Hey, Jeff Lerner here. What's going on? In this video, we are
going to look at five of the highest paying affiliate programs on the
internet. If you've seen any of my other videos about affiliate marketing, you
know that I am a huge fan of what's called high ticket affiliate marketing.
This basically means selling products that can pay a substantial commissions
anywhere from several hundred dollars up to thousands or even $10,000-plus
commissions. High ticket affiliate marketing is the place to be. It's how I
was able to pay off $495,000 in debt in my first 18 months online. It's how I
generated $10 million in commissions in my first five years online. And it’s
really the only type of affiliate marketing that I teach in my current
community, ENTRE Institute, in the mastermind that I run.
Like I steer everyone to high ticket because the reality is it’s really not
any harder to create a customer if it's the right customer, if it's, you know,
an appropriate person who's interested in the offer. It's not any harder to
sell a $20,000 product that pays a couple thousand dollars commission than
it is to sell a $200 product that pays a $4 commission. Again, it's just finding
the right people that are interested in the product, making a good offer and,
you know, helping make the sale. In the case of affiliate marketing, you're not
even the one having to make the sale. They're buying it from somebody else and
you're just getting a referral. So that said, let me introduce you to five high
ticket affiliate programs. These are five programs that literally, if my son
or my daughter or any other family member came to me and was like, listen,
Jeff, I've got this idea. I want to do this thing. I need some money. Maybe I
lost my job. I need to get going quickly. What can I do? These are the
programs that I would steer them to. So that's what I'm going to steer you to as
well.
Okay. So for starters, let's look at a company called Liquid Web. Liquid Web is
basically a web hosting and technology platform. Obviously, there are millions
and millions of online businesses, millions of millions of billions and
billions of websites, and they all need hosting, right? And they all need some
basic tools. Liquid Web is a great hosting company. It’s well-established.
It’s been around a long time. You don't have to worry about the quality of their
services. But they have probably in the industry,, the web hosting industry,
they have the best affiliate program that I've seen. I'm on their website. If
you go to LiquidWeb.com/partner-community/affiliate,
and I'll put that link, these links in the description, you can see it's really
easy to just sign up for their affiliate program. You click here. It's powered
through Impact Radius which is the big affiliate network that powers a lot of
top affiliate programs.
And this shows you their commissions right here. So for like a basic managed
WordPress platform, they're going to charge, you're going to generate $150 to
$2,000 depending on the size of the purchase. You can read some of the
details here. You basically earn 150% of the monthly hosting costs with $150
minimum. And one of the things you'll notice is these are managed hosting
products. So if you go to GoDaddy and just kind of throw up a basic website
starter site for your photography business or something, you can get
hosting much cheaper. You can get hosting for $15, $20 a month. Obviously,
nobody's going to pay you hundreds or thousands of dollars for something that
costs 15 or 20 bucks a month, at least not unless they stay a customer for a
really, really long time. But this is what's called managed hosting. And so if
you have a bigger business, like for example, I used to have a digital
agency.
We had somewhere around 2,000 website customers that hosted their sites on our
servers. So we needed managed hosting. We didn't just want to have like basic
hosting account because, you know, we had performance requirements where like
if there was an issue, we needed to call someone, we needed a what we call or
what I called hardware as a service, right? Where there's not just the
physical hosting, but it’s a management service or a support service that can
help you run it. So these higher end hosting packages that pay the bigger
commissions, these are managed hosting packages or service packages for
businesses. And that's why you get such big commissions on them because they're
just higher end products. They do have a $29 managed WordPress one-site customer
package, and that's actually pretty low cost. But look at that. You get $150
commission with that. But if you refer $400 a month dedicated customer, you get
a $600 commission.
So they're basically taking 150% of the first month fee and paying that out as a
commission. Also, if people do prepaid plans, like they prepay a year in
advance, you get a 50% bonus on that as an affiliate. And you can kind of see
how it breaks down. But this is where I get really excited where you've got
commission potential up in the $3,000, $5,000, $7,000 range. And, you know,
again, for me as a, like when I had my agency, whoever referred me to my
hosting company, they could have easily made thousands and thousands of dollars
because we were an enterprise level client. And there were, there's a lot of
people like that out there. Like if you create content, you become an authority
on, you know, web or technology or even just small business in general, you're
going to be amazed at how much businesses need and how much they need
to spend on good technical infrastructure for their websites.
And you just simply put your links up and refer them to those platforms,
Liquid Web, for example, and you can make hundreds or thousands of dollars.
The next high ticket program that I wanted to show is called VIP Cars, and
it's a car rental service. And you might be thinking, well, I've never heard of
VIP Cars. You know, is it as good as like Alamo or Hertz or Budget or Dollar
or National or Enterprise or whatever? Well, listen, the reason you've heard of
those is because they are, you know, they're big rental car companies that
have big marketing budgets. So they spend their own money to drive
awareness. That's why you've heard of them. They have big brands and they have
big marketing budgets. The difference with companies that invest a lot in
their affiliate programs, the reason they're doing that is so that they don't
have to go out and spend a lot of their own money upfront to create awareness of
their brand.
Rather they're paying affiliates to acquire them customers directly. So it's
actually in some ways a more efficient use of marketing dollars to say, hey,
rather than spending a lot of money on branding just to hope that the next time
somebody rents a car, they think of us, we're only gonna spend money directly to
acquire customers. And we're going to pay affiliates for doing the work of
generating us customers, right? It makes sense in that way. That's why maybe
you've never heard of VIP Cars. But at the same time, that's why there's such a
big opportunity there. You know, basically VIP Cars pays 50% to 75%
commission on car rentals, van rentals, etc. And they have over 25, I'm sorry,
over 20,000 locations worldwide. So right here at VIPCars.com/affiliate, you
can kind of see the basics on it. But really, I mean think about what people
pay to rent cars.
I know every time I travel, you know, if I'm gone for a week, I'm probably
spending $500 to $1,000-plus to rent a car. If somebody was, let's say how to
travel blog or a travel website or maybe published an eBook on, you know, things
to do in on your trip to London. And they just had a little link in there for
the VIP Cars car rental engine, they're going to make 50% to 75% of what I pay
to rent a car. That's big money, right? So I pay $1,000, you’re going to make
$500 to $750. Very, very powerful. And when you're affiliate marketing, you
don't just want to look at the commission the product pays. You want to
look at the quality of the product provider so that you know that you're
not referring your valuable audience to substandard products or services.
There's frankly, some products out there that pay really high commissions, but
they're crap products or they're fly by night. They're probably going to be out
of business in 12 months. So clearly, I'm not recommending any of those. And
they can do a lot of damage to you, to your reputation if you're the one that
referred people to them. But these are companies that are solid, and they're
going to be around for a while and they pay great commissions. And then the
other thing to think about is how big is the audience, right? Like if you're
promoting a product in a niche that's like only people who, you know, let's
say they farm goldfish, that's just not a huge market. And so even if you find
some great product that pays a lot of commissions, you know, how many people
in that market are going to be able to afford that product to generate the high
commissions?
And, you know, it's just not a huge space. You're fishing in a very small
pond. So I'm giving you products that pay high commissions, that are backed by
strong companies and that are in really, really big niches where there's a lot of
people. And in particular, there's a lot of people who are willing to spend
enough money on high ticket products that can generate high ticket
commissions. Clearly, web and technology like hosting, that's a huge one. This is
travel. Travel is a huge one. So those are the three things to think about. You
want to say, you know, how much commission does it pay, how solid is the
company that pays the commission and how big is the industry or the niche that
that company operates in? Now, the third high ticket affiliate program that I
want to show you is in the finance niche.
Again, huge industry. Millions and millions of people looking for good
financial information. And this is a company called Capitalist Exploits that
basically sells financial research. Obviously, well, and you may not know
this, but the financial research category online is huge. Some of the
biggest, most profitable publishers and marketers online are in this space, you
know, whether it's anything that's published by Agora Financial, Stansberry
Research. These are massive companies that have millions and millions of
paying customers that essentially pay them just for financial information.
Capitalist Exploits is no different. And their actual affiliate signup is here at
CapitalistPartners.com. And basically, they're simple. They pay 50% revenue
share. One of the nice things about their company is they're not actually
publishers or marketers. They're actual financial professionals that just write
reports and sell it as research. But they, and they basically only have two
products.
That's another thing I like about it. It's really, really simple. They have
two products that pay 50% commissions. One of those pays a $788 commission.
That's just the commission. The price is obviously twice that. And the other pays
the $1,750 commission which is on a $3,500 product. And that's it, two
simple products. Research. You know, the nice thing about finance is typically
people that are interested in financial research, they have money or else they
wouldn't be worried about how to invest it. And if they have money, they're
willing to pay for research because there is such a good return on
investment for them to invest in good research. Because if they get good
research, they can make good investments and make far more money on their money
than what they paid for the research. So it's a pretty easy sell. If you have any
sort of an audience that has spillover into the finance niche or the investing
niche, this could be a really, really great program for you.
The next high ticket affiliate program that I want to take a look at is a
company called HubSpot. If you're not familiar with HubSpot, it's basically an
all-in-one marketing platform for businesses. And I actually used to use
HubSpot. I used to have a part of my old digital agency was called an inbound
agency where we did more sophisticated brand management and content syndication
campaigns for bigger businesses. And we used HubSpot. It's great for managing
like a lot of content, a lot of analytics, measuring customer
attribution and life cycle value and all this fancy jargony stuff, right? But
basically, if you want to provide any kind of marketing services to bigger
businesses, businesses that let's say do, you know, a million dollars a year
plus in revenue which is not a huge business, but, you know, it's bigger
than I guess maybe your typical mom and pop.
If you want to provide marketing services to those kinds of businesses,
HubSpot is a great platform for running your own agency. But it's also, the cool
thing about it was every customer that came to us needing those higher end,
more hands-on robust marketing services, they also needed a platform with which
to manage their servers. So we would actually say, okay, the first thing you
need to do get signed up with HubSpot. And then we use HubSpot, you'll use
HubSpot, we'll be able to manage your HubSpot account. And that'll be the tool
that allows us to do all this work for you. And frankly, even if you fire us as
your agency, you get to keep HubSpot account so you have all the resources
there even if you end up wanting to go on and do this stuff yourself. It's a
really actually pretty cool platform.
One of the industry leading marketing platforms. This is their affiliate page.
And you can see right here, you know, they basically have three different
packages that, you know, businesses can sign up for. And the commissions on that
are $250, $500 and $1,000 a piece. We had, gosh, I don't know. I think we had
eight inbound clients was the most we had at any one time. And they were all
on HubSpot and four of them were on the thousand dollar package. It could be as
simple as creating a blog post that has a review of HubSpot as a marketing
platform and then just having a link to HubSpot. And if somebody reads the blog
post and goes, oh yeah, that looks like a good platform for my business and
signs up, you get paid. You don't have to do anything. And the other thing I
like about that is it has a 90-day cookie window which basically means if
somebody clicks your HubSpot link and they go check it out and then maybe
they're doing another month of research or they're not ready to buy yet because
a lot of times businesses don't make immediate purchase decisions.
Like if you're referring people to an Amazon link, you know, consumers are
pretty impulsive, right? You could probably send them there and reasonably
they'll buy that day or maybe the next day or whatever. But businesses are a
little more methodical or sometimes they're waiting until it's the buying
window that's prescribed in their budget. And that's why I think HubSpot
gives you a 90-day cookie so that you're not going to refer somebody there and
then lose the sale because they took a month to pull the trigger. Okay. And the
fifth and final high ticket affiliate program, if you know me and know my
business or know my work, this will not surprise you, ENTRE Institute. This is
my own online education company. We teach entrepreneurship. We teach how to
do business in the modern economy. And I've done plenty of videos talking about
ENTRE at length.
This isn't going to be one of those. But basically, one of the things I will say
about ENTRE, we set out to not only disrupt education and create, you know,
I believe the best entrepreneurial education in the world but also one of
the best affiliate programs in the world. I'm here at
Affiliates.EntreInstitute.com. I stand by this statement that we are the
highest paying affiliate program on the internet. I say all the time, if
somebody's got one that pays more or pays out better percentages, please
challenge me. And I say better percentages. I mean the combination of
percentage plus just gross size of commission. Please challenge me, but
nobody's taken me up on it. So I'm standing by it and saying we're the
highest paying affiliate program on the internet. Super easy to sign up. And we
basically pay really, really simple, 60% on front end sales, 20% on backend
sales.
That means commissions can range anywhere from $24 to $12,000 or more in
some cases. And our product suite is basically we have front end courses and
books, we have more robust digital courses, we have community memberships,
we have coaching programs and we have a high ticket mastermind, really immersive
experiential programs. And you know, you put all that together and you have a
really great formula. Look, it was built by me, a professional affiliate
marketer. It stands to reason I built it to be the affiliate marketing program I
wish I'd always had to promote. But the other cool thing about ENTRE is it's in
the entrepreneurial education space. So if you're an affiliate marketer and
you're learning how to do this work to generate this income, the nice thing
about being associated with ENTRE, and you don't have to buy ENTRE’s products
to promote the affiliate program, but let's say you're involved with ENTRE.
You might go, Hey, you know what? I'll bet I could get more sales if I had more
education on how to do digital marketing or how to do blogging or create YouTube
channels or, you know, get my content to rank in the search engines or whatever,
right? And we have courses that teach that stuff. So it's kind of a nice
synergy where you can not only make money as an affiliate, but you also have
access to training that can help you increase your skills as an affiliate.
And you know, probably makes sense why we would want you to do that because if
you become a better affiliate, you become a better affiliate for us too,
right? So that is the fifth high ticket affiliate program. And I like these all.
I don't want to sound like I'm overly biased towards ENTRE just because it's
my company.
I just, I put it out there because I do think it stands neck and neck with these
as a really, really high value affiliate program, high commission. Again,
remember, it’s the size of the commissions, it's the quality of the
company and it's the size of the niche or industry. Obviously, with ENTRE,
you're in the education space, people wanting to learn about business and
entrepreneurship. That's huge. Again, HubSpot was huge. That was marketing.
Capitalist Exploits was huge. That was finance. VIP Cars was huge. That was
travel. And Liquid Web was huge. That was web technology. Okay? So there you
have it. Five high ticket affiliate programs that I believe are going to
give you the most bang for your buck as you do the work and create the content
and build the following and generate the list and all the things you have to do
to actually get potential buyers to see these offers.
These are going to get the most money in your pocket as you do that work. Thanks
