What is High Ticket Affiliate Marketing?
High-ticket affiliate marketing is the promotion of another company’s high-ticket product for a percentage of each sale that you refer (also known as your affiliate commission.)
The marketing for high-ticket affiliate offers is no different than how it is done for low-ticket offers. The main difference is that you make much larger commissions.
Let’s say that your income goal is $5,000 per month and you are recommending a product that has a $47 commission. You would need to make 107 sales every single month for that product.
However, if you recommend an affiliate product that has a $1,000 commission, you would only need to make 5 sales per month.
It is easier to make 5 sales versus 107 every single month.
The Best High Ticket Affiliate Niches
There are many high-ticket offers that you can explore. Some example niches that offer large commissions include:
- Travel
- Insurance
- MMO (make money online)
- Personal Finance
- Health & Wellness
The easiest way to find these types of offers is to search for them on YouTube or other social media platforms.
For example, go to YouTube and type in “high ticket affiliate marketing.” Click on the top videos and check out the video descriptions.
When you click the link in the descriptions, chances are they will go to a high ticket affiliate offer or a sales funnel. If it goes to a sales funnel, you can sign up and find out what offer they are promoting.
List all of the high ticket offers that interest you. After you have your list, begin researching each product and find out the details such as the commission offered, the product creator, and what the benefits of the product include.
NOTE: I have had the best results recommending products that I have personally used myself. If you can invest in the high-ticket product that you want to recommend, it is a good idea to do so. You’ll be able to provide a more genuine recommendation which may lead to hire conversions.
Getting Started with High Ticket Affiliate Marketing
There are three main steps you’ll need to take when getting started with high ticket affiliate marketing. These include:
- Choosing a high ticket offer
- Creating a sales funnel
- Generating targeted traffic
Choosing a High Ticket Affiliate Offer
I recommend choosing a high ticket offer that has an affiliate commission of at least $500. The high ticket offers I recommend have commissions of $800, $1,000, and $2,000.
You can find these types of commissions in the online education niche (primarily the MMO niche.) These are my favorite types of products to recommend because customers receive their products immediately since they are digital.
I used to think that it was impossible to make a high ticket commission but it isn’t. When you are generating new leads daily, it is possible to make multiple high-ticket affiliate commissions in a month.
Find a quality product with a high conversion rate and you’ll be well on your way to making high-ticket commissions.
Setting Up Your Automated Sales Funnel
The best part of doing high ticket affiliate marketing is that you can automate 90% of the process by using a sales funnel.
A sales funnel is a simple two-page website that helps you build your email list. The first page of your funnel collects your visitor’s contact details such as a first name and an email address.
The second page of your funnel is your bridge page where you warm up your visitors by letting them know about the product that you are recommending.
This is accomplished with a video or pictures and content or all three. I’ve found that making a short 1 – 2 minute video talking about how the product has benefited me works well for visitors taking action.
My bridge page usually contains a video of me and a call-to-action button below the video which is my affiliate link.
Generating a Steady Flow of Traffic
The final thing you’ll need to do with high-ticket affiliate marketing is create a steady flow of targeted traffic. You’ll need a traffic source and in most cases, multiple traffic sources.
You have the option to use organic traffic or paid traffic. I always recommend learning organic traffic first. The only investment you’ll need to make is your time.
Paid advertising can be very expensive and if you are new to it, you may spend a lot of money with no return on your investment.
Organic traffic can come from posting on social media or by creating a niche website (a blog.) YouTube is a great way to get a good amount of free traffic.
Blogging is how I got my first affiliate commissions and it is still my favorite form of organic traffic. When you learn some basic SEO (search engine optimization) skills, you can build a niche website that can generate traffic for years to come.
Conclusion
The key to becoming a high ticket affiliate marketer is learning the skills and applying them to your online business. This includes being consistent. It is difficult to have success with affiliate marketing if you are not consistent with your efforts.
