Incentives include monetary prizes and physical prizes (we have seen prizes as large as a new car) for the affiliates... [...]

This makes them more likely to buy, and since they know you offer the best prices, it makes them more likely to come back again.

The Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) Endorsement Guides have put forward the norms for various kinds of promotional activities over the Internet. AWeber columnist Andy Shal has shared some important guidelines that are applicable to the affiliate marketers.
