5 Star Affiliate Programs :: New Programs Bottom of Page 4

[Linda Buquet]

Hi WebPros,

I invited merchants and advertisers to announce their affiliate programs. Since I am the moderator here, I represent so many partner programs, I didn't think it was fair to clog up the forums with individual invitations to all my programs. So I am making just one post that includes them all.


I am an affiliate management consultant representing a select group of some of the top converting and highest paying affiliate programs available.

~ NEW EveryTicket - Sports, Concerts and Theater premium seating tickets. If your site visitors are interested in sports, music or just having fun - this program is for you! 7% commission & 60 days cookies make this a winning program you will be glad to promote.

~ www.IntelliContactPro.com - Email Marketing - LifeTime residual commissions, 3 year cookies, 2 tier commissions

~ DentalPlans - One of the highest EPCs on CJ - private program pays even more! Top affiliate in July made over $7,000

~ zZounds - Highest commission on musical instruments and longest cookies (FREE DATAFEED)


You can find program details and sign up links for all my 5 Star Affiliate Programs here:

Please let me know if you sign up for any of these lucrative offers. I am the Affiliate manager for Irvs and Executive Essentials but only consult for the others so would like to let the Affiliate Manager for the other programs know you joined and that they should give you special attention and/or preferred rates if you are a PRO.

I will post updates, news and announcements in this thread as well. If you have questions about any of these programs, feel free to post them here or email me. I work for YOU!

Hi All

I have a new affiliate program I am in the process of setting up and wanted to ask for your feedback. The merchant sells premium seating tickets for concerts, sporting events etc. Average Sale $300 - $400 and we will be offering a good commission.

The owner is considering offering a 2 tier commission because a competitor does. My feeling is that 2 tier programs are better suited for webmaster related products. I don't think that many ticket selling affiliates would be interested in 2 tier recruiting.

I think I'd rather put money into 1st tier bonus incentives.

But then again, I'm not the boss - I WORK FOR YOU!

Thanks in advance for any feedback. So what do you guys think?

CCD would be interrested and would this merchant consider a code of some sort? ;)

I agree about the 2 tier commissions. It is something I feel is more for webmaster products and I am all for bonuses. Bonuses inspire ya to work harder and sell more IMHO.

BTW Linda I emailed ya about Irvs and the lot! ;) Lemme know!

Revi,

It was great dicussing your super cool site (by email) and making some recommendations that I think could help you increase your affiliate income. I am excited to have you my team for some of my top programs!

As far as coupon codes for my event ticket client, I am not certain, but will definately suggest it. 1st need to get the program launched, then I will discuss it with the CEO.

Thanks!

[Revi]

Looking forward to it Linda! :) Thanks for all the help and advice mate! Cant wait for this new one to get moving!

Hi Linda

Cheers

Hi Chris,

Irvs/EE/Roadloans/DentalPlans are on all on CJ.

DentalPlans is also on BeFree, DarkBlue several other small networks and has a strong in-house program.

ZZounds, Intellicontact and my newest client I just launced yesterday - Avid Hosting are all in-house.

The new sports and concert ticket affiliate program I will be launching next week is in-house with myaffiliate tracking.

On My 5 Star site - I include the tracking software or Network used in each affiliate program review.

Most of my clients already had programs set up so I basically work with whatever they already have in place and try to optimize their existing program.

It looks like you prefer LinkShare and set most of your clients up on that network, right? What do you see as LinkShare's strong points?

I have been working behind the scenes on solving the 800 phone # tracking issue for you all. I know this is a big area of affiliate commission leakage and am excited to announce that some of my merchants are implementing solutions as we speak.

zZounds is the 1st to make the bold move and phone orders are now being tracked. I couldn’t talk about it because they would not even give me the details until their patent was filed.

"When a phone customer calls in, we try to get a unique ID from their web browser so that we can attribute their sales to our marketing efforts. These marketing efforts include you, our affiliates, as well as other paid advertising. This ID is displayed near the top of the browser and states "Mention priority code #XXXX when you call". Our Customer Service Representatives (CSRs) are instructed and incented to collect this ID."

Having an 800# is very important to online sales and legit businesses MUST have an 800# for questions or for people who are afraid to order online. However, some products tend to get more phone calls. With zZounds I assume customers sometimes have tech questions like "which is the best turntable that has xyz features?" or "my speakers just blew - what brand to you think is the most reliable and the best price?"

So for zZounds to now track and credit affiliates for phone sales I think is HUGE and shows how high integrity they are. They even have a patent pending the process they are using to do this.
