Increase Your Affiliate Commission By 1000% With E-mail Marketing - By Joseph Pattison

If you're not utilizing e-mail in your affiliate marketing campaigns, you're costing yourself a fortune. But even if you are, you're probably still leaving money on the table. Here are two ways to skyrocket your affiliate commissions by 1000% or more via e-mail marketing.

1. Give away two or three free items through your welcome e-mail. The first autoresponder installment your new subscribers receive could prompt them to immediately download several free special reports, money-making software programs, free audio, and so on.

Each of these free items should provide helpful information related to your topic, and/or help them solve a particular problem. So how will this help you increase your commissions?

Simple. Just neatly tie in affiliate links to quality products your subscribers may be interested in buying. Never promote a product you wouldn't buy yourself.

Then follow up with them in the next three to five autoresponder installments and make sure they've downloaded the freebies. After you've done so, how you choose to market to your list is up to you. You can promote other products directly to them, or send them an e-course in the remaining installments.

2. Seek joint venture partners from your subscriber list. By simply sending out a mailing to your list requesting correspondence from subscribers who own lists of 500, 1000, or more subscribers, you can leverage these third-party lists for even more affiliate profits!

A great way to do this is to create a free special report anywhere from 5 to 20 pages long, embed it with your joint venture partner's affiliate links, and let them send it out to their subscribers.

Create a short series of e-mails (three to five) for your joint venture partner to send to their list to make sure your free special report gets read.

Make sure your website address is on every page of the free special report. On the very last page of the report, give your readers an offer they can't refuse; some sort of incentive to log on to your website and join your mailing list.

So if you broker a joint venture with someone who owns a list of 5,000 or more e-mail addresses, you should be able to add at least a few hundred more addresses to your own list!

Add your own personal touch to what you've just read, and increase your commissions as well as your list of e-mail addresses over and over again!
