1st getting affiliates is just like getting buyers you need to sell them on you and your idea.

2nd you need to go to adwords and find who is already selling what you have to offer and see if they would like to be a affiliate for your product and also sign up to be a affilate for there product as well.

3rd look at doing a follow swap with them.

4th you need to be able to give number that people can look at. Will it convert at 1%, 5%? What did the OTO convert at?

These are things I want to know before I do anything.

5th once you get 1 affiliate to promote for you take the resultes and tell other people what you have done and what they can expect. Seeing that other people did it is a huge factor.

6th THIS IS A BIG ONE...go find some ezines that your target affiliates might be reading and place a few ads in there looking ofr affiliates. This can be a huge money maker if done right.

7th find the target market were your product would fit with other products and add value. Get them to add you to the thank you page.....THIS ONE IS THE BEST AND EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW THIS IS WERE THE MONEY IS. THE THANK YOU PAGE.

8th provide a 2nd tier bonus for anybody who brings in a affiliate for you. This could be money or anything of value.

9th provide everything a affiliate could ever need to promote your product. Make it simple for them to work with you.

Look at the above link even though it is not done yet, this should give you a idea of what you can do for your affiliates.

10th make a list of your top dream affiliates and send them a letter in the mail telling them about yourself and that you want to work with them and what you can offer them in return.

11th just pick up the phone and call people who can help you and just get to know them.
