1. Does the affiliate program offer you a free way to join without buying the product or service?
This is very important to me because I love duplication in my down line!
2. Contact other affiliates already in the program to see if they have had any problems.
If you can talk to someone currently using the program its nice to have some insight from them!
3. Is the product or service related to your target audience?
You can sell a steak to a vegetarian!
4. Can they notify you by e-mail when a sale is made?
This is very important to me because I like to know the minuet I get paid!
5. Do they offer backend products so you can get repeat sales from the same person?
Also very important and great to have who doesn’t like more money!
6. How often will you receive a commission check?
This does not matter to me that much as long as I get paid at least once a month I don’t like to go longer than that!
7. Do you get credited for a sale if people come back in month and then make a purchase?
This is very important because a lot of people do not buy the first time they see the product but after they try it their way and fail they come back!
8. Can you get around-the-clock help online or offline?
Also very important to me because I like to work with companies that care about me!
9. Do you get a large percentage of each sale as commission?
I don’t worry about this as much as long as it is a positive number obviously if it had a lower commission rate then it would fall to the bottom of my list and not get as much exposure.
10. Do they provide you with proven sales material? (links, banners, classified ads, sales letters etc)
Very important to me as well because I don’t want to spend all my time writing and making graphics to push someone else’s stuff!
11. Will they give you the leeway to create promotional ads.
Not to important unless you really want to create your own adds!
12. Do they offer you access to an online sales stats page?
