Affiliate Marketing Opportunity - Hard to Pass Up

Gourmet meat is on the rise in America as hippies, vegans, household mothers, etc. demand quality, healthy, untainted food. (I know, I know, How Dare them) The fact is people are shelling out more cash for all-natural organic food. This includes fruits, vegetables, rice, grains, and MEAT. With Mad Cow Disease, pesticides and all the other factors that could taint your meat people are looking for proven, quality alternatives. The demand for Gourmet Meats has never been greater and affiliates have a great opportunity to capitalize.

In 2006 consumers purchased 544 million pounds of Angus beef for $2.3 billion in sales. USDA “Prime” beef and Kobe beef are the other two suppliers of Gourmet Meat along with Certified Angus Beef. The Internet has provided a new medium for people to order meat without having to leave their house. Here is a list of Gourmet Meat sites with Affiliate Programs:

* a La Zing - member of LinkShare offers fully-cooked meals, high-grades meats and a healthy alternative to eating out. Pays 10-18% commission on all goods. Owned by Omaha Steaks, the leader in meat retail

* Artiko - member of Share a Sale offers premium steaks, meats and other foods that can go from the freezer to the grill. Artiko offers 10% commission with a 60 day cookie life. They offer top-notch support and datafeeds.

* My Butcher - member of Share a Sale has a wide-range of Gourmet Meats, including USDA Prime Choice, Premium Black Angus, and a variety of other meats. Commission is set at 16% with a 60 day cookie life. My Butcher has been a member of Share a Sale since 2003.

* Niman Ranch - member of Share a Sale offers all-natural farm grown beef. Known for quality and taste, Niman Ranch pays 8% commission with a 45 day tracking period.

The great thing about Gourmet Meats is that they can be paired with other targetable products. Wine and kitchen accessories are just two categories that can be linked together. Develop a niche for Gourmet Meats and like products and share in the profits of the booming industry.
