Affiliate Programs

It always perks up a few ears and turns a few heads when an opportunity to earn big by just working at home comes up in conversations. That’s exactly what the buzz is about. The Big Ticket to Wealth is here, bringing with a chance to work as your own employer and at the comfort of your home. You don’t even have to work a lot with this program. All you need is an effective network of contacts and a well-maintained website.

First off, the company is in the business of direct selling. They sell e-books, software products, and manuals. To develop a good Internet marketing campaign, they are establishing a network of members that will sell the products by distributing proprietary Flash videos to advertise the company to specific targeted and interested individuals. The fact that it is aimed for interested individuals already raises the chances of closing a sale.

But first, you have to sign up for membership at the company. You get to choose which of the three packages you will be signing up, namely, the Presidential Package at US$1,997, the Executive Package for US$1,197 and the National Package for US$797. Your choice of membership will affect how you earn through the company. You also have to pay a monthly licensing fee of US$75.

As a direct sales company, you will be earning commissions through the sales your website closes, and for sales made by those you have recruited into the network. You also earn matching override commissions for every recruitment sale that your recruit earns. Commission rates for recruitments sales are as follows: US$300 for every National package sold, US$500 for an Executive product package, US$900 for a Presidential package. This means that, if your recruit successfully closes the sale of any particular package, you get the same commission that he does. You get direct sales commissions as a rebate from the monthly US$75 fee that you pay. For every person you recruit into the program, you get as much as US$50 off the fee for every person you bring into the Big Ticket to Wealth.

Under the program, you can also earn up to US$900 in matching override commissions just for building your own network of contacts that will join the program. If you take a new member under your wing, you get to earn matching override commissions for each new member that he recruits in. For example, National packages earn recruiters US$300 for every member that convinces someone to buy that package. That’s only the National package. The Executive and Presidential packages can earn members US$500 and US$900, respectively. For every sale closed by your sponsored member, you earn the same amount.

What makes the program unique and beneficial for everyone is the fact that they include tutorial materials in their membership packages. These materials can be accessed through a members-only private library. All of these tutorials include the expertise and knowledge of the program’s founder Gerald Van Yerxa, who has spent more than 30 years in a successful marketing career.

There’s a lot of talk about niche marketing on the internet. And with good reason - there is good money in the niches. But only if you can find a “good” niche.

Without getting that right, your online business is not likely to be especially profitable.

===================

So what is a GOOD niche?

===================

What are the indicators that a niche is “good”, which for internet marketers means “profitable”? What should you be looking for when you are selecting your particular niche market?

1. A good niche is one that already EXISTS. That is to say, you don’t have to try to create the demand. It already exists in the market place. You can see it, for example by going to google.com (or your favorite search engine) and searching for the key words Perhaps you can even measure the size of the market. One way to do that is by getting a count of the number of people who have entered the main keywords into a search engine over the last month. There’s no guessing here.

2. A good niche is easily IDENTIFIABLE. Children with asthma is an easy to identify target market, whereas people who rub olive oil onto their potatoes before roasting them would be a lot harder to find. Just for laughs let me go out on a limb here and say that there might be more olive oil cooks than asthmatic children, but where do they congregate? WHERE would you go to meet up with the olive oil cooks as a group? - which is something you must do for marketing purposes. And that leads on to the next point…

3. A good niche is easily TARGETABLE. Young men who ride bikes competitively with their weekend bike clubs are easy to target - through their bike clubs. Home brew fans can be contacted through the suppliers of beer and wine brewing supplies. On the other hand, there might be a huge crowd of people who draw pictures of clouds but how would you find them?

Get the idea?

The big underlying question so far is whether your home business can connect with your market, because you cannot serve them if you cannot connect with them.

Part 2: What is a REALLY GOOD niche?

==========================

4. We can now go further and say that a great niche market is narrow in focus but BIG IN POPULARITY. The more people in your niche, the more profitable it can be — other things being equal (and they aren’t always).

5. Better still, you want your prospective customers to be PASSIONATE.

6. Lastly, for today, you want to be able to reach the people in your market economically, so there is a profit left at the end of the day. If it costs $4 to reach your average customer and then you make $4 from her, that’s not quite what you’re looking for.

Niche marketing is the most targeted marketing there is, and can also be the most profitable. Use the points in this article to help assess any niche you are considering for your home based business.
