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?

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.

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.

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."

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

AssocTRAC gets the most out of it!
Bill
now has over 3,000+ affiliates... “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!
