    Contact me with the product. If I like the product, then I will become an affiliate for it.

    Yes, you could sign up through clickbank. You first have to get them to approve your product, once they do, others can promote it.

    Depending on the quality of your sales process and content then I would list it in clickbank.com. Tons of super affiliates (including me) browse there daily to see what's hot and what's not.

    Like I said , it is a subscription service related to financials.

    Clickbank seems to be the only program that has affiliates selling integrated into their structure ?!

    Well my only advice to you now is that wherever you list it - make sure you supply a HUGE wealth of information for affiliates to use.

    Remember, these guys have their toes in multiple markets and so will want to know HOW to promote your product in the FASTEST way. Give them the tools so they can just "plug in and play" and you'll get literally hundreds to sign up, I think.

    Isn't clickbank the easiest "plug and play" around ?

    What HUGE wealth are you referring to ?

    Well I'm going to let you into a little "secret" about life. You Ready?

    "Add Value"; "Go Overboard"; "Do More Than What Is Expected Of You"

    In everything you do, and this works extremely well in business, you will see the best results from adding the most value you can. By adding value, I mean "doing more than is expected of you".

    So in your scenario - wanting to attract affiliates fast - it pays to give them a large pool of resources to promote your product with. Now by "large pool", I don't just mean making 100 banner ads to put on their pages - good affiliates are more sophisticated than sticking a plain old banner on their pages. They need creative marketing tools and need them at their fingertips.

    You know your product better than any affiliate will, so give them the tools to promote your product in the easiest and quickest way possible. They're expecting a large return from your product so you better invest your time into making their money making lives a lot easier - so they can concentrate on marketing their site rather than thinking about what to do with your product to promote it.

    Show your affiliates that you actually give a crap about them instead of just sticking up a plain old "get your aff link here" page. Seriously - if you add value in the resources you give the affiliates, word will get around that your affiliate program rocks and you'll get a snowball of affiliates promoting your product.

    I'm saying this as a professional "super" affiliate (I make a ton of money selling other people's stuff). From your replies in this thread, I can see that you want to just get out there and start earning. If this is the case, let me say that going ahead and pushing inferior quality out there will only do more harm than good in this case.

    The more care you take in adding the most value as possible - then ther more results you will see. It's a simple equation - time invested in adding value = more appriciation & more affiliates (& more profit).

    If you're still stuck with what I'm getting at with adding value, look at this website: http://thelazymarketer.com. It's by a super affiliate called Chris Rempel. Mr Rempel, from what I've read, is doing VERY well online selling as an affiliate.

    Now this site is currently converting (according to him) at 1/20. That's 5% which is pretty good for turning cold visitors to customers, believe me. Now if you look at the sales letter - it practically gives away all the content of his book, but it leaves you wanting MORE doesn't it?

    That's because he's added so much value on that page that you see what he's giving you for free and wonder what the hell's in the book that makes it worth $30 (that was meant as a compliment if it sounds confusing). Basically, he draws you in with a sense of safety and humility and makes you subconciously think that the book has so much killer information in because he gives away so much for free on the sales page.

    I've read the book and it's very good as it happens.

    There's some food for thought for you!





    PS. Look at the length of this post. Do you hold me in higher esteem now because I've taken 15 minutes of my personal time helping you out? I've added value here and if you aren't affected by it in any way then I must be doing something very wrong ^_^

    Im going to add to that and say that the site that Peeg mentions works very well and for exactly the reasons that are stated. I personally promote that site as an affiliate and it converts extremely well.
