Reason #1
You don’t own the product.
Creating and owning your own product is a ton of work. Believe me, I know. I designed and created a product in 2018 to sell on Amazon. While Amazon handled the fulfillment of my product I still carried the liability. With Affiliate Marketing you collect your commissions and that is the end of your involvement. The business handles all the logistics once the customer you provided purchases. No shipping no customer service no liability, just payment.
Reason #2
The start-up and monthly costs are the lowest of any business I have been a part of which is great for someone just starting out. A funnel builder, email autoresponder, and a good training program are all I started with and I have not needed anything beyond that since I started. My monthly expenses are around $130 a month and because both of the software I use had free trials I basically started my first month completely free other than the $7.00 I paid for the course I used. My list of software and the course are listed below.
Reason #3
Free traffic is all you need! One of the most daunting things to tackle online in my opinion is running ads of any kind. Google and Facebook are happy to take your ad money and promptly chuck it down a deep dark hole never to be seen again. Not knowing what you are doing when setting up ads is a fast way to go broke when starting your new business. The good news is there are tons of options for free traffic including this blog you are currently reading.
