You know what I haven't figured out? Why don't most people (owners/reps/whoever) touch base with affiliates that send traffic? It's not that hard to figure out where your sales are coming from especially with so many programs using nats. It's not tough to say If an affiliate sends you 20-30 sales in a month and then backs off, you should be asking why. As an affiliate manager, that's your job.
I think that's where
Metal Cash really steps up to the plate. They've messaged me to ask when, why, how, and so on. That's what I call true professionalism.
