Default What is the effective way of earning in affiliate marketing?

Residual Income or One time Commission?

Affiliate marketing income is earned in two ways, you can earn either by residual income or the one time commission income.

One time commission income is earned when a customer purchased products/goods or services in a one time basis, or it will take time before the customer repurchased the products/services, could be buying a computer, a cell phone or could be purchasing a refrigerator. One time commission income enables a marketer to profit more by selling a product, especially if we are talking about high end ticket products.

A residual income is a continuous income paid to a marketer by a client. It is said to be that residual income is the best income when it comes to affiliate marketing because recurring income that a marketer received after the marketer’s sale has been made. It comes in a specific amount at a specific interval of time, usually a month. Residual income could be low, but the income is continuous and the work is only once.

I have studied and researched these two ways of generating an income in affiliate marketing, which enabled me to formulate and come up with a very good question. What is the most effective way of earning in affiliate marketing? Is it earning in commission based income or earning a residual based income?

Being on this industry for a quite period of time, made me realize that there is an importance of acquiring the two ways of earning in affiliate marketing. Two reasons such as:
a.) This enables a marketer to set financial goals in a constructive way. – Having set marketer’s financial goal in a constructive way enables one to manage money matters better, or earning both commission based and residual based would make a great deal, you can earn on a daily basis and on a monthly basis. .
b.) This enables a marketer to target 2 types of buying customers – could be a one time purchaser or a repeat customer.

It is evident that a marketer should learn the importance on how to differentiate the two ways of earning in affiliate marketing, in order to establish an income.

Earning in affiliate marketing is best acquired in two ways or either ways, as long as it is giving good benefits to a marketer, as long as the affiliate marketing program that a marketer joined in has these capabilities:The marketer’s task is just to promote other people’s product/s, the marketer doesn’t have any responsibility for after sales service for the product, the marketer does not deal with shipping or storage or packaging or inventories. The merchant deals with that. the marketer can promote one product, several products; or even drop a product if it is not satisfactory.
