Hi Affi Claus!

Equator run a couple of programmes that you might be interested in in the lead up to Christmas.

Firstly Wickes - the well-known DIY retailer is available for sign up on Affiliate Window and offers a competitive 4% commission across all product ranges. We have some great gift ideas for Christmas and even have a dedicated landing page for all your traffic, making the chances of a conversion even higher! Check out the page here. Customers even get free next day delivery on all orders over £45 making it the perfect place to shop this Christmas. You can sign up for the programme here.

We also run fashion retailer M&Co.'s affiliate programme, again on Affiliate Window - offering a great 8% on all ranges. There are some great ideas for partywear for ladies, www.mandco.com - Partywear, also available for plus size, tall and petite women. The boutique range was recently launched and is only available in a few selected stores - making the website the perfect place to visit for this stylish collection of clothing and accessories. There are some great gift ideas for women in the lingerie section of the site as well as the extensive clothing ranges.

There is something for all the family at M&Co. with great menswear and kids ranges, including the famous Kylie section for teenage girls. Getting the house ready for Christmas couldn't be easier with M&Co. with some great ideas to give your home a facelift - take a look at the range here. And all you have to do to sign up to the programme is click here.

If you have any questions about either programme then please let me know - or if I can pull together some Christmassy copy for either merchant

Thanks,

Fi

Oops forgot to mention - Wickes have a great offer on at the moment, an exclusive code for our affiliates which gives customers 15% off all purchases when they spend £100 or more. The code is valid from today until 30th November. All customers have to do is enter AF5 in the promotional code box at the checkout.

Merry Christmas

[Affi Liate]

Thanks Fi,

will take a look at at M&Co plus the Wickes landing page. Be interested to know if the Wickes stuff shifts at Chrimbo, will give the page a feature anyway...

Justhomdotcom - cheers was thinking of doing the old "get him pants for xmas" approach...

Also Paul I've been featuring Iwoot a bit already (new merchant for me) was not aware of Mum & Dad stuff on Iwoot but will take another butchers...

Right ee o, a few more suggestions aside and I should have enough info for my kids to get started shopping for all my goodies...

Thank you

Affi Claus

What exactly do you mean by 'Mum and Dad' gifts? If its just presents suitable for Mums and Dads I'm sure Paul would agree when I say that the vast majority of Dads appreciate a remote control helicopter for Christmas.

One of the best gifts for Dads we have are the Beer Bottle Goblets .

And for Mums, have you seen Spa Lights?

Things like digital photo frames, cool tech products etc really do appeal to everyone now.

Anyway, if you need any more ideas and want to feature Firebox on your site, feel free to drop me a line.

Thanks
Naomi

Hi

I won't try to suggest what presents would be good for parents at Christmas (as I haven't got the foggiest what to get my parents!! )

...but you might find a couple of ideas here : Christmas Catalogue 2007 or : 24studio - Great Gifts For The Family*

24Studio is set up with both Affiliate Window and Commission Junction on a 6% commission (and average 6% conversion from click to sale)

Plus we're running a competition for affiliates to win a holiday at the end of January as well - details here : http://www.affiliates4u.com/forums/a...nterested.html



Hope this helps. Feel free to contact me if you need anything
