Hello Warrior,
What will you call him? A marketer or a spoil brat?
He gets recurrent checks on just one time lead, he has designed banners already prepared for him. Emails tools crafted, articles written, keywords sorted out, multiple training modules and videos, viral high converting websites designed and hosted for him freely. Brandable reports loaded for him, 3-5 unique landing pages created and 24/7 hot line support provided. Even recently tweets are also given to him. Some merchants even provide him with some PPC dollars and sometimes given 100% of the sales!
Yes he rakes in all the money.
What do you call such? A super affiliate? No. I disagree. I rather say a pampered highly paid affiliate.
No wonder everyone wants to belong there. It's really life beyond stress.
My concern now is who slaves for whom? The pampered highly paid affiliate or the creator of the program.
My quest is on...

bdian.

    Let me translate this a little.

    Recent affiliate programs have given the affiliates all the tools they need to promote an offer: banners, emails, sales pages, predefined tweets, etc.

    The OP is basically complaining that these people are having everything handed to them by the vendor, and it's all too easy for them.

    I agree it makes things easy, but I don't think they really get too much out of it. The super affiliates are the ones who drive serious traffic and get serious conversion. The predefined stuff doesn't do that. When people use the predefined stuff and don't even TRY to improve its performance, I call that "affidiot marketing."
