Re: Shitty Assed Sponsors
Both sides gotta do their thing.
As an affiliate your job is always to garner traffic. There's lots of ways to do it and HOW you do it will influence your conversions. So also part of your job needs to be to understand your traffic and how to filter it to a sponsor that is offering something that surfer might be interested in. If you've done that, they need to close the deal. If they cant, you need to send your traffic elsewhere.
As a sponsor, your job is to separate the surfer from his wallet, you're the closer. On the sponsor side, lots of things influence it as well....tour quality and psychology, number of samples, price point, trials or no trials. The sponsor must find the right balance of getting the surfer to signup within Visa's limitations and still make enough profit to share some with the affiliate.
I dont know of ANYTHING that converts worth a crap totally blind these days. Best tour in the world with a free signup still needs some minimal filtering in order for the traffic to be profitable.
