A Sad truth I hate seeing is that most Affiliate Coaches don't know their ass from a hole in the ground. The fact is they go around pitching you the idea of making $10,000 to $20,000 a month as a good income. Most of them won't get close unless you believe that what they call Organic Social Media is the only way. They also have to pray that you never meet a good pro-blogger, or guru worth their salt.

See Affiliate coaches are seldom successful affiliates and make most if not all their money as coaches.

They are old-school direct sellers, salesmen, and closers but truthfully I have over 1,000 of them I am following on Facebook, and less than 25 of those I would pay for services. The reason is I see them spend 10 hours a day chasing anything that will give them a 15-minute chat and seldom see any of their clients on their posts just other High ticket Affiliate Coaches.

They spend around 60 hours a week prospecting to work less than 5 hours a week with students, never seem to even have a mastermind group, and most can not name a hot selling program affiliates are making money with.

The truth is Organic Social Media Marketing is working too hard as no matter your product or niche there are a million people doing a Google Search with cash in hand ready to buy each day. If you stop chasing and either develop a content marketing plan or the blogs they say don't work but make millionaires, or learn to properly us paid ads, you can reach more people with less effort and will make more money as a High Ticket Affiliate than you could even make as a High Ticket Affiliate Coach.

The truth is an affiliate doesn't have to touch the selling and pitching, or convincing part of the sales process. See sellers do this for their business and do it better because they hire professionals who only focus on that product. As an affiliate you have 1 job and that is to bring in buyer traffic and there are two paths to buyer traffic.

Path 1 to buyer traffic is the most common, you advertise in bulk to a targeted audience and work on your landing pages and follow-up emails to pre-qualify leads before turning them over to the company to close the sale.

Path 2 is to generate a blog or social content network to generate massive free search engine traffic and convert this by solving problems for ideal customers.

A blogger is 12 times more likely to make 6-7 figures annually than someone who is manually tracking down anything that will hear the pitch and every post will drive traffic for months and maybe even years. When you advertise your time and money go to pitch one person, with a blog post it could pitch 1,000+ people for a hell of a lot lower cost.

If I were to have $50 a week to build a business on I would buy 2 guest posts ghostwritten for my blog instead of $50 a week in ads because most keywords people buy off of will cost at least 50 cents a visitor meaning the paid ads have a fixed 100 visits a week but a blog once it reaches 200 posts is generating tens of thousands of visitors a month at the same cost.

This is why so many blogs like Shoemoney or Huffington Post reach millions of daily readers and tens of millions in affiliate income a month while these High Ticket Affiliate Coaches are lucky to get 10 clients to pay the $2,000 a month and net that $20k a month income they make sound so good.

Blogging has some upfront cost like a domain name and hosting, and at first, you need training if you are wanting faster results you need those paid posts as well, but anyone can learn it, it has a path of 6 to 24 months to get going strong, but every piece of content grows your results. Time leads to a massive future.

Bloggers can also leverage other people's content for even more explosive growth. By writing content on other blogs you build your following and get branded as an expert by other accepted experts in your niche. In addition, you generally get a profile link to your blog and sometimes a social profile as well. This takes aim at making a portion of the other blogger's captive audience or subscriber base into your own.

Guest posting also has the dubious honor of every blogger worth their salt wishes to do it so you can find a lot of free content being written for your blog by other experts. As their followers seek them out on new platforms they find your blog, as they write search engine-ready content on your blog thousands of other people find your blog by searching, and because it is your blog it has your content and your advertising.

Guest posting is done either on a once-off basis or if you are in high enough demand through syndication. Most of the Huffington Post and Mashable's syndicated columns are bloggers from around the web they pay to write for them on a schedule. Get Syndicated and now blogs and news sites are paying you to make you famous and send you traffic.

Now i bet you heard the opposite at least once this week but unlike those High Ticket Affiliate Coaches I personally generated a blog with in excess of 1 Million Page Views, have leveraged content, been paid to write guest posts, and when it comes to organic social media marketing for me I own the network and leverage all content on the site much like Facebook and Twitter do.

I don't spend my day on Messenger prospecting and convincing, and I pay affiliates and teach them how to use some of the earnings to either generate content or buy advertising to reach bigger profits. Fact is my success is based on your success as an affiliate so I have no reason to shoot myself in the foot and steer you wrong.
