How To Make Money With Canva

Another day someone asked me, how you can make money with Canva? So I decided to do a small experiment ( which I will share with you). In today’s post, I am going to share with you 5 ways you can make money with Canva.

What is Canva?

Before we go deep on how to make money with Canva, let me explain what is Canva, this is for those who do not know what is it.

Canva is a graphic design platform, used to create social media graphics, presentations, posters, documents, and other visual content.

The app includes templates for users to use. The platform is free to use and offers paid subscriptions like Canva Pro and Canva for Enterprise for additional functionality.

You can create a free Canva account by going to canva.com or clicking the banner below.

5 ways to make money with Canva

How To Make Money With Canva

So now let me share with you five ways you can make money with Canva.

Create and sell templates

You can create different types of templates and you can sell them, people are looking for cover letter templates, manifestation script temples, rewards templates, etc. 

All you need to do is to use Canva to create different types of templates and sell them on online stores like Etsy.com

I know many people who make a full-time income by just selling law of attraction templates, find your corner create templates on Canva, and sell them, you will make money.

Become Canva affiliate

I am an advocate of affiliate marketing, so I decided to do a small test, what I did was that I took a banner and put it on my blog( actually this blog) and actually made two sales from it ( see the image below).

how to make money with canva

I live in Mexico, so they pay me in Mexican pesos, so you can see I got 60 clicks and make 2 sales that are equivalent to $10.

I know it is not a lot of money but if I left that banner for a longer time, I could have made even more money.

How to become a Canva affiliate?

In order to become a Canva affiliate, just go to canva.com, scroll down to the very bottom of the page, and then find where it says affiliate program.

 

impact radiues

That link will take you to the affiliate registration page ( the affiliate program is hosted with Impact Radius), fill in the required information, and apply to become an affiliate. 

If you do not have a blog there is a chance that they will reject you, in that case, create a blog, follow my process of creating a blog here, or if you do not want to create a blog you can apply for a different affiliate programs check out my recommended list here.

How to promote the Canva affiliate program?

After getting approved you can start promoting your link using a blog if you have one, a Youtube channel if you have one if you do not have an audience you can use Social media, and for the Canva affiliate program, Instagram works the best.

Create cool images, post them on Instagram, add your Canva affiliate link in your bio, and tell your followers that if they want to create cool images like yours they should click the link in the bio, easy sale.

Create Logos and Youtube thumbnails and sell them on Fiverr

You can take one weekend and learn how to create website/blogs logos and Youtube thumbnails in Canva and then go to the website called fiverr.com.

Create an account in Fivver and start selling your service, people buy that a lot since most content creators can not create logos and thumbnails, or for lack of time sometimes the lack of know-how.

For example, this guy on Fiverr sells one logo at a minimum of $40 and has sold more than 450 of them, that is at least $18,000, assuming they sold just the lowest package.

fivver

You can learn that skill and start creating those logos and thumbnails using Canva and sell them.

Teach people how to use Canva

Another cool way to make money using Canva is to teach people how to use Canva, see the step above I said you could learn how to create a logo and sell them to Fiverr.

If you know how to do that you can create a course and sell it to people who want to learn to use Canva, or you can create a series of videos explaining how to create different templates, thumbnails, and logos using Canva and monetize the viewership your Youtube Adsense. 

Also in the course or videos, you can send people to Canva using your affiliate link, and if they upgrade you will get paid.

I know a guy who created an article on how to remove background color in your image, and in the post, he explained how to do it using Canva and recommended Canva to his readers, that post make him more than $300 in just two weeks, that is just one post.

Make money with Canva using the resource method

The resource method is the underground way to make extra money with Canva actual without doing extra work.

If you are going to use any of the 4 methods I described above, you can add another source of income without doing the extra work.

The idea of this method is to look what is the customer’s goal when they order service to you, let say you sell someone a manifestation template, sure this person is interested in manifestation, all you need to do is to find products that teach about manifestation, create a resource document and add links to that course, then you deliver the templates you include those as a bonus.

When they open the service you just delivered they will see that resource page that has some link to extra resources they need and if they buy something you get paid.

For the customer who orders logos for blogs, you can recommend hosting, autoresponders, and anything that they can use to build and grow their blogs.

For people who buy sell job application letter templates, you can recommend a video that teaches them how to write a killer job application letter.

You are not tricking them, you are helping further with their problem and in the process, you give yourself a chance to make money.

Final words

That is it, those are 5 ways you can use to make money with Canva, which one do you like the most? let me know in the comment section below. 

Best Affiliate Programs For Beginners

When you are new to affiliate marketing is can be difficult to get approved for many affiliate products, this is because you do not have an audience and no one knows who you are yet.

The workaround is to start promoting affiliate programs that you will get approved easily and also programs that are easy to sell. 

There are a lot of affiliate programs that meet these criteria but for me, these 5 are the best affiliate programs for beginners. The three important criteria I used to select these programs are that they are easy to get approved, easy to sell, and easy to get paid even if you do not live in a first-world country.

Aweber

Aweber is one of the oldest and reliable autoresponders in the market, there was a moment where it was considered the best autoresponder.

Aweber affiliate program will pay you using PayPal, direct deposit for the US, and a check.

For me, the easiest way to promote Aweber is to become an expert in email marketing, sign up for Aweber, try their product, then start to teach list building and email marketing to other people and then recommend using Aweber.

Also, you can start a blog or a youtube channel where you can create content around email marketing and list building and recommend Aweber to your prospects.

Getresponse

Getresponse is like Aweber, is an email marketing automation autoresponder, personally I think it is a little better than Aweber in many aspects except that I find Aweber has higher deliverability and it is easier to use. But Getresponse has better templates and a better landing page builder.

Also, you can write a review on a blog or review the program on Youtube and send the readers and viewers to WPX using your affiliate link when they buy, you get paid.

How to promote Bluehost?

As I said above Bluehost is cheap and they offer a free domain name, this can appeal to many beginners. I think the best way to promote it is to offer it as a cheap alternative to WPX hosting, the amount you pay for three months with WPXhosting, you can pay for the whole first year with Bluehost.

It is a good option to host for low-traffic blogs or new bloggers who just want to test the water and do not know if this is long-term for them, offer them this option.

If you have an audience from a blog, Youtube, or email list, I will recommend starting there, just share your journey taking the challenge with your audience, also you can ask some of them to take it with you.

Final words

That is it, those are the best affiliate programs for beginners. I picked those products by considering how easy to join, promote, and get paid.

My advice is that pick on start building your online presence and when you get some results you can use those results as leverage to get even more results. 

How to Get Approved on Warrior Plus

I get this question a lot, How do I get approved on Warrior Plus? so I decided to write a blog post explaining how to increase your chance of getting approved in Warrior Plus.

If you are just starting up and you do not have sales yet, it will be very difficult for you to get approved to promote products in Warrior Plus, but if you follow my tips here you will increase your chance of getting approval before I share with you those tips let use examine why vendors do not approve beginners.

How to Get Approved on Warrior Plus

Why are most vendors do not beginners?

The main reason why most vendors do not want completely beginners to promote their products is that they do not know you.

If you’re new, you have a brand new account and zero sales, the vendors do not know if you have knowledge and resources to promote their product.

They put a lot of effort and money into creating a product, they want to maximize their profit, they want only people who know what they are doing to promote their products, you need to convince them that you know what are you doing.

How to Get Approved on Warrior Plus

Now we know that they do not approve new affiliates because they do not know them, so in order to solve that issue is to let them know you. The first thing you can do to rectify that is to complete your profile.

Complete your profile

how to get approved on warrior plus

The first thing you need to do is to complete your profile, in your profile you must include your name, your blog if you have one, your Youtube channel link if you have one, and your social media accounts.

In your profile there is a section for the long bio, explain how do you promote affiliate products, if you have an email list, explain in details everything you are planning to do, the reason to do it is that if people do not know you they will click on your profile to find more about you, you need to show them that you know your trade.

Record a video

You can use your smartphone to record yourself showing your face, you can say something like this, Hi, Vendors name, my name is ‘your name’ I am a new affiliate here at Warrior Plus, I have been learning how to build a business from ‘name a big marketer who teaches affiliate marketing’ I would like to promote your product, I will use ‘name the traffic strategy’ as my main traffic method to drive visitor to your offer, thank you ‘your name’.

You can adopt a little bit to fit you, after finishing that video upload it to youtube make sure it is unlisted(only people with a link can see it).

Take a link and send it to them via the comment section on Warrior Plus, if you do this your approval rate will be more than 90%.

Do not promote the launch

When vendors launch their products, they want to maximize their profits, and they want to attract bigger marketers, there is a huge chance that they will reject a new affiliate, but if you go for a good product that is between 6 to 12 months old, you will increase your chance of getting approved, promote that product, make some sales and then you can apply for the launches.

Add them to social media

Another way to get approval is to add those vendors in social media, you need to make sure that your social media have the same name as in Warrior Plus and you use your real picture, after adding them, just reach out to them and tell them that you want to promote their product, most of the time they will approve you.

Buy the product

Another way to increase the chance of getting approval is by buying their product, most warrior plus products cost less than $20, they are very affordable.

After buying their product just let them know that you liked it (if it is the case) and you would like to promote it (send them a receipt to show that you bought the products), I got approved every time I used this trick.

Buy a resale license

Most of the vendors in Warrior Plus will offer you a chance to sell the whole product as your own where you will get paid 100% of the commission, this is a great way to get approved since they will have to whitelist you for 100% commission structure.

From my experience, I have seen vendors charge between $47 to $197 if you have that kind of money and you really like the product, you can get a license and promote the product and earn 100% commission, which means you need just one sale on the product to make your money back.

Final words

That is it, this is how you can get approved to Warrior Plus if you are a new affiliate marketer.

7 Big Mistakes New Affiliate Marketers Make

Most people who try to make money online end up making zero money and fail, chances are quite high you will fail. I know this is the kind of thing that you don’t get from the typical affiliate marketing guidebook, but this is reality.

According to statistics, more than 90% of people fail, but this does not have to be you, that is why in this post I am going to share with you 7 big mistakes new affiliate marketers make so that you can avoid them.

Be aware of the 7 big mistakes new affiliate marketers make in the affiliate game so you can do things differently. At the very least, if you understand why they fail, you would be able to spot the warning signs as far as your own affiliate marketing efforts are concerned.

7 Big Mistakes New Affiliate Marketers Make

 

Reason #1: No niche selection strategy

If you do not use a well-designed niche selection process, do not be shocked if the niche you pick is a loser. Maybe it gets a lot of traffic, maybe it gets a lot of media attention, but for some reason or another you’re not making any money out of it.

Your websites pull a lot of traffic, but few people convert. Worst yet, people might convert but you don’t make much money from the conversions. Something is wrong and if you do a postmortem on your business, it may be because of the fact that you did not have a credible, tried, and proven niche selection strategy getting out of the gate. You built your business on sand instead of rock.

Reason #2: Bad niche selection strategy

Just as bad as having no niche selection strategy is a bad niche selection strategy. What is a bad selection strategy? Well, it can mean you use “experts’” niche recommendations. This is a serious problem because it’s way easy for us to think that if a person is an expert or a recognized authority, then they would know what would work for you.

But here’s the problem, they’re not you. They’re not living your life. They don’t have your particular set of circumstances. They don’t have your particular collection of needs. They’re living their own life.

So, their decision as far as the “best” niche for them probably will not fit you. They can recommend a “winner”, but it often turns out that the reason why they do so well with that niche is that it fits them.

It doesn’t necessarily follow that that niche will fit you. You have no business automatically copying and pasting their niche recommendation. You have to have a niche selection strategy that makes sense as far as your needs are concerned.

Learn how to pick an affiliate marketing niche here.

Reason #3: Trendy niches

Just because a lot of people are excited about a niche doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to jump in. It may well turn out that this niche is short-lived. This is especially true for everybody promoting that niche. You might want to research deeper regarding the demand curve and sustainability of the demand for a trendy niche. Otherwise, you might end up holding an empty bag.

Reason #4: No unique selling proposition

A lot of affiliate marketers fail because they put up website after website that at the end of the day doesn’t really offer anything new. People interested in their niche would always ask themselves, why am I on this website, when I can get the same exact stuff from other websites that I get here? Why go here?

If you cannot answer that question, you have no unique selling proposition. Your website as a practical matter is not going to succeed.

Reason #5: No independent affiliate branding effort

A lot of failed affiliate marketers share a common trait. They have websites that simply promote an affiliate product. They didn’t bother creating a specific brand for themselves. They just create website after website pushing a particular affiliate product and leaving it at that.

It is no surprise that when people are no longer searching for that affiliate product, they really have no incentive to search for these websites that these marketers have put up. These websites end up dying.

Reason #6: Instant millionaire mindset

If you automatically think that you’re going to be a millionaire the next time you put up an online venture, then that may be the reason why you’re failing. Affiliate marketing is a marathon. It is a long-term game.

The industry itself does not help that much, most of the products you will find in this space will promise you to make a lot of money in just a few clicks, and this is the reason most people believe that. I have a bad message for you, it is not a get-rich-quick scheme.

It is something that you have to stick to for a long time. It is a commitment. It is definitely not a sprint. If you have an instant millionaire mindset, you might not remain interested or passionate long enough to see your venture succeed.

Reason #7: Unwillingness to invest

I have met people who can not invest $10 for a domain name for the entire year and can not invest $10 per month for hosting and yet they want to make money online, yes you can make money online for free but if you really want to make this work you will need to invest in some tools and education.

If you are only willing to spend spare change or chump change on your business, don’t be too shocked to discover that it’s only capable of producing chump change. You reap what you sow.

Final word

That is it, those are 7 big mistakes new affiliate marketers make, you need to avoid them if you want to succeed online, if you want to learn more about making money online and creating passive income please click the link below.

You need to have a fully working URL and a blog, if you do not have this they will reject your application if you do not have a blog you can start one here.

2) Have a good amount of traffic and content

Having a blog is not good enough you need to have high-quality content in it and you need to have some traffic going to your blog.

3) Focus on Wayfair relevant content

Your blog needs to have content that is relevant to Wayfair, since this company is about decor, you need to be producing content around this niche. This can be general information, reviews, or buying guides.

4) List all sites you will promote from

If you have other sites that you are going to use to promote their affiliate programs you will need to let them know. If you’re going to use social media, my recommendation is to send people from social media to your blog and redirect them to wayfair.com

5) Provide a detailed description of your audience and marketing plans

You will have to provide a detailed description of your audience and your marketing plan, do not leave anything by chance.

Don’t

These are sites you should never submit while applying for their affiliate program.

1) No comparison price sites

If you have a site that compares items, do not submit it, they will reject your application without thinking.

2) No coupon, cashback, voucher, or another reward for purchase sites

This is called incentive marketing they do not allow it, do not submit sites that provide incentives to the customers.

If you write about controversial topics like politics, religion, vaccines, do not apply to this program, they will not accept your site.

Wayfair Affiliate Program Commission

Wayfair has a 7% commission which is a little less than Amazon’s 8% on furniture but do not forget that Amazon has only 24-hour cookies while Wayfair has a seven-day referral period.

If someone who has a Wayfair Pro account orders via your link, then you are not eligible for commission.

How to make money with Wayfair affiliate program

For me there are two main ways to make money with the Wayfair affiliate program, one is content marketing and the other is social media. I am going to expand on this below.

Content Marketing

This is the strategy when you produce content that is related to home decor or furniture, you can do this by producing written content and publishing them into your own blog or you can just them on sites like the medium.

Also, you can start a youtube channel and produce content around this niche, and you will recommend your audience products from wayfair.com

Disadvantage

 Can be difficult to get approved

For me the main disadvantage of joining the Wayfair affiliate program is that it can be very difficult to get approved, this is a stumbling block to many new affiliates.

My advice with this is that start a blog, work in it, create content, after three months when you start to get some traffic, go on and apply to this program, if they do not accept you, keep improving your site and try again.

Why You Should Spy Your Competitors

For me, online marketing is like playing a computer game, you need to know not only your position but also your competitor’s position. I am not suggesting doing James Bond lever spying, it is just to know how they market their services and products online. 

Why You Should Spy Your Competitors

Who is your competitor?

For me, your competitor is a person or a company that is marketing products to the same audience as you. Remember, I did not say the same product or services, I said the same audience, in my experience demographic, buys certain types of products, the idea is to figure out how the demographics respond to different types of ads and content.

Why You Should Spy Your Competitors

Seeing how your competitors are marketing themselves across social media, the web, and even in search engines can give you great insights as to how they’re positioning themselves.

What they’re saying to their audiences, and who that audience is. It can also be a great starting point for one-upping their efforts and carving out your own piece of the pie.

How to do it:

  1. Follow them on social 
    Create dummy accounts (or use your own personal account) and follow competitors on social media. Sign up for their newsletters and blogs. Make note of the kind of content they’re sharing, how often, and what gets the most engagement.
  2. Google them
    Search for competitor names and common industry keywords on Google. What keywords are they using in their copy? Which competitors show up for specific keywords? And what do their landing pages look like? Also, be sure to keep an eye out for remarketing ads that follow you around the internet after.
  3. Use SEMrush and Ahrefs to find out which keywords your competitors are bidding on—and which ones they aren’t. This can help you reach the coveted top position in Google (even if it is an ad). 
  4. Interact with their content. This may sound wild but you need to build some kind of relationship with your competitors, you need to interact with their content, comment on their social media, Youtube or blogs, you need to know everything they’re up to, especially if they have a larger audience than you.

Final wolds

That is it, now you know why you spy on your competitors. Spying on your competitors will give you a slight edge when it comes to marketing.

Also remember that if your competitors have a large audience than you, most of the time they will not have time to answer all questions on their platform, here is where you can go on and help your audience, and this audience will start to follow you.

Affiliate Disclosures and Why You Need One

There is no rule that requires you to issue affiliate disclosures. However, you should have one if you are a professional affiliate marketer who plans to succeed in the affiliate marketing and networking niche.

Affiliate disclosures are a short statement declaring that the review, report, or opinion published on a webpage or website is authored by someone who is an affiliate and gets paid a commission on sales, subscriptions, or signups that result out of redirected traffic or visitors.

Affiliate Disclosures and Why You Need One

You may wonder if that will be detrimental to your sheer existence as an affiliate marketer. Here are the reasons why you need affiliate disclosures.

People are smarter these days

The world is a much more open and free place today than it was ever in recorded history. Information is not censored.

Everyone has access to every bit of information that is available on all public domains. Even the governments around the world cannot hold onto their secrets, classified information that is apparently protected by people, state of the art security systems, and legal provisions charging the leakers with sedition, treason, and even waging war against the nation.

In such a world, it is akin to blasphemy if you believe that unsuspecting internet users are not aware of people writing reviews to generate traffic and to redirect visitors to products or services sales pages and earning a commission.

Many people might not be aware of how exactly affiliate marketing works. But paid news and paid reviews are not an invention of the post-social media era. People know such practices exist.

It increases trust

Having affiliate disclosures will make you appear upright and truthful. People will appreciate the fact that you are not concealing your reality of being an affiliate marketer.

This will help you to make your point without being judged wrongly. For instance, positive reviews often get trashed as paid articles, and hence people don’t even consider clicking on affiliate links.

Disclosures will instill a sense of frankness up front and people will read the review for what it is. There will be some who would suspect the authenticity of the review after reading the disclosure but it becomes too obvious so people give the benefit of doubt to the review since the declaration is already in place.

It makes you an authority

Finally, affiliate disclosures establish a reviewer as an authority in the niche. Affiliate marketers don’t write about anything and everything.

They do have their niches. Authority leads to reviews being taken seriously. People realize that affiliate marketers are aware of other products and services in the same category since it is such knowledge and application of the knowledge that helps them to earn money.

Final words

That is it, these are the three reasons why you should have affiliate disclosures in your promotions. I hope you start implementing this on your affiliate business. Thank you for reading.

Best Way To Get Sales Using Digistore24

One of my subscribers asked me the other day, What is the best way to get sales using Digistore24? Here is the answer and I am going to share it with you.

Best Way To Get Sales Using Digistore24

The best way to get sales using digistore24

For me, the best way to get sales in affiliate marketing is to focus, it does not matter if you sell the best product ever created if you do not focus you will not make any sales.

By saying that you need to focus I mean that you need to put all your effort into few things that work, do not try to do 100 things and not master any of them, these are the things you need to do if you want to increase the sales.

1)Pick a niche

Most beginners I know want to promote all the products in digistore24, this is a mistake I know this because I used to do the same, my way of thinking was the more products I promote the more chance of making money. I was wrong, my advice is to pick a niche and start building your business around it.

Here I explain how to pick a niche for your affiliate marketing business.

2)Collect email address

Most people will not buy the products you’re promoting the first time, you need to start collecting email addresses of people who are interested in more information about your niche.

Then after you get their email address you can start sending them emails about tips and solutions that will help them, you will include your affiliate links in some of those emails, and if they click and buy something you will make money.

The process of collecting email addresses from people who are interested in your niche is called list building.

In order to build your email list, you will need an autoresponder. I recommend Aweber, and you will need a squeeze page. I use Clickfunnels.

squeeze page

If you can not afford Clickfunnels for now, you can build one using HTML, here is my tutorial on how to build a squeeze page in HTML.

3)Drive traffic to your squeeze page

After building a squeeze page, you need to start sending people to it. My recommendation is if you’re just starting and you do not have money, start driving traffic using Facebook or Instagram.

If do you want to learn how to drive traffic using Facebook click here

If do you want to learn how to drive traffic using Instagram click here

Do not do both methods, pick one and stick to it for at least three months. 

After you make money then you can invest it in paid traffic to scale your business.

4)Use the power of organic traffic

Posting on Facebook and Instagram will get you started and will help you to start making money in Digistore 24, but for me, organic traffic from search engines is the best traffic ever, what you can do is to create a Youtube channel, Podcast, or a blog, whatever that suits you the best.

Put your content in one of those channels and you can share it with your followers on Facebook or Instagram.

With time search engines will start to pick up that content and you can use it to promote affiliate products or your squeeze page.

5) Use the power of email marketing

I mentioned building your list, when people subscribe to your email list means they think they can learn something from you.

You can use that powerful tool called autoresponder to send emails to people who are on your list, you do not need to promote a product every time, you can send them your new content, you can tell them stories, you can give them tips and of course you can recommend affiliate products to help them further.

Threat them as human beings with real problems and who want real help be the one who helps them, and they will follow your recommendations.

6) Take consistent action

Do you know why most people do not make money online?  it is because they do nothing. It is that simple.

People will tell you that they are bloggers or Youtubers but if you go to their blog or Youtube channel the last content was three months ago.

They do not promote their squeeze page, they do not post on their Instagram page, they do not post in Facebook or contribute to the groups.

How are they going to make any sales? Do not be one of them, take the one-time actions like finding your niche, creating a squeeze page, writing an initial follow-up series in your autoresponder, and deciding which traffic method you will follow.

Then take your daily actions, for me is to create content and post it on my blog or social media, if you’re using Facebook it will be answering questions, providing value for your audience, etc. 

In Instagram the same just focus on creating and posting helpful content and remember to include a link to your squeeze page in the bio.

Spread your message and the right people will hear it and follow you.

Final words

That is it, for me, the best way to get sales in Digistore24 is to focus, you need to focus on few things and the sales will come to you.

I have another blog post where I explain who to make money in Digistore24, you can read it here.

Advice and Motivation

Starting any journey can be very stressful; there are many lone moments in the journey and most of the people don’t make it to the end.

It does not matter where are you in your journey you need to keep yourself motivated, and here is my advice and motivation for all dreamers out there.

There are a few words on motivation that I want to say, and some may be what you have heard all along, but it can be very useful if you can read them again you might catch something new.

Advice and Motivation

Make long-lasting relationships!

No one can make it up to the top alone, without the help of others it is very difficult to make it. Those who try to go out of it by themselves end up failing most of the time. Don’t fall into that trap.

Get a mentor.

It does not matter what do you do, you will need a mentor, someone who can help you to reach your goals.

Do proper research and make sure he is a good one, but a good one makes all the difference.

Set goals.

Setting goals is the first step of achieving anything in life; you can have a month, two month, three-month goal. Work at it every night and always try to map out your plans. Plans will change along the way, but having a path you are on is key to getting moving.

DON’T GIVE UP!

Winners never quit and quitters never win, surround yourself with people with goals and ambitions as yours. So keep going with proven models. It will not happen overnight so do not expect it to… it will only discourage you. But in the end, you will make it

Remember the main goal.

Why are you doing this? You want that freedom and opportunity to mold your own life based on freedom of time AND wealth. Work for it so you can attain it.

Those are my advice and motivation for today keep hustling and the good things will come your way.
