INTRODUCTION
With affiliate marketing expecting to reach 6.8
billion by 2020…
Now is the best time ever to get started!
Unfortunately, the failure rate for affiliate
marketing is over 90% for a brand new beginner.
But it doesn’t surprise me because most affiliates
just end up playing the blame game:
‘Affiliate marketing is dead’
‘The course I bought didn’t work the way it was
supposed to’
‘It’s getting too competitive’
This is good news for people like you that ignore
all the noise on the internet.
If other people are making money, why can’t you?
There’s a method to the madness!
PAGE# 1
INTRODUCTION
Which is why I’m creating this guide for you. It will
clearly layout the 7 proven steps to starting a
profitable affiliate business FASTER than you ever
thought possible.
No pitches.
No upsells.
No garbage.
Just the best possible advice I could give someone
after struggling desperately, to generating
multiple streams of income per year in affiliate
commissions by age 25.
Here’s what I discovered:
PAGE# 2
STEP 1
THE PERFECT
NICHE
THE PERFECT NICHE STEP 1
IT MUST BE EVERGREEN
Let’s be honest, you don’t want to have recurring
affiliate commission landing straight in your bank
account for the next 2 years...you want them for
the rest of your LIFE!
The most common mistake I see everyday is
newbies going into the wrong niche. Niches that
won’t even be around for more than a couple
years…
And sure you could catch a trend, have to restart,
catch another trend, then have to restart
again...but who wants to play that exhausting
game?
Just think about all the people who used to sell
fidget spinners…
Sure, it was great for a couple of months. But once
the trend died down, everyone selling fidgets had
no way to clear their inventory and had to take a
BIG LOSS.
PAGE# 3
THE PERFECT NICHE STEP 1
It’s the same thing in affiliate marketing.
Pick a niche that’s not going anywhere for the next
10-20 years…
For example, my favorite niche is the digital
marketing niche.
Why?
The internet’s not going anywhere, and neither is
digital marketing.
This is why the main product I promote is a digital
marketing platform called Builderall. I’m
positioned in a niche that will never end.
IT MUST BE HIGH DEMAND
This may go hand and hand with picking an
evergreen niche, because if it’s going to be around
for forever, then chances are it’s in high demand…
PAGE# 4
THE PERFECT NICHE STEP 1
And if you’re thinking...but aren’t niches with
higher demand more competitive, well you’re
right!
Competition isn’t always bad though.
Competition means there’s A LOT of money to be
made…
And if you come into a niche with a solid strategy
& a game plan, you can also be a big player in that
niche.
But before I show you that, let’s go a bit deeper
and talk about how to choose the RIGHT product
to promote that will pay you big.
PAGE# 5
STEP 2
THE PERFECT
PRODUCT
THE PERFECT PRODUCT STEP 2
FOCUS ON 1 CORE PRODUCT
I know some affiliates who promote dozens, even
hundreds of different products all to the same
niche…
And, it doesn’t work too well!
Sure now they can say they have ‘multiple streams
of income’ and feel better about themselves…
But, that doesn’t get you to your goal faster!
Plus, imagine having to manage hundreds of
different payouts from all these companies then
trying to organize that in your taxes…
No thanks!
This is why throughout the past 3 years as a full-
time affiliate, I’ve mainly promoted just 1 CORE
product throughout my career.
The result?
PAGE# 6
THE PERFECT PRODUCT STEP 2
As my dad used to say to me, keep it simple stupid
;)
RECURRING OR LIFETIME
COMMISSIONS
So many times in the past everything is going
smoothly…
Enjoying my day…
Then BAM. “Your Facebook ad account has been
disabled”
All of sudden I have zero income coming in
because I was promoting one-off products on
Clickbank…
PAGE# 7
THE PERFECT PRODUCT STEP 2
But now, it wouldn’t be a problem because 80% of
my income comes from recurring commissions
that come in every month.
I could not work for the next 3 months & still make
the same amount because I already have hundreds
of customers paying Builderall monthly under
me…
This gives me the peace of mind I always wanted
in life.
So, when it comes to choosing your product make
sure you can keep making money from the
customers rather than just making a sale once and
they are gone forever…
Note (a): If your niche has no recurring affiliate
programs then try to add on another 1-3 products
that you can sell in the back-end of your funnel.
Note (b): If you want to promote the same product
I promote that gives you monthly recurring
commissions...you can click here to learn more.
PAGE# 8
THE PERFECT PRODUCT STEP 2
PERFECT & IRRESISTIBLE OFFER
Did you know people see 5,000 ads per day on
average?
Which means people are constantly being pitched
offers left & right.
What does this mean for you?
People are more skeptical than ever...
Which means you need the most amount of
LEVERAGE you can possibly get.
The easiest way to do that is by promoting a solid
company with an irresistible product.
In other words, something so good they just can’t
pass it up!
This is especially important for affiliate marketers
because of all the low-value products being sold
on popular networks like Clickbank, JV ZOO, &
Warrior Plus.
PAGE# 9
THE PERFECT PRODUCT STEP 2
Most of those products won’t even be around for 2
years…
This is another reason why I went all-in with the
Builderall affiliate program.
For example, Builderall is the most complete
digital marketing platform that exists today.
Starting at just $29.90 per month, not only is the
product one of the best available, but the price is
irresistible.
Which makes it that much easier to promote.
Above all else, no matter what you want to
promote...
Just make sure it’s a solid product in an
everlasting niche that you believe will be around
in the next 5-10 years.
PAGE# 10
STEP 3
THE PERFECT
STRATEGY /
GAME PLAN
THE PERFECT STRATEGY / GAME PLAN STEP 3
If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.
I know, cheesy saying...but it’s true!
So many affiliates nowadays will just listen to
anyone on the internet without making their own
game plan for their niche…
And, the SLOWEST way to a full-time income
online is by switching constantly switching your
strategy & game plan.
As you know there’s many different approaches
you can take to make money with affiliate
marketing…
So let me save you time and show you what has
always worked best for me and my most successful
students.
PAGE# 11
THE PERFECT STRATEGY / GAME PLAN STEP 3
YOU MUST COLLECT LEADS
Ever started promoting a new product and you
wish you could just start making sales right away
without building some sales funnel?
If so, you’re dreaming!
Or even worse, you’ve been sold that fake dream
by someone else…
After winning my first car from an affiliate contest
a couple years back, I realized:
I have 2 MAIN jobs as an affiliate…
This is the first one:
Collect leads!
PAGE# 12
THE PERFECT STRATEGY / GAME PLAN STEP 3
I don’t care what anyone says if you’re looking to
never stress about bills again…
‘The money is in the list’
Especially as an affiliate, your email list is your
asset.
When you have thousands of people on a list that
actually trust you, they will buy the products you
recommend FOREVER.
And from my experience, the more leads I collect
the more money I make!
YOU MUST ENHANCE THOSE
LEADS LIFE
Maybe you have leads but they’re not buying from
you or taking your recommendations?
It’s kind of like dating…
PAGE# 13
THE PERFECT STRATEGY / GAME PLAN STEP 3
After the first date, people typically don’t go straight
to the bedroom.
It takes some time.
You need to trust each other first.
Make sure you like him/her.
In the online world,
It’s the same thing…
Even though you collect a lead, it doesn’t mean it’s a
done deal.
It just means they’re interested in your offer…
Just like dating, you must prove you’re a real person
they can trust.
How do you do that?
PAGE# 14
THE PERFECT STRATEGY / GAME PLAN STEP 3
Give them content, educate on their problems, give an
awesome lead magnet (like this one), and prove you’re
the one that can solve their problem.
Then make your offer!
Once you have a predictable way to collect leads and
enhance those leads life, your sales & life will change
forever.
PAGE# 15
STEP 4
THE PERFECT
FUNNEL
THE PERFECT FUNNEL STEP 4
THE OPT-IN
In order to start collecting leads, you need an
automated process to allow you to do that.
This is where your funnel comes into place…
And the opt-in page is how they enter your funnel.
Let’s go over the basics:
You never just give your email to someone for the fun
of it, right?
Which is why you must give away a ‘lead magnet’
Something you giveaway for free in exchange for their
name and email. Whether it’s a webinar, free checklist,
pdf, ebook, video series, course, etc.
A free piece of value that your niche can’t afford to
miss out on!
That’s what makes a good lead magnet.
PAGE# 16
THE PERFECT FUNNEL STEP 4
Once you create your lead magnet (or hire someone to
make it) it’s now time to put it on your opt-in page so
you have a way an automated way of capturing leads.
Here’s some examples of great opt-in pages for
affiliates:
PAGE# 17
THE PERFECT FUNNEL STEP 4
To create a high converting opt-in page like the
examples above, you will need some type of funnel/
builder.
Unfortunately most funnel builders are either too
confusing to use or too expensive ranging to as high as
$297/mo…
PAGE# 18
THE PERFECT FUNNEL STEP 4
This is why I switched from using Clickfunnels to
Builderall a couple years ago. It’s a fraction of the
price and they give you twice the amount of tools for
no extra charge.
You can claim a 14-day free trial here, if you’d like.
(Plus if you buy a plan, I’ll even send you over some high-
converting affiliate funnels that are already done, so you
can download them straight to your Builderall account
and use them yourself)
THE BRIDGE PAGE
Immediately after someone gives you their email on
your opt-in page, they will get sent straight to what
you call a bridge page.
The goal of this bridge page is in the name itself.
It acts as a bridge to the product you are
recommending as an affiliate!
PAGE# 19
THE PERFECT FUNNEL STEP 4
Meaning, this is where you want to make a short video
to introduce yourself, tell them why you’re here, and
lastly how the product is going to help them.
That’s it!
Under that video you want to leave a button with your
affiliate link inside: (see examples below)
PAGE# 20
THE PERFECT FUNNEL STEP 4
But what if you really can’t or don’t want to make a
video?
If you haven’t noticed, my goal is to be as transparent
as possible in this free guide.
Will having a video make it convert higher?
Yes.
Can you still do affiliate marketing if you don’t have a
video?
Absolutely.
You just need to have a little bit of a different game
plan / strategy…
(Everyone has their own strategy as I said before)
For example:
Instead of taking you new leads to a bridge video, you
can send them straight to a thank you page.
PAGE# 21
THE PERFECT FUNNEL STEP 4
Where you are delivering the lead magnet that they
just opted in for.
The difference is, there’s no recommendation to buy a
product…
Usually looks something like this:
PAGE# 20
THE PERFECT FUNNEL STEP 4
With this strategy, even though you won’t be making
any money right of the back...you still gave your lead
great value!
The BIG money will come shortly after this…
Because remember, every sales STARTS with a lead.

STEP 5
THE PRECIOUS
ASSET
(A.K.A. YOUR EMAIL LIST)
THE PRECIOUS ASSET (A.K.A. YOUR EMAIL LIST) STEP 5
THE BEST WAY TO FOLLOW UP
There was once an important study done that showed
it takes an average of 7 times for people to see
something before they even consider taking an
action…
Kinda like how when you’re a kid, you WOULDN'T just
ask your mom for a cookie once, you would keep
asking...
Can I have a cookie?
Please?
Just 1?
I’ll stop bugging you?
I’ll take out the trash?
Fine...Archie!
You can have one after dinner if you’re good.
PAGE# 24
THE PRECIOUS ASSET (A.K.A. YOUR EMAIL LIST) STEP 5
Same thing here but with affiliate marketing...
...you need to constantly show them that your product
can help them with their problem.
That the product is the guide for their belly fat, for
their marketing tools, for their organic diets,
whatever the niche may be…
The point is, the money is in the follow up.
What are you supposed to write in your email follow
up to get people to buy off your link?
That will always depend on the product you're
promoting...
What problem is it solving?
That’s what you want to talk about in your follow up.
For example, here’s the framework I follow for nearly
all of my most successful email campaigns:
Email 1: Lead magnet deliver + why you’re here / what
can they expect.
PAGE# 25
THE PRECIOUS ASSET (A.K.A. YOUR EMAIL LIST) STEP 5
Email 2: State the problem they have & why it’s a big deal.
Email 3: Give empathy to the problem with your own story +
soft recommendation.
Email 4: Introduce the solution (the affiliate product), how it
helped you & can help them too.
Email 5: Why you picked that solution… (why you picked
coke over pepsi or Builderall over Clickfunnels...they need to
know why this solution is the best over everything else,
before buying)
Email 6: Proof your solution is the best! (customer
testimonials or results the product has brought you)
Email 7: Overcome objections (these are questions the lead
might have before buying).
Quick examples: Does this work for a beginner? Can I do this
without a following? Are there any upsells after this?
If there's anything in your leads mind that isn’t answered,
they WON’T buy.
PAGE# 26
THE PRECIOUS ASSET (A.K.A. YOUR EMAIL LIST) STEP 5
This is why you must overcome their objections by talking to
them and seeing what the common questions are in your
product niche.
Email 8: What you get + introduce your free bonuses!
Email 9: Reasons to act now! (scarcity, let them know your
bonus offer is closing soon)
Email 10: Last call, the offer is closing forever (Don't be
afraid to give scarcity in your offer, people need a reason to
act now!)
WHAT TO DO AFTER THE FOLLOW
UP?
Okay...so you did your follow up, you made some offers,
you solved their problem, now what?
At this point this is where most affiliates will NEVER
speak to their lead again…
But in reality this is where the REAL money is!
PAGE# 27
THE PRECIOUS ASSET (A.K.A. YOUR EMAIL LIST) STEP 5
As I said before, your email list has the ability to
generate you monthly income for the rest of your life...
In order to do that you need to consistently email your
list (preferably everyday)
(That’s 5-7 days per week)
Will some people not want to hear from you everyday
and unsubscribe?
Yes, and you should let them!
You only want people on your list that WANT to hear
from you everyday and like your daily
content/recommendations.
This way when you do go to make an offer, people get
EXCITED rather than mad…
And most importantly, your conversions & sales will
skyrocket to numbers you have NEVER thought possible.
“But Archie, what the heck do I send these people everyday
without getting repetitive or annoying?”
PAGE# 28
THE PRECIOUS ASSET (A.K.A. YOUR EMAIL LIST) STEP 5
Great question…
Every niche is a little bit different. For example, the way I
sell Builderall as the #1 affiliate worldwide is by
following a simple pattern like this.
Rotate these types of email in no particular throughout
the week:
1) Recommending content for them to watch (3 days
per week)
Ninja hack: this doesn’t even have to be your own
content. If it’s around the niche and it’s of great value,
share it with them! That’s your job as an affiliate right?
2) Content with recommend product ( 2 days per week)
This type of email is similar to the autoresponder emails
shown in the last section. You typically want to give
some content on a problem that your list is facing.
PAGE# 29
THE PRECIOUS ASSET (A.K.A. YOUR EMAIL LIST) STEP 5
Share a story on how you or a friend overcame it, give
some tips to solve that problem, then at the very end of
the email....recommend a FASTER solution (your affiliate
link...)
3) Give an offer to them they can’t pass up (1 day per
week)
No content here, be more direct. Layout your offer and
clearly explain the BENEFITS of the product you’re
recommending.
To BOOST your sales even more, take advantage of
offering free bonuses if they buy on that day only.
Combine that with the product you’re promoting and
you should have an offer they just can’t afford to miss
out on!
Remember your broadcast list is an ongoing sequence
that essentially goes on forever.
Once you build up an engaged email list of around 500 -
1,000 people that open your emails and listen to your
recommendations, is when everything will CHANGE for
you.

STEP 6
THE PERFECT
BONUSES
THE PERFECT BONUSES STEP 6
WHY HAVE BONUSES?
There are 2 CRUCIAL reasons why you must use bonuses
if you want better results as an affiliate marketer:
1) Bonuses are your unique selling proposition.
Every successful business must have something that
separates themself from the rest of the competition.
Whether it’s Netflix sweeping Blockbuster because they
re-invented the way people rent and watch movies…
Or, Amazon sweeping all the retail stores out of business
because they gave people a faster & easier way to buy
products…
The reason they succeeded is because their product gave
MORE value.
Luckily with affiliate marketing, you don’t have to
reinvent the wheel since you are just promoting it…
BUT, you do need a way to separate yourself from the
rest of the other affiliates out there.
PAGE# 31
THE PERFECT BONUSES STEP 6
Which is exactly why I like to bundle 1-3 high-quality
bonuses together if they buy the product through my
link.
2) Bonuses are the best way to drive scarcity to your
offers.
Ever heard the saying, FOMO?
“THE FEAR OF MISSING OUT”
Everyone has it.
In other words…
People don’t like to miss out on stuff!
For example:
Let’s say a guy named Jim sees a marketing software that
he really likes but he’s just not 100% certain if he wants
to spend the money yet...
PAGE# 32
THE PERFECT BONUSES STEP 6
Chances are he will just throw off buying it until there’s a
REAL reason to act now, right?
NOW, let’s say the next day the same company sends Jim
another email offering 50% OFF on the marketing
software BUT the deal is ending within the next 72 hours...
Jim will most likely pull his credit card out and be glad to
give his hard-earned money in exchange for that deal.
All because he didn’t want to miss out!
This is why having scarcity is crucial when you go to make
an offer.
The only problem with affiliate marketing is that you
DON’T have the ability to discount the products you’re
promoting...
So what can you do?
Offer bonuses for a limited amount of time!
This way instead of ‘discounting’ your offer, you’re just
adding more VALUE to it…
PAGE# 33
THE PERFECT BONUSES STEP 6
Which makes people buy even MORE.
This is why having bonuses are crucial if you want
EASIER & FASTER results in affiliate marketing.
HOW DO YOU MAKE BONUSES
THAT ACTUALLY SELL?
By now, you should know the importance of adding some
high-quality bonuses to your offer…
The question is how do you make them?
And more importantly how do you make bonuses that
actually sell?
Don’t overcomplicate it.
To give you some ideas of the bonuses I offer when
promoting a digital marketing platform like Builderall:
-Done for you funnels
-Email swipes
PAGE# 34
THE PERFECT BONUSES STEP 6
-Free trainings/mini-courses
-A private Facebook group
-A 30 minute call with me
-PDF cheat sheets / ebook
It will always depend on your niche...
(If you don’t have a niche picked out yet, be sure to check out
this NEW niche that gives you an unfair advantage over
popular affiliate networks like Clickbank)
If you do have a good niched picked out already, the
bonus ideas I gave above will work great for practically
any product / niche out there.

STEP 7
THE PERFECT
TRAFFIC
THE PERFECT TRAFFIC STEP 7
THE 1 AND 1 STRATEGY
Traffic is one of the most important jobs as an affiliate…
You can have the best converting funnel, the best emails,
and the best marketing strategy, but if you don’t have a
consistent flow of people (traffic) coming into your
funnel...you WON’T have a business.
There are dozens of ways to get traffic online nowadays,
but I think the most important thing to follow no matter
what is FOCUS.
Instead of being on 3-5 different platforms at once, I like
to just FOCUS on 1 platform to get traffic.
This way I can absolutely dominate that platform and
know everything about it…
Which brings me to the 1 AND 1 strategy I follow:
Having 1 FREE way of bring new people to your funnel:
Whether it’s from…
PAGE# 36
THE PERFECT TRAFFIC STEP 7
-Youtube videos/SEO
-Facebook Group
-Instagram page
-Blogging/SEO
-Facebook Profile
And having 1 PAID way of bringing new people to your
funnel:
-Youtube Ads
-Facebook Ads
-Instagram Ads
-Google Ads
So, if you’re making youtube videos as your free traffic
source then use Youtube ads for your paid traffic…
Or, if you’re starting a Facebook group as your free
traffic source then use Facebook ads for your paid
traffic…
See the pattern?

This is the ultimate strategy to master the skill set of
generating traffic online.
