You’ve probably seen or heard the Geico and Wachovia commercials touting their high customer satisfaction rates. Geico says it has a 97% customer satisfaction rate. Wachovia says it has the highest customer satisfaction ranking in its industry. At first glance, you might think that’s pretty impressive. But, let’s take a closer look at what a satisfied customer reall
Internet marketers and affiliates more so than a lot of other groups tend to be very good at a lot of things and masters of very few.
You should consider changing that. Here's why...
Dabbler Affiliates
When preparing the affiliate program for LearnToBeRich.com (a company that provides educational material, tools and training aids for all types of investing and business and personal growth and development), we found that there are really 3 types of affiliates.
The first type are the Dabblers. You know them because they've joined your affiliate program (and everyone else's). They sign up for everything (especially if its free) and might even do some very small promotion.
Don't get me wrong, they mean well. If you confront them, they'll tell you how they plan on doing this and that. Later on you'll find out that they signed up for 37 other affiliate programs instead of actually doing work on one.
Dabblers, do a little, expect a lot and are often disappointed at how the program failed them. They are still searching for an affiliate program that works and their income reflects this.
Apprentice Affiliates
Apprentice Affiliates take it a step farther... they might actually promote the program, a little. I find myself falling into this category often.
I find myself becoming an affiliate, doing some promotion, finding success, but never taking it to the mastery level. These affiliates make money; some even a liveable wage, but they're not the top earners.
Master Affiliates
Now, Master Affiliates really know what needs to be done. They're focused. They take action AND follow through to get it done.

This winter has been a challenging one for air travel. Hopefully, you haven’t found yourself on a cancelled flight. I wasn’t so lucky and while waiting on standby, I was frustrated by the lack of customer service from the airline. But then, I met one ticket agent (let’s call her, “Grace”) who “got it” and I salute three principles she used that made many stranded tr

Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is a phenomenon that is becoming a major discipline within business. CRM can be traced back to the airlines’ attempt to gather information about their customer flying habits in order to stop their high-fare airliners choosing low-fare carriers, however, the concept was invented even further back, when the shop owner knew all his c

So, which type of affiliate are you?
If you want to be Dabbler, that's fine. It is your choice. Just keep searching without actually applying what you learn or follow the plan for what you sign up for.
If you want to be an Apprentice, OK. Again, its up to you... just sort of do what the affiliate program coordinator suggests. Do not experiment and test and find improvements and what does and doesn't work. Assume, nothing really works and act accordingly. Be surprised when you make a little money and scoff it off as luck.
But if you want to be a Master Affiliate, then step up. Take chage and go for it. Fortune favors the bold. That's who you are, Master Affiliate.
