The Rest Of The Review
So what am I talking about and why have I started this review out so forthrightly?
I've been around the internet marketing niche for 15+ years and have joined so many programs over that time, I have never experienced anything like this one.
Is that enough to get your enthusiasm flowing?
Do you want another link to join already? Sorry, I'm not going to give you one just yet, because you should read what it's all about and what you will get inside the hallowed walls first...
What Is Affiliate Triad?
Affiliate Triad is an almost done for you membership club of internet marketers of all levels of experience, from noobies to highly successful internet marketers who've been around since the year dot of online marketing (1995).
It's run by Jason Fladlien and Wilson Mattos of Rapid Crush fame. They've been around online marketing since about 2005. Now that says something about the program already, doesn't it? That highly successful internet marketers think so highly of Jason and Wil that they would want to be part of it too, even though they are already successful.
If you don't know who these two people are, Jason Fladlien started his business career at 10 years old doing odd jobs around his neighbourhood and progressed through painting houses to discovering online marketing in his early 20s to making $8 million in 8 days a bit later on. He has the focus of an eagle and the tenacity of a Tasmanian Devil hanging on to some food it's just found.
In short, if you were looking for a mentor to show you exactly how to be succesful at affiliate marketing, there's no-one better you should choose.
Wilson Mattos is the techie genius behind the curtains, although you do see a lot of him, when you step behind the curtains too. He spent his first career in the computing industry, first as a programmer, then working his way up to being director of the company. So he knows his onions when it comes to the techie stuff and can run a company too.
In short, Jason is a highly successful marketer and Wil is a highly successful businessman and technical genius. Both of whom you would want on your side, if you want to climb the ladder of success in affiliate marketing.
Why Affiliate Triad?
Have you ever tried affiliate marketing? If you have, you will know that it takes an awful lot of work to promote an offer:
- Select a niche
- Understand the people in that niche and what they want
- Find a solution to the problem they are talking about
- Find a suitable (preferably high ticket) product that implements that solution
- Try to get a review copy of the product or buy it yourself
- Go through the product and bonuses to know it inside out
- Go through the sales funnel to understand the process
- Write a review of the product and/or create a webinar
- Write a series of emails for your promotion funnel
- Add your emails to your chosen autoresponder
- Create a landing page, so you can build a mailing list or add to one you already have
- Go back to where you found the people wanting the solution (you did do that step before you started, didn't you?) and tell them about the solution
- Find other sources of traffic to send to your landing page or directly to the affiliate offer
- Rinse and repeat and hope you did every step correctly
Phew, I'm out of breath just writing that series of steps you would have to go through for each product you choose to promote.
Does it sound ominous? That's probably why most people give up on it shortly after starting affiliate marketing unless they have the tenacity of that Tasmanian Devil. Don't know what a Tasmanian Devil is? Google it. It makes one helluva noise! Possibly a bit like Jason, if he's disturbed while he's in creation mode. Just kidding. 😛
However, if you want to be successful with affiliate marketing, all those steps do have to be done.
There have been a lot of books and courses created over the years telling you what to do to be successful as an affiliate marketer, far less showing you how to do it and even less showing you both or doing the bulk of the work for you.
As I said earlier, I've bought my share of books and courses and bright shiny objects in my years around internet marketing. Some of them have been worth the price, but the vast majority were just filed under R for rubbish.
Having said that, some people have stood out like Martin Avis, Sarah Staar, Russell Brunson and Jim Edwards who have all stood the test of time and have some good books and courses showing you how to be an affiliate marketer.
But above all those, stand Jason and Wil. They have made 10s of millions of sales since they started Rapid Crush, both for the people whose products they have promoted and for those they have trained and taken with them on their journey.
You may be asking yourself, why have they been so much more successful than most others. Well, they do things a little differently. They don't just write a few emails, plonk up a landing page and send some traffic to it. They go all in on creating almost another complete offer and set of bonuses to give to those who buy through their link.
That's why no-one really has a chance of beating them to 1st place on the leaderboard of any promotion they decide to take part in. They crush it every time. Hence the name of their company: Rapid Crush.
Now, having told you all that, do you think you would take it with both hands, if Jason and Wil offered you the opportunity to partner with them on their projects and pocket some of the profits?
Would you jump at the chance to hang on to their coat tails and go along for the ride, knowing that you would be better of both financially and knowledge-wise at the other end?
I certainly did... and haven't regretted a single moment of the journey.
That's Affiliate Triad, your opportunity to hold onto the coat tails of two of the most successful internet marketers and go along for the ride of your life. All for a unbelievably low price.
OK, enough of the hyperbole. What's in it for you?
What Do You Get With Affiliate Triad?
As you might have gathered from my enthusiastic description of Affiliate Triad and its creators, this is a done for you membership, where Jason and Wil do all of the first 12 steps I outlined above, so the only thing you have to do is bring traffic to the offers they select each month.
Those offers range in price from $400 to $2,500. That means they are all high ticket offers and you get a minimum of 50% commission on each one. Which means you will be making between $200 and $1,250 for each sale you make. How many of these commissions would you want to make each month?
What's more, some of the offers have membership programs, which means you will also make a nice recurring commission every month without lifting another finger. How many of those would you want working for you each month?
Well I can make more than that from other affiliate programs, I hear you exclaim. What's so special about this one?
The community, I reply. It's the community that makes the big difference. Remember, I mentioned the membership club of internet marketers of all levels of experience. That's the big difference.
Most memberships are run via Facebook groups nowadays. IMHO, that's probably the cheapest and laziest way to run a membership. And it's the least useful for the members, because it's nigh on impossible to recap what was said more than a few minutes to a few days ago, depending on how active the membership is. That means newer members won't have the benefit of learning what was said by anyone previously, the longer the membership lasts.
Remember I said that Jason and Wil do things a little differently? Well, they chose to use Slack for the Affiliate Triad membership. It costs them a lot more, but it's certainly worth it from the members point of view. We have several chat channels devoted to certain topics like support, mentors advice, paid ads and announcements. They are all searchable, so anyone coming in at any point can find any golden snippets that have ever been said.
OK, so those are the technical features of the membership, however the BIG benefit of doing it this way is that we all feel like we are in a big family, so everyone actually feels like helping each other out. And we do, including some of us holding our own mini trainings interviewing the more experienced marketers who have shared some real golden nuggets of knowledge that are worth the monthly fee just on their own.
It's an amazing learning experience for everyone, even Jason and Wil. What, you say, don't Jason and Wil know it all already? On the contrary, they are the first to keep saying that they are always learning and adapting.
To illustrate: they both came into this program with the view that they would do the funnel creation and we the members would do the trafficking, as is normal for this kind of thing. However, when they found out that a lot of those who joined were newbies without lists, they promptly made one of their own products available for everyone to use to build their own lists. That was in month 2. Then in month 4, they gave us another one. And both of them came with a complete funnel with a proven closing rate.
Can you believe that? I couldn't when they did it, because I'd never seen anything like that before.
What's more is that you get preview access to all of the high ticket products before they are launched, so you can go through it, use it and knowledgeably talk about them to your subscribers and prospects.
Normally, this access is revoked after cart close, for obvious reasons. However, as they made a bit of a mistake on the first month and didn't make that clear enough, Jason and Wil admitted their mistake, went back to the vendor and asked if they would keep the access open to us members forever ... and they agreed. Now, I don't know about you, but I don't know of many internet marketers that have the clout to pull something like that off.
Are you slavering at the mouth to get in yet? If not, why not? You should be.
If you are, you can join up here.
If you aren't, what are you hesitating about? Do you have a question that I haven't answered? Ask away in the comments below.
This has been a bit of a long review, I know, but I hope my enthusiasm for Affiliate Triad has come across and enthused you to join me in this rare gem of a membership club.
Whether you are new to online marketing or affiliate marketing, are highly experienced at it or anywhere in between, you will find something for you behind the curtains of Affiliate Triad.
Don't think, just Join Now, before the price goes up again next month.
There are no upsells. You just join, get all the bonuses and then get going with setting yourself up ready to promote the next high ticket offer that has been all done for you.
If you have any questions once you're in, just ask away in the Slack channels and you'll be amazed at how many of us will jump in to help you, including me.
See you behind the curtain.
