video marketing

Affiliate marketing can be very difficult to break into. The reason is because there is a lot of competition. What you need to do is come up with methods no one else is using. It's also hard to figure out what to do because there's a lot of information out there. Here's one trick that almost no one else is using.

You can't deny that video is powerful. Video online is everywhere because people love it. About the only thing that keeps people's attention anymore is video. So you can put this to great advantage in your affiliate marketing.

Here's how to use videos for affiliate promotions:

Do a testimonial video
Record a walk-through
Record the order process
Record a preview of the members area

Do a testimonial video

This one is super simple. Just turn on your web cam and talk. Don't worry about quality. Seeing a real person on the other end helps your viewers make a buying decision. In truth, mistakes and mess-ups just make it more believable. So serious, just turn on the camera and talk. And if you don't want to show your face, use one of the next ideas.

Do a video walk-through

This technique works slightly more subconsciously. You're taking the role of teacher and showing how to use the product. And while they watch you use it, they think, "I should buy that." If the product is useful, watching the tutorial makes them want to buy it. So pick some really helpful aspect of the product and show how to use that.

Record the order process

This technique is super powerful. Record yourself placing an order. Nothing inspires your viewers to buy like watching you do it. In the first place it acts as social proof. People will feel more comfortable buying after seeing you do it. It also build your viewers trust. They are much more likely to take your advice to buy when you've taken it yourself. And let's not forget about good old fashioned envy. It's simple - you have it. Now they want it. To really cap this one off, end your video with: If you want to see the inside, you'll have to order it yourself.

Record a preview of the members area

Here's an easy way to show the value of the product. What you do is record a tour of the back end. And show them everything they get by ordering. And it helps soften the skeptics. Once they've seen the back-end, they know it's real.

It's easy!

There's no technical knowledge required. Anyone can create stunning videos with some easy-to-use software. The software really does all the work So you don't have to worry about the technical part of this at all. Remain focused on the benefits:

Increase sales You'll earn more affiliate commissions when you add video. Start using videos because people love them.
Lower refund rates Less of your commissions will be clawed back, too. Now they know what they get before they purchase. So, very few of them will cancel their order.
Rise above the competition! This is such a simple technique. But only a very small percentage do it. This puts you out in front of the rest.

Take your affiliate promotions to a higher level and getting started with this now. It's your profit that's affected by not taking action.
