Don't try to fools me Marc,

"For example, if you retain your members for 1.5 months @ $39.95 with a $2.95 trial. That is an avg value per customer of $62.87"

The problem is that in reality, only one out of 3-4 surfers stay 1.5 months @ $39.95 with a $2.95 trial. NOT all of them. If it was the case, WOW, I would make the BANK on reccuring and retire in 6 months.

I'm bringing general stats and use my brain and some logic. There's NO way a sponsor can pay 35$ for every single trial. I might believe it for about 2-3 sponsors I checked myself, their content, quality, exlusive stuff, etc, and I can tell you ARS is far away from them. You don't have 66 sites Marc, you have 66 tours with low content inside each site. If you didn't notice yet, the surfer does. Anyway your logic is simply irrealistic. The traffic quality is going down every day, if you aren't shaving now, you'll have to shave in future to pay $35 per signup. But seriously, any big 'nobody' promoter knows you are already doing it.

The best example was when I switched between 5 accounts and the ratios jumped and dropped in matter of secondes. Anyway, I'm a nobody, you aren't going to shave big boys, because you're a smart guy.
