Hi all,
Many of you will know me as a moderator on this forum, as an affiliate, and some members from the 'old' forum will recall I did dabble in affiliate management back then too. Well, I'm back on the other side of the fence, and this is the first of (hopefully) a few more quality programs I'll be managing.
I first had contact with Creating Careers a month or so ago, and on speaking with them about this industry, I immediately identified a truely 'win win win' situation. They are in a unique position where they have the ability to use excess capacity in FE Colleges with 'distance learning' students, by offering students the ability to study online. Furthermore, just like an FE College, the courses are funded by the Learning and Skills Council, so there's nothing for the student to pay!
Win - Creating Careers provide more students to FE Colleges
Win - The student gets to study for a course, and get a real, recognised qualification at the end of it, at no cost to themselves
Win - The affiliate gets to earn lots of cash promoting a service that is of no cost to the end user
I can see this program being 'big' with the freebie sites at first. But, equally so, very successful for those of you with job/education/recruitment/training websites, as you could expect to see some very high conversions from registration to a 'sale'.
As per the program description, we will introduce a tierred commission system a little further down the line. Although I cannot say what these levels will be (will all depend on the first month's initial conversions) but we will be prepared to pay alot more on 'sales' for those affiliates who provide higher converting students from the point of registration to going on to complete 6 weeks of a given course. Additionally, I will make sure that any affiliate who does achieve high conversions in the next few weeks will have all their historical sales upgraded to the higher commission, so please don't hold back with your traffic, as I will make sure your traffic is paid what it's worth from the outset!
Finally, I
am totally dedicated to this program and
