Super Affiliates Expecting To Get Certificate From Affiliate Classroom
When the dust settles after a product launch, many super affiliates have banked some large figures while the rest of the affiliates are wondering what happened. Many training courses try to help these other marketers, but it always seems like the marketers with the big lists are the ones who succeed at making the most money.
Sometimes, a good number of individuals attempt to emulate the gurus simply to learn that a lot of toil is expected! For that reason it is easy to discredit most affiliate training websites. Anik Singal’s announcement that 2 years after the original release of Affiliate Classroom he was releasing AC 2.0 brought with it a lot of raised eyebrows.
2 years ago, affiliate manager certifications were the prime reason people signed up for Affiliate Classroom. Affiliates and newbies alike signed up for the curriculum so they could know how to become great affiliate managers. Gurus used the Affiliate Classroom course as a way to eliminate a good number of applicants from consideration. Those who did not take the class, were not interviewed!
In 2009, Anik made Affiliate Classroom even better, so powerful that affiliate managers are asking him to certify affiliates who graduate at higher levels so that they can use this criteria to negotiate lower commissions for lower level affiliates. Should the affiliate managers succeed at obtaining Affiliate Classroom certifications for affiliates, it would almost force affiliates into the training program to have a chance to earn money selling other people’s products.
Marketers sometimes want to join joint venture promotions, oblivious about how to get free traffic, without a list to promote to and beyond doubt not equipped to invest in a PPC (Pay Per Click) marketing campaign. The affiliate managers in these cases are often afraid to reject them, without actually giving them access to the product like the do with super affiliates.
So the announcement that affiliate certifications are coming is making some of the affiliate managers breathe a lot easier. They can set up a real qualifier for their affiliate programs, keeping the newcomers out until they get the right training and some experience.
Certification proponents are saying that the best part is that testing does not take into account experience, since students might know the information enough to pass tests, while failing to take action on that material. Affiliate Classroom requires that students preform real world tasks where they earn actual commissions, as part of their certification score.
The affiliate networks and affiliate managers are banking that Affiliate Classroom 2.0 will make their jobs easier. Difficult to sell products will be only handled by those affiliates who have demonstrated the motivation to train themselves and show experience with similar products from the modules in Affiliate Classroom. With the course designed by Anik Singal and his staff, super affiliate criteria will be measured and taught by people who have reached 6 and 7 figure success.
