The Fool-Proof Strategy To Running Your First Affiliate Promotion

Welcome back to the list building lifestyle. I’m your host, Igor Kheifets. Before we dive into today’s episode, I have to mention the elephant in the room. This intro was recorded using an AI voice that sounds suspiciously like me. If it’s your first time hearing it, head over to Igor dot top slash voice and let me know whether it’s a dead ringer or whether I still have my job. Now, onto the main event. Today’s episode is all about answering the one question that’s on every beginner’s mind. How do I start my first ever affiliate promotion? I know how overwhelming the thought of starting can be. And I know that not having the answer to this very question could be the reason why a lot of you haven’t made the jump yet. That’s why today I’ll simplify the process for you by sharing a simple strategy that is easy to implement foolproof and works regardless of whether you’re comfortable on video or camera shy. I mean, trust me, it doesn’t get easier than this, and it works like a charm. It’s based on the triangle of trust concept that I learned from the legendary Frank Kern and I still always use in my promotions because it’s such a powerful concept. Now without further ado, let’s get started.

What would be a good place to start? Like for your example if you were training me today on how to do my first promo? What should I be doing? Okay, so there’s two ways to approach it. If you’re, if I was training you from scratch today, I’m not sure whether you’d be comfortable getting on video. Now, if you weren’t what I would suggest you do, write the emails and invite people to either a webinar that’s done by the product creator. Or if there’s no opportunity to do a webinar, then just mail to a sales page directly. And I would do that for seven days every single time coming up with a different frame, right every single day, like once a day or twice a day. And I’ll just frame until I find the one frame that hits right. So for every person there are going to be different frames. And that’s if you’re not comfortable with video or building pages. Now if you’re a bit more advanced, and you are comfortable with doing videos and building like super basic pages in something like click funnels, for example, or any kind of any kind of drag and drop builder like WordPress doesn’t really matter what it is, and the page doesn’t even need to be pretty, it can be super ugly. By the way, what I would recommend you do is you would turn your frame marketing into videos. So rather than writing a 500 word email, with your frame and a bridge to a solution, I would do the same thing only I would say it into a camera. Even like this, whether showing my face or doing something like a screen capture doesn’t matter. But I would basically speak out my emails into video. And I would make a call to action in the video to sign up to either go buy the offer, or sign up to a webinar now. Just for the interest of full disclosure, all the promos I ran this year all revolved around a webinar because they all sold the high ticket program. Remember, I’m you know, when I choose something to promote, I want to make sure I’m making lots of money. So I usually choose a high ticket that offers 1000 bucks, 1500 2000 bucks, 5000 bucks. So when you want to sell something as expensive as that, a webinar is what works best. But if I was promoting a $50 item, I wouldn’t do a webinar, I would do frame videos again, like I said three videos. So email to a page that contains the video. And underneath the video, I’ll place a link to go and buy the product. That would be I mean, it would be very simplistic. And this strategy is actually called the triangle of trust. I first learned from Frank Kern, and basically what it states is when I’m having you open your email, and then read the email and click the link and take you to a different media. So remember, email is a media. Facebook is a media. Twitter is a media, right? So I’m having you read it in one media, click the link and take it to another media which is a website, consume my video which is yet another media and then make you go and click on the affiliate link and take you to the affiliate sales page. By the time you’re going to the affiliate sales page, I control your frame and I made you go through two or three different media’s and when I’ve done that, it is so much easier to create a conversion like this could literally mean the difference between getting 1% conversion and 21% Right so I said

Usually the email becomes like the page. And in the email itself, you just kind of type whatever the frame is and stuff. But as far as the pages go, I mean, I’ve all my pages, I mean, even to this day, I do a bunch of these videos. And it’s never nothing more than just a title, a video and a button. That’s it. Like there’s no fancy graphics. There’s no fancy backgrounds, there’s no I’ve tried all the fancy stuff when it’s a ton of work and it never converts more than the regular stuff. So for me, three elements, title Video button, that’s it. So if you’re not afraid of video, and if you’re not afraid of building basic pages, if you are, that’s fine. You just have to make your emails carry most of that level.
