I have always been an advocate of schools leveraging technology to scale up income by creating multiple sources of income. This is becoming more critical in the face of rising cost of running schools today coupled with low recovery of tuition debts from parents.

In seeking to create multiple sources of income, let affiliate marketing be part of that plan. However, affiliate marketing works effectively only when effective promotions are done. 


What is affiliate marketing?

Affiliate marketing is a process where publishers earn a commission by promoting a product or service made by another retailer or advertiser.

The key to making money with Affiliate marketing is the ability to promote it effectively. Here, I show you 6 effective ways to promote your affiliate offers and make money.


1: Create a website or blog and promote affiliate programs.


Schools should set up a simple blog to promote contents and also share related affiliate programs. 


We help schools design simple school blogs.

 

2. Utilize social media platforms to promote affiliate programs.

Another effective way to promote affiliate offers is through social media. For schools, I will recommend Facebook, Whatsapp and Pinterest when it comes to promotion of affiliate offers by schools.


3. Leverage YouTube to create video reviews of products or services and include affiliate links in the description.

Every school should, as a matter of necessity, have a Youtube channel. With a school YouTube channel, you can promote related affiliate contents in your videos.


4. Write reviews on popular websites such as Amazon and include affiliate links.

Forums and other review sites are great places to promote affiliate offers and make money.


5. Create an email list and promote affiliate products or services to your list.

To build a very strong loyal customer base, you need a Mailing list. We have so many of them including the free ones like MailChimp. 


6. Take advantage of influencer marketing and collaborate with influencers to promote affiliate programs.



As a school head or the ICT strategist of your school, try to connect with big names in the industry, especially those online, through whom you can promote your affiliate offers and make money. 

Another way to use influencer marketing is by joining large groups on social media platforms where you have the right audience for your offers. Share valuable contents for the audience and recommend offers at one time or the other. Once someone shows interest, direct them to your Youtube or Blog where you have full details of the offer.
