Westerners believe opposites flow in a natural cycle always replacing the other. They tend to look at things as black or white, right or wrong, up or down, giving a separation and unrelated-ness in their perspective.

Chinese view opposites as evolving and cycling. There is neither right nor wrong, but rather there is balance, transformation, interaction and a dependent opposition. Think of it as a duality that cannot exist without both parts.

Now let’s apply this theory to Internet Marketing. When I first came online I subscribed to many Ezines and Newsletters and didn’t always pay attention to the ads, but I did read the articles and editorials. They were my “information hotlines” and why I subscribed in the first place.

It wasn’t long before I discovered ezine article submissions. Here then is the Yin & Yang of Internet Marketing: all publications need content — all content (articles) need publishers. Now I could put the two together in a duality that could not exist without both parts.

So I began to write articles and submit them to various publications. Every article contains a short bio of the author and their business. It also includes a website and email address. What a great way to promote! I began getting more visits to my website and more subscribers to my Newsletter. This became a chain reaction with every new article and every new submission.

But more importantly, the visitors to my website were qualified leads already interested in the subject material of my article. How did this happen? Because my article was chosen by John Doe, publisher after determining that it matched his target market! Auto dealers don’t look for health product articles, right?

When people read a well-written article, they view the author as an expert. Publishers looking for content are no different. Many do not have the time or inclination to write, but they want to publish an expert, not a nobody.

Start putting your website in front of thousands of qualified customers today. You can have:

• infinite promotion of your program

• the position of an expert

• link popularity

• free ad

• more subscribers

C’mon. Try it. Write now.

There are many opportunities to make money working on the Internet. Becoming an affiliate marketer is a great way of having your own online business. Here are ten excellent reasons why you should choose affiliate marketing for your home based business.

1. Be Your Own Boss - What a magical ring that phrase has to it! This is my absolute favourite reason for being an affiliate marketer. Actually, it is my top reason for having any home based business.

2. Low cost set-up - Most affiliate programmes are free to join, so all you need to start your business is an Internet-connected computer and word-processing software. You can work from absolutely anywhere in the world and it makes no difference whether you have a cosy office or work from a corner of your kitchen table.

3. No shipping costs - You don’t need to worry about paying for postage or buying packing stuff such as boxes, wrapping paper, parcel tape, labels and so on. You never have to struggle with carrying heavy packages to the post office. The cost and bother of packing and shipping products to customers belongs to the merchant, not the affiliate.

4. Choice of thousands of products and services - All you have to do is decide what you want to sell (and, of course, what you think people will want to buy), just about everything is available online. With affiliate directories like Clickbank it’s easy to find products to sell.

5. No merchant account or invoicing software required - You can forget the problems associated with invoicing, collecting payments and processing credit cards. The merchant handles all payment processing; as an affiliate, you never have to worry about chargebacks, fraud or losing your merchant account.

6. On sale everywhere - Your sales area has no geographic limits but you don’t have to leave home. You can promote your web site worldwide, every Internet user in the whole world is potentially your customer (and you call this a small business!).

7. High income potential -With your own affiliate business your income level is limited only by your desire and effort - not by corporate salary scale structure or the whim of your boss.

8. No inventory to carry - You can sell any item, large or small without having to worry about storage space. You could sell trucks from a one-bedroom apartment! You don’t have to the worry or expense of insuring stock or having extra security to protect it.

9. Low running costs - Apart from a modest budget for advertising and a small amount to pay for your internet connection, you have nothing much in the way of overheads. You work from home, so the big expense of renting premises is avoided and it is possible to get income tax reductions to cover some things such as part of your electricity and phone bills.

10.Always open for business - As an affiliate, your business keeps running and pulling in profits for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, even on Bank Holidays. You are open for business even while you are asleep. You don’t have to worry about business hours or delivery deadlines, all that proceeds on autopilot. You don’t have to worry about scheduling staff holidays: you don’t even need any staff!

There are now plenty of affiliate programs out there on the Internet.

The good news is… This is the quickest and easiest way to make profits for most online businesses. You sell the product or service of another person and then receive a commission.

The bad news is… Only 10% of affiliates really succeed with such programs!

And I have been too much time part of the other 90% …But not anymore!

Some weeks ago, I decided to apply a reverse-engineering to the successful affiliates.

Yes. I was up to analyze their plans, strategies, blueprints… I had to decipher every method which can make difference between a successful business online and a failing one.

By the same time, I had also checked how failing affiliates do operate. And now I am going to reveal my research results right here and now.

Listen up…

The “Successful Affiliate” Profile:

1. Makes a market research.

2. Promotes HOT products.

3. Collects follow-up information.

4. Takes a systematic approach.

The “Failing Affiliate” Profile:

1. Chooses affiliate programs lightly.

2. Promotes any product, any service no matter the market status.

3. Uses wrong marketing methods.

4. Is a “random marketer” and joins and quits programs at the first failure.

With that said… You probably noticed that all those factors you have control over. And this is really good news! Read on…

Back to basics…

If you have not succeeded yet then you are about to learn a way to put your business on the right path. You will soon use the leading methodology of the super affiliates.

On the other hand, if you are already a successful affiliate then you will discover a wonderful market research tool that will do all of the work for you… And put you in automation heaven!

Enough talks…

Let’s apply the right methodology when promoting products and services. And ultimately make real profits!

Here Is The Most Important Step You Ever Make In Your Online Business:

…The Market Research!

This is the most powerful aspect to consider before you join any affiliate program. The aim of market research is to find out exactly what people are looking for.

What are people’s hot buttons?

What do they want?

What is the less competitive industry?

Who is offering quality affiliate programs?

Where is the HOT selling service?

What is the most demanded product?

Answer to these simple questions and you can be sure that you’ve made much more for your business than any other online entrepreneur. Remebmer the old saying: “Fail to plan and you’re planning to fail!”

It is a fact. You need to become an affiliate of a HOT selling product or service. The products you intend to promote must be proven sellers online. Thanks to the Internet, collecting those information won’t cost you ten thousand to a million dollars!

So how can you perform this research?

The short answer is that… you can visit newsgroups and message boards. You can ask questions to the people there. Think of them as potential customers.

You can also hold surveys and collect information on people’s needs and thoughts.

Affiliate Mate is a brand new software that will Perform Your Market Research …with NO Effort on Your Part! It is a HUGE Money, Time and Efforts SAVER.
