I want to talk a little about a business model that is called ‘link sharing’.
Link sharing is a term that I heard the other week to describe a business model which you will have already heard of… affiliate marketing.
I like the term ‘link sharing’ because it is easier to comprehend and feels a lot less complicated than ‘affiliate marketing’.
With the term affiliate marketing, it sounds like you need to be some kind of marketing genius… but that is not necessarily the case.
The truth about affiliate marketing is to simply put the links to specific products in front of other people.
Basically putting it, you are ‘sharing links’.
Every time someone clicks through one of those links and buys a product, you earn a commission… sometimes those commissions can be one or two thousand pounds per sale!
Many people overcomplicate what they are doing with affiliate marketing…
However, it is worth noting that you are not just throwing links on social media and hoping for the best… you do need to add a little content with any link you share.
Some social media platforms do not allow you to post links and others restrict who sees them as they do not want people to leave the platform, but that isn’t a big problem as you can send those people to specific places where they can see your links.
Some people simply use free Facebook groups to share their links into. They grow a large group with several thousand people around a specific niche and share product links into the group.
Other affiliate marketers build ‘review’ sites to which they send people to, where they can access the links.

One ‘link sharer’ who is doing incredible well offers his own ‘extra bonuses’ that do not come with the products he is promoting.
By offering these extra bonuses he is making the product more attractive to the potential buyer who now gets more for his money.
It also stops people who are interested in buying a specific product from going off and looking for it elsewhere.
Sometimes these bonuses are nothing more than an eBook, a video or maybe a combination of both. These can be easily created or sourced.
For example, let’s say that you are promoting a product which pays you £500 in commissions, paying someone £100 to write you a report or create a video or two to go with it as a bonus is not a bad investment if it helps you to generate several sales.
Is it?
If you make them yourself, the only cost then is to your time.
When link sharing, you should be growing an email list or a following so that you can share more links with those who have already bought from you or have shown an interested in what you offer. You don’t want to rely on just people passing by.
Finding products to promote is easy enough.
Affiliate networks such as JVZoo, Clickbank and WarriorPlus are excellent places to find products to promote. Once you have an account and you get your own unique links, you can start sharing them far and wide.
As I say, the best thing to do would be to have your own website where you can add the links along with product details and bonuses, and where you can also grow your own email list so that you can promote more products to those who are interested.
Sharing links via email is one of the best ways to make money, and it is one of the easiest too. It has been tried and tested for many years, and it is how I and many others make thousands of pounds in sales each month.

PS… Writing and sending a daily email to a good sized list is like having your own cash machine. When you send an email promoting a product, you can expect money to come in. You only need a handful of sales a day or even just a handful of sales a week of premium priced products and you are making a decent amount of money each month.
