Back to: Affiliate Marketing Essentials
You already help people choose tools. Affiliate marketing gives you a way to earn from those recommendations while continuing to serve your audience.
Start With What You Know
Think about the software you use to run your business or teach your students. You have experience that someone choosing their first tool does not have yet.
You know what worked. You know what took time to figure out. And you know which problems the product helped you solve.
That experience is the starting point. A useful recommendation explains the problem, shows how the product helps, and gives someone enough information to decide whether it fits their needs.
Build Assets That Keep Helping
A tutorial can answer the same question for hundreds of people. A review can help someone months after you publish it. Each useful resource gives your audience another way to find an answer (and discover your work).
The video describes this as the compounding effect of affiliate marketing. Your content library grows, and older resources can continue attracting people who need them.
Build for usefulness. Keep your recommendations current. Results depend on the quality of your work, the audience you reach, and the affiliate program’s terms.
Use Your LifterLMS Experience
If you have built a course or membership with LifterLMS, start there. Explain a decision you made or show a setup that helped your students.
Your recommendation can help another education entrepreneur launch a course, serve a community, or share their expertise. That is work worth doing.
You do not need to develop the product or provide the merchant’s support. Your contribution is helping someone understand the product and choose it for the right reasons.
Take Action
- List 3 tools you already recommend to clients, students, or your community.
- For each tool, write down the problem it solves and the person who needs that help.
- Choose 1 recommendation you can turn into a tutorial, review, or resources-page entry.
Start with the advice people already ask you for. Create something they can use.
