The best affiliates know when to back out even if they have been successful with a campaign, company or an approach. Sometimes a product will start to get a bad reputation or the company will start to deteriorate. You won’t want to hang around for the fallout. There’s no shame in the cut-and-run approach as it may just help you save your own brand.

Don’t forget Canadians! Canada is attached to the top of the United States, but sometimes it seems like most Americans forget it exists at all. If your affiliate company is willing to ship there, why not write a review just for Canadians? Include products that they might enjoy which will ship for a reasonable cost. They’ll love you for it!

When selling affiliate products, make sure your offers can compete in the industry. What offers do your competitors have? Do you have good enough margins on your product to allow the same or better offer? For shipped products, free shipping works especially well during the holiday season and can give you an edge.

The old saying, “Keep your friends close and your enemies closer,” can apply to how you deal with your workload for affiliate marketing. Do the things you hate doing every single day, because it’s likely you don’t like doing them because they’re a lot of work. If you get to it daily, you’ll find that they become less work as time goes by.
