JOINING OUR AFFILIATE SALES
PROGRAM |
| What is an affiliate program? |
| An affiliate program allows you to place links to our products on your Web
site. By placing these links, visitors to your site have the opportunity
to buy products. If a product is purchased through your Web site, we pay
you a commission for each sale. |
| What is a "Two Tier" affiliate program? |
| In a two tier affiliate program you are allowed to sign up affiliates
"under you" and get a 10% commission on sales made by their
referrals. You sign them up by having a place on your website for
them to sign up or by recruiting them with email, newsletters, e-zines,
etc. |
| Can a Web site outside the
United States be an affiliate? |
|
Yes. But it will depend in which country you are operating. We need
to have you contact us by email to discuss your site and situation before
we make a decision on accepting you as an Affiliate. Also customers that
buy from our site must pay in U.S. dollars. All commission payment checks
to affiliates are in U.S. dollars.
|
| I operate more than one Web
site. Can I still be an affiliate? |
| Yes. You can have multiple sites as an affiliate. You can have one
affiliate account with us that will include all of your sites. You can
track the progress of each of your sites separately and be paid with only
one commission check. |
| How do I sign up? |
| First, you must read and accept our Affiliate Agreement. Then, you
complete our online application form. After your application is submitted,
we will contact you by email to let you know if you've been accepted as an
affiliate, and we will provide you with a complete getting started
package. |
| How does the program work? |
| An affiliate program allows you to make money by referring customers to
our Web site. You do this by placing links on your site. Every time you
refer a customer to us and that customer makes a purchase, you earn a
commission. In every month that you have earned at least $15, we send you
a check for a percentage of the sales you referred to our site. It's that
easy! |
| Is my Web site eligible to
become an affiliate? |
|
Most sites will qualify to participate in the program. Anyone may submit
an application, but we do reserve the right to refuse membership to a site
or revoke a site's membership at any time if we deem that it contains
objectionable material.
|
|
What are my
responsibilities an as affiliate? |
|
The only thing you are responsible for is connecting the links from your
site to ours using the special URL code that we send you and giving us
your best efforts at pre-selling or recommending our line of Etch-O-Matic
Kits and Products. We handle everything else.
|
| What are your responsibilities? |
| We will provide you with the tools and support you need to maximize sales
through your site. We also handle orders, shipping, and billing for all
customers you refer to us. |
| I don't have a Web site. Can I
still apply? |
| Yes, You may become an Affiliate/Dealer and buy and sell Etch-O-Matic
Products for your own account from our regular Wholesale Price List. You can then
re-sell the items
or use them in your own business in any way you wish. We will even
help you with Sales Literature and sales ideas. |
| What if I operate more than one
Web site? |
| You can have multiple sites under one affiliate account. You can create
links specifically for each site and generate separate reports for each
site. You will receive one commission check for all sites. |
|
How do I change my account
information?
|
| Once you have been accepted as an affiliate, you will be given access to
our tracking system and you can track your account and those of your
Sub-Affiliates in "Real Time". You will get complete info on
this in your starting email package. |
| Will becoming an affiliate
increase traffic to my site? |
| Our affiliate program is a revenue-sharing program. It is not designed to
help you increase traffic to your site; however, it enhances your site
with content, so your user return rate may be higher. |
