Why don't ALL sponsors do this?

Hey everyone

I was reading the Epassporte thread (naming of the program account)
and was thinking.

The problem for affiliates of trying to work out which Epassporte payment is from which sponsor is caused from a lack of basic business practices from many programs.

Most programs will never even email you a basic email once every 2 weeks(on payment day) telling you how much was just paid to you and where it went.

Why don't all programs simply email affiliates something like this :

------------------------------------------------------
"Hi there Stephen

You made $5900 this period and you were just paid this amount by (Epassporte) to account [email protected].
Date : 07/10/06
Paid from account ([email protected])

Thank you for promoting us"
------------------------------------------------------

Can someone tell me why all programs don't do this? It can be done with wires, epassporte quite easily.

All our affiliates are emailed courtesy emails informing the affiliate how much they got paid and to where. It takes 20 seconds extra using a html template (copy & paste) or 3 seconds per affiliate using our new Php scripted system.

We get paid $1000's weekly by various programs and it just get dumped into our Epassporte along with 100's of other transactions, which makes it a chore to track each sponsor to make sure they paid on time etc.

Wouldn't it be nice if more programs would send courtesy emails?

Just a thought I had. Discuss.

Matt

I don't like epassporte for security reasons, but in general, you are totally right. It's not much work and makes it alot easier for your affiliates.

Btw, the same goes for "free hosted gallery newsletters" from sponsors. I like them, makes it easy to find new content and put it up in one of my blogs..BUT why do so many sponsors not include the affiliate codes in the links ?

I'm signed up for about 20 different sponsors via ccbill for example, no, I can't remember the affiliate number for all of them, so I have to look them up and replace this xxxxxxx every time. Even worse, a few don't even fill in your affiliate code in the webmaster area...php isn't rocket sience.

We always email our webmasters when we send a epassporte payment, but we are in frequent contact with our webmasters as most of them are very nice and it helps form a better working relationship which leads to more sales.
