The y convince people to take their product and present it to customers in a way that those customers will display/offer it to customers. The final decision on whether to buy is left to the customer, the packaging and presentation of that product relies on the marketing/design people to come up with the right display.
The ultimate success of the product relies on the product itself, because getting a one off sale it pretty easy on this level of product. Getting the customer to buy it repeatedly is down to the product. Will he/she buy it again. And continue to buy it for weeks, months or years? Time is the goal.
So how does this relate to the product we sell?
If a rep convinces you his sites will sell to your traffic, you as a clever businessman will give it a try. If you find it's not working as the rep said, you move your traffic. This is logical and sensible.
If when one of your surfers joins the site and sees it's great, they stay and stay and you're getting rebills for a long time. If he sees it crap and doesn't renew you get one months payout.
In porn we have a far bigger problem, we not only compete with each other. We now compete with free porn. If the bought product doesn't offer more than the free product, the customers don't buy at all.
Changing the format it's shot in, giving it away for free in ever increasing amounts and having strange ideas that what happens with affiliate reps, and salespeople while doing nothing else. Is going to convince no one to buy a membership month after month. On the site you promote or any other site.
Putting up a site like yours, shows your level.
