Re: Will any companies run PPC campaigns on commission?

Using that way you can send clickers to any url and if affiliate link uses a cookie then it can record sale even if done later whatever.
The company paid for the adwords directly off their cc, so it was no risk to me and did not cost me anything as the adwords a/c was in their name, but I was most happy doing adwords on that basis.
I do an adwords campaign for another company on a non commission basis and was paid a one off fee to set it up, but of course ever since I am asked to check this and that, and wish I had worked out commission with them instead, as it is more motivating when on commission.

That is exactly what I had in mind. Essentially, I as a small business owner can allocate a budget towards monthly advertising (i.e. 300$) - however in order to maximize the conversion rates, it would seem logical for me to outsource to an expert in the field would be in a better position to use cutting edge/proven techniques.
I would also have the confidence that my campaigns are being well looked after and updated due to the fait commission the "expert(s)" would receive from every add-related sale.
Do you know if working on commission alone is standard practice out there or are you an exception to the rule?
