Keala Kanae went from working in a coffee shop to livin’ lavish in just a few short years.
The Hawaii-born internet guru now pulls up to his sprawling Las Vegas mansion in a charcoal-colored Lambo, peels himself outta the strawberry-red interior, and strolls to his casita, which he’s turned into a home office, so he can make his millions while watching his family splash around in the pool.
But how does he actually make all that money? Read on for my Fullstaq Marketer review.
Keala boils business down to two things.
First, you got your audience. A group of people who have a problem they want solved or a desire they want fulfilled.
Second, an offer that does that. Which is where most people get tripped up. They assume they have to manufacture a product or hire a huge team to provide a service or spend months creating a course or years honing their craft so they can one day launch their own coaching program.
They would be wrong. You don’t need your own offer.
That’s actually the worst way for someone to get started online, Keala argues.
Too time-consuming, costly and risky. Right?
Like, no matter how much time and energy and money you pour into it, there’s no guarantee you’ll ever make a sale.
So what if you could just find proven offers that already exist, that have a ton of demand, and focus solely on the first part: marketing to that target audience? Well, you can.
It’s called affiliate marketing and it’s been around since the dawn of the internet.
Some of the biggest companies in the world (Amazon, Apple, Walmart, etc.) offer affiliate (or partner) programs you can sign up for, for free, and promote their products in exchange for a commission.
Or there’s marketplaces like ClickBank that have digital products (weight loss eBooks and make money online courses, for example) you can promote for an even bigger commission since they don’t have near the overhead.
Once you find something, it’s just a matter of getting people to click your affiliate link and buy, which tracks the sale back to you.
Isn’t that hard to do though? Yes and no.
It’s competitive because the model is so damn appealing. You can sign up to an affiliate program, snag your affiliate link, and be in business within the hour. And you haven’t spent a dime yet. And, if you nail the audience part, your earning potential’s unlimited. And you can work from anywhere and you really don’t have to answer to anyone.
What’s not to like, right? Exactly.
That’s why everyone and their cousin’s trying to be the next super affiliate. So it’s pretty cutthroat.
But if you’re willing to compete, there’s so many ways to get in front of the millions and millions of people, in various corners of the internet, who have the pressing problem or burning desire the product you chose caters to.
Like, literally, you could run ads on Google and YouTube that are only shown to folks who’ve Googled things that would make them perfect candidates for your offer. Or you could go into specific Facebook Groups full of people with that problem or desire. Or Instagram or TikTok or blogging.
- Just find a traffic source you like.
- Outdo the army of affiliates you’ll inevitably be going up against.
- Get your affiliate links clicked.
- A percentage of those people are gonna buy.
- And after the holding period (usually 2-6 weeks), you’ll get paid out via check, PayPal or direct deposit.
- Now go do more of it… till you’re making what ya wanna make.
That’s the gist of it.
Fullstaq Marketer offers plenty of courses and training programs to fill in the gaps.
Prices range from $37 on up to tens of thousands of dollars.
Which, if I read between the lines, is how Keala makes his money nowadays.
