Sensation Designs has some products that have become very successful. I feel they could be considerably more successful with an affiliate program.

I am very prepared to set up an affiliate system, however, I want to know who would be interested. This would be a big waste of time and effort to find out no one would be interested, so consider this a prelimnary survey

One thing I think which is rather important is that all transaction will be handled manually, so if an affiliate sends a buyer, it will not be updated immediately. Also, payments are through PayPal, and affiliates will be paid once a month through PayPal after generating a certain minimum (maybe $50 or something)

So, please let me know if you are interested, and what 'specs' you would agree upon... such as minimum amount before being paid, how much % per sale, etc.

Should this be put in place, affiliates will have a control panel where they can view the stats.

Thanks, and feel free to offer any suggestions!

Hi there,

Well, since things are manual, you may have to be very selective in how choose your affiliates. I think web designers would the be most interested in joining such an affiliate system.

Why would I have to be very selective in choosing affiliates?

[Luthfur_R]

Well, it really depends. If you end up being flooded by a lot of affiliates, your manual system could break down. At that point your choices would be to either kick out a few of them or shift to a more automated system.

Well, maybe I was misleading when I said manual... but really all I do is "confirm" the purchase.. then I'd just fill in the details and then have it insert it all into DB and update info/etc.
