NOTE: The following is a guest post from one of our favorite internet marketing mentors.

The word “overhead” is not a favorite among those who run businesses of any kind. Nobody likes the expenses of operating a business. And nobody really talks about them much when it comes to promoting all of the “money-making” products and services online.
But, don’t kid yourself, there’s a lot of overhead.
That brings me to the fifth reason why I love affiliate marketing…
You don’t need a big budget to make it work.
Do you have any idea how much money is spent running an internet business? There are monthly fees for…
* Autoresponders
* Hosting
* Management
* Advertising
* Scripts
* Much more…
There are regular fees for…
* Licensing
* Outsourcing
* Support
* Customer Service
* Maintenance
* Development
* Recruiting
* Much more…
It’s not uncommon to spend tens of thousands (even hundreds of thousands) of dollars in operational costs — which is fine if you’ve been in business a while and are making the bucks. However, if you’re a newcomer, it can be taxing on your budget!
I paid one woman over $30,000 last year just to oversee one small part of my business. No one talks much about it, but there ARE a lot of expenses involved before you get to the “bottom line” of profit.
BUT, with affiliate marketing, you don’t need a big budget to make it work! You can simply use a variety of free and low-cost marketing methods to generate clicks to your affiliate link.
That’s why I love affiliate marketing.
You don’t need a big budget to make it work.
