« Top Affiliates, Like Most Internet Marketers, Are Quite Busy And Don’t Have Much Time To Thoroughly Consider Your Proposal For Them To Join Your Affiliate Program And Promote Your Product Offers. | Home | It’s Important To Keep Top Affiliates In Your Affiliate Program Motivated And Eager To Sell Your Products. This Means Continuously Providing Valuable New Products To Sell Over Time; Having Them Sell One Product, No Matter How Great The Conversion Ratio Is In The Beginning, Will Likely Lead To Your Top Affiliates Leaving Your Program. »
Asking Other Internet Marketers Catering To Your Target Market To Join Your Affiliate Program And Promote Your Products Is A Solid Idea, But Is Not Always Easy To Implement. Like Many Potential Customers, They’ll Likely Ask, “What’s In It For Me?” They’re Certainly Not Going To Be Willing To Go Out Of Their Way To Promote Your Product For You To Their Lists Without There Being Some Substantial Benefits In It For Them.

Offering a high commission rate is one way to begin an appropriate proposal. It almost certainly has to be over 50% though, as virtually every affiliate program offers at least 50%. To further accentuate how much you value the internet marketer’s involvement in your affiliate program, you should be willing to give him/her a higher percentage than your regular affiliates. If you offer your regular affiliates 60%, you might consider giving the Internet marketer 75% or even 80% from each sale made.
You should also be willing to provide special bonuses that only his/her customers can receive for ordering through his/her link - this will help to encourage the marketer’s subscribers to purchase your product, thereby giving him/her more profit, which will make the marketer all that more eager to promote your product to his/her list.
However, the perks you give to this Internet marketer may not end when your product’s popularity starts declining. Being that the marketer likely develops new products from time to time, he/she may require or request that you return the favor and promote his/her product to your subscribers. Of course, you should confirm that this product is of high quality before committing to present it to your subscribers, but you should certainly be willing to entertain that possibility - it’s much like ezine advertising where one publisher will present another marketer’s ads in his/her newsletter to his/her subscribers in return for the other marketer presenting the first marketer’s offer in his/her newsletter to his/her subscribers. It’s definitely a give-and-take situation, but can be well-worth it to add a potential super affiliate to your affiliate sales force and increase your profits.
