Can we get assurance of life-time partnership with the affiliate?
Yes sir you can.
I assure you that every player I send will be our partnership for life.
What more do you want?
I can send that same player to a dozen other places that will jump on my offer, why should i settle for 3 years?
we all know poker players have very long lasting relationships when they find a site they like; so come on, a person would have to be a complete moron to choose to send a player to a site that is only willing to pay you for what may be only 20% of the time the player stays there; less even.
No, the 3 year thing will be what keeps PR from competing with the bigger sites like Party poker that offer the standard lifetime deal.
This is a no-brainer. Please do not insult our intelligence by rationalizing-away the point.
as for whether we will be your partner for life or not;
aside from the fact that hey: I have 100 depositing players, would you like them to be signed up and playing at PR? If you would like this to happen, please agree to splitting the rake with me for the lifetime of the player’s accounts; and further more I will take only 30% of the rake, not half:
to which you either agree or disagree. If you agree, I send the players. If not; I send them somewhere else that is willing to agree to the standard:
to which any smart operator is going to jump on.
but setting that aside for a second; (meaning that future signups are just that; future; we have made no agreements past that last group of players I sent you)
but keep in mind that there is no logical, intelligent reason for an affiliate to drop a program unless they are caught cheating, try to change the rules midstream without my agreeing to it, or somehow mistreat the players I send them; or for not producing.
Hey if you guys aren’t turning my traffic into players, then what good am I to you anyway? And vice-versa. So that part of things will take care of itself.
There is just no reason to ever consider dropping a sponsor who pays on time, and converts within an acceptable ratio, unless they try to crap on us somehow. And there’s plenty of that out there so all the more reason to be loyal to the places that are loyal (meaning fair) to us.
so if that’s all that was holding up this parade, then get the terms changed and lets see if you don’t suddenly get an increase of traffic from doing nothing more than the right thing.
Its not often you get the chance to do the right thing…. AND make more money.
