European Lee (9:58:17 PM): because i dont need staff
European Lee (9:58:21 PM): i have no need to LOL
European Lee (9:58:29 PM): no overheads means more $$$ in my pocket
European Lee (9:58:47 PM): and the program runs itself, nothing is done manually, its all script driven

European Lee (9:58:55 PM): thats their problem then LOL
***** (9:59:16 PM): they use staff here to submit galleries for their affilaites
European Lee (9:59:28 PM): i dont need a wm, i dont need marketing people, i dont need submitters, dont need editors, etc etc
European Lee (9:59:44 PM): ah, thats why they need staff...
European Lee (9:59:49 PM): they do everything for the affiliate LOL
European Lee (10:00:05 PM): we dont, if an affiliate wants to make money with us, they gotta work for it
***** (10:00:06 PM): I do everything for my affiliates

***** (10:01:35 PM): ***cash is so big due to what?
European Lee (10:02:19 PM): due to them doing all the work....
***** (10:02:21 PM): Lee, i got affiliates that just pay for partner accounts and we submit for them and they make it back
European Lee (10:02:33 PM): they also have MUCH larger overheads than i do whic means less profits

European Lee (10:04:02 PM): right.. but that ISNT taking care of affiliates
European Lee (10:04:10 PM): thats doing all the work for them, there is a difference

***** (10:10:31 PM): Ask your board guys
European Lee (10:10:35 PM): im going to

Seriously, WTF?

Can anyone else see why i have such a problem with this from a business viewpoint? I mean if YOU do all the work for your affiliates, what are you giving them money for? :eek:

Basically, that is like me building and submitting sites for every one of you guys that read this thread AND paying you 60% of any sales *I* generate.

All you gotta do is signup to the program.

Is it just me or does this business model sound crazy to anyone else on GWW?

I've long thought there are a LOT of stupid people in the business.

How somebody could not see that if they are doing all the work, paying for all the work, and giving away 60% of the income is beyond me.

Now... if I had a handful of affiliates who were growing and producing well for me, and my helping them out short term would get them to another plateau that would allow them to make even more money, I'd do it to help our mutual businesses grow... but that's not what this guy is saying.

Maybe I should just quit doing paysites at all, sign up to his program, do nothing at all, and watch checks roll in. But somehow, I don't think that business model will last very long

I guess it does make good business sense to some though.

All the more power to them for wanting to give 60% of their gross income away for nothing.

I am totally confused... so let me see if I have this right. I go to this guy, sign up for his program, ask him to submit to tgps and stuff for me, and I get 60% and he gets 40%?

Or is he doing the submitting and all for me, and getting part of my 60% that I get from the sponsor who is say Joe's Cash N Carry paysite? If it is this, then I can see it, but if its his own paysite... then I don't see it. :coffee: and even if it is the latter, I'd assume he'd also sign up for the same sponsor and tag his own stuff on while submitting mine...

or is it just that i need more coffee? :cry:

Now that is a TonyTheTiger idear: I will drink java until I get the jitters and hot & cold flashes, and maybe the above will make some sense.

If I understand it, I join his site, then he has a shitload of people that submit galleries, blog entries, etc using MY affiliate ID, and when sales come in, 60% of the money goes to me.

Hey, if he wants to do all the work and give away a majority of the profit, he's entitled to do so, I just don't see it as a viable model in the long term.
