What are the best high ticket affiliate programs for affiliates? Everyone likes to say their program is the ‘best’, but what makes a high ticket affiliate program a great one?
I was looking for a means to work from home several years ago and I simply wanted something that worked which could help me do this. I tried all kinds of programs (see digital profit course review) and found the one I now recommend, eventually.
Best High Ticket Affiliate Programs – Products
There are many programs which tick the boxes as far as them being legitimate is concerned. I tried several courses over the years and many of them fell by the wayside. It wasn’t until I discovered high ticket programs that things really changed for me.
High ticket affiliate marketing is one of the things I would say makes for the best program. With high ticket you can make progress far faster than with smaller valued items. With smaller priced affiliate products, it’s much harder to use paid marketing strategies.
Only high ticket programs give you the ability to earn enough to use many of the more pricy advertising platforms available on the internet. Of course you also are able to earn larger amounts with high ticket products.
Products valued at $1000+, can give you $400 on a single sale. With more expensive items, you can even make $10,000+ on a sale. This gives you much more leverage to spend money on paid marketing.
Perhaps you already know this. So what else makes for the best high ticket affiliate programs?
Best High Ticket Affiliate Programs – Subscriptions
Yes subscriptions are another massive plus when it comes to affiliate marketing. The best high ticket affiliate programs also offer subscription products within their sales funnel. With subscriptions you can earn ongoing commissions from each customer. Memberships and software products offer ongoing value for customers. By choosing these kinds of products to sell as an affiliate, you will be giving yourself a much greater chance of success.
Most affiliate products pay you once. You then need to keep finding more customers. Subscriptions pay you again and again so long as your customer continues their membership/subscription going.
Even if your subscription sale only pays you $20 a month, with 100 of these sales that gives you a regular income of $2000 a month. That’s passive income which means you’re getting paid for the work you have done previously.
So what else makes for the best high ticket affiliate programs?
Best High Ticket Affiliate Programs – Up-Sells
Can you imaging trying to sell a $30,000 product! I can’t! I wouldn’t know how to start. But with the right business model, as an affiliate, you don’t need to close sales like this. A series of up-sells and a built in (in-house) sales team will close sales on your behalf.
What’s an up-sell? If you’ve ever been to Burger King or McDonald’s you’ll have heard the ‘up-sell’ first hand. An up-sell is “Do you want fries with that?”, or “Do you want to go large?”
It’s a strategy that works because an existing customer is much more likely to purchase another product from you, than someone who isn’t even in your shop! Up-sells in affiliate marketing give your customer the choice of a variety of digital products and softwares to suit their needs. Some of your customers will only want the ‘basic’ package. Whereas others will want to spend more if it means more benefit, a faster service or less to do.
So, having a range of products within your sales funnel makes for a much better and more effective business model. You only need to promote the basic product and the sales funnel does the rest in conjunction with a team of sales people and consultants closing sales and providing support and information.
As an affiliate you can focus solely on the ‘front-end’ of the business – marketing. The rest is already in hand.
Best High Ticket Affiliate Programs – Training
Without the proper understanding of a high ticket business model, it’s easy to fail. You can assume all kinds of things about what it takes to become successful, which is the ultimately goal. A lot of these assumptions can be false!
I assumed I could continue doing things in the way I always had. But those strategies hadn’t brought me success. The right training and education is vital for success in any program and particularly with a digital business system which contains:
- High ticket items
- Subscription products
- Up-sells
- A built in in-house sales and consultancy team
- Multi-tier sales
Without the proper understanding, it’s easy to get caught up in useless activities which don’t drive your business forwards, or, which are too slow to keep you motivated. The best high ticket affiliate programs should solve this problem.
The program I recommend, The SFM (Six Figure Mentors) have recently partnered up with:
Microsoft Lynda (Under the Linkedin umbrella of companies) recently partnered with SFM as a way to offer their own 6,500 training courses as part of the SFM curriculum.
DigitalMarketer (The world’s longest standing and most highly respected B2B and B2C marketing training company) also partnered with SFM and now offer their own training as part of the SFM curriculum.
They also offer an online business community and live training seminars all around the world. In addition, there are regular video trainings and live question and answer webinars available on a continual basis. Without this amazing support network, I doubt I would have continued to work in an online capacity for long enough to start seeing positive results.
