Almost everyone is talking about Affiliate Marketing today. It is actually one of the easiest ways to make money if you really know how to go about it.

How does Affiliate Marketing work?

This is Affiliate Marketing:
Mr. A has an online course on E-commerce. It is worth ₦50,000. Mrs. B has people in her office who are interested in learning E-commerce, and she recommends Mr. A's training to them.

They agree that Mrs B is entitled to 50% of the course registration fee (i.e ₦25,000), for whoever she recommends to take the course.

Mrs. B gets 10 recommendations in a week, and is paid ₦250,000 by Mr. A.

That's exactly how Affiliate Marketing works.


It is something you do every day, just that you do not get paid for it, and you do not pay attention to it.

It is recommending helpful products to people who need them, and can afford them.
