How to Make Money Selling Magazine Subscriptions From Home
Think about what kind of business opportunity you're looking for. Do you want to sell magazines door-to-door? Do you want to use telephone solicitation? Do you want to create a website and sell magazines online? Each type of magazine subscription business has its pros and cons. List those pros and cons prior to investigating specific magazine affiliates.
Investigate which magazine affiliate program fits best into your business plans. You can use your computer search engine to find company listings and information. As you look into companies check and see if they are affiliated with the Better Business Bureau. Also ask what kind of help they give their agents. Compare the commission rates that they are offering taking the starting prices of the magazines into consideration.
Talk to someone over the phone before you make any firm decisions rather than making a commitment online. Make sure that you print out the agreement that they're offering you and keep it in a safe place. If an initial investment on your part is required, find out precisely what you can expect in return for your payment. Make sure that you create a paper trail so that you can hold the company to their promised commitments.
Prepare a place to work. If you're going door-to-door to sell subscriptions you may want to take copies of magazines to show people. You'll also need flyers or brochures. Find a place out of reach of children and household chaos to store them. If you're selling over the phone, you'll need a quiet place to talk while you're selling. If you're building a website and selling online, you'll need a reliable computer as well as a good and fast Internet connection.
Anticipate the questions that your new customers will ask and be prepared to answer them. Make sure you have a good understanding of how the buying and selling process will work so you can tell them when their first magazines will arrive. Know the the regular news stand price of each magazine you're selling.

How to Get a Free Website for Affiliate Links
Point your browser to a free website builder like Weebly, WebStarts, Webs, Yola or Doodlekit. Click the 'Sign Up' or 'Get Started' button on the preferred provider page and follow the prompts to register for an account.
Log into your account and follow the onscreen instructions to set up a new website title and address. Using Weebly, for example, click the 'Create a Site' option that appears on the page, enter a desired title in the text field provided, specify the type of site you are building, such as 'Business,' and choose a category. Continue to enter a preferred domain name, which makes up the URL address, and then click the 'Continue' button.
Design your website pages using the tools in your account. For instance, with Yola, click the 'Page' menu to create the number of pages you need, click the 'Style' menu, select a ready-made page design and click the 'Layout' column to set up the appearance of any rows or columns on your pages. Further, click the widgets in the 'Basic' box on the right and drag them to your page to automatically insert elements such as text blocks and videos.
Add affiliate links and marketing features, such as banners, to your preferred pages. To illustrate, click Doodlekit's 'Google AdSense / Advertising Tool' in the menu bar and enter your AdSense client ID (if applicable), or paste another companies' code in the designated text area in the advertising module. Alternately, with WebStarts, click the 'Insert' menu, select the 'HTML Code' option and paste your affiliate code to display your links.
Click the 'Save' and 'Publish' options to save your work and make your website viewable on the Internet. View your provider's 'FAQ,' 'Support' or 'Help' page if you need help finding these features.
