Investment Banking Affiliate Programs
While $100 and a little more in commissions is already very good for an affiliate program, a couple thousand dollars is even more intriguing. One program that offers commissions that high is Artfieldinvestments.com.
Artfieldinvestments is an investment banker that helps companies to go public. There is a lot of money in turning a business into a publicly traded company. But there are many ways to do it wrong and only a few ways to do it right. This
company has experience in mergers and acquisitions, go public services and raising capital for expansion. You'll get paid 10% of the service fee of $25,000 to $75,000. These fees are by the way not even huge, if you compare them to the money that is made when a company goes public. A pure profit of several millions to tens of millions is nothing spectacular. How often would you gladly pay $75,000 if you will very likely wind up with $50 million in profit?
Anyhow, now comes the main point: How to promote that baby.
First you build a small website - nothing fancy. A good way to go about it is to use blogger.com as a host. This has several advantages:
1. Hosting a web site on Blogger.com is dirt cheap, actually it's free.
2. Google, like every mom, loves her children. Blogger.com happens to be owned by Google. That means Google will make sure that you'll get some visitors to your site.
It's not that all is positive though. If you don't play by Google's rules, they will yank your site faster than you can blink.
Usually all the blogs on Blogger.com look kind of stale and you can easily tell that it is a free blog.
There is a WSO that shows you how to build a nice web site using blogger within 15 minutes: Build a Professional-Looking Free Website in 15 Minutes Using Blogger.
Once you have set up your little site, you put a couple articles on it. These articles are about going public, mergers and acquisitions, raising capital. Make sure that these articles are high quality. You can find ideas for articles actually on the Artfieldinvestments.com web site.
Below each of your articles you put a signup form for your newsletter, which you have set up at Aweber. Each follow up message is another article about the topic, leading into a soft recommendation of the Artfieldinvestments.com services.
I would invest a few dollars in a domain name. You can then link that domain name to your blogger site. It makes it look even more professional.
Let's say you are not too good at writing articles, you can outsource it. You'll get top quality articles for a few dollars a pop.
Getting visitors and subscribers for your new site and newsletter: You have to be a little creative. You can look for forums in this niche, participate and put a link in your signature.
Another way to drive traffic to your web site or newsletter sign up page is to use videos and tap into the vast amount of traffic that is available for free on Youtube.com
Here is how you can put together a video from the content that you already have. You wrote all these articles for your web site and for your newsletter. You only have to turn these articles into and audio recording and upload it to youtube.com.
Naturalreaders.com offers free software that turns articles into audio files. You can then use Windows Movie Maker, a piece of software that comes with Windows, and turn your audio file into a video. You can for example create slides with a word program. On these slides you just write bullet points of what is said in the audio presentation.
When you upload the video to YouTube, make sure that you use important keywords in your headline. In the description of the video you link back to your newsletter sign up page. You can also make annotations, which again point back to your web site.
Another way to get videos is to use Fiverr.com. On Fiverr.com you can get all kinds of relatively easy tasks done for 5 bucks a pop. There are other services like Fiverr:
