best affiliates : what rewards should i use?

10 replies
hi

I am rolling out 2 IM products very soon.

To attract affiliates i will do 2 things:

give 75% for the first week instead of 50%
and the best affiliate will get presents.

i need help with the presents....

I was thinking of wii/ps3/xbox 360 for the first reward after making maybe 2 to 5k (the products will be $60 a year).
Then i was thinking of entering all the people that reach that level into a draw and offer a trip or a cruise maybe.

If you were selling my product what present would you want?

    I've seen more and more people giving cash as rewards but I would really like to win a Wii personally

    Here are some ideas .... lol.. Actually they were on to something. The more choices you give the more kids (people) dream of reaching those goals.

    cash rewards are the best, because affiliate are going to promote you product because of money thats what they want.

    If you offer other rewards the affiliates might

    already have it

    or not care for it


    But you know that they are after money, so that is the way to go

    hope this helps

      Yes, cash rewards are one of the best things you can offer.

    I would give cash rewards for sure. Everyone is not interested in a certain product as a reward. But everybody is interested in cash.

    Even if you get lots of takers for a specific reward. Cash is king! You can purchase whatever you want with it if you have enough.

    Why don't you survey them to see what they would want?
