Ebooks and Affiliate Programs

It can greatly enhance your profits to combine an ebook with your affiliate program. This is because an ebook can act like a viral message. In addition you can also brand ebooks with your affiliate links and make even more money from related products and services to what you are selling.

An affiliate who is promoting your ebook for you can also dramatically increase targeted traffic to your website. This works really well if your message also includes a clear call to action. There should never be any question in your recipients mind as to what to do next in order to order up your product or convert to your membership plan. Avoid making things complicated by adding too many links to the copy.

It is best to keep things as simple as possible. Studies show that most customers look at an offer for about seven seconds before the move onto the next one. This is why your message cannot be vague. You risk losing the customer for good.

It is simple to initiate an affiliate program that has others selling for you. All you need to do is approach a program and be able to show that you can make money with it. Some programs like Clickbank don’t even have a real approval process. You can publish just about any type of ebook you like with them and make a lot of money as the whole process is automated and also a bit anonymous if you want.

Once you are certain your eBook is of value you can explain to the affiliates how selling it will be of mutual profit in an email. You can also provide your affiliates with promotional tools such as banners.

Ebooks are an effective viral marketing tool that can garner you thousands of targeted subscribers and customers. It is an excellent way of increasing sales, referrals and subscribers. The beauty is that it is not even your affiliates that are doing the marketing in this case. The reader simply distributes the sold book to another party who clicks on the links within and you make money as a result!
