As you correctly identify, having an audience is one of the key factors in the success of an affiliate.
At the end of the day, it’s a numbers game. The best products promoted by the best affiliates will bring in conversion rates in the low-mid single digits.
Anything more than that is a phenomenal outcome.
So you need a lot of eyes (and the right kind of eyes, interested eyes) looking at your offer. And you need those eyes to trust you enough to click your link and get the program.
If you need to establish yourself quickly, I recommend that you set yourself up on Twitter and go all in.
Twitter has an amazing, supportive community of affiliates and other online entrepreneurs in which you can grow and establish yourself as an authority very quickly.
You didn’t mention who the audience is for this affiliate program, but Twitter’s reach and its search function will allow you to find your audience and market to them directly.
So that’s my suggestion to you.
Hope that helps.
Jon
