    How Many Joins/Day Does it Take to be Considered a Whale?

    As the title says, how many joins per day does it take for a webmaster to be considered a whale for your program? Just curious on everyone's thought on this.

            looking at the bangbrosonline area "(PPS only - send over 210 in a pay period)"

            normal period = 15 days

            14 sales a day.


            I think most would classify around 15+ consistently a whale

              Seriously though, I will be needing WHALES for my new mainstream WHALE of a program for educational products.

                        15 a day puts you in the top 10% of every sponsor I've ever seen stats on in terms of being an affiliate.

                        For example, at TCG, doing 15 signups a day will have you ranked around 30-35 out of thier entire list of affiliates who have sent at least one signup in their time with TCG.

                        For a paysite, I would think being a whale would mean much higher numbers, something on the order of 50-100+ signups per day.

                          If you push 100+ signups a day to all the programs your promoting (paid signups, no free aff profiles for example) I consider you to be a whale for sure
                          but a lot of affprograms are getting a lot nicer once you send them 10-15 sales a day

                              Anyone that sends 210 in a pay period with us, gets bumped up to 40/join for all the joins. Lots of people hit that and are happy.

                              Basically make an extra 1000, the second you go from join 209 to join 210.

                                  with the drop in mail for most programs id say anyone over 10 a day is a whale now

                                  of course there are still guys pushing tons of joins but it is usually spread across like 20 sponsors

                                    Had a couple times over the past few months where I've missed a tier like that by one or two signups...SERENITY NOW....

                                      I guess I would say in the 10-20 ranges (consistant tho)

                                        I'd be pissed hitting 209. Might have to bust out the CC for that one

                                          I'd be salty if it ended when I was at 209

                                            Do you mean to a single site/program or to all programs combined having a total of 50-100? I was referring to a single program in my original question.

You're a dime a dozen with TCG for example even at 70+ weekly, while a few companies treat you like whales even if you're just getting started with them. MrSkin for example, Derek is great. Xpays is another example. I'd get email from Evan all the time.

                                                                          I considered myself a whale.

                                                                          Now that I own a program, I look at other affiliates and notice people like myself are very rare. I love the affiliates that push 20+ sales per day each and consider them all whales now.

If you can bring over 350+ (approx. 24 signups a day) on average, that bumps you up higher. Anyone doing 350 per period is a VIP with us. If any of you are personally doing 10+ daily sales consistantly with one program (could be one site or a combination of sites), consider yourselves whales and more.

                                                                                We send several programs over 100 sales a period and get treated the same as affiliates who send 1 sale a period.

                                                                                Special treatment is of course nice but, at the same time, all i care about are the checks and wires that get deposited

We then have maybe 20 affiliates that send on average less than 1 sale per day.

But whales now a days arent like the whales of yesteryear. Few years ago it wasnt uncommon to see single affiliates doing 50-100 a day on their own. Heck, give me 20 affiliates doing that kind of volume i'd blow a goat.

But whales now a days arent like the whales of yesteryear. Few years ago it wasnt uncommon to see single affiliates doing 50-100 a day on their own. Heck, give me 20 affiliates doing that kind of volume i'd blow a goat.
