Rant- Affiliate Programs with no creative
Mar 20, 2008 Affiliate Rant
Let me take a moment to vent.
I just found a product that I am pretty psyched to promote to my audience here… I take their tour and I am impressed, I am happy to see that they offer an affiliate marketing program. I sign up for the affiliate program. I get approved a few mintes later. Awesome so far right?
I thought so.
I log in to pick up some link code for my site… thought I might throw them a banner and a write up to see if I could stimulate some business. I get logged and there are literally no creatives other than their default text link.
ARGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH
Okay…. here is the deal. If you have a badass product, launching an affiliate program is a great idea. But for the love of Pete (whoever that is)
MAKE SURE YOUR AFFILIATE PROGRAM IS POPULATED BEFORE YOU LINK TO THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM ON YOUR SITE!!!
That is all… you may go…. I feel better now.
My invoice for affiliate consulting is in the mail.
