An Easy Way To Increase Commissions

There are a lot of ways to give yourself a quick “payraise” in terms of increasing your affiliate commissions.

Here’s one of the easiest (hint:  it’s completely under YOUR control!)…

*** Look for Larger Profit-Per-Transaction Offers to Promote ***

It takes about as much effort to find a new customer and persuade them to buy a $10 product as it does to find and persuade a customer to buy a product that’s $100, $500 or even more.

I say “about” because you may find that certain lower-priced products have a higher conversion rate.

Example: Let’s suppose you’ve found various products with 50% commissions. Now consider these figures:

• A $20 product ($10 commission) coverts at 5%. That means that for every 100 people who see the product, five buy… and that puts $50 in your pocket.

• A $100 product ($50 commission) converts at 3%. That means for every 100 targeted visitors who see the product, three buy… and that puts $150 in your pocket.

• A $500 product converts at a scant 1%. For every 100 targeted visitors, one person buys… and you put a fast $250 into your pocket.

See what I mean?

Do you realize the magnitude of this simple change in WHAT you promote? 

Example three from above is 500% more profit for you
than example one for the exact same amount of traffic!

That should get you excited! :-)

And it should also get you thinking about WHAT you’re promoting.  Is it really your best option?

It may seem exciting to pull in multiple orders per day. But if you look at the “bottom line” figures, you may find that certain products put more money in your pocket with the same number of visitors.

That means you need to look for products with higher commission rates
as well as looking for products with higher ticket prices.

In other words, as a general rule “75% commission” is better than “50% commission” and a product that produces “$250” commission per transaction is better than one that produces “$50” commission per transaction.

And if you can find a high-converting, high-ticket product with a high commission rate, hire an accountant because you’ll soon have more money than you know what to do with! 

The point is the same:  your time investment is constant.  The amount of money you make for your effort doesn’t have to be.

Regardless of the sales volume, your activity will remain the same…

• You’ll spend the same amount of time generating traffic. 

• You’ll spend the same amount of time building lists. 

• You’ll spend the same amount of time creating presell content.

• You’ll spend the same amount of time writing articles, posting blog comments, interacting at forums and all of the “marketing” stuff you do.

You’ll just make more money – on average – promoting affiliate programs that offer higher profit-per-transaction numbers.

    Great suggestions. Never looked at it that way. It’s another way at looking at ROI for affiliate products.
