There are several companies that can get you started with your affiliate marketing efforts. One is TMI Wireless (TmiWireless.com). They do not charge you any fees to join the program, and can provide you with a personalized website after you join.

Marquel (Marquel.com) waves membership fees as well. However, they do not offer a free personalized website like TMI Wireless does. When you join their affiliate program, you are provided with links and banner ads that you can add to your existing website that can be imbedded with your affiliate link.

Wireless Emporium (Wirelessemporium.com) is another affiliate program that offers a wide choice of accessory products. Their cell phone accessory line includes chargers, batteries, faceplates, cases, data cables from the leading cell phone brands including Motorola, Nokia, Samsung and LG.

Their commission structure is seventeen percent of gross sales and marketing efforts require that you put a Wireless Emporium advertisement on your own individual website. In some cases, selling products as an affiliate marketer requires that you set up an e-commerce store.

TMI Wireless is a rare exception in that they provide a website to their customers for free. Setting up a website can be easy or difficult depending on your skill level.

There are several options that you can employ if you don’t have any expertise in web design. One company that caters to the technically challenged is Square Space (Squarespace.com).

Squarespace.com is a fill in the blank style of web design and hosting service that makes it easy for anyone with limited technical knowledge to get a site up and running. They also feature a variety of professionally designed search-engine friendly templates that you can customize.

Personal website packages for Squarespace.com start at seven dollars per month. Business packages start at twenty-five dollars per month. Other, more expensive and feature rich options are available as well. Another option is Yahoo Stores (Smallbusiness.Yahoo.com/Ecommerce).

Yahoo stores are more suited for multiple product sales, and can be a perfect fit for an affiliate program that features an extensive product line of cell phone accessories. Their monthly hosting fees start at forty dollars per month.

Whatever business model you choose to follow, or selling strategy you plan to employ, you now have a number of choices when it comes to entering the cell phone accessory business. As with any Entrepreneurial venture you plan on getting involved with, make sure that you understand your market and your customers, and investigate any affiliate program you plan on getting involved with.
