The Difference Between Joint Venture Partners And
Affiliates
By Reed Floren

There is a lot of confusion today about what the real
difference is between joint venture partners and affiliates
– and to be quite honest with you – there really isn’t much
of a difference. A lot of things are the same.

Let’s compare…

Joint venture partners are generally big players in your
niche who you can really leverage to boost your business

Affiliates can be anyone who wants to promote your products
and services to make a buck.

Generally I don’t think there is much of a difference
between a joint venture partner and an affiliate.
Essentially joint venture partners are affiliates on
steroids. For this reason I will spend more time with joint
venture partners and help them maximize their sales. I
strongly suggest you do the same thing.

Joint venture partners will generally make you more money
since they have bigger lists, a better reputation or they
will do additional work to make the promotion a success for
you.

If you are trying to woo an extremely successful joint
venture partner you may want to give him a higher
commission rate or even a 100% commission if you are
certain that you will be following up with your new list of
customers.

I’d also suggest having an affiliate contest and doing
reciprocal mailings for your top joint venture partners.

In conclusion you are going to want to have both affiliates
and joint venture partners – but for the mean time I’d
suggest focusing your attention to joint venture partners
because they can exponentially build your business.
