Through affiliate networking, you do not just obtain sales. If we think in every aspect of opportunity that is created through affiliates, we will come to the fact that we have tremendous power to obtain leads. Imagine that if you own a web page for free information with regards to latest computer technology. (Example of this page, however, this page is free information for almost everything) Normally other web sites would charge consumers for these information. What you could do is to require the reader to fill up a form with no obligation, in order to obtain the free information.

What could you do with the form that they have just filled in? Well, there are many companies out there that would just hunger for those leads. Talk to them for a synergy in creating a win-win situation. How do we achieve a win-win situation? Just think about it, by offering the leads to a company who sells computer products with a minimal fee. Depends on how you negotiated with the company, the fee could be by month basis or a per-lead basis. Look at the illustration below:

You : Earn profit from lead
Consumer : Happy with the information that you provided
Company : Obtained leads for calling (Selling latest computer products)

Companies that are interested in pay-per-lead could be found majorly in Commission Junction and most of the “MUST JOIN” category that I mentioned earlier. Harness the power of affiliate networking and make the most out of it. Again, be creative!
