Internet Profit Building Method #5 

Establish Joint Venture Deals 

Advertising is expensive and it's risky.  Don't get me wrong.  I do spend 

money on advertising, but I always consider this  second best.   It's risky

affiliates themselves. It is a well known fact that only a small percentage of 

your affiliates will produce the majority of your sales. Too many of them are 

signing up and just hoping to generate traffic or make sales. You will have to
