Internet Business - Is it Time For a Career Move?

It's time for a career change, but to what?

Affiliate Management is definitely the way to go! It is a growing
and exciting career. It requires a combination of skills such as
organization, creativity and leadership to work together in
harmony. Best of all, it is a highly sought after position.
A successful Affiliate Manager can create an enormous income
stream for an internet business or offline companies and are
handsomely rewarded. The top 3 benefits of being an Affiliate
Manager are income level, networking and hiring demand both
in internet business and offline.

Normally, affiliate managers get a base pay plus incentive income
based upon performance. They usually get a bulk monthly
payment, retainer, or base salary. Typically, the monthly base
payment will range between $2,000-$5,000. Then, they also get
paid a pre-determined percentage, usually 5%-10% for every sale
that is generated through the affiliate program as a result of their
efforts. As an affiliate program grows and gets bigger, it can
become highly financially rewarding for both the affiliate, affiliate
manager and the owner of the internet business or an offline
company. This payment structure allows for the affiliate manager
to have the best of both financial worlds; security from a base and
increased financial opportunity due to performance.

As in most industries, including internet business, a quick way to
climb the latter of success is to get in with the big dogs! It is
important and beneficial to meet and network with lots of
powerful people. The pure nature of affiliate management does
exactly this. To run a successful affiliate program, it is required
that the individual work closely with affiliate; those who own
their own businesses. Many times, affiliates are already making
sales which, prequalifies them as being someone with a level
influence and success. As with any business, one's success is
often times related to the people you know, can learn from and
are influenced by.

Affiliate management is not just a position in internet business.
It is becoming increasingly popular in the offline world due to
the revenue generating power of the system. Most large offline
companies have affiliate programs and need skilled affiliate
managers. Take a look at monster.com or other job posting/
seeking sites and you will see that companies are posting jobs
and hiring affiliate managers all of the time. It is a position that
is in high demand right now, both in internet business and offline.
