It doesn’t matter what you call them… super affiliates, joint venture partners, strategic alliances or simply “gurus”, they can help you grow your business rapidly and exponentially.
But, how do you get these “super affiliates” to promote you?
Where can you find them?
What do you offer them?
What are they looking for?
These are some of the questions I think people have about super affiliates.
But what question regarding super affiliates would you most like to know the answer to?
Let me know in a comment below… and I’ll compile the answers into a PDF report for you…
What about JV brokers? I’ve looked for them but not found many. It seems to me that someone who has the relationships already could be a big help, but maybe I’m just being chicken, and should do this all myself.
I’d like to know what it takes to really convince them to promote a product… or promote yours instead of promoting a competitor’s product.
I haven’t created a product yet so how can a super affiliate promote me?
When you are approached by someone who wants to JV with you, what kind of credentials or proof of experience can you ask for to know they are the real deal?
Testimonials and screenshots can all be faked these days and others they have worked with rarely respond to emails (or it takes them 4 weeks).

I have been told recently by Russell Brunson that you should ask the ‘gurus’ to help you to build a list of people by advertising to their list, but seems like begging to me! But lets face it you need a big list of people to send information to and get a response! JV partners are like you and me where they will do something if it is in their best interests! give them an incentive, make them see your point of view! sell yourself!
For me the biggest problem is finding JV partners for specific Niches. Within IM you can find lots but I work across different Niches so knowing how/where to find JV parners for ‘ANY’ Niche would be really useful.
I’d like to know the steps required to set up ckickbank to sell my product and if there is a way to offer banners to my clickbank affiliates.
I believe offering increased commissions is a good incentive, but how do you contact a “super affiliate” directly if you have no contact info?
Any “guru” or “super affiliate” can be checked out ahead of time by simply looking up their business license information. If they don’t publish a company name, address, email address, and telephone number, the odds are that they aren’t as reputable as they would like you to think.
Agreed, sometimes a telephone number is not appropriate on the website, but anyone joining one of their programs should be given at least a corporate contact number along with full mailing address etc. This is easily provided by any legitimate business. I know, I operate two full-time businesses and several part-time marketing businesses that are under the umbrella of my primary full-time business.
What I would like answered is why so-called “gurus” feel the need to be so secretive? It is funny to me that they think they are part of some little secret society, but in reality, they could be even wealthier if they would open up a little. Provide some “real” support to their communities of followers.
How many times have you joined some “guru’s” program and then tried to get real support from them? LOL Most of the time, support is a joke or non-existant at all.
I am currently looking for JV’s with graphics design expertise, PHP expertise, and webhosting expertise for a development that has been in the works for some time. What it turns out to be will please many people trying to make it online! Feel free to contact me through my website listed here and I’ll get back to you. I am looking for qualified individuals only that are willing to submit a real resume and JV on a potentially huge project to be opened to the public later this year.
Cheers for now!

I’d also like to know how to find super affiliates in any given niche that I’m in.
Hi Neal,
I’m coming out with http://www.twitterleadgeneration.com
Want to promote my product?
Mark
how can I star making money by working on the internet with all the affiliates companies I joined with?
I don’t have my own product – I am an affiliate. I want to show super affiliates and high profile internet personalities how they and their subscribers/visitors/customers can benefit by joining a free prog. It’s perfect for the credit crunch – it’s not selling anything, it saves people money and gives them the option of earning extra income. The JV partner will gain by promoting it and growing a team from which he/she earns residual income.
Q1) Can this be classed as a JV proposal?
Q2) It’s currently only in the UK but will soon launch in other English-speaking countries e.g. USA, Australia. Should I wait until it goes international or try to isolate JVs with UK lists?
Q3) Should I ask them to go onto an launch update list if they do not have UK lists – would they bother to sign up?
Q4) Is it best to send JVs to a website presentation that other affiliates may be using (not many) or send info in a more personal pdf or exe presentation?
How do you find super affiliates that promote a specific company, product, or website? How do you find super affiliates that promote a company, product, or website that is on an affiliate network like Shareasale, CJ, Google Aff Net, LinkShare, etc?
How can you get the Gurus to JV with you when you don’t have a big list of your own. I believe they are only going to support you if you have at least a 5,000 strong list.
Dear Neil,
I would love to sign on with an exclusive window or door
Company or siding exclusive installer. I provide professional services in installing those items, but I am a
home builder ando remodeler, etc… so menards, lowes or Home depot would be nice but not sure they would allow that. So an independent window, door or siding company would be great I would love to market it as a sales / Service how
How do you go about JV with supper affiliate without promoting/buying their products. Most times the GURU’S will give you condition either to buy or sell their product before you can JV with them or have at least 2000 leads.
As most writers have indicated, some of them do not provide contact numbers.
Neil,
I would love to have a marketing relationship with an independent Door, Window & siding company. I provide great professional building services but would like a particular line of certain products for sales and service.
And market on my web site.
Thanks for listening, eagerly await your response!

#1 Q: Do super affiliates like to promote real-world products?
You usually hear about this ‘super affiliate’ thing being for ebooks, eproducts etc. like what all is on clickbank. But my product is a physical item that’s shipped to people’s houses which they then consume.
I also agree with Charles (above) on the whole ‘you must promote or buy their stuff’. How to get around that? Are there really people out there who want to promote something that’s not theirs?
I am just saying ‘ditto’ to the question above…
How do I make money with the quality affiliate programs that I have joined?
Thanks!
Peggy
How are super affiliates found in my region and field? Does it take a lot of teachnical computer know-how? I am from the Philippines and into spa, massage ans wellness industry.
Thanks for the input.

I want to know how to become a “super affiliate”!
I’m a newbie to affiliate marketing so I guess my starting point would 1st be getting my feet wet by 1st promoting other reputable products? I’d appreciate education on finding the right products.
Thanks.
How do you get super affiliates to promote a non-internet marketing product?
The main challenges are;
a) Where can I find these super affiliates
b) Obtaining partner status
c) SOme easily recognisable mark for partner
d) Content : Standard content with customisable areas for own website
e) Guarantees
Hi Neil
We have a gift website. Our top selling product is a Year of Birth CD and/or DVD. They feature music and the top news and events from a chosen year. Years 1929 to 1991 available. They come with a blank greeting card. In effect a gift and card in one.These are fantastic gifts for people born or married in a chosen year.
We are interested in partnering with so called super affiliates to lift sales but how do you actually find these people? Do they all hang out at some particular website?
Regards
Helen & Nigel Herbert

Hi Neil,
Your timing is good!
I am about to give away one of my products with a OTO. I guess this is what the JV partners are looking for??
My goal is to build my list from this and hopefully generate a small percentage from sales too from the OTO.
I have subscribed to most of the guru’s and full time Intenret Marketers too (including your good self). I am going to attempt to offer this to all!
However, it is finding the right approach to the JV’s and how to contact them as most of the emails I receive are non returnable email address’s, I will try their Blogs for contact info.
The other challenge is, they would have not of heard of me and may not even open the email! Very frustrating as this, I believe, is the best way to get started with a product and JV partners.
Cheers
Sean
Once you’ve done all the prep work (and that includes writing all the affiliate promotional material as well), beta tested the product and made sure the delivery system works you then have the nagging doubt that nobody will bother to promote this to their list.
It’s the easiest thing in the world for an expert with a large list to fire off a pre-written email with his affiliate link inside it and make a few thousand on the course of half a day, but how do you get people to do that?
My own NEW product is wonderful, and should sell itself by its own merits, but do other people know that?
Perhaps a database of people with large lists in specific niches, matched by a database of product creators (authors, I suppose) in their specific niche, would be a good idea. Actually the latter database is already there in the form of Clickbank and PayDotCom, but we definitely need to address the former.
Best,
Gordon
- How to contact potential partner without looking spammy? (Give sample email and phone/Skype call.)
- How to make our JV offer stand apart from the comptetitor’s?
Many People signed up for so many programs with so much expectations and yet you have never being able to make a dime out of them all while some people are screaming about them making over $5,000 in the same program you signed for?
These people called “super affiliates” are just ordinary people like you but they do things differently from the rest of the crowd.
How do I create a product?
It would be handy to be able to find affiliates in a particular niche quickly… thanks!
We have a very narrow niche, selling custom trailers to motorhome owners, who are also owners of the Mercedes smart fortwo micro-car.
We want to work a JV to increase sales. Ideas?
As a JV Broker, how do you create an incentive for a List Owner to promote a product that already has an Affiliate Program associated with it?
In other words, why should he promote it through you if he can just simply join up as an Affiliate and promote it directly?
Affiliate marketing is an Internet-based marketing practice in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought about by the affiliate’s marketing efforts.
My profits Affiliate marketing since I started applying everything I’ve learned from you. I was a complete newbie one year ago, but I made $100,000 in 8 months! Its miracle to Affiliate marketing.
Super affiliates can help me grow my business directly? I think this is a fantasy.
Hi Neil,
Is it not case of having proved yourself and your product first?
Meaning, you show that you personally have made some decent sales with the product and that there is a market for it.
Then, the potential ‘JV’ would have a look at the quality of your product and only then when they are satisfied it’s good enough with enough people wanting it would they consider promoting it to their own list.
There would also have to be a big financial incentive for them too. No one will risk promting junk to their hard earned list and they also won’t do it for nothing.
Big fish never help small fish, law of nature
I hope to find a super affiliate guru.In my niche,it’s so difficult to find one.
hello here i m newbie. How can i earn money with affiliated programming system….
Super affiliates means the same thing for every post and that is to catch as much number of traffic as you can.
Neil,

Mine have been mentioned already.
