So... You're a content provider with a novel method of marketing your product.

Content is worth something, but probably not as much as you'd like it to be.

Initial sales can be created with almost any decent content. Your edge is in producing the kind of excellent quality content on a continuous basis that generates high recurring.

I'd say the affil manager should get most of the money from initial sales, because initial sales is almost completely due to his work and little to do with your content.

You pick up 50% of proceeds from rebills only. That way you're getting paid for what you're providing (recurring sales due to excellent content) and the affil manager is getting paid for what he does (initial sales, plus share of recurring).

I'd make affil manager pay bandwidth from his share, that gives him free hand in marketing.

The good news is that if you make truly great content, and you get a good webmaster to manage the affil proggy, you'll still make more money than most content providers are making today.
