  • Learn my 5 step process for how to make passive income with affiliate marketing, PLUS an example with one of my own products!
    Affiliate marketing is incredibly powerful, and extremely underutilized by most brands. I'll show you how to do it right to give yourself the best change for long term, passive income.
    With that said, do realize that although technically affiliate marketing is easy (almost anyone can sign up for Amazon's associates program, for example), it's actually hard to master and get to a point where it can generate significant earnings.
    By putting these strategies into place now, however, you'll set yourself up for success because after you implement these strategies, they become passive money-makers that can continue to earn for you over time, while you rinse and repeat the process with other products in your recommendation library.

    I have to say, being genuine and how you talk about providing value and not just a link and photo, that does make me want to click that link rather than just copy the product and perform the search myself.

    I'll promote my camera gear that I use on UA-cam. I've recently upgraded some gear since I'm doing more and more on UA-cam. Like you mention, it's great to have people see you *actually* using the products. Specifically, it's a Canon T7i and a 24mm f2.8 lens and the Yi 4k Action camera.
    I love the Amazon Associate program myself. And hearing Sean Cannell's story of hitting 6 figures using Amazon on his channel was amazing!

      Sean inspired me a few yrs ago and then again this month, now i'm a roll to start it up again. Glad to be in the same journey with you.

      Cheers for this, I have been researching "who is the best affiliate marketer" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Neyameron Xiydeline Method - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my brother in law got excellent results with it.

    And Now I Am Making Money Also Helping People Also And Teaching Them High Income Skills.

    Thanks, Pat for all you do to educate people that is it possible to start their own online business! I have read your words, listened to your podcast and watched your videos, everything is so informative and has helped me launch my own online presence. Ok, I'm getting off topic, from your question in the video. So, I have a blog post about using alcohol inks on rocks and it kinda went viral for me. I used Amazon Affiliate links for the products I used and even made my first youtube video tutorial (terrifying) and most of my earnings has come from those products. So I am in the process of creating more blog posts and videos (eek!) to generate more buzz to my little niche site. Thanks again for all that you do!

    Hey Pat, I don't know if you read your comments but I love your story. The first time I ever heard of Pat Flynn was on a guest podcast with Noah Kegan, then more recently listening to crushing it by Gary Vaynerchuk. So naturally, I typed Pat Flynn into Google, found your website Smart Passive Income, clicked affiliate, and watched this video. Great work!
    Pat, in response to your question at the end of the video, I am going to try and promote the Amazon Alexa Dot in collusion with a pair of water-proof outdoor speakers. My house currently has an Alexa in every room with a variety of home automation controls. After watching this video I never understood that other people may want to see how the Alexa works in a practical environment, plus selfishly I kind want to show off my setup. I plan on shooting the video this month and when I am finished I will be sure to share a link here.
    A piece of advice, Pat I know you are an expert in all things internet, but I think you would get a lot more comments on this video if your website offered a comment section. At the end of this video you ask for comments in the field below, but if you are on your website there is no field below. To add a comment you have to click the link, leave your site, go to youtube, then leave a comment. Is there any way you could embed the youtube comments section on your site? Just a thought. Thanks for everything you do.
    Cheers,
    Spencer Scott

    Hi Pat! Thank you for this video. Super, super helpful tips and suggestions on how to become a great affiliate marketer.
    I'm promoting the One Funnel Away Challenge, I finished this month's challenge.
    I must say that you, Russell Brunson and Steve Larson have the same mentality about serving people first and providing value.
    I'm using Facebook ads to promote my funnel.
    During the training, I was taught how to create my own offers even though I was promoting a product that wasn't mine.
    Each page, starting with the opt in page, follows your advice about what is the next thing they need to be successful.
    Outstanding video series, I look forward to watching more!

    I am promoting Rooibos tea which is a naturally caffeine free tea indigenousness to South Africa on my AFIB HEART blog, but I see that I can do much more. It is a very inexpensive product, so I do not know how effective it will be to generate a good income.
    Thx again for your free e-books also.

    Thank you for this video. I’ve been in this game for a long time but have only been semi-successful in small spurts (its frustrating!!)
    One question I have: do you recommend sticking with just one product to promote per website (or UA-cam channel)? I wonder if this is where I’ve failed, by promoting too many products.

  • @jeromebrown20
    @jeromebrown20 6 років тому

    Great video Pat, I've actually spoken to youtubers who have created videos on a product I am talking about and asked them if I could feature their video into my blog post. That way they can see a video about a product from a source I trust and in return I link back to that persons youtube channel.This is just until I am at a place where I can create my own videos.

  • @thejasonresnick
    @thejasonresnick 6 років тому +1

    This may be a bit more of an advance Q+A but I'm curious your thoughts on taking the affiliate link and then using a plugin or a URL shortener as the link instead.

    • @patflynn
      @patflynn  6 років тому

      You can do that. With Amazon however there are special rules about not using redirects, but other programs totally allow that. Similar to how if I promote ConvertKit, for example, I always redirect people to SmartPassiveIncome.com/ConvertKit

    • @thejasonresnick
      @thejasonresnick 6 років тому

      Thanks -- I'll have to take a look then -- I've done it with software, but only started with Amazon. I haven't done that with Amazon yet, well mainly because I'm not thinking that they'll move affiliate platforms. Where I've been in the mess with software companies moving platforms.

    Question: believe it or not, the internet / online business lifestyle, is only REALLY just starting to take flight here in the country as attitudes and internet speed has began to catch up. From your POV in the states, (outside looking in), do you think that email marketing software (yay Convertkit!) is absolutely essential for those new people who are just new to online marketing?

    @jeffbarnett261 6 років тому +3

    The only part I am stuck at is obtaining the products for the un-boxing. Because of the expense, this is not my niche but say for example the niche was drones. These devices start off at several hundred dollars and go up to thousands. How would you overcome this with making videos when you are starting out? Simply using still pictures? Not near as exciting I know, but It would be difficult to dish out 500 dollars for a drone just for an un-boxing video. If that was the niche. Any suggestions?? TY. Great video BTW.

    • @patflynn
      @patflynn  6 років тому +5

      You could borrow one from a friend, rent one, or even ask a company to give one a test drive for a review video for a short time. This happens a lot more often than you think!

I only made one sale and they told me I was no longer eligible for the program and have to reapply whenever I get "more traffic" is what they said.

    Serving first in promoting products is always awesome advice! One important word of caution about using Amazon Associate links is to NOT use them in email (or in the RSS feed of your blog posts) as it is a violation of the Amazon Associates Terms of Service. Author Mark Dawson ran into this issue. I learned about this from this blog post: amylynnandrews.com/do-not-put-amazon-associates-links-in-emails/

    Wow. If I knew what product or service to sell myself or promote I know I could make an income. But most of the affiliate products on these sites that sell mostly digital products, they are really bad. And I’ve even bought a lot of them and they are just not good quality. And the marketing is always so false because you don’t ever get what you expect.
