Your affiliate army that is.
An affiliate army is nothing more than a large number of affiliates who are promoting your product. The great part about this is you as the product creator and owner are able to sit back and do very little work while making a steady income once you’ve done the initial work and set the wheels in motion.
An affiliate army has huge potential, if you have a product that people love and are able to implement you will have no shortage of buyers and affiliates will be happy to promote your product because they know they’ll make sales.
David DeAngelo and his “Double Your Dating” line of products is one example of a fiercely loyal and effective affiliate army. The products cater to men who want to improve their skills in the dating world. The products also are easy to understand and work very well for those who implement the teachings. As a result it is an easy to sell product that affiliates are more than happy to promote.
How does this apply to you?
Well maybe you already have a product you’ve created and are selling on your own. Why not exponentially increase your promotional power? Put it in the hands of affiliates and you will watch your sales soar. It’s a win/win. You make money, and so do your affiliates. They like it because they don’t have to create a product themselves. Instead they can focus on promoting.
In order to make this work smoothly you will need an affiliate and product management system that both you, your affiliates, and your customers will all like.
Have you heard of ClickBank?
ClickBank is a highly recommended service that handles billing, affiliate payments, refunds and many other aspects. You simply sign up for a merchant account on their site and begin the process of submitting your product for approval. Never fear, it’s not THAT hard 
The good part is you have a real live person who will review your product, sales pages and download pages to make sure they are in compliance with ClickBank’s policies.
Once that is all taken care of you are ready to rock. Affiliates looking to promote products in your niche will find yours on ClickBank and begin to promote it. If they do well promoting your product word will spread and more and more affiliates will sign up to sell your product.
Another benefit of using ClickBank is they take care of paying affiliates. That gives affiliates the confidence they need to promote. They know that a 3rd party will be taking care of them and paying what they are due every month on time. Customers like ClickBank as well. They know that the product has already gone through the application process to even be offered for sale. ClickBank also does a great job of handling refunds.
All that is stuff you won’t have to even think about. Pretty cool huh?
