MicroNutra Affiliate Marketing and Promo Tips

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

MicroNutra Health affiliates with the best conversion rates are sending traffic from review-style pages that include the benefits of a specific product along with information on the main ingredients(why the product works). Providing promo code AF10 so the customer can save $10 on their order is also an important selling tool.

We also have a new “instant savings” promotion option for MicroNutra Health affiliates to utilize. You will have to let me know if you would like to participate and then I will set you up in our system. Here’s how it works:

If you opt-in to this system, all visitors you send to our site will automatically receive a discount in their shopping cart. You have 2 options. You can offer $10 off on a purchase of $50 or more(which is equivalent to the AF10 coupon code we also offer). You can also offer 5% savings on a purchase of any amount.

If you are interested in this “instant savings” promotion please contact me and let me know which promotion you would like to offer to your visitors.

Keep in mind all visitors you send our way will receive the discount in their shopping cart. If the visitor closes their browser before purchasing and comes back later to buy, they will not receive the discount. The visitor must “buy now” in order to receive the discount.

Vetionx Affiliate Marketing and Promo Tips

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

Vetionx affiliates with the best conversion rates are sending traffic from review-style pages that include the benefits of a specific product along with information on the main ingredients(why the product works). Providing promo code NN10 so the customer can save 10% on their order is also an important selling tool.

Another key is to send visitors to a specific sales page based on whether your site is about dogs, cats, horses, or all pets in general. We provide text links and banners that do send traffic to each of the specific sales pages. For example if your site is about dogs and you’re promoting Arthro-IonX, you should send visitors to the Arthro-IonX for Dogs sales page.

Affiliate Marketing Business Models

Friday, December 26th, 2008

Four types of affiliate marketing business models work well with health and pet products: the content-based affiliate model, the review-style affiliate business model, the coupon or deals affiliate marketing model, and the shopping portal affiliate revenue model. Any of the four models can also be used in tandem with each other. For example a strategically placed coupon or deal can compliment a page full of content dedicated to a certain topic or product. Let’s take a look at the four affiliate business models in more detail including a few tips to help you decide which model best fits your style, interests, and available time.

Content-based affiliate model
A well-constructed content-based website is full of articles that cover one central theme. For example all-natural health supplements could be the site concept and the main topic covered on the home page. The home page could then link to several 2nd-tier pages that each cover a specific type of health supplement(i.e. weight loss, men’s health, women’s health, general nutrition, beauty, etc). The 2nd-tier pages could then lead to 3rd-tier pages about specific diseases, health conditions, or product reviews. The idea is to create an informative website that is easy to navigate for both visitors and the search engines. The content-based affiliate marketing business model is best-suited for people who have great knowledge or passion for a specific topic and would enjoy creating the content necessary to build a useful website that grabs and holds a visitor’s attention. The health and pet arena offers many niche markets that can be the focus of a full-blown content-based affiliate site. Text links weaved into the content generally convert extremely well for affiliates running the content-based model.

Review-style affiliate business model
The best review-style websites are those where the webmaster has actually tested the product being reviewed and can therefore give an honest recommendation based on personal experience. The review-style affiliate marketing business model can be set up much the same way a content-based website is structured with 3 tiers worth of tightly-related information. In fact a combination health or pet content-review affiliate model can be a strong force with the content building trust with visitors and the honest reviews, based on personal experience, convincing the visitor to click through to MicroNutra or Vetionx with the intent of making a purchase or at least learning more about the product with a potential purchase in mind.

Coupon or deals affiliate marketing model
There are tons of coupon and deal sites on the internet today with most of them covering a wide range of categories instead of focusing on a specific market or type of product. That situation presents an opportunity for affiliates who would like to dive into the health/pet arena or expand their efforts to include the best health supplement and pet health deals on the market. Both MicroNutra and Vetionx offer deals on all products with the standard deals being buy 2 get 1 free and buy 3 get 2 free. Vetionx even goes as far as offering a buy 5 get 4 free option. Those deals represent considerable savings for customers who choose to purchase more than one bottle or packet. The coupons and deals affiliate marketing business model can also be carefully weaved into a content-based or review website as another avenue of building trust and repeat visitors. With so many coupon and deal sites battling each other over a broad range of shopping categories, the opportunity to be an affiliate leader in a niche coupon/deal market is there for the taking. The health supplement and pet health markets offer many such niche market opportunities. MicroNutra and Vetionx offer ongoing deals on 46 total products, each targeting a specific health condition or need. Limited time coupons and deals are also commonly offered by MicroNutra and Vetionx.

Shopping portal affiliate revenue model
Similar to coupon and deal sites, there are hundreds of shopping portals on the internet that cover a wide range of shopping categories. The opportunity for affiliates to focus a shopping portal on a profitable niche market certainly exists, and the health supplement or pet health arenas both offer profitability and plentiful niche opportunities. Just like with coupons and deals, the shopping portal affiliate marketing business model can be carefully integrated into a content-based or review site as a way to earn trust and visitor allegiance.

Combination affiliate business models
While any of the above four affiliate models can be used by themselves to build a successful web business, it’s best to enhance your affiliate blueprint by blending in one or more of the other models into your main structure and style. For example if your main affiliate marketing business model is content-based, find a way to blend in a personal review and the latest deal regarding the health or pet product(s) you are recommending. On the same token if you’re running a niche health or pet shopping portal, find a way to include a few informative articles about the specific market your products reside in. Slide in a few personal reviews or recommendations and your site will be even more attractive.
