Super Affiliates Net Broadcast Rocks The Industry
James Martell's "Affiliate Buzz" inspires, informs
and motivates.
 In 2000 James Martell was a
fledgling Net entrepreneur hawking free ISP services from a
single website and was earning very good money from his home
computer until the whole industry disappeared overnight. He
was caught off guard like countless others by the well
documented dot com crash in the spring of 2000. But Mr.
Martell rebounded with two new sites dedicated to satellite
TV and credits cards.
And he has never looked back.
Not only do his credit card and satellite TV sites still
thrive to this day, generating huge income from commissions
received from related merchants placed on his sites, but
Martell now has sites in 50 different industries from
batteries to baby items to pets to golf supplies.
"I guess I learned not to have
all my eggs in one basket after seeing my free ISP revenue
literally dry up overnight. It was very depressing because
my site had 5000 visitors a day but now there were no
merchants to send them to, since the backbone that supported
the entire free ISP business went bust." James says.
"What drives my success today
is the verifiable fact that consumers are shopping online in
droves and merchants are on to the craze. I find most of my
new merchants at http://www.cj.com, who act as a trusted
third party tracking sales and paying commissions to
affiliates on behalf of thousands of different merchants in
hundreds of different industries."
"After a few of my friends got
interested in building their own sites I got the idea to put
together a live training to teach my methods to the public.
I taught this class to about 20 people in Vancouver, B.C.
Canada in the fall of 2001 for $1000. It was quite
successful and several students are now full time affiliate
marketers earning more than their previous jobs. But the
class distracted me from my main source of income, so I
disbanded it and hired an editor to work full time with me
to develop a downloadable version instead."
"My downloadable version is
called, James Martell's Affiliate Marketers Handbook - 2002.
It was launched in May of 2002 to critical acclaim -- and
because sales are all handled through my publishing company,
Net Guides Publishing Inc. out of Las Vegas, Nevada -- I was able
to build new many sites in different industries, getting a
firm foothold in each. The affiliate marketing industry is
growing so fast that if I could make time to do it I could
probably build in 1000 different industries."
"But I'm doing quite well for
myself with 50 sites -- and of course, steady manual sales
-- and instead of ploughing ahead building more sites I have
launched a Net broadcast that focuses on issues that are
important to affiliate marketers."
"I can remember when I first
got started there was no credible forum to find ideas that
really worked. My Net broadcast, -- which I call an "audio
newsletter" lasts about 30-40 minutes and comes out twice a
month. It cost ten bucks to subscribe. Each edition focuses
on different aspects of succeeding online with affiliate
programs and draws heavily on my personal experience."
"I pull no punches and tell it
like it is, even revealing my greatest mistakes along the
way. The way I see it, there are countless "orphan
affiliates" who are floundering around trying to make sense
of this jigsaw puzzle called affiliate marketing who are
largely neglected by their merchants. So I thought I could
fill a need here by offering advice, tips and procedures to
get the traffic needed to make a good living. And at the
same time inspire my listeners to get out there and do it
themselves."
"More specifically, the goal
of these Nets broadcasts is to inspire, inform and motivate.
Many tell me the shows format truly achieves its aim."
