Follow up is basically a check on your affiliates and the progress, if any they are making. It enables you to understand them better and help them if they find any area that is complicated to understand. Sometimes affiliates shy away from asking questions in the belief that they will seem somewhat silly or inferior so a follow-up takes away that inhibition.
I use my Movers List to keep a daily check on my workers and when I find that someone has not logged in for more than 2 days, I see this as a necessary point in time to send out an e-card making sure that everything is okay and ask why the affiliate has not logged in for a few days. E-Cards are very useful.
This first e-card brings up the answer why the affiliate has not logged in and gives me an indication of any suggestions or answers I can provide to the cause of not being active. Secondly it ensures regular contact which is important to have so that you keep the affiliate motivated and not lose focus.
As I have found in the past, writing emails to affiliates brings up a certain amount of informal communication set up and affiliates respond to this positively - I bring up new developments and areas that the affiliate may not have had a chance to look at. It gives the affiliate something to do towards the business.
I like to keep lines of communications open so in most cases, I pass on my skype or personal telephone contact to the serious affiliates and this shows my seriousness towards their progress. Very often, phone messages are a quick way to encourage people. A good word, praise, appreciation and rewards should never be underestimated. It generally makes people feel good about what they are doing.
