I’ve been saying this for a while now – “Earning affiliate commissions has never been easier, thanks to Facebook.”
Forget blogging, SEO, YouTube videos, and other long-winded, exhausting methods that have you questioning your life choices by week two.
Facebook is a free traffic goldmine, and I’ll show you exactly how one guy is making easy commissions with just one post.
And he’s not alone. There are many others doing the same, and you can too.
Tom Clark is a friend of mine. A few days ago, I saw his post (see below).
A Few Things to Note:
Firstly, Tom generated the post and the image with ChatGPT. There’s even an error on the image (“RRGETT”).
Secondly, he’s promoting a product called Buyer Traffic Source by Andie Brocklehurst.
Thirdly, if you look at the comments on his post…
You’ll see his affiliate link in the first comment.
In the comments below his link, you’ll see popular PLR vendor, Liz Tomey, mentioning that she’s going to try it out.
Below her comment, you’ll see mine… irreverent as always and, of course, getting the most likes, because I’m just that cool.
More importantly, I too bought the product (and the inline upsell) through Tom’s link.
So I know for a fact that Tom made at least three sales just from that one Facebook post. Seriously, it’s that easy.
Today, while scrolling Facebook, I saw Andie Brocklehurst post a screenshot of the affiliate leaderboard.
And Tom is comfortably sitting there in seventh place. Proof that he’s making sales.
So What Does This Tell Us?
Well, if you’re a beginner, you absolutely can make affiliate sales from free Facebook traffic.
No need for a blog, a funnel, or any of the other complicated stuff marketers keep pushing. Those can come later.
For now, start small and build an audience first. It really doesn’t take that much effort.
Here’s What You Need to Do:
1. Set up a Facebook profile dedicated to your marketing.
2. Send friend requests to people who seem interested in the “make money online” niche (or whatever niche you’re in).
3. Post value-driven content on your wall once or twice a day.
4. Mention a solid offer you’re promoting every now and again.
5. Repeat process… more friends, more value, more promos, etc.
6. Most importantly, engage with your friends’ (other marketers) posts.
Engaging Isn’t Optional!
Ahem… I’ll be frank with you. You’ll never be as cool as me 🤣
And even I spend time commenting on fellow marketers’ posts. Sometimes it’s a wisecrack, sometimes just a like to show support for their posts, etc.
The reason I bought through Tom Clark’s link is simple: I like the guy.
He has a fantastic sense of humor, and I always laugh when I see his comments.
When you’re likable, people want to support you. When your content rocks, they trust you and will buy what you recommend.
It’s surprising how often I see people who completely avoid engaging with anyone.
They just post content, and it’s all crickets because no one really knows them.
Nothing exists in isolation. It’s called social media for a reason.
So be social. I can’t repeat this enough.
If you follow the steps above, it’s just a matter of time before you build an audience and start making sales.
But if you want to speed things up, I strongly suggest you check out Anji Martin’s My Socials Pay training.
It’s one of the best free traffic (Facebook) courses I’ve seen.
After going through her training, I set up a new Facebook profile just for my online marketing – and it’s done well.
You can see my post here on how I made $251.80 from a single Facebook post
Anji’s course will show you:
- What types of posts work
- When to post
- What tools to use
- How to find content that’s viral
- And much more!
So if you want to speed up your results on Facebook, you can check out her course here.
Ultimately, this is what matters…
Whether you get Anji’s training or not is up to you. It’s great to have, but not necessary for initial success.
As long as you do what I mentioned above, you’ll build a following and get affiliate sales. It’s inevitable.
Because these are real-world tactics that work.
So many beginners miss out on sales and commissions because they assume the process is hard.
Or they think they have no clout. Or they tell themselves, “I’m an introvert.”
The truth is, you can either make excuses or you can make profits. No two ways about it.
And I’ve just shown you the easiest way to go about it… and I used a real case study as proof.
If Tom can do it, so can you.
So go do it.
