You are a beginner in the world of Affiliate Marketing, and you have heard that the High Ticket Affiliate Marketing variant is among the best.

The concept is absolutely right.

However, if you are interested in this path, you need to set it up the right way from the beginning, and that is what I will do in this post.

I will provide answers to your questions on:

  • Best traffic source
  • Best strategy
  • Best Channels
  • Best Affiliate Networks
  • Best resources to study and go deeper

Best traffic source for beginners in High Ticket Affiliate Marketing

Whether it is normal Affiliate Marketing, or the more interesting version i.e. High Ticket Affiliate Marketing, what you need is always the same thing: traffic.

You can call it traffic, or visibility, or visitors, or impressions, or clicks.

Call it whatever you want, the concept is the same: what you need is the ability to “reach” users with your content and affiliate links.

When it comes to getting traffic, there are several options to choose from, but for beginners, organic traffic is the best option.

There are several reasons for this, and I will explain why.

google search homepage

First, organic traffic has almost no upfront cost compared to paid traffic campaigns. You don’t have to spend money on advertising to get traffic, which means you can focus on content and building an asset over time.

Second, organic traffic has the potential to generate traffic for months and years to come. This means that once you have built your asset (your blog), you can continue to get traffic and generate commissions without further effort (or at least minimal effort).

Third, organic traffic is high quality in terms of converting visitors into buyers, and this is especially true in the case of High Ticket products. Since they are expensive, users will spend time looking for reviews and advice before they buy, and it is natural that they will invest time looking for this information in content written in person by other users interested in the same products (read “affiliate marketers”).

Users who search for information about a product on a search engine are often the closest to buying, which means they are more likely to convert into customers.

In addition, this type of traffic will help you build your authority and credibility in your target market.

Why paid traffic is a problem

Many beginners in the affiliate marketing world believe that paid traffic is the key to promoting High Ticket products and generating commissions quickly and easily. But unfortunately, this is just an illusion.

In fact, using paid traffic to promote High Ticket products is extremely difficult. There are several reasons for this.

google ads platform

First, creating an effective paid traffic campaign requires specific technical knowledge and a good understanding of how platforms such as Google Ads or Facebook Ads work. This is not something you can learn in a few hours or days.

Second, competition is very high when it comes to High Ticket products. There are many other affiliates trying to promote the same products, which means that the costs of advertising campaigns rise rapidly.

Third, the costs of advertising campaigns for High Ticket products are very high. This is because the profit margins are higher, which means that more can be invested in advertising. However, if the advertising campaign does not convert right away, you can lose a lot of money in a short time.

For all these reasons, for beginners, it is better to focus on organic traffic. Not only is it cheaper, but it also allows you to build a solid asset that can generate traffic and commissions for months and years to come.

And, as we saw earlier, organic traffic is of high quality and helps you build your authority and credibility in your target market.

Best strategy for starting High Ticket Affiliate Marketing

There is one specific strategy that can help beginners get better and faster results in the world of High Ticket Affiliate Marketing: promoting High Ticket Value Ladder products.

But what does value ladder mean?

Simply put, a value ladder is a series of products with increasing prices and increasing functionality. For example, you might start promoting a low-cost product, such as an ebook or online course, and then move to higher-priced products, such as one-on-one coaching or mentoring programs.

The key to the value ladder is to convince potential customers to buy the first inexpensive product. Once they have bought the first product and had a good experience with it, they will be more likely to buy the higher-priced products in the value ladder.

But the most important part is that the seller himself will do most of the work of converting them to the High Ticket products. Your job is merely to convince the user to take the first step, the easiest one, the least expensive one, by passing through your affiliate link.

After that, it will be the salesperson himself, with all his experience, who will do the heavy lifting of convincing the customer to buy the more expensive products. But since he is still your affiliate customer, the sales commission on the High Ticket products will still be yours.

Of course, there is still a lot of competition when it comes to high ticket products. However, focusing on a well-set value ladder can help you stand out from the crowd and attract the right potential customers.

Best Value Ladder Products for Affiliate Marketing.

I will update this list over time, adding High Ticket products with value ladder as I find them.

For now, you can start with the most interesting ones, universally recognized as some of the best High Ticket affiliate programs in the world:

Why creating a mailing list is critical

Starting creating a mailing list as early as possible is critical for anyone who wants to succeed in Affiliate Marketing. Creating a quality contact list is even more important in the case of high-ticket products, as it may take longer to convince the user to purchase.

By sending a series of emails to your contacts, you can provide them with additional information and help them make an informed decision about purchasing a product.

There are many ways to grow a mailing list, but one of the most common is to give away valuable free content (also called Lead Magnet) in exchange for your potential customer’s email address.

Creating a mailing list allows you to build a valuable asset for your web site. When you publish something new, you can alert your list and receive immediate traffic and feedback.

In addition, cyclically you can send out new email sequences promoting new affiliate products.

What a beginner needs to study to start High Ticket Affiliate Marketing

It is clear that to do High Ticket Affiliate Marketing, you must have a good understanding of Affiliate Marketing in general. This means you will need to learn the notional basics, how to find the right products, promote them effectively, and build a quality contact list.

A good course on Affiliate Marketing can be an essential starting point for learning the basics and acquiring the necessary skills. There are several courses on the market, but the best are:

But there is one thing in particular that beginners must learn to do really well to promote high ticket products: try, test, and review products to provide useful information to potential buyers.

Reviews are important because they help potential buyers make an informed decision about buying a product. When a potential buyer seeks information about a product, they often look for reviews from other people who have already used the product.

However, don’t do as everyone does by reading other people’s reviews and trying to write something better by simply mixing up differently what others have written. To be truly useful, you need to try the products yourself, do your own testing, and report your firsthand experience. Only in this way can you provide authentic and useful information to potential buyers.

In addition, creating high-quality reviews will help you generate organic traffic. Google appreciates the quality of genuine, well-crafted reviews and rewards websites that provide useful and relevant information to their users.

Best High Ticket Affiliate Marketing Networks and Programs.

We have already discussed the strategy of value ladder products and affiliate programs such as Legendary Market, ClickFunnel and eToro Partners.

However, these are not the only networks where a beginner can easily start promoting High Ticket products.

Because if you are a beginner, if you do not already have a site with good traffic, or you cannot prove your experience and effectiveness in creating paid campaigns, the Affiliate Network or Program may not even accept you.

Amazon

One network that is often underestimated for affiliate marketing is Amazon. Although commissions are generally low, the “fashion and jewelry” category can be attractive. This category has higher commissions, up to 10%.

There are many expensive products in this niche, which means you could earn as much as hundreds on a single product.

Clickbank

However, the best network for a beginner who wants to start selling High Ticket products is certainly Clickbank.

Clickbank has long decided to accept every new subscriber, even beginners. It also provides a lot of very useful free training materials and a good level of support.

There are many high ticket and/or recurring products on Clickbank, from which you can generate commissions of hundreds of dollars. There are many interesting niches, such as fitness, health and wellness, digital marketing, and many others.

An alternative to creating a blog

If writing and creating a blog is not really your thing, you might consider creating videos and a YouTube channel.

The concept is much the same: You still need to create quality content and provide useful information to potential buyers. You need to be able to do real reviews as we mentioned earlier.

If you are afraid to show your face in the video, don’t worry: there are many strategies and ways to not have to do that and still be effective. For example, you can use slides and animated presentations, or you can record your screen and speak in the background.

Also, from a certain point of view, creating videos allows you to reach a wider audience than just writing. Videos are increasingly popular with online users and can help you generate traffic and conversions.

In fact, the absolute best strategy, which applies to any type of Affiliate Marketing and especially to High Ticket Affiliate Marketing, is to begin the creation of a blog, and after a while also begin the creation of a parallel YouTube channel, so that blog and video support each other.
