What is a Value Ladder and How Does it Work?

Let’s think about McDonalds for a minute. Did you realize that a cheeseburger actually costs less than their fries? Why does McDonalds do this and how can they be profitable?

McDonalds uses the cheeseburgers as “bait” to get customers into the door. Once they pull up to the drive through window they’ll also offer them fries, a mcflurry, and a 6-piece chicken mcnugget. These are considered frontend, middle, and backend offers that they use to make more money from each customer.

Ok, now that we’re hungry let’s apply this concept to affiliate marketing.

Affiliate Programs With a Value Ladder

So we want to look for those programs that have a high-value low end offer to use as bait. Whether that’s a free trial, a free eBook or a cheap course that provides a lot of value and helps solve your audience’s problems.

We’re going to look for those programs that have the bait to get customers into the door. And then we want to look for programs that have these frontend, middle, and backend offers that we can continue to make more money on overtime without lifting a finger.

We want to look for a company that has a subscription service, maybe they have offer one-on-one training, and then they have higher level courses or products on the back end. Remember that once we get somebody in the door through our affiliate links any purchases they make on the backend are tracked, which means we’ll continue to get paid a commissions!.

This is why the finding a program that has a value ladder is the number one secret to having massive success as an affiliate marketer.

Value Ladder Examples

Now I’m not going to leave you hanging.

Let’s talk about some companies that have a value ladder that you can begin promoting right away. And then let’s also chat about how you can create your own value ladder for your audience.

The first example is ClickFunnels.  They are the best sales funnel software that helps generate hundreds of millions of dollars each year for their users.

They offer their best selling books as bait to get customers in the door. Then they offer their one funnel away challenge, 30 Days summit, and software subscription on the backend.

You’re job as an affiliate is to get people into the door by sending traffic to their high converting book offers. Then you’ll have the opportunity to make over $248 on the backend. And that doesn’t include the recurring revenue that you’ll receive for each member you refer that signs up for their software.

Clickfunnels is a perfect example of a company that offers a value ladder for their affiliates.

The second example is Legendary Marketer. They are the best online marketing education company that teaches people how to be successful starting their own online businesses.

The CEO Dave Sharpe offers several front end offers including an eBook and a challenge to get customers into the door.  

Then on the backend the company offers several subscription products, courses, masterminds and 1 on 1 coaching that pay affiliates up to $2,850 in commissions.

The best part about their company is they give you the ability to earn as you learn. To become an affiliate for Legendary Marketer you must take the 15 day challenge to get a better understanding of the products you’ll be promoting. During this process Dave teaches you the exact steps you need to follow to have success with affiliate marketing.

How Do You Create a Value Ladder for Clients?

Now let’s talk about creating a value ladder of your own. Say we’re promoting a company like Shopify which only offers one product for us to earn commissions on as an affiliate.

We can promote other products to our audience that we know will help solve their problems.  By following this model we can collect their email address to follow up with them and introduce these other offers. I’ll have the full step by step tutorial showing you this process linked at the end of this video. 

But first we must first think about what types of problems our audience faces.

For people using Shopify they’ll probably need to find high quality suppliers that ship products to their customers quickly. It’s becoming tougher and tougher to build a successful dropshipping business shipping cheap products from China using AliExpress. So we can promote a product like Saleshoo through email and earn over $170 in commissions in the process.

Since they’re running an ecommerce store your audience will need to master paid advertising. So we can find Facebook & Instagram ads courses like this one that have an affiliate program. This course is $297 and we can make $100 per referral on the backend by sending an email out to our audience.

Another great place to look for affiliate offers to promote that’ll help our audience solve their problems using Shopify is Clickbank.

We can scroll the E-Business & E-Marketing category of the marketplace to find dozens of relevant products to promote. For example, we can look into the copywriting, e-commerce operations, email marketing, and pay per click advertising sections to find products that will provide value to our audience and pay us a commission for promoting them.

Partnering with companies that offer a value ladder is the biggest secret to having success as an affiliate. And if the product you want to promote doesn’t have one, you can always build your own by finding other products to promote that will solve your audience’s problems.
