Duplication involves copying or reproducing your existing business model /system into other markets or into horizontal product lines within the same market. Once you have established yourself successfully with your current business(and put the business on autopilot), you can hunt down new opportunities and repeat the same steps.

1) Research and target a new market or find horizontal product lines you can expand
into within your existing market.
2) Create an offer or solution targeted to the market.
3) Drive market traffic to your offer.
4) Build a backend for additional revenue. While many people ‘s systems end at step 4 this should be the case.

Duplication allows you to explode your overall profits by creating multiple streams of income . Having more than one income stream is crucial for a variety of reasons. The first important one is that, there may come a time that you have squeezed as much as you can from your first bu siness, while you still need to increase your income. Secondly, your niche market may over time become over-saturated with competition. Duplication allows you to double or increase your income over and over again in as many markets as you like.

In order to successfully duplicate your affiliate marketing business, a few questions are pertinent to ask oneself:

a) Do I want to go into a closely related market or a radically new one?

b) What market can I go into that might be even more profitable?

c) Do I want to sell the same type of product or do I want to sell something else?

d) What were some of the obstacles I encountered in my first business that I would like to eliminate this time around?

e) What have I learned so far that will help me create my next business even faster and do it even better?

f) How much of my existing profits can I reinvest into my new business?

These questions will help you make a Strategic decision about when, where, how and what to duplicate.

Duplication of your business is what will put your profits into overdrive. It is more like buying up real estate, where you acquire a property and rent it for a steady stream of income. In order to build on that income, you simply acquire more property and repeat the process. That process should cover the first four components of your affiliate marketing business process : Find a market---Create an offer--- Drive traffic to the offer--- Present backend offers. By creating multiple streams of income duplication will become one of the major factors in your ability to create wealth.
