As you will have seen in Jeff’s Product Launch Formula training and in this article on running a Seed Launch, creating your own products, and then using a launch to release it, is the most reliable way to continue earning a great income.
But that’s only part of the story…
As we’ve talked about in the JV Launch post, one of the biggest benefits of a launch is the huge list-build you can do. When you have a group other people (your JV launch partners) sending you their best subscribers and those people are joining your email list, that gives you an incredible advantage both immediately and in the future.
The JV leaderboard in the lead generation contest for Jeff Walker’s Product Launch Formula launch shows that6 of the top 11 people on the leaderboard were dominating JEFF’S launch using the lists they built during their own launch. It’s proof that promoting affiliate products successfully can be a slam dunk once you’ve launched your own product.
Pretty cool eh?
So what these people are doing is what’s called an Affiliate Launch.
It’s not really discussed in the free training, but what it entails is using a sequence of email messages (often supplied by the merchant you are promoting) and ‘launching’ an affiliate product, even if that product has been around for years.
You use the same mental triggers to generate an incredibly high response.
Some of those triggers include:
- Reciprocity
- Anticipation
- Social Proof
- Proof
- Community
- Interaction and Conversation
- Scarcity
…all interwoven into an event-based marketing promotion.
In the case of Jeff’s launch, the product is only available for a few days each year, so the scarcity for the product itself is real.
But you can still create the same scarcity for a product or service that is available all year by offering limited-time bonuses during your Affiliate Launch, and then removing the bonuses after the event is over.
Very cool…
