How to Make Easy Money Fast - Affiliate Marketing Lessons Pt. 23 - First Impressions are Everything!

"Easy Money", so called, is made by knowing the right things, or the right people. Possibly both! So now that you've met me, you're troubles are over right? ;) This is the simple truth: affiliate marketing is as simple as having the right product, and showing it to the right people, with the proper introduction. Is the introduction important, you ask? But of course...the entire idea behind having some kind of writing that leads to the affiliate product is that you have to create text that is going to sell. That's what sales copy is...it's writing that makes somebody want to buy a product. If you think there's a certain way to do it, some way that's better than another, you might be disappointed. There are as many approaches to this as anything else in Internet Marketing. That is, pretty much endless approaches...let me tell you about a few things that I learned when I was first starting with Internet Marketing.

Fear, guilt, anger, greed, lust...these are emotions which, when triggered in somebody, are hard to ignore. They can also be connected a very interesting phenomenon known as curiosity. If you can get somebody to become curious then it's likely that you can get them to click the link, and hopefully check out the product. That's why when you type in a certain product into google, let's say for example an Internet Marketing product or an Internet Marketing personality, you will see all kinds of things that are trying to get your attention. For example: "30% off" X, is X a scam?, X ripped me off, here's why....frequently these people are actually selling the product or person they're dissing! They just said those things in order to get your attention and get you to click on their link. Pretty amazing isn't it? But it actually does work. Of course it does, because it make people curious. If they are curious they will surely check out what you are offering, won't they? They will indeed.

If you have ever wondered if Internet Marketing could be psychological, here's your answer, it is, of course. Like everything in Business, and indeed, everything in marketing especially, Internet Marketing is highly psychological. You do not do yourself any favors by not knowing how people will react to your efforts. If you know how they will react, then you know what works and what doesn't. In conclusion, I would advise everyone to take a different approach every time they write copy. You can purchase great copywriting courses online that will help you do this. As a summary, pick several approaches you would like to "try out" and make some pages of them. Make sure you have some way of telling which is which so that if somebody buys, opts in, or some other kind of conversion, you will know on which page it happened and you will be able to see which approach worked for which product. Although this might seem a little detailed and "involved" it is extremely useful. All Businesses do it...and as an Internet Business you will have to also. Or I should say, you get to! It's fun! Testing things and seeing how they work is all a part of the exploration of your attempt to make money online. Don't be afraid!
