Butterfly Marketing Site Pricing Structure/JV Commission Help?

Hello all,

I posted this on the caterpillar forums but I never seem to get any help over there, so I turn to you, fellow Warriors, as you have never let me down. Okay enough brown-nosing and to my questions:

Anyone have any ideas as to pricing structure for products/OTO's, etc.? Here's what I mean:

Initial product - $47 ebook
OTO is an upsell to video package + ebook for $67

Here's where I get a bit confused. Now if the initial offering of the ebook should be $47 and the "retail" price of the video package is $97, I figure $67 is a good price for an OTO. What if I wanted to offer an OTO downsell of say an audio + ebook where the "retail" price would be $67? What would I set the OTO to, $57? That's only $10 off. It's not proportional to the savings on the initial OTO.

Second related question, I got an authorize.net account when I got BFM 2.0 (separate purchase suggested by Filsaime once we got BFM 2.0). I was considering using that for processing as well as the 1-click upsell. How do you handle affiliate commissions with that? Is there an Insta-pay method or is that only with PayPal?

Third and final question, is it better to use Aweber (I don't have an account but that's easily remedied), to use the built in mailer within BFM (I think it only does "broadcasts"), or a combination of both? I see that Filsaime uses both when you buy BFM and honestly I get annoyed because he sends out a broadcast and I get it twice.

Using the above as a guideline, this is what I would ultimately like to do but am not sure it's possible:

Initial offer $47 ebook
OTO $67 video + ebook
(maybe an OTO downsell)

I want to offer 100% commission to JV partners on the ebook but $0 on the OTO. This way they get to keep the full $47 and I make nothing on that sale but they are more likely to promote for me if they get 100% of the front end. I can settle for just the backend on that. Same deal with the downsell - 100% commission for JV partners and 0% on the backend. Is this what split-pay is? The idea here is that I'm looking to a) make a profit if I can and b) build a list as I have none.

I would like to change this to 75% or 50% for "normal" affiliates and again, keep all the backend for myself.

I would also like the ability to pay commissions instantly using the above scenario. Unless it really isn't that big of a deal to settle up once a month or whatever the normal structure is.

Is it possible to do any of this?
