How To Make Super Affiliate Commissions How_To_Make_Super_Affiliate_Commissions | Page 8
Okay, I’ve been making you wait long enough. Let’s get into the thing you really want
to know. How much money can you make as a super affiliate? You already know that
there are millionaires out there, making massive fortunes doing this. But, what does
it take to do the same thing? Let’s take a look at a simple formula that most of us
use:
(Traffic) x (Conversion Rate ) x ($ per Customer) x (# of Transactions) = Payday
Yup, there is math, but don’t worry – it’s not nearly as complicated as it seems.
Basically, what you see above is a simplified version of everything we do. The
amount of traffic you get, the conversion rate of that traffic, the amount you can make
per customer and the number of transactions you pull off will equal your total payday.
This is actually a formula I found in a Brad Sugars book from a decade or so ago, but
it works well for just about any of us.
Here’s a simple example of a weight loss website:
• Traffic – 1,000 Hits Per Day
• Conversion Rate – 0.40% (1 in 250 customers buys something)
• $ per Customer - $22.50
• # of Transactions – 1.5 (The number is higher than 1 because you have an
email list that can upsell additional products to prospects later down the line)
Now, put all those numbers into a simple formula, and you get the following data:
•
1,000 x 0.40% x $22.50 x 1.5 = $135/day
Now, while that might seem very straightforward to most of you, the truth is that
many affiliate marketers forget the simple formula. They forget that they need traffic,
or they forget that the traffic needs to convert, or they forget that they can actually
get more than 1 transaction per customer with an email list. Your goal, and what we’ll
work on in the coming pages, is to develop a strategy that allows you to focus on all
four factors simultaneously, keeping balance in your websites at all times. That
balance will be crucial to your bottom line and is what will push you over just about
every other marketer out there (yes, many people do neglect this formula,
surprisingly enough).
And if you’re looking at the sample numbers up there right now and saying “I really
have to get 1,000 people a day to make just $135 a day,” stop and think about it for
just one moment. Consider this. Not only is a 0.40% conversion rate moderate to low
at best, you can have far more than 1 website building those traffic numbers.
In fact, you should count on it. If you build only one website, you’ll never be a super
affiliate. You might eventually snag that traffic, but you’ll never be the top level
