.
Some affiliate programs impose prerequisites before you get your commissions. For example you may have to wait until your account has $20 before you get your first check.
7. Join a business that has plenty of tools and resources to help grow the business in the shortest possible time.
Not all affiliate companies offer good resources; make sure your chosen company does. It will help you achieve your first pay check sooner.
8. Join a business that has a proven system that will allow you to check your networks and compensation.
The company should provide you with a target page and a hit tracker. The target page allows the potential customer to sign up for your program or buy your products. The hit tracker allows you to know which ads are working best for you. This will allow you to know where to continually update your advertisement efforts. Also it is important for the company to readily have your commission statement readily available for you. All of this information should be available to you to check from anywhere at any time.
9. Join a business that has incentives for members to renew their membership each time.
As an affiliate you spend a lot of time recruiting new members and new customers for the company. Your company should give your customers and downline members incentives so that they will remain faithful. There are companies that do.
10. Join a business which has good references.
Be aware of the things that members are not happy about in a program. Again you can probably talk with members on Facebook to find out why the members are not happy. Many affiliate programs need to offer more training than they do. There is just so much to learn that even the best training programs are incomplete. I use many resources to learn about Internet Marketing: other affiliates in my company, Internet Marketing books and advice from other Internet Marketers on Facebook.
I hope you find your ideal business to join. There are many affiliate and network marketing companies available. It is a great field to earn while you learn. Plus it allows you to have a flexible schedule. The best way to start a new career is to have a thorough and intensive knowledge about the affiliate program and network you will be promoting. Make sure you know how to earn your first pay check.
