Good morning Dave, Ken and anyone else reading.
Number one I want to thank you for getting this discussion going as I feel it is very important especially after yesterdays comments on a wall status.
I have to be honest and say that this is a very complicated affiliate program that I feel would be difficult for people to promote properly and well.
I love the fact that there are so many features and ways people can be rewarded by being an affiliate, but it would be very hard to be able to talk about all the features etc to the everyday person.
By design I feel that any affiliate program has to think of the people who are promoting by giving simple and easy language ( with additional training involved to show people all the features and then help them learn how to engage with others to talk with some authority about this program)
For me and this is me reading everything over and over again and still getting a bit lost in those details, I would love it to be said something like
Adlandpro ...a free online classified business with the added bonus of an active social network where you can make money a variety of ways - learn more about this program ....[then rewrite the affiliate program so that it is easy to understand, using point form for the benefits always with the mind that you want people to upgrade]
The point to the whole exercise is to get people to PAY and upgrade.
I am speaking my thoughts here and I am sure they seem random, I guess what I am trying to say is that for people to promote something, they need a good sound understanding and then make life easier for them!
I have also noted and not for the first time..people don't always want the banners etc. they want just an affiliate link and this should be at the top of the tools ( not resources) so that people can talk as they will ( keeping in mind the rules)
Not sure I have helped, but these are my thoughts at this point
Diane
