How Much Money Can You Make as an Affiliate Marketer?

If you’re considering affiliate marketing as a profession, the most important question you may be asking is how much money can you make as affiliate marketer?  In truth, affiliate marketing offers unlimited earnings potential.

There are two different ways you can go when it comes to earning money.  You can promote digital products, tangible products, or both.  Digital products include eBooks, video courses and membership sites that can be used online or downloaded directly.

In just about every niche, you’ll find digital products that can be promoted and many have affiliate programs that offer handsome commissions.  But you don’t have to limit yourself to digital products.

You can also promote tangible products through retailers.  For example, many people choose to promote items from Amazon to receive a commission.  There are also many other retailers that will share a commission with you if you promote their products.

Both digital and tangible products have unlimited income potential.  However, you won’t have a huge volume of sales on your first day in affiliate marketing.  It will take time to grow a volume of sales that give you a large income.

As a marketer, you’ll have to decide what types of products you want to promote.  You can promote high ticket items with large commissions, or promote items that have lower commissions, but will sell at a higher volume.

When making that decision, you need to think about your readers and customers.  If you feel that the people on your list will be interested and able to purchase more expensive items, you may want to promote them.

But if you feel that promoting a very expensive product will alienate many of your customers, you may not want to promote high ticket items.  This all comes back to the idea of building relationships online so that you know you customer and you can meet their needs.

With that in mind, you can choose the best products to promote and you can increase your earnings potential.  As long as you promote quality digital or tangible products that will impact your consumers positively, your income potential is unlimited.

But it won’t happen overnight and it takes dedication, thoughtful research, and relationship building to really make the kind of money you want.  The sky is truly the limit.  As an affiliate marketer, you have the potential to make a great income when you choose the right niche, stay committed, and understand your audience.
