Any commissioned salesman is theoretically an out sourced sales staff. What about a car lot that has 20 sales men too many. The theory is if 20 can sale 40 cars a week. Then 40 can sale 45 to 50 because each will be trying harder to make their commission. This business is no different.
I get confused with all the fuss about "affiliates" costing a program money. I got into this business a few years ago. I bought some domains. I signed up as an affiliate with a few programs. Took their promo content and built me some sites. And have been letting the search engines do their thing. I rarely if ever contact a program for something. I do it all my self. Have I cost them something yet?
So I advertise their product which helps me get visitors to my site. Many of those visitors click their product and end up at their site.
Now, every time I do happen to make a sale, what did I cost them?
Affiliates ( free salesmen), are not the problem. A little bad luck mixed with a little poor business management has been putting companies out of business for a long time in the past and will for a long time in the future.
