Our Affiliate Program rewards those who refer their contacts
to buy our products. Many people have been doing this without compensation,
just because they love our products. But we believe in the abundance
mentality and want to share our money-making experience with others.
Who is the Affiliate Program for?
All those who want to make money in their sleep.
Products have been a wonderful additional revenue source for us,
and now you can build product revenue for yourself or your business
without the hassle of creating the content yourself, getting it
produced, holding inventory and tying up your cash.
The affiliate program is ideal for consultants, career
coaches, networking organizations, trade associations, professional
service firms…anyone who believe in the power of networking
and wants to help their clients, partners, employees, friends and
colleagues network more effectively. When your contacts learn how
to network more effectively, they’ll understand better how
to network with and refer business to you and others in their network.
Everyone wins.
How does it work?
When you sign up to become an affiliate, you will
receive a special affiliate link that contains your unique affiliate
ID. Refer colleagues, friends, clients and contacts to our site
using your special affiliate link. When they click on to the site
using your link, our system places a cookie on their computer with
your affiliate ID attached to it. When they buy something, our
shopping cart records that sale and credits you automatically
as the referrer.
Which products can I refer?
Currently there are three networking products available:
- 102 Secrets to Smarter Networking Booklet ($10)
- Networking to Win Audio Program – Electronic version ($47)
- Networking to Win Audio Program – Physical version ($67)
As we add new products to the site, we’ll let
you know so that you can inform your contacts and make more money
when they purchase.
How much money can I make?
There’s no limit. You make 25% commission on
any of the networking products we have available to affiliates.
You don’t have to take orders, hold inventory or fulfill the
product. We do all of that. All you have to do is refer your colleagues,
friends, clients and contacts to our website using your special
affiliate link. And when they buy, you get paid.
Many of you have already made lots of referrals to
us (thank you, by the way!) without any compensation and this is
our way of saying thank you and to encourage you to do it more often!
How do I market your products?
Any way that is comfortable for you. You can:
- Send an e-mail to your contacts to tell them about our products,
making sure that your affiliate link is included in the e-mail
- Include your affiliate link in your monthly e-newsletter, if
you have one
- Add your affiliate link to your SIG file at the end of every
e-mail
- Post your affiliate link on your own website
There’s no restriction on how you choose to
market our products as long as it is legal and ethical.
Who can become an affiliate?
Anyone can become an affiliate, as long as they:
- use only ethical marketing methods to promote
our products. We will NOT tolerate anyone promoting us via unsolicited
e-mail marketing (or "spam").
- do not promote our products via sites or marketing
that contain offensive content.
- do not use their affiliate links for their
own purchases.
We reserve the right to discontinue an affiliate
relationship with any affiliate violating any of the above policies.
What does it cost to become an affiliate?
Nothing. There is no cost to join at this time, though
that could change in the future.
How long can I be an affiliate?
It’s up to you. As long as you keep referring
and your contacts keep buying, you’ll keep receiving commissions
subject to our policies and Terms of Service, outlined on the affiliate
sign up form. But you are free to stop referring people to our website
anytime.
How do I get paid and how often?
There are two ways to receive your affiliate commissions
– through PayPal and by check. You choose that option when
you sign up. Checks are denominated in US dollars only, while PayPal
is available in 5 different currencies.
Payments to affiliates will be made monthly on or
about the 20th of each month. The minimum payout is $40. If the
commission you accrue in a particular month does not meet the minimum
payout amount, it will roll over to the next month and be added
to any additional commission you make then. Once your total commission
reaches $40 in a given month, we will send your full commission
payment by the 20th of the following month.
Note: Refunds and returns are excluded from the commission
calculation.
What if I don’t have a PayPal account?
We suggest you get one. It’s FREE and easy
to set up. Click
here to learn about setting up a PayPal account. Otherwise,
we'll pay you by check.
What do I have to do in any given month?
Not much. We handle all the order taking and product
fulfillment. You sit back and collect your commission. The more
you actively market our products, the more commission you will receive.
What do I need to sign up?
All you need is a PayPal account or bank account.
You don’t even need a website because you can place your affiliate
link in an e-mail message or SIG file. If you do have a website
or an e-newsletter, we encourage you to add your affiliate link
there as well for maximum exposure and maximum commissions!
How do I get started?
First, get your PayPal
account.
Next go to the affiliate
application form. Once you submit your information, you will
receive a welcome e-mail with your unique affiliate link and login
information. Keep that e-mail handy.
