Local Affiliate and PPC – The New Gold Rush

Posted on: October 28th, 2008 by Jeremy Schoemaker

Been working pretty hard on this months newsletter.  Its basically a walkthrough on how to create local affiliate programs and make a ton of cash.  We have been doing this for a couple of years now and honestly its been pretty simple.

In the Nov 1st newsletter its basically a total walk through.  Everything from how to negotiate a payout to what business are best suited for it.  I even throw in a bunch of real world examples and screen shots of our local campaigns.

I am giving you several days warning so make sure you are signed up to the ShoeMoney Newsletter:

Name:
Email:

Also in the newsletter we will be announcing the winners of the 2 laptops we are given away this month!

I just recieved the ALL NEW macbook courtesy of Marketleverage and also do not forget we will be giving away a Macbook AIR courtesy of QuickSprout (Neil Patel).

Good luck!

    Shoe, you should have the signup form redirect to your site rather than sending the user to an unbranded thank you page. Yes, I’m too lazy to hit the back button;-)

    The newsletter is officially one day away and I’m pumped…
    I’m also treating this as a trial to see what Aweber is capable of…
    Thanks Jeremy :)

    Psyched about the “local affiliate and ppc” part btw!

    Shoe,

    Thanks in advance for putting out a good newsletter with content. I’m subscribed to newsletters from several blogs and more often than not, the newsletter is just a rehash of stuff that’s been previously posted on their blogs. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us :)

    Very helpful for someone like me who lives far far away and has no one who can guide me in this kind of ventures. My upcoming network surely needs this tips. Looking forward for those tips.

    Thanks.

    FYI — I’ve tried to sign up to the newsletter via the boxes at the top of the page, but I’m not getting through….I’m getting timed out. I don’t have the fastest connection in the world, but you might want to take a look…….

    I just spoke to my tips group today how contests are good for business. How partnering for prizes make it a cost effective win-win. Everything I have been learning online.

    As the comments indicate, it is also good for community building.

    That Aluminum MacBook is beautiful. I’m so excited to find out who wins it, as well as the MacBook Air. Admittedly, I’m slightly jealous, but I will also be extremely happy for them. Good luck to all of those who are participating.

    Wondering if that local advertising stuff could be applied to Germany as well; at least “tons of cash” sounds pretty attractive…

    Oh well, the new notebook should come in handy.

    October 29, 2008 at 6:11 am

    I am definitely looking forward to the newsletter as I’m trying to get started with affiliate marketing. Though I’m not looking forward to the announcement of the winners as I know it will not be me. I never win anything. :)

    • Dick
      October 29, 2008 at 8:33 am

      I win prizes rarely too. However, I think that everyone can win. -)

    October 29, 2008 at 5:02 am

    You know what, this is strange.

    I’ve never considered signing up to your newsletter until now. It isn’t even due to the relevancy of the upcoming newsletter, it’s just… My eyes tend to just ‘look over’ CTA newsletter/rss buttons these days. Odd… but such a good idea on your behalf. ^_^

  62. Mario
    October 29, 2008 at 4:28 am

    Cool, just when I decided to buy a laptop…ill wait a few days more ;)

    Is anyone else having problems signing up to the newsletter?

    I’ve tried two or three different email addresses but never receive the confirmation email. I tried using the site contact form but also didn’t get a reply.

    Is it possible to get manually added Jeremy?

    • andrew
      October 29, 2008 at 6:27 am

      check your spam/junk folders or try not to use yahoo, gmail etc. (free mail services in general)

      • Matt

        Yeah, done that and I’ve used both my ISP email address and my own domain email address.

    Hmm…. very interesting! Looking forward to this one! I’ve often wondered how well it would work to promote an affiliate offer using old school methods – posting flyers on bulletin boards and that type of stuff.

    Or, spamming the diet section of Wal-Mart with colon cleanse offer flyers. :)

  71. Ben Adkins
    October 29, 2008 at 1:02 am

      • Melvin
        October 28, 2008 at 11:32 pm

    October 28, 2008 at 10:27 pm

    It totally makes sense to run local affiliate programs. I look foreword to seeing what you have to say in your step by step. There is the obvious sales perk of being able to talk to the businesses face to face!

  98. AffiliateObsession.com
    October 28, 2008 at 10:25 pm

    I am pumped to be a member of the newsletter. I am excited to have access to all the information coming up.

    Plus winning the laptop would be neat too :)

      I’m very interested as well! If it’s what I think it is, I’ve been interested in doing this for some time now.

      And it feels like forever since the contest started. I feel like a kid at Christmas waiting to see if I’ll get something. :)

      • River Girl
        October 28, 2008 at 11:00 pm
