redhat39 Posted May 23, 2015 Report Posted May 23, 2015 I've been looking for alternative affiliate marletplaces outside of Clickbank and was wondering if anyone here has any experience with Share-A-Sale as a product vendor OUTSIDE the IM/MMO niche. In particular the niche I'm wanting to move into is in the self improvemnet/personal finance niche. Any tidbits of info or experience would be most appreciated. Quote
LifeTransformation Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 I don't have any experience as a seller, but I have bought stuff from JVZoo via their various affiliates. What are you trying to do? I own lifetransformationacademy.com and the 'money' section is dead write now. Do you write? I could feature your informative blog posts with some native advertising that points to your offer... Also, tripleclicks is great (see my signature image below). 4 million members, and millions of SFI affiliates promoting it (I am one)...it's a bit of a hidden gem for selling right now Quote Check Out My Coaching Program & Learn How You Can Stop Overwhelm And Frustration Dead In It’s Tracks… ignition.elitemarketingacademy.com Also, check out TripleClicks (just click the image below). They now have over 4 million users, so it's a great place to list your products, and it's free!http://sfibanners.csidn.com/banner452.png
redhat39 Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Posted May 30, 2015 After much research I found most of the answer to my questions about Share-a-Sale but as of yet not found any vendors there to share any info on their success in the marketplace there. The basics of becoming a vendor on Share-a-Sale is that there is a product approval phase much like Clickbank. If approved as a vendor there is a $500 account setup fee and at least a $250 affiliate payment deposit fee. You aren't charged per item you list in their marketplace like you are with Clickbank but you are billed monthly for any affiliate commissions which is pro-rated on your previous month's sales history. This is much the same process as becoming a vendor on Commission Junction except that CJ the start up fees are significantly higher ($2500 and $1000). The reason why I'm even considering Share-a-Sale is because their marketplace is so diverse that it attracts affiliates in some of the really popular niches outside of IM. But considering the start up costs and my lack of finding any real vendor feedback on how well their sales are through them I guess for now I'm going to stick with Clickbank when doing anything outside of the IM niche.

Lee1390335936 Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 I recently opened a share-a-sale affiliate account but have not begun to promote any of their products or services just yet. Do you think that self improvement is for someone who is not familiar with coaching should get into or should I just try to promote something different. Appreciate any advice, thanks for sharing and good post! Leehttp://leehow.strikingly.com Quote
swb338 Posted September 18, 2015 Report Posted September 18, 2015 Don't forget to check out offervault.com and to do a simple web search for "best affiliate programs for self-help". Also for personal finance, do a google search for private or institutional affiliate offers. Some of them might be quite lucrative. Quote
