i agree if you get the company to work you out a special deal and pay you more.
99% of the sponsors here will not listen. They believe in the shutgun approach, the more people they get the more likely they are to get a couple really good affiliates. If they throw out the "free cars" and " $200 thursday and sunday payouts" they get more people to signup to their program. So they figure more people sign up more likely to get a couple good ones. However, I seriously doubt any of the big producers are attracted to these companies because of the chance to win a free car. Seriously think about, if you switched to a company because of the promo "win a free car", how much do you make. need i say more. Now, some of these companies will tell you that they give the prizes as rewards to their webmastes, ok welll if that is the case then why do you harp on it so much and use it as an advertising tool. Seriously, if it is a reward just announce in your webmasters area.
I for one would prefer to work with a company that is serious about making money, not giving shit away as prizes. They should spend all of their advertising on bragging about their top affiliates and how much they make with their program. Instead of telling you " our top 5 guys made 1 million this month, they tell you " with us you have a chance to win a free car" whooaa hoo now that gets me excited where do i signup lol.
