“I did not have the millions of dollars that my competition did to build a tracking system… but AssocTRAC has allowed us to run a very strong associates program… Revenues were $250,000 last year for my little company!

And it appears that we'll be doing double this or more this year… with AssocTRAC and the 3,000+ active affiliate base we've built.”

Dear Friend,

We've known for years that affiliate programs are the single fastest way to start raking in real money from the Internet.

We've proven this fact year in and year out. We made $3.2 Million last year from our own affiliate program (that's an average of over $8,700 per day, every single day*), and we've taught hundreds of our customers and subscribers how to do the same.

(If you're not already familiar with how an affiliate program works, or you're not sure how YOUR business will benefit from one, please click here now!)

And the truth is that most online entrepreneurs already know that an affiliate program has the potential to dramatically increase their income and sales.

Affiliate programs allow you to:

  • Easily Enlist An Army of Motivated Affiliates! They'll work day and night to promote your product or service -- with no risk to you -- because it's a true "win-win" partnership! When they send you a paying customer, you pay them a commission. If they don't make any sales, it doesn't matter because it didn't cost either of you a dime!

  • Advertise Your Business On Every Corner Of The Web -- For FREE! It's easy to get your name, your products, and your URL on sites big and small all across the Internet -- at absolutely no cost! -- with hundreds, even thousands, of affiliates personally recommending your products and services to their subscriber!

  • Never Lose Money On Ineffective Advertising -- Ever Again! You ONLY pay when a sale is made -- not merely for impressions or click-throughs. If an affiliate drives visitors to your site, but produces no sales, you owe them nothing. You only ever pay for real sales!

  • Boost Your Sales With Third-Party Recommendations that are far more powerful than you advertising yourself! Just like recommending a movie to a friend, when your affiliates recommend your products to their customers and subscribers, you'll look that much more credible... and you'll be as much as 400% more likely to close those sales!

  • Instantly Capitalize On Other People's High Search Engine Rankings. Get all of the exposure of the top ranking web sites -- without all of the work or expense! All you need to do is go to sites that have already secured a top listing in the search engines and get them to become your affiliates. Then your banner and text link gets all of the visibility they do!

... and much, much more -- including a number little-know "hidden" benefits (which I'll reveal the specifics of to you shortly) like how you'll be able to use what I call "the snowball effect" to grow your affiliate program at lightning speed and have literally thousands of eager salespeople breaking their backs to make YOU money!

Have you been TRICKED into thinking
"this can't work for MY business"?

Obviously, affiliate programs have the potential to dramatically increase your sales and Internet income. Yet, despite this, only a TINY fraction of Web businesses ever bother to start an affiliate program of their own.

Two BIG myths continue to hold back "regular" people with small and home-based businesses...

Myth #1:

Starting an affiliate program is HARD! (Maybe you've talked to someone who tried to build their own affiliate program using clunky, mismatched software... Or maybe you've heard stories about how it takes forever to get an affiliate program working with your site.)

   
Myth #2: Starting an affiliate program is EXPENSIVE! (You may have looked around already at some of the more popular affiliate management solutions out there only to discover that they charge thousands --and up to more than $11,500! -- just to get started.)

... Most of the affiliate management solutions I've seen out there make it sound like starting an affiliate program is rocket science!

They tell you that it will require a TON of work up-front (so that you'll hire THEIR affiliate program managers to work with you!)...

And they tell you that you'll need a buy a bunch of different "plug-ins" to make your program work (why don't they include this with their MAIN solution in the first place?)!

... This is ridiculous!

Yes! ... Starting an affiliate program can be hard if you choose the WRONG solution. Because these companies want you to spend 1,000's of extra dollars on their "extra" management features! (That's on top of the $1,000's they charge you for their "not-so-complete" solution up front.)

And yes! ... Starting an affiliate program can be expensive if you choose the WRONG solution... I've done the math and seen programs that would cost you over $11,500 in your first year alone!

But it doesn't NEED to be this way!

Use the SAME system I personally used to make $3.2 Million*
with MY OWN Affiliate Program last year alone!

Back in 1996, we started our own affiliate program (this is back in the early days of the `Net, before affiliate programs and really been "discovered" as a marketing strategy).

And we built a solution that we called "AssocTRAC" to manage our program.

We started getting questions from our customers and subscribers about how we were managing our affiliate program (they saw how quickly our business was growing, with 1,000's of affiliates linking back to our web site with recommendations for our products)... so in 1999 we released Version 1.0 of this solution to the public.

Now, 6 years later, we're still using AssocTRAC to manage OUR affiliate program of over 70,000+ affiliates who made me over $3.2 Million last year alone.* (Click here to read more about our success...)

And I'm letting 100's of our customers use this SAME system... (without all the ridiculous fees or hassles).

Because here's the bottom line: We don't NEED to sell AssocTRAC.

We've already spent over $248,000 developing AssocTRAC to run our OWN affiliate program. And we've made a pretty healthy return on that investment already, since our affiliate program has brought in more than $10,000,000 in sales to the business.*

So I'd rather see you start your own affiliate program and be successful than drain your bank account with outrageous fees.

That's why I'm going to put my money where my mouth is and let you prove to yourself that affiliate programs can be EASY to start and HIGHLY profitable by giving you my brand-new AssocTRAC 4.0 -- Affiliate Management & Ad Tracking Solution... risk-free for the next 90 days!

David has generated over $1 million in sales...

I launched my site and affiliate program March 5, 2001… generated over $3,500 in sales our first week, several dozen affiliates and 15,000 hits.

… And by June 21, 2001 I had over 700 affiliates, had successfully handled 3 check runs, and paid out thousands of dollars in commissions, all with a minimum of stress.

I now have over 4200 affiliates and have generated over $1 million in sales! All from a single desk in a corner of my basement... Thank you Mr. Rudl!*

"How You Can Build a Profitable
Affiliate Program -- in just 4 Easy Steps!"

One of the "side effects" that the expensive affiliate management solutions have had on the industry is that most people now assume that it's difficult to start an affiliate program.

Nothing could be further from the truth...

One of the things that surprises people who use AssocTRAC for the first time is that everything happens so quickly!

You can be completely set up in less than a day... Better yet, if you're only selling one or two products, you'll be up and running in just an hour or so!

In fact, ANYONE can start their own affiliate program using AssocTRAC by following these 4 super-easy steps:

Step #1:
Connect your web site to AssocTRAC. (With a few simple modifications to your shopping cart, you can have AssocTRAC integrated on your web site in as little as a few hours. It's hosted on OUR web site, so all you have to do then is log into the program and start using it -- no matter how big your business is!)
Step #2:

Customize your affiliate program. (Using a simple "point & click" interface, you can set the commissions you'll pay on each sale, set up a page to announce your program to potential affiliates, and provide the resources they'll need to make YOU the most money!)

Step #3:
Start recruiting 100's -- or 1000's! -- of affiliates. (I not only give you all the tools that you'll need to start recruiting immediately, I actually TELL you how the strategies I've used to recruit over 70,000+ affiliates!*)
Step #4:
Manage your program "on the fly." (It doesn't matter to AssocTRAC whether you have 10 affiliates or 10,000, you can always make changes or add new products with just a few clicks of your mouse!)

... and that's it!

Once you've connected AssocTRAC to your web site (so that it can track the sales and traffic your affiliates send you)... And once you've customized your affiliate program and chosen what you want to pay your affiliates...

All it takes is 1 or 2 motivated affiliates to start promoting your business for you to see an immediate increase in your sales!

Best of all, unlike a lot of "one-hit" marketing strategies that will only give your income a short, temporary boost, an affiliate program can have lasting impact on your profits.

For just a few hours effort today, you will see a lasting, positive impact on your income and profits that will continue to INCREASE as you recruit more and more affiliates!

The EASY way to recruit 100s -- or 1000's -- of affiliates
who will break their backs trying to make sales for you!

Another common reason people hesitate to start their own affiliate program is because they think recruiting affiliates is a mysterious, complicated process.

So let me clear this one up right now...

Recruiting affiliates is easy with AssocTRAC 4.0! There are basically 3 ways you can get people to sign up as your affiliates:

1.

Place an affiliate "sign-up page" on your web site. Just copy and paste the sign-up form we'll give you onto your web site. This will let everyone who visits your site know that they can make money by selling your products.

2.

Ask owners of related sites if they want to join. Get on the phone and call friends or associates who own related web sites... and e-mail owners of other web sites in your industry. Tell them about your program, then ask if they'd like to join (tell them to fill out the form on your web site -- or do it for them!)!

It's really simple... And since most web sites are looking for easy ways to increase their income, most of the people you speak with will appreciate your offer!

3. Submit to affiliate directories. There are dozens of directories that list affiliate programs that people can join, and getting listed on just one of them can lead to a flood of new affiliates overnight. (I'll show you how to do this for FREE in just a minute...)

... As you can see, recruiting affiliates doesn't have to be difficult OR scary. And you do NOT need to recruit 70,000+ affiliates like me!

I'll let you in on a little secret... All honest owners of successful affiliate programs will tell you that 3-5% of your affiliates will be responsible for up to 95% of your sales.

So the trick isn't to recruit 1,000's of affiliates right away... the trick is to recruit 5-10 really GOOD affiliates who have businesses and customers that match your own. So that when these affiliates promote YOUR products to their subscribers, they'll send you qualified buyers!

Motivate new affiliates to start promoting your business within
5 minutes of signing up... with they're still fresh and eager!

The best way to recruit eager new affiliates is to make your sign-up process quick and easy. If potential affiliates have to fill out six different forms and wait 3 days for approval (like they do with some programs), you'll risk losing them...

That's why, AssocTRAC 4.0 makes signing up new affiliates and getting them started on the right path automatically -- while they're still fresh and eager to work with you so easy by offering:

  • A simple sign-up process. This is crucial! You need to make sure that affiliates can sign up for your program with the fewest possible steps. AssocTRAC automatically generates a quick and simple affiliate sign-up form for you, and it will even let you manually add new affiliates to your program yourself!

  • Personalized 'admin' pages. AssocTRAC gives every one of your affiliates their own username and password so that they can log into their own private area any time and check on their stats. They can also easily change their passwords, e-mail addresses, etc., at any time.

  • A comprehensive affiliate "welcome package." As soon as someone signs up for your program, AssocTRAC automatically sends them an e-mail explaining to them how they can easily get started promoting your products or services. A new affiliate can literally start promoting for you 5 minutes after signing up!
  • A simple-to-use tracking program. Affiliates will want to be able to see sales results in 'real time" so that they can quickly and easily find out -- at a glance -- how many commissions they have earned from you.

  • Cookie tracking. Advanced "user-based cookies" means that affiliates are credited for people who purchase from your site on future visits. (This is a BIG selling feature for more advanced 'super-affiliates!')

  • An easy-to-understand commission structure. AssocTRAC lets you set commissions as either a dollar value (i.e., your affiliates receive $5 on the sale of a $15 dollar product) or as a percentage (i.e., your affiliates get 40% of the sales they make). And you can assign a different percentage or dollar value to every product you sell -- unlike many programs that force you to decide on one commission for all of your products!

Manage 10,000 affiliates as easily 1 affiliate.

Once you've recruited all those affiliates, the last think you want is to suddenly find yourself bogged down with the job of taking care of them!

Sure, having to answer the odd question is no big deal when you only have a few dozen affiliates -- but what happens when you have thousands of affiliates?

Since AssocTRAC is the same software I use to manage my own affiliate program, I've designed it to be completely automated AND completely scalable.

So it doesn't matter to AssocTRAC whether you
have 10,000 affiliates... or just 10!

... AssocTRAC has been built to automatically manage an unlimited number of different businesses and affiliates, so you don't need to spend your whole day tracking customers and who referred them.

It's all done for you so there's...

  • No paperwork,
  • No manual calculations,
  • No order tracking,
  • No updating affiliates' information,
  • No finding passwords for affiliates,
  • And no writing checks.

... Your affiliates sign up on a simple web form, and their information is automatically entered into your database.

There literally is no limit to how quickly your business can grow!

Of course, once your affiliate program DOES start to grow, you may be worried that you'll suddenly find yourself answering an endless stream of calls and e-mails from their affiliates.

(It's only natural that these people are going to want to check up their sales, find out how much they've earned every day, change their passwords, and so on, right?)

Well, you can relax... Because we've designed AssocTRAC so that affiliates can *easily* get answers -- all by themselves -- to their most common questions like...

  • The number of visitors they have sent to your site.
  • How many sales they have referred.
  • How many sales their sub-affiliates have made.
  • Which products they are selling the most of.
  • How much commission they have earned from direct sales.
  • How much commission they have earned from sub-affiliate sales.
  • How much total money they have earned.
  • How many sub-affiliates they have recruited.

... Your affiliates can get ALL of this information through their very own, private 'admin' area (AssocTRAC automatically gives them a private username & password for this area when a new affiliate signs up).

We made using AssocTRAC as EASY as possible -- because we want our 70,000+ affiliates to stay focused on promoting the business... not sending us e-mails and questions ;-)

AssocTRAC will make sure you're not wasting time on repetitive chores -- it frees up your time so you can focus on recruiting NEW affiliates and working with current affiliates to increase your sales. It makes sense, right?

affiliate program management software

This is what your affiliates will see when they sign in to their account. They can view detailed reports on how many sales they have made, how many visitors they have sent to your site, and how many comissions they have earned.

affiliate program software

This is the page your affiliates will use to change their personal settings, including password and e-mail address. Since AssocTRAC lets your affiliates manage these settings on their own, it means YOU don't need to worry about these boring administrative chores!

Please note: The administration page that your affiliate will have access to is completely separate from the area YOU access to manage your affiliate program. Your affiliates will -- of course -- only be able to see their own information, whereas you have complete access to ALL affiliate information.

"Point & click to easily customize EVERY
aspect of your program... in just minutes!"

Unlike many of the "other" affiliate management solutions out there that handcuff your business by placing strict limits on what you can and can't do, AssocTRAC gives you the flexibility to customize EVERY aspect of your affiliate program.

Within minutes of signing up, I send you a username and password that you can use to "login" to AssocTRAC... so right away you can:

  • Decide WHAT commissions you'll be paying your affiliates. AssocTRAC lets you choose how much commission you'll pay out on a "per product" basis (unlike competitors who make you charge the SAME commission on ALL your products!

  • Decide HOW you'll pay commissions. You can set the commission for each product as either a percentage of the retail price or as a dollar amount. (For example, will you pay your affiliates 30% or $30? With AssocTRAC, it's your choice!)

  • Decide WHEN you'll pay commissions. You can pay your affiliates weekly, monthly, every quarter... whenever you want! Unlike most other programs, AssocTRAC give you complete control over when your affiliates get paid.

  • Decide WHERE your affiliates will sign up. Most affiliate management programs whisk new affiliates away from your site as soon as they've decided no join, which will scare a lot of people away! AssocTRAC let's you simply "copy and paste" as affiliate sign-up form onto your site, so that new affiliates never need to leave your site!

  • Decide HOW your affiliates will promote your product. AssocTRAC gives you detailed instructions on how to write effective promotions that your affiliates can use to promote your products, including text links, banner ads, e-zine sponsorships, product reviews, and much more!

Never waste time on 'dirty work' --
using powerful automation capabilities!

AssocTRAC makes YOUR job (as the "boss" of your affiliates) extremely simple.

You'll have a TON of information at your fingertips, so you can focus on increasing the profits from your affiliate program instead of messing around with a bunch of boring secretarial work.

For example, with AssocTRAC 4.0 you can:

  • Automatically tally monthly sales for each affiliate. You'll know at a glance who your BEST affiliates are and the commissions they’ve earned.

  • Pay your affiliates automatically. With AssocTRAC, you can easily "import" all of your affiliate payment details into accounting software like Quickbooks -- so you can print checks automatically -- saving you days of work each month, and eliminating human error.

  • Send custom, personalized e-mail messages. AssocTRAC automatically merges your affiliate's name into messages you send them, as well as into commission notification e-mails, new product announcements, etc.

  • Easily target different groups of affiliates. Instantly send a personalized message to all affiliates who have sold a certain product, or who signed up for your program during a specified time, or to all your affiliates at once!

  • Track EVERY order -- no matter where it came from. Track orders that come through your fax, 800 number, and mailbox -- so you will always know who referred a sale. And it’s a snap to assign them credit manually.

  • Send instant purchase notification. Send a detailed breakdown of every order to you, the affiliate who generated the sale, AND the affiliate who referred the affiliate who generated the sale. (This builds great confidence with your affiliates!)

  • Suspend accounts with the push of a button. Never worry about affiliates abusing your service, since YOU always have the power to instantly disable, suspend, delete, edit, accept or reject any affiliate account.

affiliate program

As the manager of your own affiliate program, here's what your 'control panel' looks like. You have complete control over every single aspect of your affiliate program, and can change any of your settings at any time!

Here's PROOF that set-up is a breeze:

Listen: Getting AssocTRAC set up might sound like a lot of work, but the truth is that most people will be able to get the "technical stuff" looked after in less than a day (or even a few hours) and can start recruiting affiliates and seeing sales in almost no time!

Want specific proof? Let me put your biggest fears to rest right now...

  • AssocTRAC can be integrated with most online ordering systems. From single-page order forms (one or two items) to complex multi-stage shopping carts with hundreds or thousands of items, AssocTRAC is easily implemented with just about all of them. (If you have any concerns, click here to fill out a form for our technical team to review and let you know if AssocTRAC will work with your site.)

  • AssocTRAC adds new products to your affiliate program -- automatically! Once AssocTRAC is integrated with your site, it can automatically detect new products in your shopping cart and add them to your AssocTRAC database of products. (In other words, you only need to add new products to your shopping cart -- after the first sale of a new product, it will automatically be added to AssocTRAC. Less work for you!)

  • AssocTRAC is easy to set up. You'll get a comprehensive integration manual that walks you through every step of getting you up and running. In addition, we have a highly-trained staff of online support agents waiting to chat with you 5 days a week so that we can help you over any hurdles.

  • AssocTRAC can be installed for you. If you're not the type who enjoys the "technical side" of your online business, just let us know! We can arrange to have one of our integration specialists work with you to get AssocTRAC seamlessly integrated with your site. (Unlike other programs that charge you $3,500 or more to get set up, they will do it all for a flat rate of $97. Click here for more info...)

... Once you're set up, that's it!

Since AssocTRAC is hosted on our servers and we take care of all the updates and upgrades 'behind the scenes,' so you never have to worry about the set-up process again.

And even though other affiliate management systems charge an arm and a leg for integration (some charge a $3500 set-up fee!) and then make it next to impossible to get their programs working properly with YOUR site, we've made the entire process as simple as possible. Most people can do it themselves in about a day!

But like I said, if you'd simply rather NOT do the integration yourself, let me know and I'll have one of my AssocTRAC implementation gurus set everything up for you for a reasonable flat rate of $97 -- not $3,500!

AssocTRAC is the ONLY system he endorses...

"I started developing affiliate software for Declan Dunn (the affiliate program "guru") two years ago when there was no other solution available. We spent over $45,000 to create a system that had all of the features we wanted.

If I were to do it all over again today I would NOT develop from scratch. Instead, I would buy AssocTRAC. It is the ONLY off-the-shelf, low-cost system that I endorse. With its powerful administrative and reporting functions, ease of use, and its look and feel AssocTRAC is a step above any other tracking software out there."

- Patrick Anderson

How you can "snowball" your profits with a two-tier system!

Have you ever heard of something called the "snowball effect?"

This is when something starts small (like a snowball that you roll off the top of a hill) and becomes HUGE as a result of its own momentum (that snowball will become an enormous boulder of snow by the time it reaches the bottom of the hill!)

Our own affiliate program was built by the "snowball effect." I don't think we've ever revealed this publicly before, but we actually only ever recruited about 100 (yes, one hundred) affiliates to our program! After that, we developed a 'two-tier' affiliate program, and the snowball effect took over from there!

Easy example of AssocTRAC's Two-Tier program:

Suppose your site sells model cars for $100 each, and you offer your affiliate (let's call him Joe) a $20 commission on each sale he refers.

That means that Joe gets $20 and you get $80 every time he makes a sale. Simple enough, right?

Well, with AssocTRAC, you can ALSO encourage Joe to tell his customers, subscribers, friends, family, etc. about the easy money he is making just by sending traffic to your model car web site.

Joe will be motivated to tell his friend Susan about it because you'll be offering him a small percentage (say 5%) of every sale that Susan refers, so the payout on a sale would look like this:

Sale Price:
$100
Susan's commission:
$20
Joe's commission:
$5
Your net revenue:
$75

Now Susan's happy (she just made $20 for not much work), Joe's REALLY happy (he made $5 for absolutely no work), and you're absolutely ecstatic (because you've got hundreds of affiliates and 'sub-affiliates' working day and night to make your sales FOR you!)


...This kind of two-tiered program will allow you to use the power of exponential growth to build your affiliate program faster than you could ever imagine!

Here's an example... Suppose you were able to recruit 50 affiliates a month on your own. This would mean that after one year, you'd have 600 affiliates (50 affiliates per month X 12 months).

Not bad, but take a look what a two-tier program can do... The first month, you could recruit 50 affiliates. You could then tell them that they can make even more money by recruiting affiliates into your program!

This will really motivate some of them, so let's suppose that 5 of those 50 affiliates each recruit ten NEW affiliates... Thanks to the power of the 'snowball effect,' here's what happens:

Month 1:
50 affiliates
Month 2:
100 affiliates
Month 3:
200 affiliates
Month 4:
400 affiliates
Month 5:
800 affiliates
Month 6:
1600 affiliates

... and so on! Thanks to your two-tier program, you've now got more than DOUBLE the number of affiliates you would have recruited in an entire year doing it with a single-tier system!

AssocTRAC makes setting up a 'two-tiered' program a breeze. In fact, there's virtually no extra work involved in harnessing this powerful "snowball effect" for your business.

All you have to do is tell AssocTRAC how much you want to pay your second-tier affiliates (i.e., how much you want to pay 'Joe' whenever 'Susan' makes a sale), and you're done. It literally takes less than one minute.

And, unlike some other affiliate management systems, AssocTRAC's two-tiered capabilities are built right into the program.

There's NO expensive "plug-in" to purchase, nor is there any need to upgrade to a costlier version of AssocTRAC -- because there isn't one! It's all ready to go as soon as you log into AssocTRAC the very first time!

"How to put more money in your pocket
... by earning LESS per sale!"

Wondering why you'd want to pay out sub-affiliate commissions when you could just go out and recruit all your affiliates yourself using a single tiered program?

It's the same reason why big companies hire salespeople! Sure, you might not earn as much on each sale as you would if you made every single sale yourself, but you'll be able to make far MORE sales that you ever would if you hadn't hired anyone!

And all those extra sales can add up to WAY more money in your pocket than you'd ever be able to make doing it all yourself!

I honestly believe that if we hadn't started a two-tiered affiliate program 6 years ago, we would never have gotten to where we are today, and I also know that a two-tiered program is absolutely critical to the success of your online business too, because even though everyone involved makes money, YOU'RE the one who ultimately benefits because you can get...

  • An immediate income boost thanks to increased sales.

  • A larger customer base to which you can send follow-up offers and further increase your income by capitalizing on the "lifetime value" of the customer referred by your affiliates.

  • An even BIGGER army of affiliates who will now not only sell your products, but also promote your affiliate program to their customer and subscriber base.

  • The power to recruit 'super-affiliates.' The people who will make you the most money will be your 'super-affiliates.' These are people who make their living from affiliate programs, and -- believe me! -- they won't go NEAR your program unless it has two tiers!

I'll be frank with you: A two-tier system is so critical to the success of your affiliate program that it isn't REALLY worth starting an affiliate program at all if you're not going to use one. But be careful! Some affiliate management programs will try to hold you hostage in exchange for this capability...

"Never allow yourself to be held hostage
by your affiliate program!"

You wouldn't PAY someone to steal your search engine rankings, would you?

This question is no joke! Just about every affiliate management solution out there not only asks you for an exorbitant amount of money to use their software, they then demand that you send your traffic to them!

Most affiliate management programs will force you to track all of your sales through THEIR site. They'll insist that all of the links you give to YOUR affiliates to track YOUR sales look something like this:

www.JoeAffiliateProgram.com/yoursite/t.cgi?2302384

On the other hand, links you set up through AssocTRAC will always be send directly to YOUR site, not ours. Your affiliate links will look like this:

www.YourSite.com/t.cgi?983247

Now, for those of you who are asking yourselves, "So what's the big deal if my links are tracked through their site?" I want you to pay close attention: When you set up your links to track through someone else's site...

  • You become their prisoner! (What happens if you decide you want to switch services? You have to try convincing all your affiliates to change all the affiliate links that they've posted all over the 'Net for you. This is a pain, and a lot of them won't bother...)

  • You may NEVER know who your affiliates are! (Many affiliate management programs actually go to great lengths to hide the names and contact information of your affiliates from you so that you can NEVER get in touch with them if you decide to switch programs...)

  • Your affiliate program could disappear overnight! (How well do you REALLY know your affiliate management program? Are they making money? Do they have enough customers to support their service? Or might they go out of business in the middle of the night, sending all your potential customers to a blank page when they go looking to buy your products?)

  • You're KILLING your search engine rankings! ("Link popularity" is one of the most important ways that search engines decide who gets ranked above who. The more sites that have links pointing to you, the higher your site can be ranked in the search engines.

... When you use AssocTRAC, you never need worry about any of this!

Traffic is sent directly to your site, so that you always remain in complete control of your own business.

And unlike many other programs, AssocTRAC doesn't try to hide your affiliates from you! You can always see:

  • The names of ALL your affiliates.
  • The e-mail addresses of ALL your affiliates.
  • The phone numbers of ALL your affiliates.
  • The postal addresses of ALL your affiliates.

... and so on! In fact, you can even export all of this information to your own computer so that you're always free to move your affiliate program over to another system at any time you choose.

Their "Dirty Little Secret" Exposed!

Here's something that my competitors REALLY don't want you to know:

One of the big reasons that they insist you link your traffic through their URL is because this dramatically increases their "link popularity," which is an important factor in how highly a site is ranked in the search engines.

Since everyone wants to be ranked highly at sites like Google and Yahoo!, these companies thought a good way to increase their link popularity would be to force you to send traffic that was rightfully YOURS to them. They are the ones capitalizing on the popularity of your affiliate program!

Some affiliate tracking programs will -- for a very hefty (around $1000) fee -- let you drive affiliate traffic through a domain name similar to your own (which THEY register and control), but keep in mind that this does absolutely NOTHING for your search engine rankings.

Needless to say, *we* would never try to get away with this. With AssocTRAC, all of your affiliates' links point to YOUR web site -- not ours! Period.

The #1 most powerful way to quickly and accurately test
your sales copy and ads -- with ZERO risk or expense!

One of the biggest "hidden" benefits of using AssocTRAC -- and one that many of the people who use it say they could NEVER live without -- is the ability to test and track all your salescopy, ads, pay-per-click listings, etc. for FREE!

For example, suppose you've decided to test two different headlines at your web site... You'd want to know (with 100% certainty) which headline is converting more of your visitors into paying customers, wouldn't you?

Of course you would! And AssocTRAC lets you know exactly how many visitors arrived at your site during a given time, as well as how many sales were made! At the push of a button, you'll know exactly:

  • How many visitors "clicked through" your ad
  • How much traffic a particular sales page received
  • How many visitors made a purchase
  • What the 'visitor-to-sale' ratio is for EVERY ad you test

... so with AssocTRAC, you'll always know which advertising is the most profitable!

For example, AssocTRAC might tell you that:

Headline #1: Had a 'Visitor to Sales' ratio of 1 in 17
Headline #2: Had a 'Visitor to Sales' ratio of 1 in 34

Armed with this information, you now know for sure that you'll be making a lot more money with Headline #1! Without AssocTRAC, you'd be forced to guess which headline was pulling in more sales, and there's a good chance you might choose incorrectly, which (in this case) would instantly cut your sales in half!

Remember: YOU are in control!

What's one thing that most entrepreneurs have in common?

They like to be "at the helm" of their business, and they DON'T like the idea of someone else determining how successful they will be!

Unfortunately, almost every affiliate management solution out there asks you to "give up" control of your affiliate program and your business by letting THEM collect all your traffic, and by letting THEM 'own' your affiliates.

Not AssocTRAC! The whole reason why I spent $248,000 building this program in the first place was so that I could remain in complete control of my own business, and I am offering nothing less to my own customers and subscribers.

When you use AssocTRAC:

  • You are in control of your affiliate links. (The links your affiliates use to promote your products always point to *your* URL, not ours! This means that *your* site enjoys the extra traffic and that all those hard-earned link are pointing to *your* site!)

  • You are in control of your database. (You can see the name, e-mail address, phone number, mailing address, etc., for every single one of your affiliates at any time. You can even export this information to your own computer, print it out, whatever!)

  • You are in control of your future. (If you ever decide that AssocTRAC isn't fitting your needs, you are free to move your entire affiliate program off of the system. We make it easy and hassle free, and since *you* own your affiliates, we can't stop you!)

Expert support ALWAYS available!

Even though AssocTRAC is by far the easiest affiliate management solution available, we know that you'll have questions. And that's why we're committed to providing an outstanding level of help and support to everyone who chooses AssocTRAC for their business.

Since we've personally been using AssocTRAC for over 5 years to manage our own affiliate program (currently 70,000+ members strong) -- and helped 100's of people just like you get it set up and working for THEIR businesses -- I'm confident we'll be able to answer any questions you may have!

  • A comprehensive implementation guide. Getting started is a MAJOR headache with many other affiliate management programs, but AssocTRAC makes the process simple and headache-free! A step-by-step walkthrough will have your affiliate program up and running in about a day!

“I did not have the millions of dollars that my competition did to build a tracking system… but AssocTRAC has allowed us to run a very strong associates program… Revenues were $250,000 last year for my little company!*

And it appears that we'll be doing double this or more this year… with AssocTRAC and the 3,000+ active affiliate base we've built.”

Free advice that will save you a fortune!

There is something I want to warn you about...

I've spent a lot of time talking about how some affiliate management solutions will charge you outrageous upfront prices... plus 100's of dollars in ongoing monthly fees that can add up to $11,500+ per year!

But I also want to warn you about about certain programs that try to take advantage of small businesses by luring you into their solution with a low up-front cost ($49 or so), and then charging you a "small percentage" on every sale you make.

This might sound reasonable... but do NOT fall for this!

These programs will drastically cut into your profits and they will have a severe impact on the success of your program by limiting how much you can afford to pay your affiliates!

This is how it works...

Suppose you sell a product for $30 and you offer affiliates a $12 commission for every sale they refer to you.

Many affiliate management solutions will ALSO charge you 30% of your "payout rate" on top of that $12! This means that your costs per sale now break down like this:

Sale price: $30
Affiliate commission: $12 (40% of the $30 Sale Price)
"Transaction fee" $3.60 (30% of $12) *This is where they get you!*

This is outrageous! While that $3.60 you pay in "transaction fees" may not SEEM like a lot of money, think of how quickly it would add up...

Suppose you sold 10 products per day (for a total of $36 in daily "transaction fees").

This means that you'll be giving $13,140 to your affiliate program provider every year -- just for the privilege of using them!

Keep in mind that this money comes straight out of your profits and you NEVER get to touch it... The affiliate program provider snatches it out of your account before they cut you a check!

Of course, there are other systems out there that DON'T charge you "transaction fees," but they have other ways of luring you in with false hopes or pricing themselves out of the realm of most online entrepreneurs, including:

  • Bare-bones "lite" versions. You buy into their program for "only" $1000, soon to discover that you need to buy a bunch of "add-ons" or "plug-ins" (which range in price from $99 to $699 per month) to make your affiliate program work properly.

  • Big affiliate pools. They tell you that they have thousands of affiliates in their database just waiting to promote your products. Of course, only a tiny fraction of these people will ever promote YOUR product, as they are constantly bombarded with notifications of new affiliate programs. You'll still need to actively recruit affiliates if you want to be successful.

  • Maintenance fees. Who knows what these fees are really for... As if most of these companies aren't charging you enough, they have to tack on an extra $250 or so a year to "maintain" your account!

... and so on! After everything's said and done, you'll have spent $2,000... $5,000... as much as $12,000 just to get your affiliate program up and running.

If you ask me, it takes a pretty big leap of faith to spend that kind of money just to launch an affiliate program (not to mention a pretty high ceiling on your credit card!) And frankly, I simply don't think it's right to ask struggling entrepreneurs to come up with this kind of money!

Our success means you get a steal!

Here's the bottom line: Like I said before, we don't NEED to sell AssocTRAC.

We've already spent the money (over $248,000) developing AssocTRAC to run our own affiliate program. And we've made a pretty healthy return on that investment already, since our affiliate program has brought in more than $10,000,000 in sales to the business.

I make this product available to my customers because I honestly believe that affiliate programs are the best way to make money online, and because I think that the other affiliate management programs out there are too complicated, too unreliable, and too expensive!

That's why I'm committed to offering AssocTRAC for just $677 or 4 payments of $169.25. The price hasn't changed much since we started offering it for sale back in 1999 because -- like I've said -- we're not all that concerned about making money off of this program. We want to make it available to you so that YOU succeed.

Remember, all you pay is the one time investment of $677 or 4 payments of $169.25 plus a $47 per month hosting fee which will give you all the flexibility and functionality you'll ever need to run every aspect of your affiliate program without the need to spend a fortune on costly upgrade or exorbitant commission fees.

A note about hosting fees: Other programs see hosting fees as just another way to pad their own profits by taking money out of your wallet. (I mean, how could it REALLY cost $350 a MONTH -- $4200 a year! -- to host an affiliate program!)

And while many other affiliate tracking programs will charge you between $100 and $350+ per month to host your affiliate program on their servers, we charge only $47 (which is just enough to cover our costs.)

Considering all the important advantages of having your affiliate program hosted on our servers (which has given us and 70,000+ affiliates reliable, uninterrupted service every day for over 5 years), and considering that we're hosting AssocTRAC on over $200,000 worth of hardware, you'd better believe that $47 a month is a heck of a deal!
