Copeac put out an email yesterday detailing some changes they are making to their network. A lot of them have to do with the look and feel of their interface. One change they are making that popped out at me is:
We are also excited to announce the launch of the Copeac Leaders Section. This is a separate section of Copeac that is only available to high volume producing affiliates that we have met personally. Copeac Leaders will have access to some offers that the rest of the network can’t see, Leaders will also get first crack at popular offers prior to their release to the rest of the network. In addition Leaders will have exclusive invites to events and shows (such as the party at the palms this year http://www.copeac.com/PalmsParty2009/) a different bonus program than the rest of the network, no wire fees, faster payments, priority on IT and Design requests and much more. To learn more about becoming a Copeac Leader please speak to your AM.
I find this little announcement interesting. They are basically saying that they are going to give special offers, payouts etc to affiliates the KNOW and have met in PERSON. It’s a little bit of a slap in the face to new affiliates but it’s also a bit of a reward for SERIOUS affiliates. With this industry growing as fast as it is, new fly by night affiliates enter every day. Some do some sketchy stuff out of wanting to make a buck or just pure ignorance.
Theres also a whole other breed of affiliates that attend conferences and have a personal relationship with their affiliate managers. In my opinion, these type of affiliates a a whole lot less likely to commit fraudulent activities or try to screw advertisers/networks out of money. These affiliates are people who take this business seriouly and consider it a career, not a get rich quick scheme. These are obviously the type of affiliates Copeac wants and will reward for developing a relationship with them.
Copeac is a good network. My AM, Jeff over there is great so if you are signing up, request him.
(Please note, there are no affiliate links in this post. I don’t care if you sign up or not, just giving you guys some info about a good company)
You hyped up the network but forgot to put down your affiliate link
@Dookie – This is not like all the other blogs trying to sell crap to you. I mentioned this story because it’s good stuff, not because I want your commissions.
Of course I will sometimes drop an affiliate link, but it’s not what i’m all about.
Great blog. I just met some folks at Copeac in Vegas at the recent Affiliate Summit. They definitely are trying to establish personal relationships, and they are even willing to customize landing pages for me. Very rare in the affiliate industry!
