The Super Affiliate Handbook Overview
“The Super Affiliate Handbook” by Rosalind Gardner is, as the title also says, a handbook for affiliate marketers. The word, “super” in the title, doesn’t imply that the book is only meant for super affiliates. Rather, in “The Super Affiliate Handbook” Rosalind Gardner intends to show you how you can become a super affiliate.
Rosalind Gardner knows what she is talking about.
On her web site, she delivers the proof that she personally earned $436,797 the year prior to the publication of “The Super Affiliate Handbook”. While Rosalind Gardner primarily earned this income by marketing affiliate products and services targeting the dating market, you can do the same by targeting other markets.
The experience of several super affiliates confirms the fact that it can be done. And in “The Super Affiliate Handbook” Rosalind Gardner shows you step-by-step how she and several other affiliate marketers have become so successful.
What I like in this book
"The Super Affiliate Handbook" by Rosalind Gardner is one of the very best overviews I have seen for marketing affiliate products. In fact, the only competitor I can think of right now is the Affiliate Conspiracy book on the same subject.
In opposition to most other books on affiliate marketing, and Internet Marketing in general, in “The Super Affiliate Handbook” Rosalind Gardner really goes into the details on how you can build you own profitable Internet business.
Rosalind Gardner covers several subjects that most other authors either skip or just mention in passing. For instance, one of the most important and helpful parts of “The Super Affiliate Handbook” is the section on how to track your results. Most other Internet marketers underscore the importance of doing this, but they do not tell you how. Rosalind Gardner not only emphasizes the importance of doing this, she also tells you how she does it. Plus, she shows you the spreadsheets that she uses to track her number of visitors, buyers etc. This is a very valuable part of this book.
Creating the tracking templates yourself is fairly easy using a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice.org installed on your computer.
Rosalind Gardner also leads you through the formula for calculating your conversion rate. This formula is well known, but she included it in the book. When you want to track your ad results, this formula is indispensable.
As I mentioned above, one of the things I like the most about “The Super Affiliate Handbook” is the degree to which Rosalind Gardner gives you all the details of how to become a super affiliate. She covers:
"The Super Affiliate Handbook" contains so much valuable information that I am really impressed. You get enough details to firmly grasp each step in the process.
The second part is Rosalind Gardner’s coverage of pre-selling. If you want to become a super affiliate, the ability to pre-sell is vitally important. Rosalind Gardner could have elaborated even more on this important topic, but she gives you enough to get started.
"The Super Affiliate Handbook" itself is a brilliant example on how you can pre-sell affiliate products. The book is filled with affiliate links and the text in the book is how Rosalind Gardner pre-sells these products.
The reason why Rosalind Gardner does such a good job pre-selling affiliate products is that her affiliate links are embedded in honest and high-quality information. In opposition to most other affiliate marketers, she does not just throw a bunch of affiliate links in your face. Instead, she gives you high-quality information that you can immediately use. Then when you need to get the resources and tools to apply her advice to your business, use the affiliate links in the book.
The book is written well with engaging language and Rosalind does not fall for the temptation to try to impress with her knowledge. Instead you immediately sense that she is speaking out from her personal knowledge. This impression is also emphasized by the many personal real-life stories and illustrations Rosalind Gardner has woven into the text.
Overall Assessment
This is one of the absolutely best books I have read on Affiliate Marketing.
You get all the details you need to build your own successful affiliate business. The book is written well and the content is easy to understand and apply. The graphics, the navigation (with interactive links) and the illustrations are good quality.
If you are interested in building your own affiliate business on the Internet, I think “The Super Affiliate Handbook” by Rosalind Gardner is one of the absolute best places to start. Considering the low price of the book, it is an absolute steal. So, get this book! I give it my strongest recommendations.
