Analogy; If I run a donut shop and I sell 10 donuts a day. You come along, promote me, I start selling 20 donuts a day. 30% of the profit from those 10 donuts go to you. Affiliate programs are for large companies. For a small company we can determine the increase in inventory. Maybe paying a website $x,xxx amount to a keep banner on their site.
You are wrong about an affiliate program being for large companies only.
The idea is to transition a small company into a more profitable
company, which doesn't necessarily have to b larger. Affiliate
programs enable this better than anything else that I've
personally experienced.
Affiliate programs are super cheap and do accomplish alot
if you know what you are doing. You can start with less
than $500.00
For one
how do you intend to even begin to appear attractive to a reliable
or competent promoter if you won't even invest in a platform which
provides accountability to the promoters effort and time?
If you can pay a website $x,xxx amount, you can invest a few
hundred bucks to install a reliable low cost affiliate program.
Just my opinion. Otherwise nothing is accountable. I've made
a mint FAST with an affiliate program that I started and
managed myself, and the technology platform cost less than
$500.00
I speak from experience, not from my ass.
Good luck, but you won't make it if you nickel and dime on the
basics.
