“The Fastest Way To Dominate Your Online Market, And Get Hundreds Of High-Traffic Web Sites To Sell For You – Risk-Free!” Grab Your 30-Day Trial And Never Again Lose Money On Advertising That Doesn’t Work!
From: Corey Rudl Wednesday, 10:44 a.m. Dear Colleague: Every time you advertise online (with banners, ezine ads, or click-throughs) – you take a big gamble. The same is true if you spend money on “search engine optimization”. After all, there’s no guarantee that you’ll recoup your costs and make a profit. That’s what’s so exciting about launching an Associate Program (also known as an “Affiliate Program” or “Reseller Program”)… you can get hundreds of high-traffic web sites to advertise for you – free of charge! And the best part is:
In essence, these web site owners function as your sales reps, working for you on straight commission. (You get to decide what the commission will be.) And they’re motivated for three reasons:
We’ve had several Associate Programs since 1995 (when Amazon.com starting doing it), and they make us over 1 million dollars in sales ($1,000,000) every year – not even including the backend sales! So I tell from experience: Having your own associate program is the fastest, most effective way to snowball your sales and dominate your online market – period. You can easily get hundreds, if not thousands of high-traffic web sites to advertise your product or service … increasing your sales and profits exponentially! Track Your Associates’ Sales And Commissions AutomaticallyYou might be wondering how you’ll keep track of the sales each associate has generated, and how much each is owed. Well here’s great news: with the right software, 90% of your program runs on autopilot! Your only responsibility is printing and mailing the commission checks at the end of each month. Think of all the benefits an automated associate program could bring you: increased profits, a larger customer base (that you can continue selling to, for even more profits!), and none of the risk of pre-paid click-through, banner, and ezine advertising. How many advertisers will let you place a new banner on their sites for free, just so you can test the results? With an AssocTRAC Associate Program, you can try out new banner ads and sales copy without fear of losing advertising dollars. After all, you didn't pay any money for the ad in the first place…you only pay a commission if they sell your product. It’s Impossible To Lose Money – You Only Pay After You’ve Made A Sale! Your own Associate Program is the cheapest way, by far, to acquire new customers and generate incredible amounts of sales in a short period of time, and it sure beats the heck out of paying for advertising upfront! Like I’ve said, you cannot lose money! Side Note: Nicole Vanderberlit of Jupiter Communications Inc. projects that “By the year 2002, it has been estimated that 25% of ALL Internet sales (over $10 Billion!) will be generated by associate programs!” Now let me show you the math and why Associate Programs can skyrocket your sales. You may already know that my biggest company, The Internet Marketing Center, has amassed 60,000+ associates over the past 4 years… and they make us over $1,000,000 every year. But even with a modest number of associates, you’ll find it surprisingly easy to multiply your profits. For example, you can find my first online business at www.carsecrets.com. I haven't even touched or promoted this business in over two years, and we only spend 20 minutes per day running it. It has fewer than 200 associates – but even this modest sales force generates over 15 sales per day. Once you have 200 associates advertising your product or service, don't you think they can produce 15 orders per day for you too?… Yes, absolutely! Easily! And they may sell a lot more. What if you had 2,000 associates? It’s not as hard as it may sound. In fact, when you get a little farther down in this letter, you’ll learn the #1 most effective way to bring new associates pouring into your program. Now let’s suppose you are only making $20 per sale… let's look at the power of Associate Programs.
Now imagine if you make a $30 profit per sale, instead of $20… your income jumps to $300,000 a year! Remember, that is not "gross sales"… that is pure profit! Snowball
Your Profits – And Automate Your Associate Program – In 1995, there was no such thing as an associate management system; they simply didn’t exist! So I invested $32,000 to have programmers build a custom associate management system from scratch. We named the system AssocTRAC. The first month after launching our Associate Program, we made $34,081 in sales… and the second month, we made over $50,000! Since them, our associates have been producing over $1,000,000 in sales every year… and that’s not even including the backend sales! As our program grew, and our sales multiplied exponentially, I realized the need for more and more reporting features. Even now, whenever I imagine a new feature that would help us make more money, I have our programmers add it. So I’m constantly reinvesting our profits into improvements. I know it’s hard to believe, but honestly, over the past six years, the total cost of improving and perfecting this state-of-the-art system has hit $248,000. As a result, it’s now very user-friendly and extremely advanced, with more cutting edge features than you could imagine. (Which you’ll get to read about in a moment.) But here is the most important point: because I built this system for my own Associate Programs, and not just as a product to sell, I’ve always had a personal stake in the effectiveness of our associate management system. The better it helps us manage our Associates and track their sales, the more money we earn. Question: Why would you buy associate software from a programmer who’s never had a successful associate program of his own, and doesn’t use his associate software on a daily basis? We’ve developed – and constantly improve – AssocTRAC based on experience, not theory. And because my expertise is marketing – NOT programming – all of these improvements make life easier, not more technically complex! Now this very same system is available to you – but for less than one third of 1% of what it cost me to build it! Bill Bultas is just one AssocTRAC customer who’s thrilled with his results:
With this system, you don't need to spend your whole day tracking customers and who referred them… it's all done for you. No paperwork, no manual calculations or order tracking. No updating associate's information, no finding passwords for associates, and no writing checks. Your Associates sign up on a simple web form, and their information is automatically entered into your database (which we will set up for you free of charge).
AssocTRAC allows you complete freedom through total automation. Even if you’re a one-man operation, it gives you the power to compete with major corporations. After all, you’ll have hundreds, or even thousands of high-traffic web sites driving people to your web site. Don’t get eaten alive because a competitor uses AssocTRAC to dominate your market before you do!

Instantly Capitalize On Other People’s High Search Engine Rankings If you’ve done research into search engine optimization, you already know that keeping your web site at the tops of search engines can be a full time job! I know web site owners who spend most of their waking hours keeping their sites at the tops of the search engines! Thousands of others hire full time employees, or outside search engine firms to maintain their rankings for them – at a cost of thousands of dollars per month. Which brings me to a major benefit of having an associate program: it enables your site to get all the exposure of a top-ranked web site – but without the work! All you need to do is go to the sites that have already secured the top listings in the search engines, and get them to become your associates. Then, YOUR banner or text link gets all of the visibility that they do! In short, your associates will do the work of driving traffic to your site, so you can deal with more important things - like expanding your business. Become An Unstoppable Associate-Recruiting Magnet – With A Two-Tier System! What’s the best way to recruit associates? After testing and comparing over 50 different recruiting methods, we found 12 that work like gangbusters. But right now, let me focus on the #1 most effective method of all. (You’ll find out about the others at the bottom of this page.) The most effective method – bar none – is the “two tier program” we built into AssocTRAC. This program lights a fire under your associates – motivating them to recruit other associates for you! Here’s why: when one of your existing associates recommends your program to new associates, and they join too, the first associate will earn “override commissions” on all of the sales made by his referrals! Just for example, look at our $197 Internet Marketing Course. Suppose that you were one of our associates, and you referred your friend, John, to become our associate too. Every time John made a sale, he’d earn a $65 commission, and YOU would earn a $20 “override commission”. When you use this feature in your OWN associate program, the percentage that you pay each associate is completely customizable. And AssocTRAC does all the work of tracking commissions (which would otherwise be a nightmare!). It even allows your associates to see what their sub-associates are earning them in real-time, and how many sub-associates they’ve signed up. Just imagine watching a core group of your associates racing to promote your program to others – all fearing that someone else might beat them to it. After all, this one-time effort can make them hundreds or thousands of effortless dollars – for life – on the sales of the associates they’ve referred. Testimonials From Web Site Owners Like You

Empowers You To Make Better Decisions – With Reports No Other Associate System Offers Unlike other associate systems – which only report total revenues – AssocTRAC was designed from a marketer’s perspective. So you can look at your sales statistics in all sorts of extremely helpful ways. You can view and print valuable reports showing – for example – what percentage of hits are converting to sales. Just look at all of the detailed reports you can print (below), and imagine how easy it will be to pinpoint the strengths and weaknesses in your marketing campaign:
Since almost all of these reports go above and beyond the standard “Total Revenues” reports you’ll find elsewhere, you might wonder how we knew which reports would be most valuable to business owners like you. The answer is quite simple: I’ve been in the business of direct marketing for eight years, and when designing AssocTRAC, I could clearly see which reporting features would help ME make better marketing decisions. To this day, whenever I imagine new reports that could help use to better leverage our time, or increase our profits, I continually add them to AssocTRAC. I do it for my own direct benefit – but you get the very same benefit. Don’t get eaten alive because a competitor uses AssocTRAC to dominate your market before you do!

Since it was designed from a marketer’s perspective, you will have a major competitive advantage. Never Find Out “Too Late” That Someone Else Owns Your Associates As you may know, large affiliate networks have also built associate management systems, but there are some major differences. First, they take a big percentage of all the sales generated by your associates. So as you recruit more associates, and generate more sales, you’re writing bigger and bigger checks each month to your associate system provider (ASP)… even though they’re providing the same basic service. Should you really have to pay an ever-increasing penalty as you become more and more successful? Some, for example, charge you $1295 (in setup fees) for the “privilege” of giving up a percentage of your revenue every month… forever! Incredibly, you’re bound to pay them 30% of what you pay your associates. It used to be 20%, but they got greedy and raised it! So if you pay your associates $7.50 for every $25.00 sale (i.e. a 30% commission), you must also pay $2.50 to them. Worse, in order to keep your associate program and all of your associates, you become obligated to pay them a minimum of $250.00 per month – forever – no matter how many sales you make! Using the above example, if your associates generate thirty $25 sales in a month ($750 in total sales) – and you pay out $225 in associate commissions, your obligation to them will not be $67.50 (the standard 30% of what you paid your associates). It’ll be $250 – which is more than you paid your associates – because that’s the monthly minimum! And if you’re paying associates for leads (i.e. visitors they drive to your site who fill out your registration form), you’ll be obligated to pay them a minimum fee of $0.30 per lead. So if you only want to pay associates $0.10 per lead, you can multiply that by four! You
Could Lose Your Entire Sales Force – Absolutely The In spite of what I’ve explained, suppose that you still choose a large affiliate network… or any of the other commission-based ASPs. Now picture yourself six months from now, getting this email from your ASP: “Dear Client, we’ve decided to raise our monthly minimums, along with the size of our commission.” Since large affiliate networks have no qualms about bumping their rates from 20% to 30%, who’s to stop them – or any of their competitors – from repeating this move, and raising their commissions to 40% or higher? Imagine how irritated you’ll feel when this happens. And how you’ll realize, in hindsight, that owning AssocTRAC would’ve made far more sense. After all, all we charge is a flat hosting fee of $47 per month (which I’ll explain in a minute). We never take a percentage of your revenue. Zero. Zip. Nada. At that point, you decide to order AssocTRAC. Unfortunately, when you contact them…. You discover that “your” associates are NOT yours at all. They belong to the affiliate networks. You don’t have their names or email addresses, and they won’t give them to you. This is the hard truth. These large affiliate networks consider your associates to be THEIR associates. And if you ever leave (even if it’s because they raised their fees), you can forget about getting the email addresses of your associates. In short, You’re at the mercy of your ASP… making it impossible to change vendors or switch to AssocTRAC – even if your ASP raises its fees or monthly minimums. And if you do change, all of the time and money you spent recruiting and motivating associates gets flushed down the toilet. Why Let Your Competitors See Your Private Sales Statistics? Here’s one more downside of large affiliate networks. They openly publish the private sales statistics of their clients (i.e. business owners like you). So anyone who joins them as an associate – including your competitors – can see how well your web site converts visitors to commissions, and how much your “average associate” earns per one hundred clicks to your site. Since none of these ASPs charge associates an enrollment fee, anyone can join just to see your sales statistics. Dominate Your Online Market Now – Before A Competitor Does! Now picture this: It’s a three months from today (or a lot sooner), and you’ve quadrupled your online sales – with a lot less effort than you expected. Even better, because AssocTRAC’s has allowed you to create a two-tier program, your associates are actively recruiting new associates for you, and ballooning your revenues exponentially. Now, stop and look back on today. Considering that you’ve now quadrupled your sales, what price tag would’ve made AssocTRAC a good investment? To determine this, I analyzed the profits and earning power of several common home-based businesses, and arrived at the affordable price of $877.
Watch It Multiply Your Profits For 30 Days… Risk-Free Friend, I’m going to make the decision easy for you. Let me send you the software right now, so you can use and evaluate it for the next 30 days.

Go ahead and wow yourself with its breakthrough reporting features. Start signing up new associates, and watching new streams of traffic pour into your Web site. Then, only when you’ve proven to yourself that AssocTRAC will blow your sales through the roof – and you’ve seen how it frees you from all of the management headaches – go ahead and make your “Yes” decision to keep AssocTRAC and continue with the final payments.

Advantages Of Hosting Your Data On Our Dedicated Servers Some people don’t realize that our system requires a full server at $10,000 in hardware, $6,000 per year in hosting bandwidth costs, and over $30,000 per year in modifications and improvements. Not to mention the costs of keeping a constant watch over our servers, keeping them bug-free and virus-free, and keeping your associate program running as smoothly and profitably as humanly possible. Unlike your fallible desktop computer, our servers have given us – and over 70,000 associates – reliable, uninterrupted service every day for the past six years. To maintain this track record, we spare no expenses. Which is why we charge AssocTRAC customers the modest hosting fee of $47 per month. Now please take note: unlike other associate program providers, we NEVER take a percentage of your monthly revenue. And we NEVER require you to meet “monthly minimums”. If you’re already convinced that $47 per month is extremely reasonable for dedicated, uninterrupted service and peace of mind, click here now to skip the next section. If you’re not yet fully convinced, keep reading. Never Lose The Trust Of Your Hard-Won Associates In case you’re wondering why you can’t just install AssocTRAC on your own computer, imagine what would happen if the power went out in your neighborhood, or your computer crashed…. Your associate system would go down too – and your associates would lose their commissions. Believe me, if your associates ever think they’ve been cheated, they’ll abandon you. And worse, your reputation as an “unreliable merchant” will spread through the entire Internet marketing community… making it very difficult to ever rebuild your sales force. If you want to keep the confidence of your associates, this is a risk you can’t afford to take. Trust me. It’s the #1 reason we host AssocTRAC, and all of your crucial data, on our dedicated servers. Unlike your fallible desktop computer, our servers have given us – and over 70,000 associates – reliable, uninterrupted service every day for the past six years. As one of our customers, you can look forward to the same peace of mind. Because we’ve set a new standard in associate management reliability, we stop at nothing to protect this track record. For example, we employ a full-time $60,000 per year system administrator to monitor and maintain our servers. And, we keep a team of administrators on call 24 hours per day… so if anything were ever to go wrong, it would be solved immediately. So you can believe me when I say that the $47 per month hosting fee is dedicated to covering our costs. (Question: if you stored your data at home and your computer crashed at 2 a.m., how long would your angry associates have to wait before they stopped losing commissions? Who would you hire to restore your system?) If you’re now convinced that $47 per month is extremely reasonable for dedicated, uninterrupted service and peace of mind, click here now to skip the next section. If you’re only partially convinced, keep reading. Please know that we DO NOT profit from this fee. The $47 is automatically reinvested into maintaining and upgrading our servers, so that your associate program never goes down, and your associates can have complete confidence in you. Here is a breakdown of exactly how your $47 will be used every month:
You probably rely on a large ISP to host your web site, right? The reasoning is the same: if you kept your site on your own fallible computer, it could crash at any time. Which is why you pay your ISP a hosting fee. For the same reason, you’re much safer hosting your associate database on our dedicated servers. And if you’re at all serious about recruiting associates, believe me, $47 per month will be pocket change compared to the dramatic increase in your sales and profits. Several of AssocTRAC owners are generating over $100,000 per month! Before I go on, consider this endorsement from Patrick Anderson (the CFO of Declan Dunn’s company). Patrick rarely endorses other people’s products, but he’s put his reputation on the line for AssocTRAC…
Never Pay For Updates Or Improvements In his report on Associate Management Software, Ralph Wilson describes AssocTRAC as an A.S.P. (i.e. an associate management system), and he explains: “One of the advantages of ASPs is that the online software gets better and more feature rich without the merchant constantly having to make updates to his own server.” (Note: “the merchant” means you.) This is absolutely true with AssocTRAC. For our own benefit, as well as yours, our programmers provide continuously-improved, feature-rich software – so you can stay completely focused on recruiting associates and growing your business. And having over 60,000 associates ourselves, I know that this fee will be pocket change compared to the money your associates will make you… thanks to our reliable, uninterrupted service. More Advantages Of Hosting Your Data On Our Dedicated Servers As I’ve mentioned, we host AssocTRAC on our servers. This allows you to:
The True Cost Of Commission-Based Programs Think about this for a moment… if you are using an associate program that charges per transaction, you are running just 100 sales a day at $20 each and you are charged 2% on every transaction - you are giving away $40 a day, which is $1200 a month of your hard earned money! Not to mention the initial cost of the software. To say the least, no matter how busy your associate program is, if you are putting through $1,000 or $1,000,000 every month you will still only be charged one very low maintenance fee of $47 when you are using AssocTRAC to manage your associate program. ***
Exciting Announcement -- Newest AssocTRAC 2.5 Like I mentioned earlier, over the past six years we've been continuously updating AssocTRAC's powerful system... adding new features and abilities to help AssocTRAC owners increase their income and sales. However, 6 months ago, it became extremely obvious to me that Associate Programs will play a vital role in the success or failure of many Internet businesses in the coming days, as the "dabblers" are weeded out, and serious competitors like you claim your rightful market share online. So with this in mind, I put together a team of top programmers and worked hand-in-hand with them to add a TON of new features and abilities to this already extremely powerful software!
Today, we're excited to report that these new AssocTRAC features are in place and working beautifully after extensive modifications, additions, and testing, giving all of our AssocTRAC owners an even greater range of abilities including...
... plus much more! Now picture this:
It’s three months from today (or a lot sooner), and you’ve quadrupled
your online sales -- with a lot less effort than you expected.

Let me leave you with something I said in the May issue of my free newsletter called "Internet Marketing Tips". It will illustrate the importance of what Associate Programs are doing online right now: "Ok, the time has come. If you don't get on the Associate Program "bandwagon" now, you are going to be left behind. They are really hot right now, but still in the infancy stage. If you get on now, you will make a ton of money and crush your competitors… if you don't, they will crush you. This is the next business revolution of the Internet… I am not kidding! Be prepared, in the next 12 months, to see some of the biggest names on the Internet get heavily involved in Associate Programs because they are going to finally realize what they are missing. Some have already noticed and have implemented such programs. Getting rich is all about timing… being in the right place at the right time. This is the time and place… don't let this one drive by… I am giving you warning now… this is big and it has the potential to make you a lot of money… so drop whatever you are doing and get an associate program for your product or service." Don't take that lightly, if you do, you will be kicking yourself in the "butt" 12 months from now when you see your competition 10 times the size you are because they got their own Associate Program and you didn't. All the best
Corey Rudl P.S. If you’ve been building an e-commerce
system, you may be wondering when the expenses will end. First you needed
a merchant account… then a secure server… then a shopping cart. And as
soon as you put one component in place, you discover you need another.
This is why you will love AssocTRAC; it’s the one component that will
pay for itself many, many times over. And it’s a complete system; you
will never discover that you’re missing a critical plugin or component! *Important Note: Because AssocTRAC operates with a two-tiered system, the AssocTRAC Software is NOT suitable for most MLM or Network Marketing systems.
