In resonse to Smokeys post 26 1 thru 4:
1. Yes it depends how you look at it. I am a program owner and I know of all the tricks. Honest revshare programs payout percentage is based on what the membership pays. ( the gross) All other ways are deceitful. Based on your logic, if it was based on (profit) then they should also deduct for all the expenses a sponsor has, not just processing fees. ie: hosting, content, feeds, etc etc..
Strike 1
2. Each member is not going to upsell. 1:100 , maybe 1:50 if your lucky. Do the math.
Strike 2
3. Wrong, simply just look inside any quality revshare sponsors site, you won't find any upsells. They don't want to lose their customers either. Ask Steve Jones (Lightspeed) if he upsells other peoples sites. Answer is NO!
Strike 3
4. You are confused on this one. You are talking from the Program owners POV. I said quote: I would never send revshare joins to a site with upsells in the members area. This is speaking from and for an affiliates POV. Why would an affiliate send joins to a shitty revshare site with upsells? That's just stupid.
Strike 4
Smokey, I notice you like to play devils advocate a lot on here. You may fool some people because you also post lots of neat shit and know how to sway the sheep, but in this instance you are wrong, not making sense and chose the wrong topic and the wrong person to play it with. I have been running my revshare programs too long and doing it honestly the right way from day one.
This thread is all about educating people that really don't know wtf is going on and informing them. Please don't fuck it up.
Cheers,
BV
