Ive been reserching about how to get started in the affilate marketing business and was looking to see whether anyone knew of any sites on the web that would help me get started.  Basically all the sites I've found so far just give a basic overview of the area and and dont really give an indepth guide to getting started.  Does anyone know of any indepth sources on the web?  also any thoughts, advice or ideas on getting started would be greatly appreciated.

I know exactly where you are coming from.\n\nStart with smaller groups.  Offer your workshops for free to get a following. You might want to start with some local churches or civic groups.  Build from there.\n\nStart with one workshop.  Focus is essential.  A niche is vital.  Find something that no one else is speaking to and attack it.  One workshop done with zeal and sincerity and you'll be successful.  You can branch out from there.\n\nWhat speaks to you?  What topic do you feel women need more than any other?  How can you provide information on that topic better than anyone else - or with a twist that makes you unique?\n\nNarrow it down until you have a single idea.  You can afford to set aside the other ideas for the time being.  They will still be there.  One at a time.  It's the only way to be successful.  Growth comes from experience, but you need the experience first.\n\nYou will probably want a web presence, too.  I used SiteBuildIt because they offered SO MUCH for the money.  A link is below in case you're interested.  My site is listed below that.  It's about resume writing.  I am in the process of finishing my e-book for sale on the site.\n\nBelieve me, I know exactly where you're coming from.  I have so many ideas in my head, it's hard to settle on just one.  But I had to start with one idea.  I can always work on the next one when this one is up and running (or I may find that I have so much success with this one that I am satisfied with what I'm doing).\n\nYou can conquer anything.  Just stay focused and maintain your direction.

First come up with a powerful run. Then go to the compainies you would like to sponser you. Tell them who you are and tell them you would like them to check you out in action. A really good way is at compitions. I got sponsered at a compition. It maight take some time. It took me two months to get a sponser. I was sponsered by mt dew, borderline  and a few local places. Enough to pay for gear and travel. It was cool for two years i got to travel and snowboard, that was my job and it was tons of fun.

I was in the same boat as you are and all i found was a bunch of scams...You will get answered by people referring you to survey sites beware i went to them and they dont work they all want money...The best thing i found was selling mary kay....you can set up a website and sell it and you can also sell it by having parties. It is a great income if you are determined to put a little effort into it and it doesnt take a lot of your time just a party once every couple weeks....

I can only comment on our network marketing company that we are distributors for. as we have been going for 27 years , with no debt, every country we open a head office in we buy it cash... We are currently in 114 countries. \nwe dont owe anyone money and our turnover in uk was 34 million and rising.we are ranked the 2nd successful mlm. I cant see any way possible that this would suddenly fold and the distributors lose out. The assets our company own include south fork in Dallas plus a number of other resorts worldwide. \nI feel safe with my company but you never stated which one you are joining and how long they have been going. I would be wary of joining any networking company that did not have a proven track record. before you sign do your homework, get as much info on the co as poss.\nI loved the whole concept of our company and they way that it works, I have since looked at a few other mlm and found their way does not benefit the distributor as much, but that does not mean to say there arent other good ones out there. If you would like to know more dont hesitate in contacting me but include a email for me to contact you back. I think speaking to someone else can help as you get a different view on things and good ideas!!

Hello, \n\nBelow are websites that I think can help, they are for organizations that help people in countries other than America.  They help with Micro-loans to help you start your own business.  And as it grows you can continue to borrow more money to expand. \n\nYou can also look online for "international micro lender".\n\nThe second and third links are of other men in different parts of Africa that have used the services of Accion International to take loans and start their own businesses.\n\nAnd I don't know if you already have a business idea in mind or not, but African Black Soap and Unrefined Shea Butter sell VERY well in America.  I will put links to this as well.  If you can get a loan to purchase these materials you may be able to start making more money than the gentlemen in the links I provided (we can hope :). I recently paid $30 US for 2 - 5 oz. bars of natural black soap and 2 - 4 oz of unrefined shea butter.  There is also a women that lives in Africa that is selling the soap through ebay.   \n\nBest of luck to you and your family

It is usually $10 to start. You get brochures for two campaignes, a start up kit with information on the products, samples, and some pamphlets. You make a 50% commission on your first four orders so make them good. You can become an e-representative for like 8 or 9 bucks a campaigne (every two weeks) and that is so you can place you orders online, have your own website, and so that friends and family members can order from you even if they live out of state. (of course you only get a 20% commission off of that, but everything helps) Need anymore info, e-mail me...Thanks\n\nYou may want to check this out as well:\nhttp://www.shopnutronix.com/default.asp?guid=DD7CC275-D19E-43B7-A512-CC0B9326B180

Before investing time and especially money on any home-based business offers, it’s a very good idea to educate yourself on the different types of schemes there are out there, and what to look for - and look out for - before picking a home-based business.  The Federal Trade Commission offers several advisories about home-based business opportunities and network marketing (MLM) schemes. Please review them before making any decisions:\n\n"Work at home Schemes" http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/invest/homewrk.htm \n'Net Based Business Opportunities: Are Some Flop-portunities?\nhttp://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/online/netbizop.htm\n"The Bottom Line on Multilevel Marketing Plans" http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/alerts/pyrdalrt.htm

Hello!\nWe were Amway distributors about 10 years ago and fell in love with some of the products. We later quit but missed the products.\n\nWe signed up again with Quixtar a few months ago so we could get the products a little cheaper.\n\nI believe that MLMs are the way to go to create an extra income or even great wealth and Quixtar is one of the grand-daddies of MLM. However, the retail mark-up is so low on the most popular products that you have to be a super sales person to make any money through retail. And you need good retail to finance the training system.\n\nOur down-fall the first time was the cost of the traning system. But let me say this... for most people (98%) the training is a must because a good MLM is more about persenal growth when a person first starts.\n\nMost people don't have any knowledge about business or dealing with people. Most take rejection as a personal blow and it's really not. Rejection is a killer for most distributors.\n\nI think Quixtar is an excellent business if you have the energy, the high self esteem, and the money to get it going. As far as it being a scam, let's be realistic. Quixtar is what now, about 50 years old and is connected to some of the worlds largest companies and has distributors world-wide. If it was a scam it would have been shot down a long time ago.\n\nAnd as far as a new person never making as much as the people at the top, the people at the top also started at the bottom.\nI know people that have worked for WalMart for years and they will NEVER make as much as Sam Walton did.\n\nAs I said, MLM is the way to go. But we found a company with excellent products with a good retail mark-up, an excellent MLM payplan and with an internet connection the training is free. We started in March and it's doing very well.\n\nWe still get our SA8 and some other products through our Quixtar up-line but we're making money with our other MLM.\n\nIf you like Quixtar go for it. Don't spend the rest of your life wondering WHAT IF.\n\nYou sound like the kind of person we're looking for. If you're still looking for something we would love to talk with you.\n\nWhat ever you decide... Don't let anybody steal your dream!
