Any experience with this affiliate program?

Hi Carnby

This is the most frequent question I get from affiliates...so well done for spotting it.

I have a stock answer prepared for this because I've been through this explanation so many times already with our existing affiliates.

Getting paid on Amazon is like hitting a bullseye, but getting paid on TogetherSave is like owning a money funnel. Let me explain...

On Amazon.com, you might get paid a higher percentage, but you get paid less over all.

1. You don't get paid on sales occuring after 24 hours...the "cookie length" issue
2. You don't get paid where a coupon site hijacks your hard work and steals the customer (more frequent now than ever)...the "last click" issue.
3. You don't get paid for the SEO value you add to Amazon
4. You don't get paid when your customer shares the link with their friend
5. In a market where you are competing with millions of affiliates, high producing strategies are trade secrets.

Compare that to TogetherSave

1. You OWN the product page monopoly on a first come, first served basis with pages allocated in an auction starting at $1.
2. You get paid on SEO traffic
3. You get paid on social referrals
4. No cookie length. You get paid on sales
5. You own the page and can re-sell it, so you build equity
6. Users are strongly incentivised to share their pages (more buyers leads to lower prices)
7. Lower prices usually mean higher conversion rates
8. By cooperating with, rather than competing against, other affiliates, you can quickly discover the best strategies to drive your income from search, social media and other sources higher

Lastly, when a product page reaches the point where the OEM is supplying the product direct, you own a portion of every sale through the lowest cost supplier online. They win, you win, the customer wins. It's the end of the process of dis-intermediation.

On Amazon, you are a small fish in a big pond. On TogetherSave, you own the whole pond which grows over time.
