Mondera Makes for New Affiliate Experience and Profits
Traditional affiliate marketing takes on a whole new face and higher profits as Mondera focuses in on affiliate support with tools, forums, and fast response, a service not seen elsewhere in affiliate programs.
New York, NY (PRWEB) July 20, 2004 -- The Internet era has ushered in a whole new opportunity for people wanting to work at home, a business trend on the rise with every passing year. And in many cases, people are doing little more than acting as marketers for other businesses through what are called affiliate programs.
In most of these programs, affiliates are provided with graphical ads or text links (to use in e-mails or on web sites) and are simply asked to go sell. The affiliate usually earns a percentage or a flat rate per sale.
The challenge for many of these marketers, though, is that they get little to no support from those whose products and services they're selling. Popular programs can have hundreds or even thousands of affiliates selling for them, and companies generally don't provide the resources to respond to so many people's needs.
Mondera, a leading online retailer of diamonds and jewelry, is changing all of that, and is winning awards as a result. In 2002, they earned the title of "Best Affiliate Program" by the votes of more than 7000 active affiliates Now, in 2004, theyve earned a similar, "Affiliate's Choice Award."
"We keep earning this honor because we think of our program differently," explains Mondera's Managing Director, Fred Mouawad. "No business in the world would hire salespeople and then ignore their needs, or the business would sink. In the case of affiliate programs, businesses arent even employing these salespeople. If you think about it, that gives the business more resources to put towards supporting them, and that is the approach weve taken. Unfortunately, many businesses more or less abandon this precious resource."
Mondera's support today takes many forms. Not only do they respond quickly to affiliate inquiries and provide a dedicated support forum, but they also offer unique tools such as "custom data feeds." An affiliate who wants to sell diamonds, for example, can provide a search tool on his or her own web site. When someone clicks through and buys a $4000 diamond from the affiliate site, the affiliate earns $240 or more on that sale.
More support generally means more sales, putting money into company and affiliate pockets alike. Mondera says that their average earning affiliate receives $87 per sale with top payouts hitting $7,000 per month from their program alone. This suggests that more companies will eventually see the advantage of helping affiliates and will try catching up to Monderas example, "but we won't slow down,"says Mouawad. "We intend to always offer the top support among affiliate programs."
