Out of all the methods and strategies I’ve used online to make a nice income.. Joint Venture deals have been responsible for my business growing fastest. I still blog, outsource, do some PPC, write and submit articles, implement advanced SEO strategies (even some crazy black hat ones), but JVs have always been the most powerful and quickest for getting results.
I primarily use Joint Ventures to grow my business as an affiliate. You can find out some of them by checking out Ultimate Listbuilding Secrets. I can honestly say it all comes down to having a circle of 5 very strong partners.
My circle of JVs… We were partners when our businesses were small. We’re still partners as our business have grown to the size they are today. Whenever they put out something new, it’s as if there’s a silent obligation to promote their quality products and services. Whenever I occasionally put out a product, they promote it for me. We constantly do other types of deals too.
Working behind the scenes in the past for internet marketers who make several times what I make… that’s how they roll too. If I weren’t so damn lazy I’d put out a new product every month and my partners and I would just promote each others’ stuff week by week, a few days at a time… 3X5, that’s half of your month’s promotions taken care of.
When it’s John’s week to be promoted, everyone promotes John. When it’s Robbie’s week to be promoted, everyone promotes Robbie. When it’s your week, everyone promotes you.
You don’t need to try to grow an affiliate army. You only need 4 people. And that small network can be amazingly profitable.
Having a circle of 5 JV partners has other benefits too. You’re always masterminding and sharing with each other what works in the trenches. The best way to hold your circle is to get on Skype and add all 5 JV partners to the room. That way you can all be communicating constantly, leveraging your resources together, and sharing strategies together.
If you want to build your circle of JV partners, here are a few places you can find like-minded marketers who have businesses on the same or level as yours: JVME, Internet Marketing Ad Swaps Forum, and Warrior Joint Venture Forum.
I'm sorry - you can't simply call this "Affiliate Training"
or even Advanced Affiliate Training! You are handing over the goods to an ENTIRE business model - complete with the foundational principles that 95% of all online marketers miss or skip. (Being totally honest here - you pointed out a few things that even I've missed in my
own affiliate marketing endeavors!) I'm blown away at how comprehensive you've been in assembling ALL the pieces of the "profit pie" in a concise, easy to follow, step-by-step formula. This is a no-brainer and the contents in this package far exceed what I've seen a lot of people pay $1000s for in conventional coaching programs. It does my heart good to see two people who aren't turning people lose into a sea of confusion and only revealing half of the picture. You guys covered it all in style!
I was literally blown away by the amount of content you were able to share in just 3 hours. It's truly refreshing to see people who are sharing information on
what's working right NOW based on REAL numbers and REAL results. While others still seem to cover the "same old information", you've laid out a real step by step plan that works, and reveal tips and
tricks I've never heard shared anywhere else! I honestly believe that anyone who gets this course will not only be
successful, but by following your tips on optimizing the entire business model, your members will be making a killing in no time!"
I just finished going though your affiliate training course and
I must say, you guys have really outdone yourselves with this one... IT'S AWESOME! The information you let go in this training course is exactly
what people need to know to get their affiliate marketing
business off the ground. I wish I would've had this info when I first started out... you should be charging more for it.
I definitely will be recommending this to my readers...
Wow Jason! I just finished that video and it is amazing! I was expecting to just watch it real quick, thinking that I wouldn't learn
anything new. But man, I found myself taking 5 pages worth of notes and reconfiguring some of the ways I currently do business. You really do drop some golden nuggets of information
here. You could easily break this stuff up, spread it out over 3 months, and sell it as a continuity product. I feel like I just got a personal coaching session. This really is great work. This isn't me just BSing and kissing your a** either. I really did learn a lot and I
think I'm going to have a much more profitable business for it. Just the resources and links that you give out make this so valuable. You honestly really over-delivered!
This is by far and away the most comprehensive course on Affiliate Marketing I've ever seen. For newbies it answers a lot of questions that often stop them getting started in the first place. But it's not
just for newbies, I'm sure a lot of experienced affiliates don't know a lot of this stuff! Some of the resources in the accompanying PDF I had not seen before, this alone is a very useful part of the package. The bonus Squeeze Page Crusher video is an extremely valuable addition to
the package with some surprising and counter intuitive test results. I
wonder how many squeeze pages out there could benefit from the conversion boosts you guys got?

Jason, this is pure gold and 100% true. As I read this I started thinking about emailing some of the guys I’ve been “coming up ” with…. not only to keep in touch with, so they can promote me, but so I can make sure they are growing at the speed they should be so they make money too. Your friends are your best accountability partners.
