I Tried High Ticket Affiliate Marketing | by Jenn Leach | ILLUMINATION | Aug, 2023

Honest Reaction

I had heard about this for years, high-ticket affiliate marketing. I was doing affiliate marketing but, something was always missing. Like a tiny piece of the puzzle.

Meanwhile, I kept hearing people talking about high-ticket affiliate marketing, referring high-priced products like exercise equipment, massage chairs, furniture, etc.

These affiliates were really going the extra mile to close these sales, like talking to potential customers on the phone, closing sales, and writing super long in-depth reviews including in-depth photos.

I was more of a lazy affiliate marketer so, the thought of doing all that work, especially the phone calls, was a major turn-off for me.

Years later, I was able to break into high-ticket affiliate marketing, the lazy way. No sales calls and no in-person testing required.

Here’s how it has been so far…

As you can imagine, it’s affiliate marketing of high-ticket or high-priced products with high commissions.

For example, one affiliate product I refer costs the customer around $200 and earns me an $80 commission.

Another one costs the customer $500 and gets me $300 per sale.

I like to think of high-ticket affiliate marketing as a way to work smarter, not work harder.

There are definitely still affiliates in this space that make and take phone calls and go the extra mile to close the sale.

That won’t ever be me, though.

Just being transparent there.

I also can’t try and test every product I refer. I wish I could but, it can get quite expensive, frankly, to try every product I refer, in the niche I’m in.

Maybe one day I’ll get there but, for now, I’m not there yet.

But, I strive to be as clear and transparent as possible, sharing in the reviews I write and talk about online, products I have tried and those I haven’t.
