The Process of Affiliate Marketing

There are 3 players in an affiliate marketing transaction:

1. The product or service vendor (the person or company that owns

the products)

2. The affiliate marketer (which is you) who promotes the products or

services for an agreed commission

3. The end customer that purchases the product or service

The product or service vendor takes care of the following:

• Product or service creation

• A compelling sales funnel to sell the product or service

• All customer service support

• The provision of unique affiliate links

• The provision of marketing tools for affiliates

• Paying affiliate commissions on time

Your job as an affiliate is to find the customers for the product or

service. You will drive visitor traffic to the offers you promote using

unique affiliate links. The affiliate links are unique to you and will

associate you with any sales made so that you can earn your

commissions.
