Teach don't sell.Those 3 words can make a massive difference to your business, whether you sell your own products or as an affiliate marketer.
Let me explain...People
don't like to be sold to. If they get a whiff that someone is trying to
sell them something, they will be instantly defensive and out of the
door faster than Usain Bolt running to catch the bus.
But this doesn't mean you can't get them to buy products.Instead
of trying to sell, teach them how to do something. In the process of
teaching them (for free) you use various tools that they will need. You
don't try and tell them how good the tools are, you just use them in the
process.
So now, when people are learning from you they see you
using the tools and will follow along and buy them via your affiliate
links.
You're not selling, you're simply teaching. And people
will be more receptive to buying things because you're not trying to
sell them.
