So whys this? Well every time you established a new product to promote you would need to start from the beginning in establishing new traffic, a labor intensive task at any time. So what is key to the super affiliate's success?

1."Yes", you need to start somewhere that is with your first product promotion, however the truly successful affiliates understand the need to build a list and in such away they build a relationship with that list.

2.When they find the next product to promote if it is in the same niche they can promote to their list. Now don't get me wrong there will always be new traffic generation taking place, however if you develop a responsive list you should always find yourself making a decent

amount of commissions from your list. This is known as promoting back end products something that is only possible if you build your own list!

3.Over a period of time they keep replicating the process of adding more and more products to their promotions and keep building their list size. This of course increases initial sales commissions and at the same time is increasing the revenue from back end offers.

4.With the building of their list size opens a new and profitable market, that of joint venture invitations. Joint ventures involve in general a group of marketers with similar list sizes who agree to be involved in the product launch of one of the partners. A joint venture partner can normally expect to be paid a premium on the commission paid to normal affiliates due to the traffic they will generate to the new product and the list building that will take place for the product owner.

5.In time and experience the once normal average affiliate will gain super affiliate status and along side it the awe and business clout afforded such a position. The natural evolution is to develop your own product and benefit from the leverage provided from the joint venture marketing group established on previous promotions.

This is a summary of largely what takes place from some one who first starts out within affiliate marketing but who can see the larger picture and progress to super affiliate status. This generally would not be possible without the focus of building that list.
