Affiliate program for new business? (alien.top)
 

Hi all. Just wondering if the implementation of an affiliate program for a brand new service based business with a high mark up would be effective for customer acquisition?

Are affiliate programs something businesses usually consider later on? Or is it a valid method for establishing an initial customer base? If so, how are these programs usually advertised?

Grateful for thoughts on this. Thanks.

Definitely agree. Seen some terrible sites out there that have left me wondering what the designer was thinking. >.<

Getting my first clients is currently a challenge. Hopefully I can improve my sales and marketing to overcome this!

My skills include front end web design (experienced in Wordpress and Webflow), general tech knowledge (my sector) and content creation (blogs and video tutorials).

I don't have any relevant contacts and would be starting from scratch.

Which business path would provide the easiest income? (alien.top)
 

Hi all. I'm set on breaking away from my day job and running my own business. With my skills, knowledge and interests, there are a few possibilities. The issue I'm having is deciding which to commit to. I know nothing is ever certain in business or in life, and there's no such thing as quick and easy money (most of the time!), but on the other hand, I don't want to commit to a business that will take me years to reach a stable, consistent income if at all. Which of the following would be the path of least resistance to get to of $8k+ USD per month? Thanks. :)

Actually starting. Put it off for years due to procrastination or being too much of a perfectionist. Seems strange to say, but many people just talk and don't take action...
