Join Our MiloTree 6-Week Coaching Group Starting May 26th!
Our new MiloTree Coaching Group is starting May 26th and I couldn't be more excited.
If you’re a new blogger or have been at it for a few years and you’re feeling like you’re ready to dig in and get serious about your business, this group is for you.
It’s a program taught by David and me. It is a workshop every week, a Q&A session every week, and a private Facebook group. But really, it's a community of entrepreneurs, just like you.
Right now, when we’re feeling a little isolated, it’s so nice to connect with other people who are building online businesses.
Topics that we teach include how to find your niche, what products to sell to your audience, how to build your audience, how to create content that gets noticed, and how to do keyword research.
We’re also going to talk about social media (Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook), and how those help you grow your business. We’re going to be talking about email marketing, Google Analytics. All of the fundamental things that you need to know. And again, everything that’s working.
Now, if this sounds interesting to you, please reach out to me, email me at jillian@milotree.com. We could talk about it. We could get on the phone. Also, you can find out more at MiloTree.com/group.
Again, it’s six weeks and it’s starting on May 26th. I couldn’t be more excited. David and I teach it together. We roll up our sleeves. We get to know you, and we get to know your businesses. We’re really there to support you and help you grow. (And we offer a no questions asked 100% money-back guarantee if you're not completely happy!)
So please join now!
Today, I'm interviewing Jeannine Crooks. Jeannine has been in the affiliate marketing world for over 20 years and she shares her expertise with us on how to be successful in this area of online business.
Jeannine currently works for Awin, which is the sister company of ShareASale. If you’ve been in online business for any length of time, I’m sure you’ve heard of ShareASale.
In my conversation with Jeannine, we talk about why affiliate marketing is so powerful right now, how to optimize your site for it, how to think about which products to sell, and how to plan content around affiliate sales.
We also discuss what’s going on with Amazon’s affiliate program right now, and how that isn’t great news for publishers.
Jeannine shares some terrific info on how to pivot away from Amazon and what that looks like.
I think this episode couldn’t be more timely.
Join me, as I chat with Jeannine on specific and creative ways to rethink your affiliate marketing strategy.
The Two Ways to Do Affiliate Marketing
One of the first things to note is that there are two ways to do affiliate marketing—go wide or go deep.
As you all know, I always encourage bloggers to niche down. You’ve heard me say a thousand times, “The riches are in the niches.”
And Jeannine agrees. But when it comes to affiliate marketing, you may want to take your deeply niched blog and spread a little bit wider.
For example, if you’re a food blogger and you have niched down to being a pasta food blogger, there are ways to widen your particular niche in order to do affiliate marketing more effectively.
Not only can you market the dozens of different types of pasta, but you can broaden your affiliates to include the best pasta sauce to go with the specific types of pasta. You can widen it even further to share the best pans to use to make lasagne.
You’re widening your offerings while remaining true to your niche and to true to your followers.
