Thanks for checking out this training, which will show you 7 powerful ways to increase your sales and commission while promoting any affiliate product in any niche.
These are battle-tested methods I've used to generate hundreds of thousands in commissions and win affiliate contests.
⚠️ Before You Start
Most affiliates fail before they even begin. Not because they picked the wrong offer — because of the four mistakes below.
This page fixes that — but only if you actually follow it.
⚠️ Read This First
We're very selective with approvals. That's not to make things difficult — it's to protect the brand, the conversions, and the affiliates who are serious.
We're looking for affiliates who are actually going to promote.
We do not approve:
When you buy, you immediately show intent, understand the product, and can create real content — proof of purchase, genuine reviews, real bonuses. That's how top affiliates operate.
This is important. We don't give review access. That model is outdated and abused.
The model that works today is simple:
Affiliate Tip #1
Our most profitable promotions are the ones which we put the most thought into.
This does not necessarily mean more work, just planning better and thinking of a better strategy that will make the promotion a success.
In general, I'll plan out my promotion 2-3 weeks in advance and usually once per week, I'll decide to put together a review video and an exclusive bonus.
A few days before the launch goes live I'll be consistently thinking of the best way to present the product to my audience — keeping in mind, that everyone's list is different.
My list tends to like more advanced methods and products whereas other lists might prefer newbie related products, or be geared towards offline or consulting.
Once I've found the right angle — which can at times take minutes and other times I might need to ponder on it for a few days — I move on to the bonus. We'll talk about that more in Tip #3, but it's something that you can ponder on.
If you can answer all these questions BEFORE creating your bonus page and review video, everything else will fall into place very easily.
Now get that thinking cap on.
Instead of sitting there trying to figure all this out manually, ⭐ Results With Kevin AI can generate your angle, build your email sequence, and create bonus ideas in minutes.

Affiliate Tip #2
This is where a lot of people get it wrong or have been taught wrong in the first place.
Heck, I'm pretty sure I spent 6 years making the same mistake.
You pick an offer, you mail your subscribers and a few sales trickle in. You're seeing below $1.00 EPC and you're thinking your subscriber list is not into this offer.
Now, this is where you make the situation a lot worse and lose a lot of money.
You skip the evening mailing as you think the offer is not converting. You skip mailing your list the next day as this was also your set promotion. On the following day, you repeat it again with a different offer, many times getting the same result.
So what you thought you were doing right, is actually affiliate marketing FAILURE.
You emailed them a brand new offer that they knew nothing about and asked them to whip out their hard-earned cash and pay for it. You never followed up, so their only view is that it was not a good enough offer to remind them about.
So when you put yourself in the subscriber's seat it's easy to see why your promotion flopped.
You email your subscribers informing them about the offer before it goes live and presell the offer.
Once the offer goes live, email everyone with details about your exclusive bonus.
You follow up in the evening reminding them about the offer, showing that you have confidence in the offer and that it will help them.
You continue to follow up with emails for 3-5 days pushing home all the selling points, answering questions about the offer, and reminding them that it's a limited time offer and your bonuses will be removed.
You push home the close faster than Usain Bolt with at least 3 emails on the final day.
The result: A successful promotion, contest prizes and a tonne of commission.
Pick an offer, put in a solid effort, and stand behind it with confidence and bank.
It's more fun and easier to rinse and repeat this system than any other.
Affiliate Tip #3
In Tip #5 we talk about the review video, but in this tip I want to talk about the bonuses you produce to YOUR list. Remember, every list is different and you should have an idea of what your list is most interested in.
This is one of the reasons many product creators no longer produce bonus pages for their launches. They know and understand that a custom unique bonus page will deliver better results.
My best results always came from a custom bonus report or training video. Take this report as an example — it took me 4 hours to write. If I used this report as a bonus for a product, no one else could compete with me if they really wanted the report. The only way to ever get the report would be to purchase the affiliate product from my link.
Years ago I created a very short report called "11 Questions To Success" as a bonus for an affiliate promotion. Years later we're including it as a bonus for our products and to build our list. Putting effort into creating content always pays off.
Look back at everything you've created as a marketer — training videos, reports, software, masterclasses, etc. Everything you see can be used as a bonus.
Don't worry about your customers getting annoyed if you're giving it away as a bonus. It's common in our industry. If they have the products, they'll jump straight to check out the offer. If they only have some, chances are they'll be inclined to purchase the affiliate offer in order to access the rest.
Stocking up a page with a bunch of PLR that you just downloaded, in general, does not help. You'd be better sending directly to the sales page in most cases.
But carefully selecting 3-5 bonuses that will help your subscribers get better results with the offer you're promoting will help you increase your results by 400%.
Again, proven and not just theory.
🎁 Bonus Builder AI creates bonus ideas instantly, builds full bonus pages, and generates supporting emails and posts. Instead of spending hours, you execute fast and still stand out. Stop skipping promos because the bonus took too long to build.
Affiliate Tip #4
In Tip #2 I mentioned the importance of standing behind your promotion with confidence and sending between 8-12 emails for a solid promotion.
I've timed my emails so we're targeting people at various hours throughout the day regardless of what part of the world they live in. For our Project Restart launch, this would be my email schedule:
This schedule only pays off if you know which emails actually drove sales and which traffic sources converted. 📈 WP Conversion Tracker shows clicks, EPC, conversions, and GEO data — drops on any WordPress page in 4 minutes, no code, no Google Tag Manager. Turns guessing into decisions.
Affiliate Tip #5
It's not my intention to offend anyone with this tip or try to be a smartass. My goal is to help you get better results.
Yes, of course, everyone should be improving their skills, and the best way to improve is practice. But when you have got an offer that is already an easy sell, which has already been produced by a professional marketing team and already includes bonuses, you can skip the bonus page and send directly to the sales page.
Practice more recording training videos. Improve your marketing. Learn copywriting. Learn more about what the marketplace wants.
For those with experience doing review videos, who can produce an exclusive bonus, and/or have a list that regularly gets review/bonus videos — I highly recommend putting some solid effort into creating something special for the offers you plan to promote.
Affiliate Tip #6
You blast out an email and it completely flops. It gets half the open rates compared to the previous email. You know straight away you're only going to earn 50% of what you'd normally earn in commission.
Sucks right? …Or does it?
I tend to look at the positive side of things and keep my mind on the numbers. The email flopped meaning a large percentage of my audience never saw the email or the offer.
They never opened the email — chances are they never even saw it.
Change the subject. Modify the content. Change your email address if you wish. Email to unopens.
Once you're emailing unopens like this, you should not see any increase in unsubscriptions, you've less work to do, and you're getting your message in front of more people. You're sending your emails at different times with the goal of being at the top of the inbox when your subscriber checks their email.
So next time an email flops, smile, learn from it, press resend and you're back on track.
Affiliate Tip #7
Winning the affiliate contest with transparency.
They love you. They joined your list because they were curious or purchased your product, but they open your emails and click on your links because they love you, or at least have some sort of respect for you. :)
There is a trust and a bond there which should not be broken — and that's why I would only use this method once a year. But anytime I use it, it's legit and it works.
If you recall my killer email schedule in Tip #4 — after promoting the offer for 3 days, it's time to give it an extra boost by adding an additional bonus.
Here you can include details about the contest, and explain that this is one of the reasons you are pushing the offer so hard. Do so in a careful way.
"I'm now 3rd on the leaderboard stuck between top marketers which I really respect, and I want to thank everyone who purchased from my link.
This is a contest that I would love to win, it's an outstanding product and I'm going to ask for your help to make that happen.
To make the deal even better for you, I've added some additional bonuses. It's not often I do something like this, so don't miss out.
See My Review Page Here & Check Out The Extra Bonuses"
Again, do not lie to your subscribers. Anyone can check out the leaderboard and keep up with the social media posts relating to the launch.
If you're the little guy taking on the big guys — they are rooting for you. If you're a big guy taking on another big guy — they are rooting for you as well.
If you use this method on the 2nd last day of the launch, you can continue to push it home in the closing emails.
Affiliate Tip #8 — Bonus
I'll save the best for last — and as a bonus for you.
The majority of times I win a big affiliate contest, I've always used paid traffic. But let's talk about free social traffic first.
Chances are you've got friends on your Facebook list interested in marketing. You might have a fan page, a Facebook group, a YouTube account and whatever else.
Most affiliates use their email list as the only source of traffic, which is what I call leaving a lot of money on the table.
Some people will get much better results, others may be less, but here's an example.
Who does not want an extra 25% commission? It could be a deciding factor in the contest, but either way — it's more money in your pocket.
So now I've got 80 sales, and let's say each sale gives me $25 in instant commission.
I can afford to spend $25 to get one sale. The offer is converting at 10%, which means for every $25 I spend, I can make 2.5 sales — once my traffic costs less than $1.00 per click.
Even if the offer converts at 5%, I'm still up $62.50.
Of course, the best results here will come from retargeting your existing subscribers or website visitors, people who like your fan page, etc.
Google Ads and YouTube Ads are another quick way to get more traffic to your affiliate offers and make more commission.
Going from 60 sales (email broadcast) to 105 sales (with social media and paid traffic). Of course, you can scale up the paid traffic as much as you want — as long as the offer is converting.
