[00:03] meaning of life, the universe, and everything? The answer to the great question

[00:16] of life, the universe, and everything is

[00:31] can sell as an affiliate on Hotmart, the big question every affiliate asks themselves when they get down to work, some even get ahead of themselves and, just by being clear on what an affiliate is, they want to know what to do to start selling.

[00:45] But as Luis Fonsi would say, you have to go step by step because otherwise you'll realize you won't get any results. So, what do you think if I directly share a list of essential things to start

[00:59] selling as an affiliate? Let's go. First, a Hotmart account. Obviously, affiliate, you need to create a Hotmart account. Registering is totally free, so you can start there. If you have n't done it yet, I'll leave the link in

[01:14] the pinned comment of this video. Second, affiliate with a product. Another fairly obvious step. Depending on your tastes and knowledge, you'll have to choose which product you want to affiliate with from the Hotmart certificate. It's

[01:27] important that it be Choose a niche that interests you. And if you have advanced knowledge of it, even better. If you 're not yet affiliated with any product, I'll leave a video above where we explain in detail the

[01:39] steps to follow within the platform. Third, save the Hotlink. Save your affiliate link or Hotlink very well because you'll need to use that link to share the product you've affiliated with and so that Hotmart can

[01:52] link your sales to your account. Fourth, put the strategies we're going to explain into practice. Now I'm going to share three different strategies organic sales without having to invest anything. First, a list of close contacts.

[02:06] Think about the niche of the product you've affiliated with. What topics does it cover? It probably covers different topics within a slightly broader category. Focus on the different benefits of this product and prepare

[02:20] a list of the topics or advantages it encompasses. Next, make a list of your closest contacts. They have to be people who know you and have a minimum of trust in you. Think about it: these people must believe in

[02:33] you enough to follow your recommendations to buy something. The last thing you have to do is order them according to their interests. Their names are on the first list you created. Let me give you a

[02:46] practical example. Imagine I've become an affiliate for a product offering healthy recipes from benefits of this product would be learning to eat healthily to lose weight, developing your culinary skills, or impressing your friends and partners with

[03:01] international recipes. These are just a few ideas, but there are many more. So, what I have to ask myself is, of the people I know and who trust me, who would be interested in these benefits? Some

[03:15] might be interested in more than one, and others only in one, but this way you've already identified them. This is a good strategy if you want to start affiliated with more than one product. This way, you can organize the information

[03:28] clearly and keep track of the people you're going to contact to offer them the courses you've affiliated with. It's also a good first step to get used to selling in a trusted environment. The second

[03:41] strategy I'm going to tell you about is blogging. Many Hotmart affiliates have discovered that they can achieve very good results through a blog. Furthermore, if you're interested in having more authority in the niche where you're going to

[03:53] work, a blog is a great channel to share information, tips, and data on the topic. This will strengthen your position as an expert. As an authority and a reference in the sector, people will trust you more. Keep in mind that blogging is a

[04:06] long-term strategy, and you'll need to generate significant traffic so that your blog visitors become buyers of the courses you're affiliated with. To encourage visits to your blog, I recommend you

[04:19] start studying SEO and organic website positioning. There are many free training courses from various institutions that teach the basics of web positioning so you can apply them to your blog. However, do

[04:33] n't use your blog solely as a channel for promoting your offers. You can complement them with relevant content including your affiliate link and drive traffic to those posts through various strategies. Thirdly, social media—just like on your blog—

[04:47] promote the products you're affiliated with. You can share tips about your market niche and occasionally offer these products by including your affiliate link in the description. Regardless of the

[05:01] channel, try to be creative when sharing and promoting the product, and publish content that increases trust among your users. If you only share the link or hotlink, it's quite likely you won't get any

[05:16] vast majority of first-time affiliates. As advice, I would tell you to try to keep your product posts to a maximum of 20% of the content you share on social media because your followers won't

[05:31] offers on your channels. If you're constantly saying "buy, buy, buy, buy, buy," they'll get tired of it and won't want to listen to you. Besides offering them a quality product, they need to know you and trust you. Try to raise awareness

[05:45] and develop your personal brand. I assure you it will help you create connections with your potential clients. If you're interested in selling on Instagram, I'll leave a link above to a more specific video about this

[05:58] social network where we share very useful tips. With this, you already have more than enough information to get started with at least one of the strategies I've mentioned in this video. Hey, and if you're one of the few
