Got contacted w an on/offline sales proposition how 2 handle it?
They wanted to know if I could take a look at their website to improve on it. I mentioned that even if they had the nicest site on the web it was of no matter unless they were ranked high for related action keywords organically or were running a PPC campaign. I am sure the case here is neither...
It is a decent looking site but just terrible seo wise. It's a small site probably 5-10 pages at most.
They were inquiring about a fee. I have no idea how to quote something like this...
I am not too worried about that, just yet. I first need to determine if they want seo work done after the web site upgrade or just a better web site. The part what I am wondering is below.
I would also like to see if I could become an affiliate and refer sales to them on my own. That way they pay nothing unless I sell their product, the more I sell the more I make. We all know how that works.
If I were to get a small % of each item sold through my efforts what is the best way to track this?
I am fairly sure they have a smaller network of unrelated (different companies) dealers who sell their product across the nation right now and it might complicate things to have to involve them. I'm not sure if I would have to as of yet...
Is there a standard method used to track referrals/orders for smaller companies with no established affiliate program?
I am thinking I would have to route customers through a payment processor with a tracking number attached to my referrals. I am sure there are services that do this. Am I on the right track with that thinking? If not could someone suggest another?
Thanks
