WARNING:

Do NOT Promote Any Guitar Related Affiliate or Associate Program Unless It Meets The Following Criteria!

In A Nutshell: "When and how will I be paid?"

We are a two-tier affiliate program that rewards you for signing up not only customers, but other affiliates as well. You'll be earning 30% 1st tier commissions on your direct sales, plus you'll earn 15% 2nd tier commissions on sales from other affiliates that signed up under you.

Dear Friend,

Are you the webmaster of a guitar or music related web site? Are you looking for a very profitable affiliate program or associate program to promote so that you can make some extra money from your web site? If you are, may I suggest that you ask yourself the following questions before choosing any program to promote?

1) Does the affiliate program track sales and orders using a single "session cookie" or a 10-year cookie?

Why are cookies so important? Let's make an example. Let's pretend that you promote Clickbank products and you get a commission at the time of sale, but as I read the web site it appears they don't set cookies, so if someone buys 7 months later you don't get a commission.

A lot of affiliate and associate programs use what are called "session cookies" which means you only get paid if the person buys within 24 hours of clicking on your link. Worse than that, with some programs you only get paid if they order via your link immediately when they go to the web site. What this means to you is, you've spent all this time, energy, effort, trouble, cost and expense promoting to search engines, building a link, getting traffic, opt-ins and clicks and in the end you're left screwed with the short end of the stick. What kind of a feeling is that?

That's why we set 10-year cookies. So, we can track sales literally up to 10 years from the time the person clicks on your affiliate link, limited of course by the technical aspects of cookies. But it's one heck of a lot better system than only paying you if someone buys within a 12 or 24-hour period.

2) Does the affiliate program follow up with additional products or services to your buyers AND pay you commissions on those follow up sales?

Did you know that with a lot of programs you don't make any money on the follow up sales to your buyers? You get zero. Nada. Zilch. In other words, you spend all your money and all your time getting someone to buy their products to get a 1 time 50% commission and the affiliate program owner promotes the heck out of that new buyer and get them to buy all kinds of other stuff and you don't even get a thank you, let alone a check in the mail.

With our affiliate program we follow up with YOUR buyers with several different products and services that you can earn commissions on.

What this means to you is, you can get a buyer one time and make additional commissions by doing nothing because we follow up, we pay for the auto responders, we write the emails, we handle the live chat calls, we return emails and we make the sales and YOU get the commission.

3) Are the affiliate or associate program products targeted for the guitar?

Many guitar web site owners fall into a trap of promoting programs and services that have nothing or very little to do with the guitar. In other words, they are pushing products that their visitor has absolutely no interest in. What happens is that the web site owner ends up not earning many commissions because their visitors are guitar players interested in guitar related products.

Don't let this happen to you! We actively seeks out and promotes products targeted for guitar players of all types and skill levels. If your web site is targeted to guitar players then it only makes sense to promote our products.

4) Does your affiliate or associate program promote an endless stream of other peoples affiliate or associate program products to YOUR buyers and pay you nothing?

Did you know that a lot of affiliate or associate program owners pay you a 1 time commission and then sell an endless supply of other people's affiliate or associate program products to the customer or buyer you brought to their site, and you don't get commission on those sales?

Now I am not saying that I don't occasionally promote one of my friend's products or services, because quite frankly, I do, but it's sure as heck nothing remotely resembling a non-stop barrage. I spend the vast majority of my time attention and effort promoting my own products to my own customers so that I can pay my affiliates commission on those sales, because that's what they deserve.

Of course a lot of affiliate program owners can't do this. Why? Because they only have 1 product to begin with so they have no choice. They have bills to pay and mouths to feed so they have to promote other people's products or services and you're left with a check not even big enough to buy a latte at Starbucks.

Are you beginning to get a picture here?

I have full time staff that helps me create new products. We have a growing product list that we pay commissions on and those commissions go right into your pocket. Plus, we do the follow up for you. And we use 10-year cookies to do our best to make sure you get paid on sales down the line.

5) Does the affiliate or associate program offer a two tier commission structure?

Most programs pay commissions only on sales from visitors directly sent by you, but with our special two tier system you can earn additional commissions from visitors that you never even sent!

All you have to do is introduce other people like yourself to our affiliate program. When they become an affiliate themselves, you'll also earn an extra 15% referral fee on each and every sale that they make. And there's no limit to the number of sub-affiliates you can have.

This aspect of our affiliate program greatly increases your chances of make big money. We can't tell you how much money you will make ... but imagine if you generate just one sale per day -- and then you introduced 10 other people to the affiliate program who did the same. Imagine if you introduced 100 people to the affiliate program. The sky is the limit.

6) Does the affiliate or associate program offer live chat support so customers can get answers to their sales questions and customer service problems on the spot?

So you go out on a limb and recommend a product, then the customer buys it and can't access it or has some other problem. There's no live chat support, they send an email and don't get a return response.

Now how do you think the customer feels about you and your recommendation at that point? Probably not too happy? What do you think they are going to do next time you make a recommendation? They're probably going to pass.

With Guitar-Profits.com we pay live support operators to be there so your customers can have their questions and problems answered right away. Live support can be expensive and there are not that many companies that are willing to go that extra mile for their affiliates.

What's more, the customers have to be able to find the support. On our product's web sites the support button is right there on the navigation bar. It's super easy to find. We also have a support desk. In the event our support person has to take a break for any reason, your customer or potential customer can leave a message on our help desk and receive an immediate tracking number.

In short, when you join our affiliate program, we are going to treat the customers right. The way the deserve to be treated.

7) Does the affiliate or associate program offer live support where you can get YOUR questions answered?

Let's say you need your affiliate program ID or have a commission question. Other than the email that's (more than likely) going to get lost in the vast Internet system full of ISP email spam blockers and filters, is there any way you can get support?

With Guitar-Profits.com, we've got our person there live on weekdays to help you so all you need to do is go to our support page and click the chat button. (The hours are 10:00 AM PST to 4:30 PM CST, Monday thru Friday).

8) Does the affiliate program have a bulletproof tracking system?

We have done everything possible to ensure that you always get credit for sales that result from your efforts. Whether the visitors you send have their "cookies" turned on or off, you'll know they are being tracked properly. We track all sales -- not only those that originate at the online form, but also if a customer registers via mail or fax. Your affiliate ID code is hard-coded into the registration form.

In short, we go out of our way to make sure you get the referral fees that you deserve. Real-time statistics are provided (which allows you to view your traffic and sales stats at any time), and you also receive an email notification whenever you make a sale or signup a new sub-affiliate.

In Closing

I hope this has been an eye opening experience. As you can see, not all affiliate programs are as great as they say.

We created ours with YOU in mind and we work hard to make YOU money and keep YOU happy. We aren't perfect. We make mistakes. But we're on the ball. We're responsive. We've available. And we do our best to follow up with your customers that you bring in and pay you commissions on repeat sales.

So if that's the kind of program you want to be a member of, then sign up now.

Sincerely,
Kenny Mann
Webmaster

P.S. Your participation in this program will be governed by certain terms and conditions that are spelled out in the Affiliate Program Agreement -- be sure to read it before you get started. We have absolutely no tolerance for spammers, so if nothing else you'll want to familiarize yourself with our definition of spam. "I didn't know" is not a valid excuse.

This is Kenneth Young and I completely aggree with your information in your
affiliate program were you mention about cookies and I have suspected that there
are a lot of companies big named comoanies included has used these short cookies
and as far as I am concerned it is a deliberate scam to cheat us affiliates out
of our deserved money.

Second I like your 10 year cookies and the 2 tier
program.

I will admit I am rather new at this internet thing and would like
to get into a program like yours however right now I am having a hard time in
setting my site up and just can't afford to pay the high prices on web
designers.

Please let me know if I should apply now or wait untill I set my
site up?.
