What to Do with Your Affiliates
Now we’re getting to the interesting stuff. Affiliates are up next, and after running through the do’s and don’ts of your paying customer base, things start to get a little more flexible here again, for simple reason that the situation is clear cut, and affiliates are more numerous than your long term customer base for example. By clear cut, I mean you know what these people want. They’re here solely to promote a good product, and make good money doing so. You don’t need to carry out any research to confirm that one.
Now, as far as turning your affiliates’ attention to your list, I’m going to advise the same as previously just to make one hundred percent sure no one reading forgets that each of these resources should be a list in itself, with a clear goal, and a clear reason for being there. When you come to mailing them, you need to know what they want from you, as well as what you can give them in return. What we’re not going to be doing in this particular case, is sending random adverts to your affiliates, not even for your products, because, as we learned earlier, they’re more important than even your immediate profit, in fact, they’re going to be the ones bringing in the majority of your new resources together with joint ventures (coming up next in the list).
