A Dangerous Maneuver

If you ask me, I will be honest with you and tell you that making money with affiliate marketing is getting more and more competitive nowadays. When you look back to a few years ago, people nowadays are more aware about their spending habit. They think more than twice before investing into something and because of this, your competitors are more aggressive in getting the business from you.

You can still make money with affiliate marketing because your prospects trusted you initially. However, when they try your product and found that it is not up to their standard, they are going to ask for refund. When that happens, the merchants have to make the refund (because you don't own the product) and in the end you still didn't make any money.

You can certainly do that but I can see that you won't go far with affiliate marketing. Because when you exploit the money back guarantee and ignore your customers request, you are actually ending your online career.

Your customers are going to talk about you. In a bad way of course. They are going to expose your "ethic" of running a business. By that time, you will probably see your name rank high in the search engine with all the bad heading you can ever imagine. This can completely destroy your reputation.

So, you see, there is a price to pay when you choose an easy way out. It is very important you know where to draw the line so that you are clear of the core value of your business and what you can or can not do.

Create your success,
