Without a relationship there is NO incentive for a program to work with us when there is a problem.The recent terms and conditions fiascos are an excellent example. Had we immediately thrown every program out at the first sign of trouble NONE of them would have come back to the table and gone back to non predatory terms. Instead we have maintained communication, they COULDNT deny that affiliates had problems with these new terms IT WAS OBVIOUS. And because they are still certified partners they have an INCENTIVE and a mandate to respond to the affiliates here at our community.
I agree. We need acess to programs so we can get them to fix things.
Tossing them fixes nothing.
