But offering high or 100% commissions on its own is not enough.
Bear in mind that 100% at $7-$9.99 is a standard pricing and commission structure on WSOs. Every day there is a launch like that, so it doesn't make you stand out.
Without a reputation to deliver a quality product that converts, there's still a lot of risk that it could flop, and a wise affiliate knows this, which is why many affiliates stick to promoting partners they trust and have built a relationship with.
The reality is that if you are new to this will make many mistakes when launching your offers, and the bigger affiliates can see it coming. The only way to get over this is to launch and learn, and improve each time. You'll probably endure a flop or two, but you'll then start to get things right, and develop the trust and relationships with key affiliates.
Building relationships requires effort but WSO affiliates are NOT difficult people to reach.
Most provide contact details on their JV pages if they launch products, and they are in Facebook groups, Skype Groups, and can be reached through the Warrior Forum PM system.
Most people start the relationship by asking for a promotion outright. While it is certainly worth while to announce your launch to a lot of people, simply contacting someone about your launch is not going to be effective at getting the attention of many of the busier super-affiliates.
To do that you need to take the time to get to know key people, and help them. The easiest way to open the door to chat to an affiliate is promoting their products (most affiliates sell their own products), or doing whatever you can to help them (don't ask 'how' you can help them, offer precisely what you can do for them).
Naturally when you talk to an affiliate about what they are doing, promote their products, help them etc. the conversation will quickly lead to what you are working on, which then gives you the chance to describe what you have on offer - when you have been invited to.
The WSO space tends to not have any unwritten laws on promotion reciprocation. By that I mean there is not an expectation that if you promote someone that they MUST promote you back.
Instead it is more like, if you promote someone, then they should ideally promote you back IF your product fits, offers a good commission, has a great sales page, fits their list, does not conflict with any other promotions they have etc.
With each promotion you do, you are essentially filling the karma pot.
The WSO space is also filled with D, C, and B affiliates too, many who will be A player affiliates in 6 months time. It is very very easy to reach out to and chat with these smaller affiliates, and the 10-30 sales they can send, can soon add up, to start putting you on the map.
Some of my best affiliates are the ones who started around the same time as me and we've been on the journey together.
