Hey guys, i am a pharmacy student from Austria (21years) and would like to get into the affiliate marketing business. I already have some experience, built up a community with
>2k members by just doing SEO, writing Content and Backlinking, also advertised for different Poker Companies where i made some money. Poker is the busieness where i come
from, played pretty successfull Fixed Limit HOldem up to $2/$4 and Pot Limit Omaha up to $100/$200 for about two years. But Pokergames became tougher, as a result the Variance
bigger and the legal issues more serious. The Mentor - Scholar idea I also got from the poker-scene. A lot of professional Players have their scholar. They give coachings, do
hand analysis, session reviews together. In reward the Mentor gets a percentage of the winnings from the scholar, or the scholar is tracked (ref-linked) by the mentor so the
mentor gets some %% of the generated Rake.
I think thats quite a good thing but don't know if it works in this business so let me hear your thoughts. My idea is that i am operating on the german market and give like 20
percent for the time of the mentor/scholar relation and maybe 1 year more. Or if its possible i register to the affiliate network through his Reflinks.
What the Mentor should do:
-> Tell me how to get started without wasting a lot of time and money
-> Maybe tell me a good niche to start. It can also be his niche, there won't be business competition since I will be operating on the german market. (Would be good for Content exchange etc.)
-> Take a look at my work and give feedback
I am willing to spend up to 20hrs a week (sometimes much less because auf studies) and the motivation to really get into this thing.
Tell me what you think, crap idear or could this work.
