Basically you'll just sell popular products Okay, so you can go on Clickbank calm or Commission Junction. If you're an affiliate marketer you probably are if you're watching this video, then you can sell popular products you can also sell rare products, rare products equals less competition. Okay, so if you're trying to sell you know, a health and fitness product, like the truth about abs, you may have a lot of other people competing with you. Although a product like that may be good for you starting out as well because the conversions are so great, but meaning if you get traffic to that product people are typically going to buy But hey, rare products have less competition, so really depends on what niche you're trying to target.
And just remember the physical product you're selling should be cheaper than Walmart prices. Okay, so if you're going to be an affiliate for Amazon, you're gonna sell something on Amazon from Amazon on Pinterest. Just lowered the price. should be cheaper than somewhere they can just go and buy it at the local supermarket or at least competitive. Then CPA, okay, you can sell popular items like iPhone, or your products should be related to your profile and boards. The good thing about CPA networks is that they give you money just for generating leads in case you don't actually have to sell.
You just have to get people to fill in their information. And you can learn more about CPA by going to sites like offer vault dotnet, and places like that. But CPAs great, little bit more difficult to get accepted into a CPA network than it is to get accepted into Clickbank But either way, it's a good option. It's available to you. There's also the pinner shop. Okay, so you want to make sure on the pinners shop that you keep your board shop consistent around a topic or a theme for congruency.
Okay, so don't you know if you're trying to sell a health and fitness product, don't don't all of a sudden start talking about making money online or dating and relationship advice or, you know, building chicken coops or whatever Just keep it consistent. You can create multiple board shops, just make sure you keep it consistent for each one, then mix it up, you know, don't make it obvious that you're just trying to make money from your audience.

You also want to find top influencers and follow them. Okay, repin their best pins, then copy the influencers, just do what other people are doing, you know, benchmark other people's success works very well.
Just look at what they're doing, how they're doing it and when they're doing it, okay, when people can Very important, you may have noticed that if you post a status update on your Facebook account, it's sometimes the night, or certain times in a day when everybody's at work, maybe you don't get as much response as if you post at a time when people are all at home and they're on Facebook. And then you can add the pin button everywhere so people can share your pin so you can add it all over at all all of your websites everywhere like that.
