And nowadays, for the younger generations, at least, TikTok influencers make excellent affiliate marketers. The most successful affiliate marketers have a sizable audience of relevant followers (potential consumers) somewhere, often on a social network, blog, podcast, or video-streaming channel. Thanks to each affiliate marketer having a unique link, the product creators can distinguish who sends buying consumers through to their site and, in return, pay the affiliate marketers a percentage of the money these people spend at the site. Instead, product creators or merchants (who have ready-to-go products) start an affiliate program, where online marketers encourage their online readers, viewers, or contacts to buy the products. It gives you (the affiliate) an opportunity to earn money online from selling online without going through the complexities of creating a product or setting up as a full-scale retailer. In short, affiliate marketing involves promoting and selling another company's products or services for a commission. We have regularly looked at the benefits of the affiliate marketing model and have even previously written a general Ultimate Guide to Affiliate Marketing.
