What I Learned from 100 Days of Affiliate Marketing on Warrior Plus

Spending 100 days diving into the affiliate marketing trenches on Warrior Plus taught me more than just how to earn commissions. It exposed the real challenges, uncovered hidden gems, and gave me clarity on what actually works — and what's just hype.

Here's a transparent breakdown of what I learned (the good, the bad, and the real money-makers):

🔥 1. Product Quality Varies — A LOT
Not all offers on Warrior Plus are created equal. Some are solid training programs or tools, while others... well, let's just say they're more about flashy sales pages than real value.

Lesson:
Before promoting anything, I learned to buy the product myself or go through real reviews. Promoting junk may get short-term commissions, but it kills trust fast.

💰 2. High EPC Doesn't Always Mean High Earnings for You
"EPC" (Earnings Per Click) can be misleading. Just because a product has high EPC stats doesn't mean your audience will convert on it.

Lesson:
Know your audience and only promote what makes sense for them. A high-converting offer to someone else's list may flop on yours.

💡 3. Bonuses Make or Break Your Campaigns
Everyone's promoting the same product — what sets you apart? Bonuses.

Lesson:
The most successful days came when I:

Offered custom bonuses I created (eBooks, mini-courses, templates)

Used scarcity (e.g., "only 25 bonus spots")

Made the bonus more valuable than the product itself

📈 4. Email Marketing Is the Real Money-Maker
Sending people directly to affiliate links worked... a little. But when I started building an email list and warming up my subscribers? Game-changer.

Lesson:
The money's in the list. Capture leads first, deliver value, and then promote.

Tools I used:

GetResponse (for email)

ConvertBox (for opt-in popups)

WarriorPlus affiliate links (cloaked)

⚠️ 5. Shiny Object Syndrome Will Destroy You
Warrior Plus is full of launches — new offers every day claiming to be the "next big thing." Chasing them all? A fast road to burnout.

Lesson:
Stick to 1 or 2 niches. Build systems. Avoid hopping from offer to offer. Consistency > randomness.

🧪 6. Tracking and Testing Is Crucial
At first, I had no clue what was actually driving my sales. I started using tracking links and UTM codes to know:

Which traffic source converted

Which emails got clicks

What bonus pages led to sales

Lesson:
Without tracking, you're flying blind. Tiny tweaks can mean major increases in commissions.

🛠� 7. Tools That Actually Helped Me Succeed
ClickFunnels / Systeme.io – for bonus and bridge pages

Thrive Architect / Elementor – for custom landing pages

GetResponse / MailerLite – for email follow-up

Bit.ly or PrettyLinks – to cloak & track affiliate links

📊 Final 100-Day Breakdown:
Total Sales: $3,276

Net Profit (after tools/ads): ~$2,050

Main Traffic Sources: YouTube (review videos), Facebook Groups, Email

Top Niches: Make Money Online, Email Marketing, Funnels

🧠 What I'd Do Differently:
Start building a list from Day 1

Focus on evergreen affiliate products with recurring commissions

Avoid reviewing every shiny launch — focus on a long-term brand
