Ever Wanted To Run Your Own Affiliate Network?

hasoffers-logoDuring the first week of May I received an email from Andrew Bachman informing me about their new website called HasOffers.

I normally would have shrugged it off like I do most emails I get daily about random stuff, but Andrew mentioned in the email they were sharing this with me because of how great my relationship is with Mike Cataldo, who is the Director of Affiliate Relations for Tatto Media so that spiked my interest and got me to take a look. Am I ever glad I did!

Basically, HasOffers allows anyone to setup their own network in a matter of minutes, for free, which is just incredible.

Now, it can get pretty pricy if you are running your own linktrust or directtrack network and are not doing substantial volume to justify it. Hasoffers offers the same services and quality (if not better) they do but it’s FREE! (for up to 250,000 Clicks per Month), if you require more it’s pretty cheap starting at $99/month for up to 500k clicks and if you are really killing it up to $799/month for unlimited clicks. This is a pretty dam good deal if you have a purpose for your own network.

Personally I have played around with the HasOffers system a lot on my own account and I plan on using it for some campaigns very soon.

You may be thinking, why do I need my own network if I can just run my offers through other already existing networks and let them do all the work? Well you could…or you could run your own private network for just yourself and make more money.

Let’s say you’re running a particular biz opp campaign and a network is paying you $37 a lead. If you went direct to the advertiser you may be able to get paid anywhere from $40-$45 or more by running it through your own network. You’re basically eliminating the middleman of a network.

Now, there are disadvantages to this route. The main ones being payment terms and safety. Most people use networks and take less pay because they can get paid on a weekly basis and are usually safe if the advertiser decides not to or can’t pay.

So, you have to weigh your options and decide if you want less risk and less reward or more risk and more reward, different people, different levels of risk.

Of course the main purpose of HasOffers is so you can run your own network and have other affiliates run offers through it and you generate whatever margins you decide on.

All in all I think HasOffers is an incredible service with how simple it is to setup and use.  If you haven’t yet you should definitely check it out.

Free Trip To Affiliate Summit East Contest Extended

Tue, Jun 30, 2009

1 Comment

A lot of people have signed up to the Tatto Network but not many have generated much income so we have decided to extend the contest another month until the end of July, and if nobody else chooses to participate than one of the guys who made a few sales will probably take it. Tatto has some great offers and great pay so you should really check them out if you haven’t yet.

Pretty sweet deal, a free flight and pass to Affiliate Summit East for such little effort.

Remember all you need to do to participate is sign up for  Tatto Media under this link and generate revenue, whoever generates the most wins.

Productivity And Focus

Mon, Jun 29, 2009

2 Comments

Often when we get too comfortable we stop working and trying as hard as we did to get to where we are now. Keeping focus on your long term goals is vital to success.

I have found myself often too comfortable when I have reached goals I wanted to achieve, and thus gotten lazy. It’s really only once something drastic happens like losing a major client that you stop and realise how important it is to never be comfortable and always be pushing forward.

I haven’t had too many problems with business as it has been going great for a long time now but I often find myself losing focus which ultimately effects productivity.

Some things I do now to keep my focus is to go outside and walk around for a bit, do some cleaning, go out for lunch, etc. This may seem silly but I can say from personal experience that working LESS will INCREASE productivity. If I am on the computer working straight for 16 hours I will be drained and very inefficient.

Keep your focus and you will keep your productivity.

Shamwow Guy In Jail

I saw this yesterday on CollegeHumor’s Channel and thought it was pretty hilarious.

I laughed pretty hard at the part where he stabs the guy then goes, “add an egg, slice of ham and a pickel, breakfast!”

“…So buy fast because I can’t do this all day, I just killed 2 guys and I’m gonna get the electric chair.”

The Best Mouse/Keyboard Setup I Have Ever Used

mx5500

When I recently purchased my new computer setup I was recommended to get the Logitech MX 5500 Revolution Cordless Desktop setup.

I have many wireless and non wireless keyboard/mouse setups and this one is BY FAR the best one I have ever used.

From the moment I started using it I was amazed at how quiet, comfortable and perfect everything was. I sound like such a nerd right now but for real if you spend a lot of time working online you NEED this setup.

You can thank me later.
