One question a ton of ClickFunnels users (and prospective users) have about ClickFunnels is if it can be used effectively for Affiliate Marketing specifically.
After teaching a couple of awesome courses on Affiliate Marketing, and studying this stuff like my life was on the line, I’m confident that I can say, astoundingly, that yes, ClickFunnels is an awesome tool for Affiliate Marketers.
But maybe you’re not sure how ClickFunnels can benefit you specifically as an Affiliate Marketer?
What’s Your Primary Asset As An Affiliate Marketer?
In my humble opinion, your email list is always going to be your primary asset as an affiliate marketer.
Why is email marketing so powerful, especially for affiliates?
Because your email list will allow you to communicate with your leads, over and over again, into perpetuity.
Without Website Traffic, Affiliate Marketers Are Doomed!
Maybe you’ve been frustrated because you have awesome affiliate offers to promote, and you have the best intentions in the world, but you just have no ability to drive website traffic?
Think about it. Website traffic is one of the top things you need in order to be an effective affiliate.
Affiliate Marketing Sales Are Only Possible When You Have Eyeballs On Your Offers!
Which is precisely why, ClickFunnels is so powerful for Affiliate Marketers; because you can use ClickFunnels to promote your offers, generate leads, followup with your prospects, deliver (and promote) awesome affiliate bonuses, review products, and you can even host automated webinars with ClickFunnels.
So, with ClickFunnels you’ll get a super powerful suite of tools that can help your affiliate marketing gameplan.
Generating Leads As An Affiliate Marketer
Generating leads is vitally important – so you can followup with your new lead, share awesome content, build massive goodwill and rapport (by teaching, helping, and sharing), and you’ll also be able to sell affiliate products.
But, this isn’t possible unless you’re able to convince your prospects to join your email newsletter!
This is best achieved when you have a beautiful lead magnet, in conjunction with an awesome lead capture page.
Easier said than done, especially if you’re not a tech savvy marketing nerd.
That’s the first reason why I can recommend ClickFunnels, because it’s super easy to brainstorm and deploy beautiful looking lead capture pages, share your leads, and start promoting your offers as you build your email list at the same time.
Brainstorming And Delivering Awesome Affiliate Bonuses For Your Promotions
If you have an email list, and you’re promoting affiliate offers, then one awesome tip you should deploy for your next promotion is to simply add bonuses.
Maybe you could create a checklist that helps your ideal audience, a case study that supplements the product you’re promoting, a course that you’ve created, a short report, or even one on one support.
Including a bonus will show to your audience that not only do you believe in the product that you’re promoting, but also that you actually give a damn about your prospect!
But maybe you’re frustrated because you have no clue how to create an awesome video landing page (or text landing page) that shows off your bonus?
With ClickFunnels, it’s super easy to design simple (yet elegant) landing pages without knowing a single line of code.
So you can promote your awesome offers, introduce a few awesome bonuses, and then simply deploy it immediately to your audience.
What About Webinar Automation? Can Automated Webinars Work For Affiliate Marketers?
The best thing about automated webinars, is that it’s a lead generation tool that accomplishes the following:
- A good automated webinar actually acts as a lead magnet, and helps to build your email list.
- Webinars are one of the best “under the radar” selling tools, because you start the webinar by introducing yourself, and of course, sharing some of your BEST content.
- After the content portion of your webinar, it’s super easy to transition into a sales message for your affiliate product, especially if you have a couple of awesome bonuses.
- The best thing about automated webinars, is that you can spend time mastering your perfect sales presentation, and then automate that over, and over, and over, and over.
So, heck yes, automated webinars are awesome, and can be a really powerful way to get more targeted leads, clicks, traffic, and overall interest in your business.
I also forgot to mention (because I am so obsessed and excited about automated webinars lol) that ClickFunnels makes webinar automated super easy.
So your webinar presentations will look great; you can proceed and promote with confidence because everything will actually work when you invite your audience to your online event.
So if you’re at all interested in automating your webinars, then ClickFunnels might be worth checking out.
How To Build Your Email List While You Sell Affiliate Offers Simultaneously?
One of the biggest benefits to being an affiliate marketer, is that technically you never have to create a single product; you can just promote someone else’s!
That also means, that you can focus on creating awesome email list building funnels that not only introduces yourself, but also pitches affiliate products immediately after your end users subscribe.
So, the second your leads subscribe on your lead capture page, you could easily show them a video that introduces yourself, thanks your new prospect, tells them how to retrieve their lead magnet, teaches some awesome content, and then, finally, pitches an awesome affiliate offer!
Creating an advanced email list building funnel, complete with thank you videos and download pages is super simple with ClickFunnels.
The even better part is that their lead capture pages are designed by total marketing geeks, and they have a ton of statistics at their disposal so you can feel confident that the content is based upon sound marketing strategy. 🙂
