How it works
Let’s talk about each one.
1. Seller and product creators.
The seller, whether a solo entrepreneur or large enterprise, is a vendor, merchant, product creator, or retailer with a product to market. The product can be a physical object, like household goods, or a service, like makeup tutorials.
2. The affiliate or publisher.
Also known as a publisher, the affiliate can be either an individual or a company that markets the seller’s product in an appealing way to potential consumers.
In other words, the affiliate promotes the product to persuade consumers that it is valuable or beneficial to them and convince them to purchase the product. If the consumer does end up buying the product, the affiliate receives a portion of the revenue made.
3. The consumer.
Whether the consumer knows it or not, they (and their purchases) are the drivers of affiliate marketing. Affiliates share these products with them on social media, blogs, and websites.

Tips to promote your affiliate offer
To make a convincing recommendation, it’s best to get personal. Share your experience in your blog, social media post, or video.
If you’re writing a personal review, give a candid opinion based on your experience with and knowledge of the product. The more open you are, the more authentic you will be.
However, that alone is not enough. Take into consideration the tips below while
1. Build trust
People will be more comfortable following your advice if they feel they can trust you.
Trust is a key factor in your affiliate marketing efforts, because people need to trust you enough to act on your recommendations.
The level of trust you’ll need to make affiliate sales depends on your industry and the products you’re recommending — for example, it takes more trust to be an effective affiliate for a INR 3,000 course, than it does for a t-shirt that costs a few hundred rupees.
Building trust, however, is something that happens over a period of time. So, if you’re new to creating content for affiliate marketing, don’t expect success overnight.
And more importantly, don’t be disheartened or impatient with your project to make affiliate marketing work for you.
Patience, persistence and consistency are your allies in building trust.
2. Talk to a product expert
An option you can explore in terms of your content is interviewing others who use the product or service, or even interviewing the person who makes or sells it.
Authentic experience of a product’s user, and the expertise of a product expert, both add a weight of meaning to your recommendations.
This can give your recommendation more depth, creating a narrative for your audience.
And if done well, they will increasingly seek your content to discover or learn about new products.
3. Create a product tutorial
While your success with affiliate marketing can depend on the overall size of your following, another way to drive higher-converting traffic is by providing a tutorial on the offer.
Moreover, people often perform “how to” searches on Google, such as “how to save money for college” or “how to decorate a laundry room.”
If you offer a tutorial that solves a searcher’s problem and clearly showcases the value of the product, your referrals will make more sense in context and you’ll provide the customer with a stronger incentive to purchase the product you’re recommending.
4. Find relevant search terms
If you’re promoting an offer through a blog post or YouTube, research which keywords someone might use in a search engine to find an answer to a related problem.
5. Consider your angle
Depending on your offer, figure out how much energy you should invest in instructional or tutorial content, which is often a natural lead-in to someone trying a product for themselves.
For example, you could record a video of yourself using and getting the most out of a physical product, or showing off the benefits of a digital product, like software.
It helps audiences catch a glimpse of the product’s utility before making a purchase.
Unboxing posts are popular, so if you receive the product in the mail, document your experience opening it up.
6. Set your distribution strategy
Once you’ve created your promotional content, share it on your website or social media platforms to let network effects take over.
If you have an email list, you can create an email marketing campaign. And be sure to have an affiliate marketing hub on your website with a resources page where you share a quick list of all of the tools you use and love.
7. Try offering a bonus
Sometimes marketers promote their affiliate programs by offering bonuses to anyone who purchases the offer.
For example, you could give a free ebook you wrote to any follower who makes a purchase. Promotions like this encourage customers to buy by sweetening the deal.
It is especially persuasive if the bonus you offer is something you normally sell, because then shoppers can see its actual monetary value right on your site.
Sometimes if you have the right audience and great engagement, you can strike a deal with the promoting brand to offer an exclusive bonus for your audiences.
This is often a win-win for both you and the brand, since you get to incentivise your audience to purchase through your links for exclusive offers, and the brands get to target their discounts more effectively to the right audience.
The most common bonus programs seen in India are coupons, free trials, product giveaways or extra discounts for a service/ products purchased with the affiliate links.
8. Keep things legal and above board
There are some duties that need to be fulfilled when you’re doing affiliate marketing like the use of a disclosure label.
A disclosure is required for all brand promotions if there is any material connection between both the entities. In the case of affiliate marketing, your content contains a hyperlink or discount code, where you get paid for every ‘clickthrough’ and sale that can be traced back to your content. Therefore you must use a disclosure label.
Even if you put links in your content for your family brand it’s necessary that you disclose it.
If you’re promoting something at your own expense and there is no material exchange of any kind with the brand you are choosing to talk about, no disclosure is necessary.
All disclosures you make must be prominently visible in a way that it can’t be missed.
9. Display your affiliate links/codes prominently
Where and how you feature your affiliate links and codes in your content must be carefully thought through.
While it’s important not to seem pushy, it’s vital that an interested user does not miss them.
Below are a few general tips you could put into practice in your affiliate marketing campaigns.
