 What is up everybody, welcome back to the channel. I'm gonna go over some basic affiliate marketing platforms with you, specifically Cartra affiliate marketing and just kind of making money with Cartra. And when you look at all these different platforms you guys, that's what they are. They're just a bunch of different platforms. A lot of them consist of digital products. The most popular platforms consist of digital products. And then you got platforms like Amazon. There's so many different platforms out there, but the most popular are mainly digital products other than Amazon. Amazon, obviously you got a bunch of physical products. But when it comes to digital a lot of it consist of courses. You're selling courses, you're selling informational products. People that are products that other people are producing and creating and you're now able to become an affiliate and market their products. And so you hear me talk about on my previous videos on how fired up I am about digital products and digital publishing and creating your own type of training course. You're gonna see a lot of that. And as an affiliate, if you don't have your own product if you don't have your own digital course then for sure you can go out there and find other people's digital products and just become an affiliate of them, of theirs. And so a huge, huge popular one that you're gonna see really take the industry by storm especially in 2020 and beyond is Cartra. Because the amount of momentum and just excitement behind the entire platform of Cartra, a lot of people are fired up because of the fact that it's an all in one type of platform. Landing pages, email, auto responders, your calendar, your affiliate marketing, video hosting, so much you can do inside of the Cartra platform. But what a lot of people don't really talk about is the affiliate side of it all. Whether you're creating digital products and allowing other people to become affiliates of your product or you're simply coming into the Cartra platform and finding products that you wanna promote. So imagine if you're an online entrepreneur and you have a huge email list and you're in the fitness industry. You can come over here to Cartra. You're gonna log into Cartra. You're gonna click on my affiliate promos at the bottom and then you're gonna click on Marketplace at the top. And in here you can come and look at all these different categories inside of Cartra where you can just find people that have produced already a digital product and now you can get behind it and promote it. And so if you have a huge email list, this is what people do. They're either promoting and sending these offers to their existing email list or they're running paid ads or they're promoting it organically on social media or you're reaching out to people who already have huge lists and you're simply paying them to send it to their email list, which is a huge part of affiliate marketing that a lot of people don't even talk about is being able to reach out to people who already have thousands of people on an actual email list and those people are inside of your niche and you simply reach out to them, pay them to send out one email to let's just say a hundred thousand people on their list promoting your affiliate product. So there's so many different strategies behind it but you gotta know the platform. You gotta know the platform. You gotta be able to grab yourself an affiliate link and send out that type of promotional offer. So in here in Cartra, there's many different categories. So if you're in the health, beauty and fitness industry, you can come in here and find different products that you can start to promote. These products are 10%, 10%, 10%, 50%. You know, here's a product where you can promote and make 50% meal plan bundle. Let's see what this is. Visit sales page. You can come in here and look at the actual sales page and this right here is what I'm assuming is some type of meal plan PDF or maybe it's a training course. In here, we can kind of read about what the actual offer is and see if it's something we can promote. So $30 and that's why, man. Again, I get fired up on creating your own digital product because if you're in the fitness industry or if you're in the health and wellness industry, why not create your own and sell it for 30 bucks? You know, why become an affiliate and make a 50% commission off of 30 bucks promoting someone else's and making a $15 commission? That's why affiliate marketing is cool but I'd rather create my own. Like I'd rather create my own. If I'm that passionate, if I'm that fired up, if I'm that involved in my niche, I'm gonna go create my own. I'm gonna get really good at what I do and create my own product and then allow other people to market it and become affiliates. But again, if you're not that far in your journey and you're like, hey, David, I don't have my own product. I don't have, you know, even the knowledge to put together something just yet, but I'm fired up about fitness. I'm fired up about nutrition and health and so that's what people do. They'll come and find other people's products and promote it. And even though it's not a huge, huge commission, at least it's something and that's online marketing. That's how you kind of get your foot in the door and start to really build your knowledge on marketing and internet marketing and even finding your niche, right? So this right here, this offer, it's 30 bucks and they're willing to pay you 50%. And that's what it says right here. 50% commission off of actually it's right here, the meal plan or 10%, 10%. Actually it's 360 bucks, my bad. It's 360. So I don't know why this is saying 30, but over here it's saying USD 360 and then we look at the page and it says 30 bucks. So whatever it may be, I guess there's different ones. So yeah, there's different plans. Yeah, that's what it is. There's different bundles. And so depending on how well this person has their page and how well they have their system set up, if I come in here and I add to cart, meal plan number eight, maybe there's some upsells, right? And as an affiliate, that's what you wanna look for. So you wanna look for different products, different offers where there's many upsells where you as an affiliate has a chance to make multiple commissions. So if it's on sell for 30 bucks and they're paying me 10%, which is not much, maybe behind the scenes, they have a bunch of upsells. Maybe there's the opportunity to make a monthly reoccurring commission. So maybe this person right here, whoever the creator of this offer is, maybe their whole objective is to get people on a monthly plan and you as an affiliate have the opportunity to make a monthly commission. Those are the products you wanna look for. That's what fires me up about the affiliate marketing side is being able to find products where I can sell it one time and make an ongoing monthly commission. That's why I'm personally fired up about Cartra because I know many, many businesses need a landing page and email Otter Responders software and I'm able to make that upfront commission and that monthly commission because there's a monthly transaction occurring. There's a monthly payment with Cartra for example or with software in general, ClickFunnels, Kajabi, lead pages, these different software, all these different email Otter Responders, there's monthly payments that customers have to pay. And if I was the affiliate that got that customer on it with a lot of these softwares, they pay you monthly commissions and that's why I choose to kind of go all in with Cartra for example, because I'm gonna promote that and get a bunch of people on that and make a monthly commission rather than having to just make a one-time commission on an upfront product like this. But if you're deep into an industry where you can come to these platforms and find a bunch of different products inside of that niche, then you can do it that way as well. Even though you're only making a one-time commission, if they didn't have any back-end offer, you're making a one-time commission, but at least there's many, many different offers inside of your niche that you can keep offering, keep offering and make a pretty good income. And the best way you're gonna do this is you're not gonna just run ads to your affiliate offer. You're gonna run ads to find people that are interested in that niche to build an email list. So if I were you, if you were an aspiring affiliate marketer and let's say for example, you were in a specific niche of let's just say fitness, what I'd be doing is I'd be running a Facebook ad or an Instagram ad or a YouTube ad to give something away for free. Let's say meal plans, let's say this is what we're fired up about. We're fired up about health and nutrition. Let's say that's what we're fired up about, right? Shout out to my boy Mark, he's in the fitness niche, right? So fitness, health, nutrition, if I was an affiliate marketer in that space, here's how I would do it. I would run paid traffic to an offer, my offer, to give away something for free. So this nutritionist designed plant-based meal plans. I would put together, and what you can even do, man, what you can even do to really keep it real is you can go to Fiverr and you can find a person, pay them 10 bucks to put together a simple ebook on nutrition. Like if I came over here and I typed in ebook, let's say I type in ebook, not design, the design's what you're gonna wanna do as well, but let's say we want an ebook writer, okay? I can come over here to Fiverr and there's a link for a 20% off for a discount on your first order in the description. So make sure before you go to Fiverr, click on the link in the description because it's gonna get you a huge discount. I will go shrike ebook, do ebook writing, best business ebook, 30 bucks. I will write ebooks for you with unlimited revisions, 50 bucks. I'd come in here and I'd spend maybe, I'd spend, let's say 50 bucks is the max. Come in here, have somebody do an amazing ebook on nutrition and you spend, let's say 50 bucks. These ones right here, 235, 150, you don't need to spend that much at all. Let's go with a budget of, let's just say 15 to 50 bucks. I would for sure, for sure, spend 50 bucks and come in here and hire a ghost writer to put together a book on nutrition. I will write an ebook or cookbook for you. Look at that, man. I would look at the reviews, 5-star 89, 5-star 11. I would for sure look at the reviews, make sure there's a lot of reviews. You don't wanna get a brand new person and who knows, they could be super good but I want someone with a ton of experience, with a ton of reviews. Look at this, 5-star, I will write your ebook, book or back cover, blurb or description, 20 bucks. 5-star, 200 reviews. I'm looking for someone like that, okay? I'd come over here to Fiverr, I'd have someone put together an ebook for me and I would use that as bait and I would start running Facebook ads to give away a free download, to capture leads. The whole objective is to capture leads of people who are interested in this specific niche. Super easy. Your whole objective, your whole goal is to build a list of hundreds of people, thousands of people that you can go to list from, okay? Now they're opted in because you're giving away something for free. Best way to capture leads. Once you have these people on your email list, then you can come over here to a platform like Cartra or a platform like ClickBank, which ClickBank is the most popular affiliate platform in the world. It's free to sign up and you can come over here and we can look at, let's say we want, let's say let's stick to the fitness, health and fitness. I can come over here and I can get, and I can look at all of these different products all in that specific niche. And I can look at different offers that will be relevant to my list, right? Fitness, cooking, nutrition, whatever it may be. I can come in here and once I have the list, you're gonna start emailing your list. Now you're not gonna email your list a new offer every single day. Sprinkle some value in there. Value email, offer email. Another value email, three days later, an offer email. Two days later, a value email. Five days later, an offer email. And you have all these different offers that you're shooting through your email list. Now I wouldn't be doing that physically every day writing an email. I would simply have an email auto responder set up and I'd have 50 emails in that thing ready to go. So the moment someone opts in, I'm running a Facebook ad to a landing page, I'm giving away a free e-book that I got done on Fiverr. That's my whole bait on how to capture the lead, right? Once I have that lead in the system on the list, I would have it tied to an email sequence, an email auto responder, all done through Karcher. I'd have an email sequence with 50 emails already ready and pre-written ready to go out. And yeah, it'll take you a while to put together 50 emails, for example, but it's worth it. You sit down for a couple hours on a Sunday and you put together a handful of emails to load into your email auto responder. Now every day or every other day or every three days or however you wanna set the times, an email's going out. That is how you automate the entire system. And throughout the days, you're making affiliate offers. People are buying different offers and different programs that you're promoting. Your custom link, see, so in Clickbank, I don't know if I'm logged in, but let's see if I'm logged in. I don't really mess with Clickbank. So in here, I can generate, I can name the account name, but I can generate Hoplink and then boom, is invalid. Okay, so I need to log in. I'm not logged in, but that's fine. Because I don't really promote Clickbank. I don't really promote these offers. I'm not really a huge affiliate marketer with many different programs. I kind of stick to Karcher. That's where all my affiliate marketing is coming from. And then in 2020, I'm gonna start promoting some Amazon only because I'm gonna be reading books. I'm gonna be a bookworm in 2020. I'm gonna probably read more books than I've ever read in my life in 2020. So I'm gonna be doing reviews and things like that and I'll have Amazon affiliate links in there. Not a huge commission at all, but at least it's something. So, but any of these other offers, I don't really offer because I'm more focused on creating my own digital course and selling that because that allows me to make more money. But if you're not creating courses or creating any of your own stuff, this is how you would do it, man. You would still have to start with paid traffic, okay? Because with the paid traffic and giving away something for free, like some type of ebook on that specific niche allows you to find people who are interested in that and it allows you to build a list. It's all about that list, man. It's all about that list. And then you're able to leverage that list through an email auto responder by sending them value-based emails and offers of all these different products that you can get on Cartra or all these different products that you can find on ClickBank or a bunch of different offers that you can find on this other popular one, which is JV Zoo. Or you can come in here to Amazon affiliates and you can type in, let's just say, let's say we're looking for fitness, fitness products. And I can come in here to Amazon affiliates and I can find all these different products on fitness and I can simply come over here, grab my affiliate link and put that into an email, right? Hey, Jason, just wanted to say what's up, how you're doing? Hey, I found, I came across this awesome product on Amazon. You may want to take a look at it. I provided a link, click here, you know? Like emails like that that are automated, you guys, that are sent out because someone four weeks ago saw your Facebook ad and wanted to download your free PDF on the top five ways to lose belly fat in 2020. Like a simple PDF, a simple offer upfront is how you're gonna capture the lead so you can maximize that list with a bunch of affiliate offers in the future. That's how affiliate marketing is done. Again, and if you're not gonna do it that way, then you're going, it's called co-ops. You're going and finding co-ops, which are people who already have hundreds of thousands of people on an email list that you can take your offer, pay them to email it to their list, which happens to be in the same niche and that's how you're gonna do it. But either way, you're paying. You're paying, you're gonna either pay to have someone email it for you on your behalf to their list or you're gonna pay for a Facebook ad to get that lead upfront and maximize through your email list in the future. So the most popular platforms to find affiliate products, you can come in and in here to Cartra into the marketplace for sure and find all these different niches and all these different categories and all these different products. So if I wanna come in here at Home and Garden and look at different products that I can promote in the Home and Garden niche, I can find some products here. If I wanna come to ClickBank and look at different, let's look at the different categories that they have, that's health and fitness. But over here to the left, so many different categories that you can dive into and find all these different products. And in ClickBank, they're all digital products. They're all people that are selling some type of PDF or they're selling some type of digital course and you as an affiliate have the opportunity to make a percentage. But I want you to look at it from a 30,000 square foot or a square foot, yeah, square foot view or 30,000 foot view. I want you to look at it just from a 30,000 foot view. You're running Facebook ads, you're giving out a free PDF, okay? That's how you're building your list. And then over the next few days or few weeks, you have hundreds of people on your list, you have thousands of people on your list and every day someone's getting an email from you. That is the secret sauce, man, it's that list. It's maximizing and leveraging a huge list to send out a ton of offers and you as an affiliate marketer have the ability to make money every day. That's how you're gonna do it, man. You're not gonna grab a link over here and post it on Facebook. Like dude, crickets, like ain't nobody's seeing that, nobody cares, no one's clicking on it. That's not how you're gonna do it, man. That's not how you're gonna do it. You're gonna leverage a list, either someone else's list or you're gonna build your own list by giving away something upfront for free. And my recommendation is coming over here to Fiverr to have someone put together a simple PDF or a ebook for you on your topic. And you could find some amazing ghost writers in here. I will write best styling cookbook and recipe ebook. Look at that, man, 30 bucks. She only has two reviews, so I don't know if I'd really hired that person, but there's so many different people in here that you can find that will do this for you. I will write, look at this, I will write ebook on any topic, 50 bucks. Like come on, dude, like that's powerful. And then after I put together an ebook, I would also come over here and have someone design me an ebook cover, okay? Because that's what you're gonna use online. And as you're promoting your ebook and getting a bunch of people to download your ebook, you want it to look good as well, right? So you'll have someone over here, look at this, man, 4.9 out of over 1,000 reviews, 10 bucks. This guy right here, man, he'll design a freaking, I will design create space cover, I guess whatever the hell that is, create space, Kindle cover and ebook cover. So dude, 10 bucks, and the person designs you a freaking ebook cover, professional looking, best selling cover. You know what I mean? Like that right there is amazing, man. You put your name on it, you put your credentials on it, you put your contact information on it, and that's your book. But most importantly, that is your bait. That's how you're gonna capture leads, man. At the end of the day, it's all about who's capturing leads. He who has the biggest lead list wins, bottom line, man. So I just wanted to share that with you guys. That's Affiliate Marketing in 2020, man. And you can either grab different products from Cartra, you can grab different products from ClickBank, you can grab different products from JB Zoo, you can come over here to Amazon and become an affiliate with Amazon, shit. You can even go to Walmart. Look at this, man, you go to Walmart and you could become an affiliate. You could become an affiliate with a lot of different, a lot of different platforms. Look at Walmart. If we go to Walmart.com, and again, you wanna stay in the niche. So don't come over here and just try to sell a camera. Like dude, it's not gonna work that way. You have to be within a niche and you have to build that list within that niche. But let's say for example, just randomly Walmart, you come over here to Walmart and you can see, let's see if it says it on the bottom, advertise with us, right there. There's advertise with us. And then there is, let's see if it's under advertise with us. Connect with Walmart shoppers at every point. Walmart has changed the way people shop. Your ads should too. We have solutions in you. Launch new products, educate shoppers. Start advertising today. Actually, that's more advertising. They used to have an affiliate link where you could just sign up as an affiliate. I don't know if I'm missing that. Let me see if it's, I know it was up here before. You guys seen it? Our ads, where's that damn thing? I know it's, I know you can become an affiliate with Walmart as well. Maybe it is under advertise with us. But even other brands like Best Buy, let's see if there's a link for Best Buy. I'm talking about big brands, right? Big, big brands. There's BestBuy.com. And before it used to be at the very bottom where you just sign up for free and grab your link. It's all about grabbing your link. And that's why none of these platforms charge. It's all free to become an affiliate on all these platforms. So again, this is the beginner level, man. If you guys are new to online advertising, there it is right there, affiliate program. So you could become an affiliate. If you're in the electronic niche, right? If you're out there doing reviews of cameras and microphones and Xbox and all this shit. Dude, why not become an affiliate with Best Buy and get your own link and start promoting different products on Best Buy? I would do that with Best Buy. I would do that with Amazon. And again, it's all gonna come down to your niche. What is your niche? That's what you wanna look for. And the reason why Cartra is so powerful and are so popular, I should say, and ClickBank is so popular is because they're all digital products. They're digital products versus Amazon and Best Buy. A lot of them are all physical products, right? But either way, man, it's still powerful. But at the end of it all, you need to capture leads. You need to build an email list. That's the bottom line. That's first and foremost. You're gonna need to do that. And the best way to do it is to give away something for free upfront in order to grab someone's interest and have them give you their name and email in exchange for something for free. That's the best way to capture leads, man, is giving up something for free and then just maximizing and leveraging that email list with a bunch of affiliate offers in the future. And the best way you're gonna do that, man, is through an email auto responder. Set up a bunch of emails and have them go out automatically while you're on vacation, while you're at the park with your kid, while you're at dinner with your family, whatever, man. You wanna automate the entire thing and be able to make sales every single day from your email list. So that's how I would do it, man, 2020 affiliate marketing. And again, all these products are all one time. Actually, not the Fiverr one, but let's just say the Amazon, the JB Zoo, the ClickBank, unless you're getting someone on a monthly retainer, then you may have the ability to make a monthly commission, but majority of these products when it comes to affiliate marketing is a one-time commission. So that's why you better have a huge email list so you can constantly be making sales every single day. And my biggest advice to you is definitely find products that have monthly reoccurring payments because if there's a monthly recurring payment, there's a monthly reoccurring commission. And most of those types of products are software, landing pages, email, auto responders, things of that nature. And that's Cartra as well. So with Cartra, for example, I mainly promote Cartra. A lot of people promote ClickFunnels. And why is it? Because there's a monthly commission, right? But in Cartra, I'm promoting Cartra. And here so far in December, this is what I'm gonna be seeing in the month of December as far as my commission, 616. So my monthly commission is definitely starting to grow. And that's powerful, man. That's a monthly check of 616. And so that's not bad, man, to be a monthly commission, like a monthly check that is reoccurring, right? That's powerful, man. An extra 600 bucks a month from reoccurring commissions, that will change anyone's life. I don't give a damn who you are. Like that will change most people's lives, especially in America. I read an article one time where it takes $500 to change the average American's life financially. An extra 500 bucks a month will change most people's lives in America. That is a statistical fact that I read from the Wall Street Journal. And it was about a couple of years back, but I never forgot it. An extra 500 bucks a month will change most people's lives. So this right here, man, to be a reoccurring monthly commission is not bad. Like not bad at all. That'll pay for a brand new car monthly. Like, depending on where you live, that's freaking rent. That's grocery money. That's your freaking light bill. That's your gas bill, right? That's your phone bill. Like, dude, that will pay for so many bills in a household. It ain't even funny. And that's reoccurring affiliate money for you. So that's what I'm fired up on. I'm fired up on the monthly residual income. I don't really care to make a one-time 15 bucks. That's why I don't really go too hard with Amazon because it's such a smaller commission and it's a one-time commission. But again, I'm gonna be reading a lot of books. So why not, why not put a link in the description for what I'm gonna be reading? But other than that, man, I'd rather build a reoccurring commission. I'd rather sell you something one time and be able to make a commission every single month on you. And when it comes to landing pages and email auto responders, if you're building a business, you're gonna keep that. You need that. You need that to build your business. And that's why I love being an affiliate of those types of softwares, right? So that's affiliate marketing, you guys, in the nutshell. And it's kinda how I started my online journey in 2016. When I jumped in and wanted to do everything online, affiliate marketing is where I started. That's kinda how I got my feet wet and started learning about the online game and what it takes to make money online. And as I started doing due diligence and research and really following a bunch of YouTubers, they were all affiliate marketers. And so that's kinda how I started my whole online journey, which was affiliate marketing. And today I'm fired up about digital courses. I'm fired up about social media marketing. I'm fired up about Facebook advertising. And I'm fired up about monthly residual income.
