What’s that I hear? Sleigh Bells? Carolers? If I wasn’t mistaken, I’d dare say those are the sounds of the Holiday Season. And even though Fall is just arriving and Christmas is still over two months away, you can certainly feel the Holiday Spirit in the air.
For many people, the Holiday’s can be a hectic time of year. So much so, in fact, those of use who are used to going green will oftentimes opt for the quickest, most affordable fix for our Holiday activities – namely the one activity that generates the most waste and Carbon footprint. And that, my friends, is gift shopping.
That said, let us recall the many factors that contribute to successful affiliate marketing, or should I say, conversions resulting in commissions – because let’s face it – earning revenue is the key to keeping your affiliate marketing business going and growing. One of these factors is offering products that have good conversion rates. Oftentimes, these are products/services that can only be purchased online or are better priced than land-based retailers. And green holiday supplies, namely green wrapping paper and green holiday cards, are exactly this type of product.
For green affiliate marketers, this is precisely the type of niche, seasonal business opportunity that can be capitalized on. NOW, is the time to start sending out those emails (no spamming, of course), and writing/publishing content that gives consumers the opportunity to buy green holiday supplies, which for the most part, are difficult to find in land-based stores. It’s also a great time to market eco-friendly holiday gift baskets, which are becoming very popular.
