Making the most of your affiliate marketers

[drakecooper]

Affiliate marketing is one of the best ways to reach a specific audience and get real results with new customers. That is why most businesses work with them. As your business is looking for new ways to expand, consider focusing on affiliate marketing. Specifically, you should focus on the best ways to make the most of your affiliate marketers.

Provide marketing channels

Affiliate marketers need more ways to advertise for your business. According to Marketing Land, the most successful marketers provide complimentary digital marketing channels. Though the article points to the fact that you as a marketer will find more success if you offer many ways for people to find you and check out your business (such as through social media), it is also true that offering more ways for people to find your business will help your affiliate marketers. When recommending a business to someone, it is easier when you can post links to their website and social media sites. Keep these in place to help out your marketers.

Material help

Another great way to help your affiliates is by creating materials for them. When advertising for you, your affiliates have to use something to show off your company. If you provide your own materials, it helps your affiliates spend more time looking for new customers for you and less time creating their own. It also allows you to brand your own materials and have slightly more control over what is on the internet about your company. Creating cool ads to post on the affiliate marketers’ sites is just one of the ways you can provide material help.

Then why have affiliates?

You may be thinking to yourself that if you have great marketing materials and a great website, why would you need to have affiliates at all? The truth is that getting new customers is really tricky, and often times, the best way to get them is through a referral. Pay per call marketers, for example, are telling everyone who they know to give you a call and pick you over other options, and they are reaching people you’d never be able to reach on your own. The materials you are creating help your affiliates out, but ultimately, the affiliate is the person who is going to be bringing you new business, not the materials.

Dear Drake Cooper, thank you for your eloquent reply. I'm still a little confused however as to which affiliate is the best for doom?

[Iommic Pope]

This guy needs to hook up with Crusher and Kusher.
Now THAT is an affiliation for doom.

What happens when we PM the bots? Do they spit out a response?

Also, I'd like to announce that I'm planning to market my affiliation.
That is, if you'd like to pay me for my time, I could, you know, affiliate with you....
I'll put that up in the BST.

a marketing company thought this:
"lets de-humanize the shit out of something,
and then re-humanize it with zero personality,
oh and start off its replys with SIR
everybodys talkin like that in musician forums these days"

i mean whatever so what a bot, right?
but thos other guys are fuckin psychadelic
this dude is boring as shit
if they made fun of those crazy bot jumblers
now that would be good marketing
