If a company could split their expenses 50% with an affiliate, what the hell, why not?
You sent one sale that was worth $29. You have $14.50.
NATS Tier 1 costs: $150/mo
Elevated X costs: $150/mo
Cheaper bandwidth: $5/mbit (average), let's say 30mbit sustained.
Server rental: $450/mo (Let's say one members area, one NATS, relatively small program).
Ok, so, processor fees are 12%, so your $14.50 is now $13.63 (that's 6%).
Now, where can you be invoiced for the outstanding balance of $436.37?
That is, of course, assuming that the content and employees work for free.
This is just an entirely non-sustainable model if you can't keep the numbers up. Period. Now, send another 200 joins, and hey, both make money. But at these margins? Nuh-uh.
