Let's start by asking a simple question...Do you enjoy sales?
The truth of the matter is that when many affiliate marketers are asked this
question, they respond with answers like, "No way" or "I can't
stand sales, let someone else do it."
Why is your answer to the above question so important? No doubt you have seen
headlines like the following, which glorify how easy and simple it is to succeed
in business:
"The Ultimate Lazy Way To Start Your Own Business"
"Create Wealth With A Multi-Billion Dollar Industry In Your Underwear"
"Easily Generate A Lucrative Income While Sleeping"
We are constantly being bombarded with these "easy ways" to make a
million bucks. Does success in business actually work this way? Not in reality!
Is it realistic? Not even close!
The bottom line in operating a successful long-term affiliate based business comes down to your
ability to sell your product...period. It doesn't get any simpler than that. You
can either sell your own product or resell somebody's else's product. Either
way, your success or failure will ultimately depend on your ability to market
it. If you don't enjoy sales, you have very little chance creating wealth for yourself.
The most prevalent attitude of many new affiliate business owners is that their
website,
once launched, will miraculously market itself. After all, the website is awesome
and everybody will absolutely, positively want to buy. People should be lining up
to buy, right?
Here is another truth about sales. It will take 5-7 sales attempts to close 80%
of your sales. Yes, you read that correctly. That's 5-7 attempts before people
will say "Yes, I want to buy your product." Running an advertisement
one-time or making a sales pitch to a potential customer once in a while does
not qualify as effort. Hearing that first "no" and subsequently giving
up means the demise of your business and gives someone else an opportunity to
turn that NO into a YES.
What most people don't realize or fail to accept is that it may take weeks,
months or even years to get a product to sell according to your expectations.
You may have to frequently change your sales pitch, web site, advertisement or
even the product until you get it right. This dedication and determination is
what separates the very few successful affiliate based home
business owners from the many
"wannabes" and fly-by-night hopefuls.
The bottom line is that to be successful in ANY home internet business you will need
desire and the ability to sell, and promote.
