Step 1: Create a Lead Generation System

It doesn’t matter if you use a squeeze page, a popup, or an exit popover. You NEED something valuable to give your visitors to get them on your list so you can follow up and make more sales. Then you need to split test your opt-in page until you’re getting at least 40% conversion. If you’re not getting that, you need a new lead magnet.

Step 2: Create a Front-End Offer

If you’re an affiliate, you still need to sell your own products so you can  separate your buyers from the rest of your list. Then you can send multiple emails for the same product and automatically remove customers from your prospect list when they buy. You can’t do that if you’re just sending traffic to an affiliate sales page.

Step 3: Set up an Affiliate Program

Unless you want to spend four hours every day just to get a few hundred visitors a week, you need to use leverage in your business. You need to get other people to send you traffic so you can concentrate on marketing. You also need to give your affiliates the right tools and instructions to promote for you. You don’t have to land big JV deals either. You can get a lot of traffic from 100 affiliates who each send you 10 visitors a day.

Step 4: Recruit Affiliates

This is something you’ll do on a regular basis. At first, you may have to swap ads with other marketers to get them to promote. But if you set it up right, every visitor they send you can potentially become an affiliate. Add followups that promote your affiliate program to your subscribers and customers. Add affiliate information to your download pages. Give your affiliates incentives to promote and bring you more affiliates.

Step 5: Add Upsells to Your Offer

At this point, a lot of marketers would create another front-end product. But that’s a big mistake. The biggest cost of any business is the acquisition of customers.  So you want to get the most value from your customers while they’re in the buying mode. You should split-test your offers until you’re satisfied with the visitor value of your site. Then you can use that as leverage to get more affiliates to promote.

Step 6: Add a Continuity Program

Membership sites and monthly services bring in consistent income, month after month. No matter what people say, it does take a lot of work to do it right and keep your members happy. So creating a membership site is something you should put a lot of thought into. And if you already have a customer base, it’s easy to find out what they want – just ask.
