The answer is “It Is Not Totally True”. If you are doing a short term business approach by promoting the affiliate link directly, you do not have to worry about anything as your main goal is to get the sales. But if you are building your own list to build a long term business, customer support will be vital to your business growth.

When you have your own list, you will need to follow up with your customer. Some of them might trust in your product recommendation and actually purchase the product. As you will be the one that promote the product to them, it is natural that they will look for you if they have any questions. It is thus important that you have some knowledge of the product that you promote to your list.

When you are trying your trying best to help your list with all the problems, you will be building a good relationship with them as they can sense that you are sincere in helping them. If you are willing to give good customer support while promoting other people’s product, your subscribers will have the perception that you will have fantastic customer support if you are selling your own product.

Thus it is very important that you give good customer support as it will helps to build a good relationship with your list. You will want to reply back your customer’s enquiry as soon as possible whenever they send a email or ticket to you.
