Asking for advice - a cool gift for affiliates?

Hey guys,


I'm new to the scene, I have just finished my first info product (health/remedies niche) and I'm trying to reach out to a few affiliates.

I have to say I don't know their names (or products they are associated with) just some sort of code name I can email (Clickbank policy).

These guys are getting probably tons of JV proposals , and I'd like to distinguish myself.

I CAN ONLY EMAIL THEM ONCE.

Somebody suggested to offer some sort of cool gift, do you have any suggestions?

Thanks!

      Provide for them all the marketing copy content, emails, graphics help, and testimonials for your product that you can. A few product owners do this very successfully . . . most just rely on the affiliate to come up with his own marketing stuff.

    100% commission works for me. And higher for affiliates who make X sales for you - I've seen 200% and more offered on that basis.

    Lifetime commissions work nicely as well.

      Thanks for all these insights, guys. This is actually a interesting topic, about giving them 100% commissions on front end. Thing is, Clickbank denies me that possibility, max. is 75%.

      How can I bypass that? simply pay the through paypal etc..?thing is, you don't always know who made that sale as an affiliate.

        Get your affiliates to sign up to your list and ask for their Clickbank ID and their Paypal address.

        Clickbank show the affiliate ID against each sale and there are also other reports that they give you.

    Bonus Software, or tools to help them? Offer them high commission? Affiliates are looking for high commission.

    Some suggest offering a t-shirt or something like this. I even saw that one person received a t-shirt and a mini drone (I would love a drone).
    These things are cool, don`t get me wrong, but what all the affiliates want is a bump in the commission. (maybe not all of them want a t-shirt, but if you give them more money they can buy whatever they want).
