How to Make Money from New Year’s Resolutions

Last Updated by 17 Comments

The New Year is looming large and it's time to think about how best to profit from all the New Years resolutions that will be made — and eventually mostly broken so you can profit from them again next year. 🙂

Here are the top 10 resolutions along with corresponding affiliate programs and Clickbank best-sellers that you can promote.

1. Spend More Time with Family & Friends

Polls indicate that more than 50% of those surveyed make a promise to spend more time with family and friends in the coming year. Help people do that with programs like:

2. Get Fit

Nothing does as much good for a body as a regular fitness program. Exercise extends life expectancy, lowers blood pressure, improves your mood and even reduces the risk of some cancers. Too, one of the fastest-growing trends in the fitness industry is involving children in exercise. Great online fitness programs and ebooks include:

3. Lose Weight

More than two thirds of Americans are either overweight or obese, so it's not surprising that one of the most popular New Year's resolutions is to lose weight. Programs to help folks shed those extra pounds include:

  • Fat Loss 4 Idiots ($30.37/sale – Clickbank)
  • eDiets (up to $50/sale – CJ)
  • Drugstore.com (10.00% commission – Linkshare)

4. Quit Smoking

The average smoker trys and fails 4 times before they quite for good. Help them kick the smoking habit for good this year with:

5. Enjoy Life More

Considering the pressures of a bad economy, job uncertainty and all the other stressors facing the average person today, it's no wonder that “enjoying life more” has become a popular resolution in recent years. Help them do just that by introducing them to a new hobby or leisure time pursuit, i.e. scrapbooking or photography; or engaging in current pursuits like travelling more and listening to music. Even better is when you can help them find a great deal!

  • Hotwire.com (2% commissions – Linkshare)
  • 500 Scrapbooking Sketches ($/sale: $12.79)
  • iTunes (5% commission – Linkshare)

6. Quit Drinking or Drink Less

Alchoholism is rampant in our stressed-out societies. If you want to help prevent some of the incredible damage that alchoholism wreaks on individuals and their families, share your knowledge and support with others to help them overcome this devastating condition… or just convince them to drink less while opting for BETTER quality.

  • HypnoBusters (50% commissions – Ejunkie)
  • My Way Out (15% commissions – Independent)
  • Wine.com (5 – 20% commissions – Linkshare)

7. Get Out of Debt

With the economy falling apart at the seams, people losing their jobs everyday by the tens of thousands, more and more folks are realizing the need to free themselves from the burden of debt. You can help them with programs such as:

  • Leo Quinn's “How to Own Your Paycheck Again” (up to 50% commissions – Independent)
  • Ultimate Debt Relief Guide ($22.60 per sale – Clickbank)

8. Education – Self-Improvement

Once again, a weakened economy is forcing many to look farther afield to improve their educational standings, and as in any typical year there are others who just seek self-improvement.

9. Volunteerism & Charities

In good economic times, many people commit to helping others. In tough times when many are out of work, volunteering is a good route to finding gainful employment.

10. Get Organized

This is one of those resolutions that I have every year… check out this blog post and you'll see why. 🙂 Help people like me reduce the clutter and get organized with

As always, you can search for programs and information related to these and other topics on the major affiliate networks, such as Clickbank, Commission Junction, Linkshare and Google.

  2. I read the article, it was great.

    Rosalind, I just wanted to let you know that my new-years resolution was to actually get a website online. I’m a perfectionist, so whenever I’ve tried to get a site online in the past, the slightest issue would stop me.

    But I got over it. I’ve written out a business/action plan, and I’m just past the ‘buy hosting, put site online’ part. It’s not perfect, but it’s a start.

    So thanks for the inspiration 🙂

    • Hi Mike,

      You make a great point. I understand perfectionism and although it’s a tough thing to overcome, overcome you must.

      Congratulations!

      Cheers,
      Ros

  3. The article looks great…but I’m stuck in a loop when I try to get to it. I signed up for your newsletter and have the password. When I click on the article title it asks for the password. I supply the password and am taken back to the article list.

  4. Rosalind – I am beginning to think you are the queen of valuable content, you always deliver so much. I appreciate your heart to help others create wealth through affiliate marketing. I was able to hear your story as a member of Russell Brunson’s mentoring. The interview you conducted with him was eye opening.

    I wish for you and your family a blessed holiday and I will get going on this list.

  5. Hi there,

    I really like your blog! I have looked at a few of the top blogs today – and some of them are soooooooooooo dry!

    I like the fact you have a photo of you at the top, I am going to borrow that tip for my blog and see if I can have a picture of me up. It makes it come over more friendly, which is something I do look for in a blog.

    I am one of Alex Jeffreys students, part of the team he is mentoring. We have set up blogs and we are doing a competition to see who can get the most traffic – prize is $1,000. So anything we can find to improve our blogs is really gratefully recieved!

    Best wishes,

    Ruth Stewart

  6. Entering the password takes you to a listing of articles, with the How to Make Money from New Year’s Resolutions nowhere to be seen. Too bad, it would have likely been a good read.

    You may want to take a look at this Ros – I’d suspect that most won’t want to hunt around your site to find the rest of the article.

    • Hi Hal,

      That’s really, really odd. Because it is the last article published in that section, it comes right to the top of the page.

      Here’s the link.

      Cheers,
      Ros

    • Hi Monty,

      So sorry for the inconvenience.

      If you received the newsletter on the 16th (or today’s) then you should have the password.

      It will be included in every newsletter going forward.

      Cheers,
      Ros

  10. Thank you, Ros

    My friend and I bought your wonderful book and decided to take the plunge into affiliate marketing. After a lot of hard work and a few tears, we have launched our site. And we already have some traffic – in just two days!

    Thank you for generously sharing your experience and expertise with us.

    And please visit our site and give us your opinion – good, bad or ugly – we want to hear it.

    Much love and graditude,

    Coty Fowler

    • Hey Coty,

      I can see that you’ve already done a TON of work and traffic in 2 days… that’s fabulous. Gotta love those blogs. Barring a few minor issues with your banners being too wide at the bottom of the right sidebar, your new site looks great.

      I’ll suggest that you might want to get rid of the date option in your permalinks — that can make otherwise ‘evergreen’ articles look unnecessarily dated.

      And, when you can, invest in a really professional looking header graphic…. something I should take my own advice on… 🙂

      Please drop by the forum (when it’s working again) and let us know how things are going.

      Best to you both!!

      Cheers,
      Ros
