Affiliate marketing is a great way to make money, but most people don’t know how to get started. Is it possible to be successful in affiliate marketing if we don’t already have a huge audience? How can we find brands interested in partnering with us? Is it ever worth recommending goods and services we wouldn’t use ourselves?

On this episode, co-founder of Screw The Nine To Five, Jill Stanton, shares how to make money through affiliate marketing. 

 

In affiliate marketing, you don’t even need to ‘sell’ anything. You’re just suggesting products you love. –Jill Stanton  


Things We Learned From This Episode

 

1. Get an audience (19:48 – 20:42)
To be successful at affiliate marketing, what we need is a group of people who follow us and listen to our opinions. This group doesn’t need to be huge; on the contrary, a small group can be easier to influence.

2. Research and reach out (21:35 – 22:48)
Finding affiliate programs doesn’t need to be complicated. All we need to do is type the product name and the word ‘affiliates’ into Google. However, if we don’t find any results, we can also reach out directly to business owners and ask if they would be interested in implementing a referral fee for any followers we send their way. 

3. Recommend good things (26:37 – 27:19)
Trust is the currency of affiliate marketing, so we should only be suggesting good products/services and ideally, things we’ve used ourselves. Don’t compromise integrity by going for quick cash.
