Calls are a bit overboard, I remember getting a call back in 2004 myself. Threw me off, had a decent convo, somewhat productive I suppose. But definately better to use ICQ or AIM or the like.
That being said, I think sponsors used to make a lot more effort with their affiliates also. I used to sign up to programs and get adds on ICQ soon thereafter. Most sponsors are doing pretty well at providing all the tools needed for success, without helping much on the marketing strategy. Different sites/niches have better luck with certain campaigns, or am I incorrect? Would definately help out in my opinion to get a little guidance now and then. It benefits both parties in the end.
I'm just an affiliate and a hobbyist though.
I'll gf-myself :-)
