Well that cliquish stuff helps but is not what I was talking about.
Though out this thread there has primarly been talk about traffic, getting it, and converting it. Been some talk about being innovative and even some talk about content.
Still have not seen a whole lot of discussion about keeping the members you do get. Businesses are built on returning clients and most fail if they rely on one time shoppers. New blood helps but it should never be the main focal point of any business. So often it seems programs spend obscene amounts of money trying to get new customers but if you take a look inside they obviously are not spending the same amount or more keeping the ones they do have. Of course there are several exceptional programs that do just that and they not only see the results but so do all of their revshare affiliates (even if the offer pps for the fools). We all should know the saying about keeping a customer...
Now before anyone goes on about customers quickly cancel or are to jaded or what ever the fucking reason, think before you reply. They only quickly cancel or are jaded because of just what I was saying, few programs give a rats ass about them once they have them inside the doors.
For affiliates of course this may not seem to apply but trust me it does. For once look past the amount they are willing to pay you and check into the sites and the program. Make sure it would keep you as a customer before you decide to push what traffic you have at it. Because trust me if you just keep throwing your traffic to whomever happens to be paying a large sum you very will could be one of the very reasons so many customers are getting jaded to begin with.
