A question I get asked a lot is this one. “Should I sell make money products or non make money products as an affiliate?” It’s actually a very good question. Of course, most of the people asking it don’t realize why it’s a good question. Well, in this article, I’m going to explain why it is and give you an answer to it. It may not be the answer you’re expecting, but it will be the truth.

First of all, the reason it’s a good question is because, believe it or not, there IS a difference. The reason there is a difference is because of the mindset of the consumer. A person buying a make money product is of a different mindset from a person buying a book on how to get back with their ex. But so what? Why does this even matter? They’re both consumers, right? So what REALLY is the difference? Well, here is where the ugly truth comes in. Some of you won’t want to hear this but here goes.

People who are buying non make money products don’t know a thing about Internet marketing. They don’t understand all the tactics and strategies behind the sales pages and all the things we do to push their hot buttons. They just want a solution to their problem. They don’t know from affiliate programs or anything. Therefore, two things are unlikely when selling a non make money product. The one is that they’ll slip in their own affiliate link to get credit for the sale and the other is refunds. If it’s a good product, it’s unlikely that they’re going to ask for one.

In the MMO niche, this is a completely different story. Marketers are slipping in their affiliate links all the time. And the ones who don’t, they know they can get refunds in the blink of an eye without giving any reason at all. It is for this reason that I personally promote more non make money products as an affiliate unless I have some killer bonuses to give away in the process.

Anyway, that’s the difference between the two, and it is a very real difference. This isn’t to say you can’t make good money selling make money products. It’s just a lot easier on the other side of the fence.

To YOUR Success,
