Free E-Courses and Affiliate Marketing

When you offer free E-Courses to your customers, you are building a relationship with them. By providing this added value, you will stand out to them as someone who cares. You earn their trust and this will keep them returning.

Let's say that you are promoting a guide on how to gain copywriting skills. You can take a little bit of this product and create your own free 5-day course. The E-Course should provide value to the customer. At the end of each email, you of course will be providing a link that will take them to the product you are promoting.

This is also an excellent way to build your mailing list. On your website, simply create a form offering this 5-day E-Course. As people sign up, your client list grows providing you with more people to offer your products to. If they find value in the information you provide, more than likely they will buy the product you are promoting.

How can I create a course for someone else's product?

This process can be very simple. Some programs will offer you (the affiliate)an E-Course to promote their product. This in turn can be used with your mailings and promotions. You can easily right one yourself if this is not offered by the program. Remember, the course doesn't have to be directly related to the product itself, just related to the information it provides.

In this example we used how to gain copywriting skills. You can tell people how to write a catchy headline, how to break up the information to be easily read by the reader, various tools available to make copywriting easier for them. Just be careful not to give out too much information. You want to entice the reader so that they purchase the actual product you are linking to in the E-Course. Provide information they will find value in and make sure it directly relates to copywriting.

I also mentioned that you will want to make sure you add a link at the bottom of every email linking directly back to the product offered. This is very simple: Give a quick headline to describe the product you are offering and then enter the web address they can visit to get more information, as shown below:

Once the course is complete, you will want to follow up periodically with other emails relating to gaining copywriting skills. This is an awesome tool no affiliate should overlook. It will show your prospective customer that you are a knowledgeable source and increase your affiliate commissions. Point to remember, you are not the only person offering this product on the internet, what will make the customer want to buy from your link? What sets you apart from the other affiliates offering this same product? Some people choose to offer a discount or free bonuses if someone decides to purchase from their links. Free E-Courses are an honest and ethical way to gain your future customers.
