If you believe that affiliate marketing is your ideal home business opportunity, then you need to sit down and find answers to what I call the '3 Power Points' of affiliate and Internet marketing.

Before going anywhere near an affiliate program you will need to define your route to success by looking deep inside yourself and discovering exactly what you're looking to achieve.

===> Power Point 1 <===

Do you really BELIEVE that it is possible for you to succeed at affiliate marketing...

I hope that you have already spent many hours researching the whole concept of Internet marketing and how to become an affiliate. Let me tell you that contrary to what so-called 'gurus' will tell you - you are unlikely to become a milionaire overnight.

You must believe that it is POSSIBLE for you to make your living from affiliate marketing. Without this self belief, you will not succeed.

By being a little imaginative, you should be able to capitalize on what's already working for other people - if it works for them, it surely must work for you too.

There are literally thousands of people trying to do the same as you, trying to make money as an affiliate. Many are making money, but far more are not, but believe in yourself and this will be an advantage...

You will be competing with many others to sell the same product or service, but write a better headline, a more informative review, make your whole 'pitch' relevant to the prospect and you will make it work, but have the belief even when you think it's not working - keep believing, using your creativity and you will begin to see results.

You see, many others would have given up and gone back to their 'day-job', which means less competition and higher quality from you, making it easier for prospects to choose you over the dross they've just navigated away from.

===> Power Point 2 <===

WHY do you want to start a business as an affiliate marketer...

Do you have a job right now? If so, chances are you're working 9-5 in a nice office and you've got the company of plenty of other people to socialize with every day.

OK, the commute in and back home again might be a grind, but at least you have a pay check at the end of the month - are you really prepared to give all that up? WHY...

My situation was that my existing business required personal interaction with my clients, which I'd just had enough of. The problem was that I got the flak from the client if things went wrong, and the moaning from supliers continually wanting more sales. I wanted to find a medium that could take that away - the Internet

What's your reason WHY? Find it and understand it, then commit to it

===> Power Point 3 <===

Not the leap of faith, but a JUMP of KNOWLEDGE...

What does that mean???

Well, the only way to learn, is to jump right in, but you don't want to fall into any old program, especially if it's likely to cost you anything.

If we go back to the start of this article, I presumed that you have been spending many hours investigating many of the affiliate marketing programs on the Internet and that you have a good idea of what's good and what isn't.

In many cases, you may only cost yourself time, but in actual fact, there are some programs that even try to eliminate much of that restraint too.

Identify a ready-made-business that's been in operation for a few years with authentic testimonials and then sign-up. By doing it this way, you shouldn't have to worry about designing and building a website, or even much of the marketing as that should already have been produced for you, all you have to work on is promoting your new business and by using many of the free resources available, you should be up and running quite quickly.

My point is - just do it!

I spent way too long trying to find the 'perfect program'. It doesn't exist, but if you find a reputable program with proof it works, get involved...make that JUMP.
