Hello there Sea Changers. Welcome back to my series of program lists to assist those of you looking to fund your sea change with affiliate marketing. Today we are going to rip off the band aid to look at my 10 medical supplies affiliate programs to dress in this year. Medical supplies are a surprisingly large online business allowing for sale to home users, carers and professionals alike with pricing for some of this equipment accounting for some high ticket opportunities as well.

Before we begin however, I am conscious that there are a number of different areas or sub niches within this subject hence the quantity of affiliate programs to choose from may be just as large. So how have I picked my best 10? Well… I really just wanted to give you a good cross section of what is out there so I did some searching around and checked a few out and chose them by looking at:

• What they offer
• Commission rates
• Payment terms
• Cookie duration
• Application processes
• Affiliate/Marketing materials provided

Before we start however, let’s have a look at what I mean by the term ‘medical supplies’ and how it can be incorporated within an affiliate marketing website…

 

What do we mean by medical supplies?

As we start to look into it, it quickly becomes apparent that this is an extremely large niche with options across a large array of medical needs. So for the purposes of this post, I am going to try and cover a good cross section of what is available out there for affiliate marketers in what I think might just be something that could make a good little online business.

With that in mind, we will check out some affiliate programs from medical supply companies covering such areas as:

• General Medical supplies
• PPE and hygiene
• Equipment
• Furniture
• Uniforms
• Pharma
• Calibration
• Specific disease control
• Pets
• Monitors
• And so much more

And of course anything else you can think of when it comes to making money with medical supplies online… Before we do so however, let’s just check out what we can promote…

What can affiliate marketers promote?

There are essentially no real barriers to what affiliate marketers can promote when it comes to medical supplies. There are however some things to be aware of as you run your eye over medical supply affiliate program possibilities that may suit your site. These are:

1. Know your audience, some are looking for specifics and want the best whilst others are hoping to just get their equipment on a budget. Choose your affiliate sites accordingly.
2. Carers and/or professionals will not take risks if they don’t trust you or your affiliate site. Make sure the programs you choose are reputable and have good recourse options if the purchaser is not happy.
3. Those purchasing for family members etc. will need to know exactly what they need and that the products you are promoting will fit in with their requirements. Make sure your programs can provide the products to back up the information that you are covering and are not putting the health and wellbeing of loved ones at risk.

That said, stats show that people will spend money on medical supplies, devices and equipment online if it can make their lives easier so as long as you are meeting their needs and solving problems, then you are on the right track. And to give you a boost, let’s have a look at 10 programs that I have found below:

Amazon Associates

Alternatively, should you wish to set up your site up with a range from a few different brands or companies on the same site then you can do so via Amazon. Amazon provides access to a good range of medical supply related products and has a fairly good affiliate program as well. So if you wish, join the Amazon Associates program, locate the best products relevant to your site within Amazon itself and you can post links on your own site as per below:

Amazon’s commission rates are not too bad and some prefer this avenue due to the sheer amount of traffic and trustworthiness that comes with a company site of this size.

FAQ

How to find your own affiliate programs

As stated earlier, by outlining the sites above I have really just tried to give you a good cross section of the types of programs that are out there by listing the really good ones in each ‘category’. That does not mean that you cannot find affiliate programs that better suit what it is that you are trying to do within this space especially as I could never even begin to cover every medical equipment related requirement or sub niche in the one post. Luckily for us, there is a simple way to find these programs online.

All you need to do is enter “affiliate: niche type” into your search engine (substituting ‘niche type‘ for whatever product it is that you are choosing to sell).

There are medical related affiliate programs for everything else that we have listed at the top of this page as well – you will just need to have a look around until you find one or two that suit your site. Once you have completed your searches, you can look through and find programs that:

• Relate to your niche/problems that you are solving.
• Have quality products – your brand can be severely damaged if you promote poor quality products.
• Have solid payment and customer service arrangement.
• Pay decent commissions.
• Have good testimonials covering commission payouts and quality of product.

In most cases, you will need to apply for the program before you are allowed to promote their products – don’t take this step lightly or you will be rejected. Affiliate programs will generally want to know:

• Your website name.
• Traffic levels.
• Why you want to join – (so I can make money by selling your surgery scrubs is unfortunately not generally a good enough answer).
• How you plan to promote their products.

Conclusion

So… There are 10 of the best medical supplies affiliate programs to dress this year. I hope it has been helpful for you as you commence your own medical supply based affiliate marketing business and as usual, please do not hesitate to comment below if you have any questions, need some advice or have any experiences to share. Oh, and especially comment if you have any experience with these, or any other programs as well.

Until next time

Have fun
