Before the era of internet, the sales person have to depend on the telephones and other mediums of informations just to get track with their prospects and the progress of the program.

With the era of internet, what the affiliate marketers do is just to have a good tracking system to track their program and a good email systems to inform theit prospects.

So what are the tools that can be used by affiliate marketers to earn their money online?

Tools No 1: Squeeze Page

Squeeze page is for the purpose to capture the contact information of the prospects. You can offer something valuable in order for your prospects to give you their information.

Tools No. 2: Email  AutoResponder

Email AutoResponder is for you to keep a database of your prospects. Not only that, you can communicate with your prospects if you know how to use email marketing properly.

Tools No. 3: Free Report

A good affiliate marketer will always create valuable report for their prospects. In this way, their prospects will treat them as expert in the field and will become the followers. Besides, the affiliate marketers will be able to earn income if the prospects buy from their link recommended in the free report.

If you are selling normal or master resell rights product, first try to absorb what is being offered in the product. Then, you have to come out with proper what’s-in-it-for-me (WIIFM) factor. Include this in your salesletter and offer this salesletter to your reseller.

My suggestion for you is try to get the private label rights products to market. Before you market the private label rights product, you have to first go through the content of the product. Then, you should try to put some affiliate links in your product. Try to redirect them to your affiliate program or your own website. This will indirectly increase the visibility of you as for branding purpose.

Besides, you can add your own views in your private label rights product. With this way, you can build up your reputation in your field.

1) You don’t need to get out of the house
With the rising cost of fuel, people are starting to favor the joy of working in the comfort of their own home. They do not need to worry about getting caught in heavy traffic, getting stuck at traffic lights, rush hour, road blocks and coming up with lame excuses for being late for work. In other words, your home will be your base of operations and also your fortress of solitude as well.

2) You don’t need paper, pens, make up or even clothes!
Paper is so 80’s. When you can do everything in a paperless environment, you don’t have to worry about where you left your last file. It’s all on the computer or on the net. You can operate your business in your underwear. You do not need to spend a fortune on make up or your aching feet because of wearing high heels. Home businesses may be ‘virtual’ but the money and lifestyle is REAL.

3) You get to outsource
You don’t have to deal with pesky staff. Just operate everything you need from home. You can get writers from India, Philippines, Malaysia or any part of the world. It’s the 21st century and you can connect with the rest of the world from your computer. And best of all, if you don’t like them, you can ‘fire’ them and you don’t ever need to see them again because they are not even in the same country.

4) You can make sales and collect money online
Meeting people in the real world is good, but if you are the shy type who doesn’t like to close a sale in person or collect money from a bad pay master, then by all means, hide behind your computer screen and run an Internet business! Sales letters do a fine job of getting sales and payment processors automate everything by collecting money for you. It’s a beautiful life!

5) You dictate your own hours
Now you can finally talk to your kids late morning or have tea with them. You dictate your time and you dictate your own hours. No longer is one confined to a 9-5 routine and being forced to eat lunch when your ‘boss’ dictates it.

Step No. 1: Get A Debit Card!
You might not be able to get a credit card. However, some banks might provide services for debit card. Debit card is basically the card that allows you to debit certain amount of money in your account and use the amount of money you debited. Then you can use your debit card to pay for your online bill.

Step No. 2: Gain trust from your joint venture
Now you know it is not easy for a young age entrepreneur to gain trust from the other successful entrepreneur. However, this should not be stopping you from keep on trying. You have to clear on your strength and the benefits you can provide for your join venture partners. At the early stage, you might not need to expose your age. Just be confidence on your strength and you will eventually gain trust from your joint venture partners.

Step No. 3: Fear of rejection
First, ask yourself, why you are fear of rejection? Most possible reason is because you are not confidence with your products or not confidence with yourself.

Before you begin selling your product, you have to make sure the product can really create value to others. People will not going to pay you anything if your product did not give benefits to them.

Once you get the right product for yourself, just step out to introduce your product to others. You might get rejection from many peoples. But, who care?! As far as you believe yourself and your product, you will be eventually be able to achieve success and find people who will support you.

Step No. 4: Step out of the comfort zone.
You might think that you are only a student, why bother wasting time learning about Internet Marketing? If you think like that, this ebook is definitely not for you.  Just kidding. I have to make myself clear here that I am not asking you to quit your study! If you know my story, I myself is a pretty good  student in my study. It is just that during my student time I do not have much exposure like you have now to learn more knowledge that will be useful for you. My point is, rather than spending precious time to chat online or surfing, why not learning some knowledge that can bring you extra income.

Step No. 5: Support from the family
As a typical Chinese educated person, I strongly believe if you want to success in your life, you must get the support from your family members. Spend some times to discuss with your family members, tell them what your plan is and how dedicate you are to achieve your goals. Your family members might not agree with you. However, just inform them what you are doing and be consistence on your action plan. Eventually, if you are able to show them the results, they will believe you eventually.

The students now are different from students from decades before. The only main consent for students those days was to study hard and hopefully be able to gain a job from 8 to 5. However, the new generation of students will not only consent about getting a job. They are more consent on what is happening around the world. They have to compete with others to survive in this challenging world.

Take a minute and think about it. How long you use your time on surfing the net? What are the sites that you usually go to spend your free time? There are studies shown that most of the students spend their precious time on email checking, msn messaging, chatting online, and playing online games. At the end, do you think you will get anything useful and beneficial to you? How about I am going to show you how you can spend a few hours a day and be able to get excessive income for yourself?

In next post, I am going to talk about what is the limitation for students that might stop them to proceed with their dreams and goals.

Stay tuned and all the best!

In my latest project, I am having a mission to provide knowledge for students to start their own business. Children is our future. With the growth of internet technology, it is not a dream for students to earn 5 figure income per month. Not to mention that these students still be able to enjoy their school life without worrying about their future. Therefore, for the coming weeks, I am going to talk about how students can learn from internet marketing and start to create their own home business, even they are still in school or college.

Stay tune for the coming series and All The Best!
