Affiliate Marketing: What It Is
Affiliate marketing as a concept was developed as a way for businesses to promote products without spending vast amounts on advertising. In essence, it is a three-way relationship:
-
The Merchant
A creator, whether a large business or a single individual, provides the product to be sold. They receive profit from every sale made.
-
The Affiliate (otherwise known as The Publisher)
An individual without a product to sell, but with the ability to market the merchant’s product. This party takes a percentage of the profits made from every sale they personally make.
-
The Consumer
The party on which merchants and affiliate marketers rely on. Merchants must provide them with a good product, and the marketer must reach and convert them into buyers.
Why get into affiliate marketing?
Two words: passive income.
Consider a "regular" job: Get up, go to work, make a flat rate no matter how hard you work, go home, and do it all again tomorrow. Now consider affiliate marketing: Set up an initial marketing campaign, engage buyers with your material, and get a cut of the profits with just about no effort from you.
Other benefits include:
Performance based payment
Working on your own time
Working from anywhere in the world
Low levels of investment
No customer service requirements
If there’s one thing you take from this course:
It’s that you can promote anything. But this is what you should sell:
Something you’ve used
If someone asks you how the product works, and you stumble through it, you will lose credibility. And look stupid.
Something from company you can stand behind
Your reputation will be damaged if you are associated with a shady company with no morals. You might not ever come back from that.
Something with a good affiliate program
Why put in so much effort to sell something that you’ll make zero money from?
Something you love
It’s obvious when people are selling something they don’t love. There’s a lack of effort, and a lack of feeling.
Something within your niche
Every affiliate marketer (and every person in general) has a niche, something they know about and can make connections with. Those connections are how you’ll promote your product.
A solid, evergreen product
What’s the point in putting effort into selling something that’ll be irrelevant in six months?

How it Works
A super quick rundown of how exactly affiliate marketing with SYQEL works:
Get your affiliate link.
Everyone who has a SYQEL account is automatically qualified to be an affiliate. Within the SYQEL web app, there will be an affiliate page that has your unique link, a chart for reporting, and a PayPal signup form.
Use your affiliate link when promoting.
Whether you're promoting on social media, your own website, a blogger's page, or anywhere else, use your special affiliate link. The link is attached to you, and that's how the SYQEL website knows that you have referred that site visitor.
Prospective buyers must sign up for a paid subscription within thirty days of clicking on your link, or you will not earn a commission from their purchase. Your link is saved as a cookie on your lead's browser, so SYQEL will know that your lead was sent by you, even if they close the page before buying.
Earn commission when your new lead becomes a happy customer.
Commissions are usually a percentage of a sale, and this is how we do it at SYQEL. Your commission percentage is dependent on how many new people you have converted from potential buyer to subscriber.
