This tip is goes really well with a tip I got from Jimmy D. Brown, which is to focus more of your affiliate marketing efforts on membership sites that pay you a commission every month.
If I was starting over with an online business, I would have built my empire every differently, in anticipation of the days when I would be unable to work.
First, I would have built a better membership than the one I have now, more like the one I used to have.
(Which is why I’m completely revamping my membership site.)
Second, I would have joined and found the most valuable memberships and shared them with my audience.
If you really want to go into detail about this, you should join Jimmy’s blog.
For now, all I’ll say is this. If you sell 200 memberships to a site that pays you a profit of even $10 a month, if you’re like most people, you can quit your day job. If you do that in a month, then do it again the next month, you’re not starting over, you’re doubling your income.
But let’s get to the part about the traffic tip. What’s the perfect traffic tip to complement the membership site model?
Membership sites are a different animal to promote. You can’t leverage the content to promote the site because the content is what makes the site worth paying for access, and most of the great social media and search methods for promotion are based on content. So you can either pay for content, or do this.
As an affiliate, you’ll want to use the micro-tip.
Build content around the topics of the membership sites you want to promote. Find the gap between the knowledge the membership is offering and the knowledge of the newbie, and give pieces of that content away for free as bait to get them to join your content stream.
Then leverage that content stream - free membership site, daily tweets, newsletter, whatever – to introduce them to different membership sites in that area, until they say yes to one or more of them.
This doesn’t always mean a whole article, or even a whole paragraph. Sometimes, a sentence is enough. If I was selling a site with monthly personal development tips, I could pick an expert for that month and quote them.
Mike Dooley says, Thoughts Become Things. I could pop the video about that into my blog with a link leading to his site. (If he had a membership site.)
It can be that simple.
Find a topic, find membership sites in that topic, find micro-tips to lead prospects to sign up to hear from you, then given them micro-tips matched to various membership sites until they join.
