    Once again it's that time of year when the snow will be on it's way and before we know it the plump bearded fella will be throwing himself down the chimney quicker than we can say ho ho ho! So in time honoured tradition (yep, the start of October! ) we thought we'd best tell you everything we've got planned for our Christmas Affiliate Promotion...

    brief outline...

    • Affiliate Competition.
    • Christmas Creative.
    • Converting clicks into sales/commission.
    • £5 Off Voucher Offer.
    • Best Sellers Lists.


    Affiliate Competition

    This year we are going to be rewarding ten of our top performing affiliates with some super dooper prizes.



    The prizes we are going to give away are.[list=1][*]Nevada Pool Table or Chelsea Football Table (or £250 cash). [*]Porsche Power Experience (or £150 cash).[*]Hi Back Bean bag (or £150 cash).[*]Bushnell North Star "GO TO" Telescope 525 x 3 (or £150 cash).[*]Champion Rocking Horse. (or £150 cash).[*]4 Person Traditional Picnic Basket (or £100 cash).[*]Spa Day (or £100 cash).[*]Suede Bean bag (or £80 cash).[*]Safety Firepit (or £50 cash).[*]iKTV Karaoke Machine (0r £40 cash).[/list=1]
    Basically the winners can chose either a prize or if you don't fancy any of them, the cash prize in its place.

    We do however, want to offer as many affiliates as possible the chance to win a prize this Christmas and so in good old Oscar styley we'll be offering prizes in the following categories...
    [list=1][*]Total Commission generated.[*]Most Sales generated (if same person will go to second place etc). [*]Most improved affiliate. [*]Best page using prezzybox.com creative. [*]Biggest single commission. [*]Best newcomer. [*]Lucky dip - any affiliate promoting prezzybox and generating 1 sale will be put into the hat for a lucky dip. [*]Surprise category.[*]Surprise category.[*]Surprise category.[/list=1]
    Prizes will given for the performance in October, November and December.

    New Creative

    Ben, Bianca and Tony have been busy beavering away with their packages to design all sorts of weird and wonderful creative to use on your sites.



    These include:
    [list=1][*]Content Units: A lot of affiliates when testing our new site commented on how much they liked the pop overs on the top ten list. We have recreated this feature for affiliates to use on their own sites as a content unit. This means you paste a small line of code in your pages and it will reproduce the feature for you simply and effectively. We have content units for the top 5 and top 10 stocking fillers and christmas gifts. [*]Gift Wizard Dynamic Boxes: These proved a great hit for affiliates last year and they are available again in some brilliant new designs. Your visitors can use the gift wizards on your site to find the perfect gift for their loved one on prezzybox.[*]Search Boxes: These cut and paste search boxes can be used on your site to find specific products on prezzybox. Simply type in the name/category of product you would like to buy and it will automatically take you to the specific product on our site. [*]New Creative: Both new generic and Christmas creative have been produced in every shape and size you could possibly ever require from small 120 buttons to large skyscrapers. There are banners for specific categories and products and also for our five pound off registering voucher which proves a big hit with affiliates and customers. [/list=1]
    To see the creative in all of its glory please Click Here .

    Remember if you want ANY creative designed specifically for your site, let us know and we'll see what we can do for you!

    Turning your clicks into sales.

    We feel we've improved on a number of points this year which we hope will bring in extra commission for yourselves...

    Commission

    We've raised the commission to 8% for Christmas. We also convert favourably in our sector (2% conversion at the minute which ordinarily goes up to 5% at Christmas) and we offer a 365 cookie on AWIN and Lifetime (Customer Base) commission on POR. Our current validation rate is 98.90%.

    New Site Design

    You may or may not know, we have recently launched a redesigned version of Prezzybox. Early indications suggest that the redesign will convert better. The images are displayed better etc and we have more cross selling opportunites on the site.

    Free Delivery on All orders over £25.

    Now, you might think this is negative (we used to offer free delivery on all orders). However, since we've introduced a minimum spend for free delivery our average order value has gone up, without our order numbers going down. Consequently so will your commissison.

    £5 Off Voucher Offer.

    For the next 3 months we are happy to give you a £5 gift voucher code which you can pass on to your users. This code can be specific to your site. So for example you could have a voucher code of "MY SITE 2004". This would entitle your users to £5 off ANY order for the next three months!

    Let me know if this interests you and I'll happily create a voucher code specific to your site.

    Best Sellers Lists

    At Christmas we sell sack loads (pun intended) of stocking fillers. Consequently our best sellers lists below is full of the little blighters. Based on Christmas 2003, we expect the following products to sell very well this year...

    ...and some new products this year which we know will sell well are:

    Categories to promote

    As well as selling a lot of stock fillers we sell a lot of high ticket products which generate good commission for our affiliates. Some of the categories that are worth promoting are:


    And Finally...

    That's all for now. We hope it gives you something to work with. If there is ANYTHING at all we can do for you - be it produce some creative specific to your site, or generate a particular report - then please do not hesitate to contact either myself or any other members of the team.

    Cheers,
    Ben

    wow Zak/Ben Prezzybox must be in line for the finals of the "most proactive affiliate scheme" award..

    nice array of creatives, info and incentives

    it's ironic that some merchants can hardly be bothered to answer an email let alone provide such info and in such a pro active manner.

    Prezzybox is gonna go far with you guys driving

    Hi chaps,

    Thanks for that - much appreciated.

    I'll put the donkey aside for your Shane.

    Yes Joe - slapped wrists! There will be trouble if you don't get the gadget site live...

    On a serious note, the gift vouchers have been working well for us. So, if any affiliates would like us to create voucher codes specific to them, then let me know and I'll get it sorted for you.

    Cheers,

    Zak.

    We've spotted a few problems with some of the new interactive creative

    (from a non techy viewpoint!) When tested from our side everything appears to work OK but testing today shows that when it submits through AWIN's server it's failing to add a hidden form field.

    Our techies are talking to their techies and this will be resolved in the morning. I'll keep you posted.

    FYI, all of the POR creative is fine, as is the Christmas creative from last year.

    As soon as it is fixed I'll let you know.

    Cheers,

    Zak.

    Tony, our techy, has fixed this problem

    He will also be speaking to AWIN tomorrow morning to ensure that this type of problem doesn't happen again.

    In the mean time, if you spot any problems let me know and I'll ensure it is looked into.

    Cheers,

    Zak.

    Hi Carol,

    You can find the new interactive creative under dynamic links on AWIN.

    The banners are all named ^^^NEW PREZZYBOX 04^^^ _name
    (for example ^^^NEW PREZZYBOX 04^^^ Xmas Wizards)

    All the rest of the static banners should be in their usual places.

    I hope this helps.

    Let me know if you want me to create you a voucher code - just drop me an email/PM.

    Have a great weekend.

    Zak.

    Hi All,

    Just a quick update to let you know how the big Prezzybox Christmas Competition is panning out so far...

    All of these totals are accurate up until the end of November 2004:

    Total Commission generated and Most Sales generated:

    There are 5 main runners so far in both of these categories and they are listed below (in no particular order!):

    1) The Good Shop Guide.
    2) Compare Store Prices.
    3) Loquax.
    4) Full Steam Ahead.
    5) Pooloo.


    Most improved affiliate:

    There are a few affiliates who have improved greatly over the course of the year (it is worked out on the percentage increase in commission) and these are all in the running for most improved affiliate:

    1) Shopper UK.
    2) Big Idea Media.
    3) Shopmadstock.
    4) Loquax.
    5) Greasy Palm.


    Biggest single commission:

    The biggest single commission so far in the last two months has gone to Easy to Recall webzine. Their commission of £38 pounds beats all others so far by around £10!

    Best newcomer:

    The affiliates below are those that have had good sales totals/commission since joining our affiliate program from September onwards this year:

    1) Pooloo
    2) Deal Click


    So the competition is very much on in all categories! Just think, give your site that extra push over these last few weeks with some of our great creative and you could walk away with one of the great prizes shown at the start of this thread.

    Also, do not worry if you are not mentioned above! Remember, there are other categories in which you can win prizes including our lucky dip draw and the best webpage using Prezzybox.com creative so there is a chance for everyone!

    Cheers,
    Ben
