Speaker: Marianne Douglas
Topic: How to Use Affiliate Programs to Expand Your Business

If your business has a website or blog, then there’s a good chance you can benefit by having an affiliate relationship with another company that will help you both.  Most websites have banner ads or links from other companies that complement the business.  Website owners receive a commission from those clicking on the embedded link or purchasing the product or service displayed. 

This session will

• introduce you to several of the major affiliate sites as well as how to affiliate with some of the sites you already do business with
• help you determine how to choose the ones that best match your business
• introduce you to how to create your own affiliate program so that others may promote your business and receive a commission for doing so
