- 0:04 | and you don’t yet have an audience then
- 0:05 | this video is for you so I’m going to
- 0:07 | cover exactly how to find good affiliate
- 0:09 | offers how to create affiliate content
- 0:11 | that people will actually click on and
- 0:13 | buy things from and near the end how to
- 0:15 | choose the right Niche specifically for
- 0:17 | you based on low competition niches
- 0:19 | where you can actually make money and
- 0:21 | get up to 10K a month and Beyond now if
- 0:23 | you want to join us and learn how we’re
- 0:24 | building these profitable online
- 0:25 | businesses in 2024 click the link in the
- 0:28 | description below we’ll give you all the
- 0:29 | resources just do that now let’s get
- 0:31 | into it so if you’re starting from zero
- 0:32 | there’s a lot of platforms that you can
- 0:34 | add affiliate links to blog post YouTube
- 0:36 | videos social media ads we don’t really
- 0:39 | recommend ads because if you’re a
- 0:40 | beginner I don’t want you spending your
- 0:41 | own money to get clicks on affiliate
- 0:43 | links right that’s a model that works if
- 0:45 | you have super high commission rates and
- 0:46 | you have negotiated deals with affiliate
- 0:48 | managers and you have a a Delta on how
- 0:50 | much money you’re spending but it’s
- 0:52 | harder so we avoid that so first we have
- 0:54 | to understand well how this works and
- 0:55 | find good affiliate offers so there’s
- 0:57 | different components of an affiliate
- 0:59 | offer there’s the commission rate so how
- 1:00 | much they’re actually paying to you so
- 1:02 | if you sold a $500 TV and you got a 10%
- 1:05 | commission rate from the brand that is
- 1:07 | $50 to you right there’s also cookie
- 1:10 | duration so how long after somebody
- 1:12 | clicks an affiliate link can you
- 1:13 | actually make the sale typically that’s
- 1:16 | 30 days Amazon’s more like 24 hours or
- 1:18 | unless they add things to a shopping
- 1:20 | cart so there’s these different things
- 1:21 | and Brands themselves dictate the
- 1:23 | commission rates so a brand like Dick
- 1:25 | Sporting Goods they probably have an
- 1:26 | affiliate manager who runs the program
- 1:29 | helps it out manages these affiliate
- 1:31 | contracts and stuff like that in an
- 1:33 | automated way so really to make money
- 1:35 | with affiliate marketing though it’s a
- 1:36 | numbers game and we need consistent and
- 1:38 | ongoing clicks on affiliate links
- 1:40 | because if we think about it a typical
- 1:41 | e-commerce conversion ratees like 2% so
- 1:44 | to make two sales you need 100 clicks on
- 1:46 | your affiliate links to make one sale
- 1:48 | you’d need 50 clicks so depending on the
- 1:50 | type of content that you’re creating we
- 1:52 | need a lot of clicks if we want to
- 1:54 | actually make 5 to 10K a month so what
- 1:56 | do we actually look for in a good
- 1:57 | affiliate offer right what do we sign up
- 1:59 | for and how can we make money well I’ll
- 2:01 | show you a couple examples first is wpx
- 2:03 | they have a really good affiliate
- 2:04 | program here is uh my dashboard here and
- 2:08 | you can see $31,000 approved 12,000 paid
- 2:11 | so I I can request a withdrawal here
- 2:13 | visitors referred 41 this month 2277 in
- 2:17 | total so it’s really simple you know you
- 2:18 | have your payouts you have referrals you
- 2:20 | have stats you have where you grab your
- 2:22 | link which is here which I’m blurring
- 2:24 | out um but that’s pretty much what an
- 2:26 | affiliate dashboard looks like it’s just
- 2:27 | a place to get your link pasted into
- 2:29 | into content it tells you how many sales
- 2:31 | you made you can also find affiliate
- 2:32 | offers in affiliate networks so
- 2:34 | something like partner stack which has
- 2:35 | tons of software affiliate programs I’ve
- 2:37 | made $1.2 million just from this
- 2:40 | affiliate Network and go to the
- 2:41 | marketplace and see different brands you
- 2:43 | might want to promote so you could see
- 2:44 | like oh hostfully a vacation rental
- 2:46 | property management platform right lots
- 2:48 | of different random uh niches we can go
- 2:51 | after or impact you know you can see
- 2:53 | different action earnings here from
- 2:55 | March of 24 I made like 3600 there so
- 2:58 | we’ll get into exactly how to find the
- 2:59 | affiliate offers for you we just have to
- 3:00 | cover two things first so number one you
- 3:03 | need a consistent content strategy for
- 3:05 | affiliate marketing hands down it’s as
- 3:07 | simple as that so it’s really about what
- 3:09 | type of content can you create in the
- 3:11 | background of your life if you have a
- 3:12 | full-time job over the course of the
- 3:14 | next 30 60 and 90 days to start
- 3:16 | generating sales and making money so
- 3:18 | we’re beginners so what do we create
- 3:20 | well it starts with keyword research
- 3:22 | right we have to actually create content
- 3:24 | around things that people are actively
- 3:26 | searching for online because search
- 3:28 | intent is actual people typing things
- 3:30 | that they want to buy so this is why
- 3:32 | Instagram doesn’t really work that well
- 3:33 | for affiliate marketing they’re
- 3:34 | passively scrolling stuff they’d have to
- 3:36 | click on your post click your bio click
- 3:39 | a link tree link to a page for your
- 3:42 | affiliate offer click the it’s just too
- 3:44 | much so you have to be searching for
- 3:45 | stuff so this is where keyword research
- 3:47 | comes in we need transactional and
- 3:49 | informational uh content in a niche to
- 3:51 | build Authority build a real audience so
- 3:53 | the days of also just like organic SEO
- 3:56 | to an affiliate offer by itself as the
- 3:59 | only source of traffic it’s getting a
- 4:00 | little bit more difficult you can do it
- 4:02 | in certain niches that we’ll cover but
- 4:04 | you need a comprehensive strategy you
- 4:06 | need to build an email list so think of
- 4:08 | any of your content whether it’s a
- 4:10 | website or your YouTube channel you’re
- 4:11 | getting views you’re getting attention
- 4:12 | right well if you’re not doing anything
- 4:15 | with that attention it’s kind of like
- 4:16 | there’s holes in a bucket that are just
- 4:18 | leaking out so how do you plug those
- 4:20 | holes well you put affiliate links into
- 4:22 | them and also you build an email list so
- 4:24 | you put a link to an email list in your
- 4:26 | YouTube description uh with exit intent
- 4:28 | pop-ups and blog posts and you start
- 4:30 | building an email list as a true asset
- 4:32 | giving lead magnets and all that so I
- 4:34 | have other videos on that topic but
- 4:36 | every visitor needs a way to interact
- 4:37 | with you so I get the question a lot
- 4:39 | what is the most profitable Niche what
- 4:40 | am I going to start well if you’re
- 4:41 | starting a business just based on an SEO
- 4:44 | report and something you think you can
- 4:45 | hack your way into it’s not going to
- 4:46 | work in the long term right we need to
- 4:48 | build a solid foundation think about
- 4:50 | what would you actually want to teach if
- 4:51 | your face was on a website not that it
- 4:53 | needs to be but if your brand was on a
- 4:55 | website if it was on a YouTube channel
- 4:57 | what would you actually be talking about
- 4:59 | and teaching and what would you want to
- 5:00 | teach through affiliate marketing
- 5:02 | through all of these different revenue
- 5:03 | streams over the next 1 to two to three
- 5:06 | years right because a lot of videos on
- 5:09 | YouTube are talking about making money
- 5:11 | overnight it just doesn’t really work
- 5:12 | that way you can make a little bit of
- 5:15 | Revenue but you want we want to build a
- 5:16 | sustainable business here right so how
- 5:19 | do you find the most profitable Niche
- 5:20 | well yes and no it doesn’t actually work
- 5:21 | like that you have to find something
- 5:23 | that you actually want to talk about so
- 5:24 | to choose your Niche for affiliate
- 5:25 | marketing we don’t base it on a passion
- 5:28 | right start a blog based on your passion
- 5:29 | and monetize it later that doesn’t work
- 5:31 | because doing your passion and writing
- 5:33 | about your passion are two very
- 5:34 | different things I love running right I
- 5:37 | love running outside listening to music
- 5:39 | I’ve ran a marathon half marathon in the
- 5:41 | past all those things but if I had to
- 5:43 | write about running every single day for
- 5:46 | 5 years I wouldn’t really enjoy it right
- 5:48 | so blogging and YouTube and all that
- 5:51 | it’s work it’s work that you’re doing so
- 5:53 | just because it’s based on a hobby it
- 5:54 | doesn’t mean it’s going to actually be
- 5:55 | enjoyable it might actually ruin the
- 5:57 | hobby because you’re working on the
- 5:59 | hobby right right there’s also a problem
- 6:01 | with choosing your affiliate Niche based
- 6:02 | on an SEO report only so just like oh
- 6:04 | this is a niche with a bunch of
- 6:06 | opportunities now that’s better than a
- 6:07 | passion but also that doesn’t really
- 6:10 | have fundamental business principles it
- 6:12 | says I’m going to base my entire
- 6:14 | business on a single SEO tool and report
- 6:16 | and while you we can all be nerds and
- 6:18 | look in the reports and that’s a good
- 6:19 | thing and to understand them is a good
- 6:21 | thing we need to kind of elevate this to
- 6:23 | if I’m going to start an affiliate
- 6:24 | business I also have to take myself into
- 6:27 | account am I going to be talking about
- 6:28 | some random keyword I found about some
- 6:31 | weird software or some Financial thing
- 6:33 | that I don’t know about your audience
- 6:35 | will be able to spot that from a mile
- 6:37 | away the solution here is that this
- 6:38 | affiliate marketing Niche has to be a
- 6:40 | little bit based on you right I know
- 6:42 | we’re all introverted as bloggers right
- 6:44 | if this is a basically a text based
- 6:46 | business and some niches are harder than
- 6:48 | others so usually it comes down to a
- 6:50 | hobby versus professional experience in
- 6:52 | your Niche so for example you could be a
- 6:54 | web developer who likes fishing so do
- 6:56 | you go after web development or fishing
- 6:58 | well according to SEO reports fishing is
- 7:00 | a lot easier to make affiliate revenue
- 7:03 | on web development’s been around since
- 7:04 | the internet started right so a web
- 7:06 | developer would probably want to go on
- 7:08 | YouTube and teach about the tools and
- 7:10 | things you need and how to do it with
- 7:12 | tutorials versus a Blog whereas fishing
- 7:15 | is low competition in blogging so you’d
- 7:17 | want to do that or let’s say you’re in
- 7:19 | sales but your hobby is crypto well both
- 7:22 | are pretty competitive when it comes to
- 7:24 | Google but crypto would be good on
- 7:27 | YouTube teaching building a Discord
- 7:29 | community that’s how people typically do
- 7:30 | it sales could be YouTube as well or
- 7:32 | let’s say you work at a pizza place and
- 7:34 | your hobby is golf so you want to talk
- 7:36 | about pizza for the next 10 years you’re
- 7:38 | probably not even going to be working
- 7:39 | there right so think about like is your
- 7:41 | professional experience something you’re
- 7:42 | going to be doing for the next 10 years
- 7:45 | is your hobby something you’re going to
- 7:46 | be doing for the next 10 years right
- 7:48 | golf if your Hobby’s golf that’s a lot
- 7:49 | easier of a affiliate marketing Niche on
- 7:52 | Google so you really have to gauge your
- 7:54 | pain tolerance and really just
- 7:55 | brainstorm this in your head what
- 7:57 | professional experience do you have even
- 7:59 | if you have none what interests and
- 8:01 | hobbies do you have because you don’t
- 8:03 | have to be an expert you just have to be
- 8:04 | a step above a beginner so remember
- 8:05 | affiliate revenue is dictated by the
- 8:07 | price of the product that you’re linking
- 8:09 | to and the commission rate so you know
- 8:11 | linking to a $20,000 hot tub for example
- 8:15 | with a 5% commission rate is better than
- 8:17 | linking to a $10 product on Amazon so
- 8:19 | let me show you some ideas of keyword
- 8:20 | Research In Action so if I go to the
- 8:22 | keyword Explorer and I’m going to put in
- 8:23 | best VR because this is going to give me
- 8:25 | all the different things around best VR
- 8:27 | now obviously we know that a lot of
- 8:30 | these keywords like this one here are
- 8:32 | not really the best for affiliate
- 8:33 | marketing maybe they are actually I’m
- 8:35 | just not going to get into it and go
- 8:37 | down that road but we see a CER
- 8:38 | difficulty score here and red orange is
- 8:41 | more competitive so this is a scale from
- 8:43 | 0 to 100 and low numbers are better less
- 8:47 | competition less other sites writing
- 8:48 | about it easier to rank for search
- 8:51 | volume SV is a number of monthly
- 8:53 | searches on Google every single month so
- 8:55 | you can see it’s ranked here by that so
- 8:58 | A good search volume honestly is almost
- 9:00 | anything in here because sometimes new
- 9:02 | keywords that are emerging finding
- 9:04 | affiliate marketing Trends which is
- 9:05 | actually one of the most important
- 9:06 | things is uh they’re not even in an SEO
- 9:09 | tool yet because it’s so new so we we
- 9:11 | just get a good gauge of this now what
- 9:12 | we want to do is drop the keyword
- 9:13 | difficulty down to like five and see
- 9:15 | what we come up with what easier
- 9:17 | opportunities are there so there’s
- 9:18 | things like multiplayer VR games sex
- 9:22 | games uh I’ll have to look up that later
- 9:25 | I don’t know what that is um porn stars
- 9:28 | so a lot of VR stuff you know the
- 9:29 | internet’s based on that but we’ll find
- 9:31 | some other opportunities here so here’s
- 9:32 | an interesting one right best VR headset
- 9:34 | for Sim racing and you’ll see like in
- 9:37 | affiliate marketing there’s so many
- 9:38 | random opportunities you would never
- 9:39 | even think exist people search the
- 9:41 | internet billions of times right like
- 9:44 | there’s so many different random
- 9:45 | products you can write about so you can
- 9:47 | see here this is a pretty good one
- 9:48 | because there’s a low Authority site
- 9:49 | simracing setup.com ranking number two
- 9:52 | for this getting good traffic to it
- 9:54 | there’s also a site with the dr46 Z
- 9:57 | league. and overtake Dogg and simracing
- 10:00 | cockpit. comom with low Dr so that
- 10:03 | that’s really what you’re looking for
- 10:04 | you’re looking for uh the top 10 Google
- 10:07 | results this is what this is and you’re
- 10:09 | making sure that it’s not all dominated
- 10:11 | by like Forbes and New York Times and
- 10:13 | Reddit right you want to find small
- 10:15 | blogs ranking which I would say is a Dr
- 10:17 | under like 50 right CU you can build
- 10:19 | that up over time naturally without
- 10:21 | doing a whole lot to like 30 so that’s
- 10:23 | what you’re looking for and when you
- 10:24 | think about it timing is really a
- 10:26 | crucial component of keyword research a
- 10:28 | new product comes on on the market the
- 10:30 | best AR glasses augmented reality
- 10:33 | glasses and everyone’s going to start
- 10:35 | writing about it eventually right the
- 10:36 | New York Times if it’s technology or
- 10:38 | business or software or something like
- 10:39 | that so if you get in early enough
- 10:41 | though it helps build OTE around that
- 10:44 | content because you were the first one
- 10:45 | in the competition was low you ranked in
- 10:47 | the top five on Google for that you got
- 10:49 | tons and tons of traffic to it which is
- 10:51 | a sign that Google thinks you’re now an
- 10:53 | expert in that area and now over time
- 10:56 | you may drop a little bit while other
- 10:58 | ones come in but you gained so much
- 11:00 | traffic early and you have you know if
- 11:02 | you’ve built topical Authority in the
- 11:03 | right way with lots of content in your
- 11:05 | Niche you can maintain that ranking for
- 11:08 | a while so what you have to do is really
- 11:10 | gauge the niche in general for affiliate
- 11:13 | marketing if it’s like software you’re
- 11:14 | going to see all these things are red
- 11:15 | and it’s competitive vpn’s red and
- 11:17 | competitive lots of physical products
- 11:20 | are going to run the gamut it’s
- 11:22 | somewhere in the middle so like pet
- 11:23 | stuff a little bit more competitive
- 11:24 | Fitness Products a little bit more
- 11:26 | competitive but somewhere in the middle
- 11:28 | outdoor goods a little less competitive
- 11:30 | depending on what it is so for example
- 11:31 | like hiking is somewhat competitive you
- 11:33 | see numbers in the 10 20s and 30s
- 11:35 | there’s a lot of easy lower ones if we
- 11:37 | drop the difficulty again down to 10 to
- 11:39 | see what we could rank for we can see
- 11:40 | things like best hiking shoes for women
- 11:42 | waterproof hiking boots sandals uh lots
- 11:45 | of hiking dogs you know headlamps for
- 11:48 | hiking lots of stuff like that uh
- 11:50 | camping as well like Everyone likes to
- 11:52 | hike and Camp so it’s pretty popular
- 11:54 | Niche right so camping chairs tents
- 11:56 | hammocks if we drop the difficulty down
- 11:58 | we can see that it’s a little bit easier
- 12:00 | to rank for coolers camping CS
- 12:02 | pillows uh SUV for camping camping
- 12:05 | coffee makers tons of different products
- 12:07 | to write about or let’s try something
- 12:08 | totally random best tattoos so like
- 12:10 | tattoo ink numbing cream lots of
- 12:13 | different lotion after care products
- 12:15 | lots of different products related to
- 12:16 | that even so with affiliate marketing we
- 12:18 | find the niche based on best
- 12:20 | transactional keywords related to
- 12:22 | products those are simple list post you
- 12:24 | know the top seven best tattoo numbing
- 12:26 | creams you list them out we’re
- 12:28 | assembling this content I’ll show you
- 12:29 | how to do it but to rank on Google and
- 12:33 | or YouTube for this type of stuff you
- 12:35 | need more informational content Google
- 12:37 | and YouTube they need to see you as an
- 12:38 | expert not a crazy expert but you have
- 12:41 | to have some informational content so
- 12:42 | for example one way to do that would be
- 12:44 | like if we go to tattoo well we know
- 12:46 | what what do most people search for
- 12:47 | ideas right look at the search volume on
- 12:49 | some of these tattoo ideas 263,000
- 12:52 | searches a month these are all pretty
- 12:54 | low difficulties and we can just see how
- 12:56 | we can even drop this difficulty down to
- 12:58 | three under three and see that there’s
- 13:00 | tons of search volume cross tattoo ideas
- 13:02 | family tattoo ideas leg there’s
- 13:05 | literally Taylor Swift tattoo ideas I
- 13:08 | would not get one of those uh 13,000
- 13:11 | keywords that are low competition and
- 13:13 | easy to rank for around that right so we
- 13:14 | have to find what we call an
- 13:16 | informational seed phrase now the seed
- 13:18 | phrase will be different based on the
- 13:20 | niche so if you’re doing tattoos it’s
- 13:22 | probably ideas living room interior
- 13:25 | design ideas right people want family
- 13:27 | room ideas kitchen ideas all of those
- 13:29 | things if you’re doing Fitness the
- 13:32 | informational intent is probably
- 13:33 | exercises and workouts right so you can
- 13:35 | drop the difficulty down put in
- 13:36 | exercises and you see things like long
- 13:38 | head bicep exercises gluteus Minimus
- 13:41 | exercises all kinds of you know 16,000
- 13:44 | easy keywords to rank for in Fitness and
- 13:46 | you can see I put ideas in general in
- 13:48 | here and there’s things like drawing so
- 13:50 | you can think about that acrylic nails
- 13:52 | um different types of things there’s a
- 13:54 | lot of like party birthday party ideas
- 13:56 | party ideas right tons of different
- 13:59 | retirement party teen birthday
- 14:00 | four-year-old 5-year-old 10-year-old 11
- 14:02 | 12 13 14 like there’s so many different
- 14:04 | pieces of content you create
- 14:06 | informationally to bring in a ton of
- 14:08 | traffic to a website and then you can
- 14:11 | monetize with affiliate marketing easier
- 14:12 | because Google’s going to get you this
- 14:14 | easy traffic right step one and then
- 14:17 | you’re going to start ranking your
- 14:18 | affiliate content so you need like a
- 14:20 | ratio of about 80% informational to 20%
- 14:23 | transactional so the next step here
- 14:25 | after finding about 30 or so keywords
- 14:27 | that you think would be good and really
- 14:29 | honing and on what Niche you’re going to
- 14:30 | choose is creating your site and your
- 14:31 | content so you can start a website with
- 14:33 | wpx on WordPress so they’re the best web
- 14:36 | host um they’re one of the sponsors of
- 14:38 | this channel but they’re one I actually
- 14:40 | use really fast sight speed good chat
- 14:42 | support all of that you can use the
- 14:44 | Cadence theme I recommend really easy
- 14:46 | theme that you can add a drag and drop
- 14:48 | editor creating a website you just need
- 14:50 | four core Pages like a homepage and
- 14:51 | about page and then you just start
- 14:52 | creating content um so now with so are
- 14:56 | we have keywords what are we actually
- 14:57 | going to write and how are we going to
- 14:58 | write these things things especially if
- 14:59 | we’re new to affiliate marketing and we
- 15:01 | we’ve never written anything before what
- 15:03 | are we going to actually do so we can
- 15:04 | use a tool like Surfer SEO and Surfer AI
- 15:07 | to create this content so let’s say I
- 15:09 | wanted to create that article on the
- 15:11 | best VR headsets for Sim Sim racing and
- 15:16 | I say I could even create this with an
- 15:18 | AI credit and what Surfer uh AI does is
- 15:21 | they write the entire article for you
- 15:23 | it’s pretty much done as a first draft
- 15:25 | now again we don’t want to just publish
- 15:26 | an AI article we want to add our own
- 15:28 | human take and our you know really where
- 15:29 | you differentiate yourself with
- 15:30 | affiliate marketing is actually having
- 15:32 | some experience with the products no you
- 15:34 | don’t need to buy everything but you
- 15:36 | know if you’re in a certain nich you
- 15:37 | should probably know a little bit about
- 15:38 | it right so what this will do over the
- 15:40 | course of about 5 minutes is actually
- 15:42 | create an article for us now the AI
- 15:45 | credits are like $19 each to write a
- 15:47 | completely SEO optimized article for you
- 15:49 | if you don’t want to do that what you
- 15:50 | would do is just use the traditional
- 15:51 | Surfer SEO tool so here’s my article
- 15:53 | like how to write a blog post it just
- 15:55 | shows you here the content score so you
- 15:57 | want to get a high score on here this is
- 15:59 | the you know this uses AI to tell you
- 16:01 | exactly which keywords to add randomly
- 16:03 | like for example this could have the
- 16:04 | keyword target audience other blog post
- 16:07 | keyword research so things you wouldn’t
- 16:08 | even think of on your own to add into
- 16:10 | the content so any article it’s a list
- 16:14 | right you have an introduction and then
- 16:15 | you have a number of different list
- 16:17 | items as headings so really it’s really
- 16:19 | simple to assemble content in the same
- 16:21 | way if we writing transactional articles
- 16:23 | let me just show you one of mine so
- 16:24 | here’s one of mine on just best webinar
- 16:25 | software and it’s got an intro all right
- 16:28 | intro with a few internal links and then
- 16:31 | it goes into the actual product so it’s
- 16:33 | a simple block layout with the number so
- 16:35 | it says the key here is this is an H2
- 16:37 | heading what is the best and this is
- 16:39 | where you’d put your affiliate category
- 16:42 | right here as an H2 heading and then
- 16:44 | down the list you would have the actual
- 16:45 | list items as H3 headings and the rest
- 16:48 | you just fill in so you don’t need
- 16:50 | anything fancy like this little chart
- 16:51 | here but you have text images showing
- 16:54 | different key features pricing and stuff
- 16:56 | like that and then at the bottom of the
- 16:57 | section for each company you have a
- 16:59 | button and then it’s really just do the
- 17:01 | same thing again do the same thing again
- 17:03 | do the same thing again right seven
- 17:05 | times so we’re kind of really assembling
- 17:07 | this content in the same exact way
- 17:08 | really easy to digest and read we’re not
- 17:10 | writing things from zero right we’re
- 17:12 | just creating simple content probably
- 17:14 | starting in the middle writing about the
- 17:15 | features and things that you know and
- 17:16 | then adding the intro and conclusion
- 17:18 | last so more than anything this is about
- 17:21 | creating a consistent content schedule
- 17:23 | and your actual habits because we can
- 17:25 | always pivot and change and figure out
- 17:26 | our Niche over time but if you’re not
- 17:28 | Crea any content for affiliate marketing
- 17:30 | it’s never going to happen right so
- 17:32 | let’s assume you work 40 hours a week 50
- 17:34 | weeks a year with 2 weeks of vacation
- 17:36 | how much free time do you actually have
- 17:37 | and you sleep 8 hours a night well
- 17:39 | overall even with all of that you would
- 17:41 | still have
- 17:43 | 3,840 hours a year of free time or 73
- 17:47 | hours a week of free time now I know we
- 17:49 | have I get it like we have family
- 17:51 | obligations responsibilities we might
- 17:53 | have kids and making dinner and all of
- 17:55 | those things but out of the 73 hours a
- 17:57 | week can you set aside 10
- 17:59 | for your own business whether it’s a
- 18:00 | YouTube channel a Blog something that
- 18:02 | you’re building for yourself can you set
- 18:04 | aside 10 out of 73 that’s not that much
- 18:07 | when you think about it in the grand
- 18:08 | scheme of things right so you have to
- 18:10 | think about patience I’m not great at
- 18:12 | patience like when it comes to things
- 18:14 | like learning the guitar or learning a
- 18:16 | new language or playing the piano or
- 18:17 | getting good at golf I’m out I’m not
- 18:19 | doing it it takes too long I don’t see
- 18:21 | the results right away right when it
- 18:23 | comes to things that can actually make
- 18:25 | me money and I start seeing the actual
- 18:26 | data and the results early I stick with
- 18:29 | it because I can see the early wins
- 18:31 | right a little bit better than other
- 18:33 | things so you have to be patient you
- 18:35 | have to realize there can be a direct
- 18:36 | financial gain but it happens over a
- 18:38 | long period of time these like creating
- 18:40 | affiliate blog posts or YouTube videos
- 18:42 | is like a digital asset that can pay you
- 18:45 | month after month after month but you
- 18:47 | have to put the work in early on so yes
- 18:49 | it’s going to suck at the beginning yes
- 18:51 | it’s going to be hard but to get truly
- 18:52 | good at something it has to go through
- 18:54 | the sucky part like all of us do to
- 18:56 | start getting better at it you look at
- 18:58 | anyone’s YouTube Channel all old videos
- 19:00 | are not as good as the new ones same
- 19:01 | with old blog posts compared to the new
- 19:03 | ones but guess what you can update them
- 19:05 | as much as you want so the truth is like
- 19:06 | in a video like this it’s like really
- 19:08 | you have to understand all of it before
- 19:10 | even starting you have to understand
- 19:11 | affiliate marketing content keyword
- 19:13 | research the competition what it
- 19:15 | actually takes because you have to
- 19:17 | understand how affiliate marketing works
- 19:19 | and how much money you can make right
- 19:21 | based on the price and the commission
- 19:22 | rate and the competition and the
- 19:23 | keywords before you even choose your
- 19:25 | Niche that’s why a lot of beginners fail
- 19:27 | because they choose a really narrow
- 19:29 | Niche based on a tiny Niche site and
- 19:31 | they realize oh wait this isn’t going to
- 19:33 | work so I’m going to quit so I always
- 19:34 | recommend you base it on yourself you
- 19:36 | base it on a personal brand because then
- 19:38 | you can pivot infinitely it doesn’t
- 19:39 | matter you’re building a digital asset
- 19:41 | even if you don’t succeed with affiliate
- 19:43 | marketing for a while maybe this website
- 19:45 | helps you land a job or it improves your
- 19:47 | career or you can write for a big
- 19:49 | publication or anything right it’s a
- 19:51 | snowball effect of authority that builds
- 19:53 | when it’s based on you and you can
- 19:54 | actually it’s a lot easier to have a
- 19:56 | personal brand that then pivots and goes
- 19:58 | into
- 19:59 | you know secondary platforms once your
- 20:00 | blog’s running and you have keyword
- 20:02 | strategy around affiliate marketing then
- 20:04 | you can pivot to Instagram or YouTube or
- 20:06 | LinkedIn or Twitter or anything else as
- 20:08 | yourself and you can eventually do the
- 20:10 | other revenue streams ads sponsorships
- 20:13 | uh selling your own products building
- 20:15 | your email list all of that so again as
- 20:17 | we said like sometimes the niche is best
- 20:18 | for different platforms so like crypto
- 20:20 | if you love it it’s probably best for
- 20:21 | YouTube and a community fishing gear
- 20:24 | best for blogs and affiliate marketing
- 20:26 | if you’re into AI for business stuff
- 20:27 | probably best for LinkedIn to newsletter
- 20:30 | right so we have to understand how all
- 20:31 | of this stuff works online for us to
- 20:33 | make it work so if you want to unlock
