Just do a search in Google to find loads of affiliate programs in all sorts of niches.

Keep in mind that all 3 affiliate programs that you are going to promote all have to be on the same subject, for example, the first program that you choose is an ebook on how to set up Mini Sites.
Then your second affiliate program that you sell could be a members only site based on “how to make money from Mini - Sites”
Your 3rd affiliate program will be a service where somebody creates a network of Mini-Sites for their customers

The first affiliate program you promote will be the one which pays a larger than normal commission on the first sale, anything that is above 50% commission.

Your second affiliate program you join, will be in the “Residual income category”. This type of program will pay you every month someone who stays signed up for the product or service.

The third affiliate program will be a program that you will promote to your current subscriber list, this type of program will have a lower conversion rate, but you should aim at making $80 to $150 commission per sale

Step 2. Create a free Report Series
This step is vital for your Affiliate success, infact if you create a responsive Opt-In list, 75% of your work would be done already.

Creating your free report is easy, find 5 articles on your subject, or create 5 articles your self. This does not have to be a long article, in the region of 500 words. Then send them out your prospects over 5 days using your auto responder. Ensure that these free reports are full of useful information and not just blatant advertising.

Step 3 – Set up your Autoresponder
When the person signs up, they get part 1, then over the next few days they will get the remainder of the course, you can do this either daily or weekly, the choice is up to you.

If your prospect has not purchased from you after your free reports have been sent out don’t worry. The next part is where you will get most of your sales.

The best way to achieve this is to over deliver, by giving them more than what they expect, offer a bonus if they purchase from the affiliate program that you are promoting. Send this message out within a few days after your free report has ended.


Step 4 - Customer list
Once the person has purchased a product from you, remove his name from the prospect list and add it to a customer list. This list is your most important asset, because these people have shown that they are willing to buy from you.

Some affiliate programs will not allow you to see the email address of people who buy from you. That is why when you are giving away your special offer in conjunction with your affiliate program, ask them to send you an email when they have purchased, so you can offer them their bonus items or any extra bonuses that might come up.
