I’ve been lurking on Facebook lately, doing research for my low-ticket funnel. That’s how I came across an interesting new offer for coaches and consultants:
1. We will build out a low-ticket funnel for you, for free
2. We will run traffic to it, for free, using our own money
3. We will drive buyers who come through this funnel to a sales call for your high-ticket coaching or consulting offer
4. We only take a cut when you close a deal
I don’t know how well these guys are doing.
But I do know another company that effectively has this same business model.
It’s a company I used to write copy for back in the day.
They didn’t advertise that this was their business model, but since I was a copywriter for them, I know that that’s what they did.
They started out with real estate investing gurus who had high-ticket coaching programs, and then graduated to more general bizopp coaching offers.
I happen to know that they were making a killing back when I was working with them. They only seem to have gotten bigger since.
My point for you is:
Affiliate marketing is great.
It allows you to promote and profit from offers, without having to go through the massive trouble of creating and delivering those offers.
Affiliate marketing also sucks.
Most of the available affiliate offers are no good, and the few good ones have a ton of other people promoting them.
The solution to this dilemma is to roll your own off-market affiliate offers, like the guys above.
In other words, to find people who have good offers, or the makings of good offers, but who aren’t promoting them adequately, and who certainly don’t have affiliate programs…
… and then make some sort of a deal with them to promote them adequately, using your own skills and resources.
(And better yet, to put yourself in toll position, so you get the unique right to promote this off-market affiliate deal, while others only look on with wonder and envy.)
If this is something that interests you, you can go off on your own right now and start doing.
I really hope that’s what you will do.
But if you want some support and help for this kind of stuff, my best recommendation is the Royalty Ronin community, which in many ways is a community of people who are rolling their own off-market affiliate deals, using various techniques and approaches.
