SJG E Commerce: we give you a window to the world

		SJG E Commerce Solutions gives you Affiliate Marketing

SJG Affiliate Marketing Solutions

SJGe designed sites come with optional Affiliate Marketing Solutions & Advertising. Both services are also, optionally, linked to the SJGe web ring. Adding affiliate marketing to a site is one of the most effective ways to achieve more sales and more traffic!

In the simplest form, affiliate marketing allows a website owner to 'sign up' to your scheme:

the website owner can create his own account and choose himself how much and what type of 'adverts' for your site he wants to display
when the website sends you a customer you would pay on a per new visitor basis [pay per click] or pay the website owner a commission if a sales results

Multiple variations - including far more complex! - of the above can be implemented

Choose Any or All Payout Styles

Pay-Per-Sale (Percentage)

Pay-Per-Sale (Flat Rate Payout)

Pay-Per-Click (Unique Visitors Only)

Create up to 100 payout levels for each payout style

Payout styles and levels adjustable per affiliate

Affiliates can choose their payout style

Change individual accounts - payout styles, levels, etc

Block payout styles from individual affiliates

Payout Levels

By using percentage payouts, you can create unlimited payout levels that are adjustable for each affiliate. Example: Let's say you have 2 affiliates and you want to pay Affiliate A 20% of each sale but you want to pay Affiliate B 30%. You would create 2 different payout levels (Level 1 - 20% & Level 2 - 30%). Level 1 will always be the default payout level for new affiliates. If you want to increase an affiliates payout level, simply edit the affiliate account in the admin centre and change their payout level to Level 2

2nd Tier Affiliates

Your current affiliates can promote your affiliate program to other webmasters. They will become the "top-tier" for any new affiliates they get to signup and will earn a percentage of each sale the 2nd tier affiliate generates. The amount to pay the top tier affiliate is a percentage amount adjustable in the admin centre

Payout Examples

Let's assume you have 2 payout levels (25% & 30%) and your 2nd tier payout is set at 10%.
The following chart shows the commission payout depending on which affiliate generates a sale.
