I Just Paid a Man 3690 Just For the Pleasure of Being His Affiliate - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

toolohen · 07-14-2007, 02:36 AM

Let me explain. I have earned from this man and his affiliate program, I have earned $2310 from him in commissions and from my efforts he has earned a NET sales earnings of $3690 (I say those are his NET sales earnings because it is what he got to keep in pure profits AFTER he paid out my commission earnings) In fact, I have earned him, through my efforts, $6000 in GROSS sales.

So now just for the pleasure of being his affiliate, I technically paid him $3690.

I am a $3690 as an affiliate to him.

Cry for me.

WTF are you talking about?

I think he is bitching about the fact that the merchant is making more money than him even though he is promoting the offer for him. Who gives a fuck, you make your money without the need for a product. And you didn't pay him shit the customers did.

That "man" also spent a ton of money doing market research, inventory headaches, web development, affiliate program setup, product creation etc etc. to get to this point.

If you want to do all that, then you can keep the $6000 for your self from your own business.

not to mention customer service

That isnt a bad percentage really. You could have sold $6000 for Walmart and made dinner money for 2.

Nothing from nothing leaves nothing. So if you'd like to have 100% of the pie, you will need to develop or otherwise obtain your own products. And then you will need to promote and sell them. And eventually you would develop or use an established affiliate program and then you would get the pleasure of paying out a percentage of the pie to someone else. Get it?

And then there would be a thread on WF titled: "I just paid a man $2310 just for the pleasure of being my affiliate"

Wow. You are a fucking idiot. Learn how the system works, and learn your place in the food chain.

That is the problem with dogs who don't know how to wail his tail to the feeding hands and in return thinking to make a bite. That is ashame.
If you are good enough, you can always out on your own to sell your own product / service, not just being an affiliate.

This is a worseless noob thread.

Which is by far the worst part of selling your own products IMO.
