TripleClicks ECA program which was started in 2009, is in the top 1,800 sites as per Alexa carts...getting worldwide traffic. It is growing very rapidly with over 6,000 registered ECAs already - and more are being added each day. TC gets millions of people visiting it annually. It is totally free to join and all the hard admin and accounting work is taken care of by TC - absolutely free. The only costs involved are when a product sells TC takes a 15% commission only on the item/s sold.
There are millions of businesses out there all over the globe, who would like to have online presence - we just have to find them and hook them up with TC.
As soon as an ECA joins, TC gives them their very own, personalized website to add all their products in. SFI has over a million Affiliates,in over 190 countries around the world - so by joining up with TC as an ECA - the ECA gets immediate exposure and help in advertising their ECA store. All this is done for the ECA for FREE!!!
An Affiliate also enjoys the benefits of joining ECAs into his/her network - by way of commissions on all sales that go through the ECAs business - for the life of the business. Not a bad deal at all!!!
Direct Commissions and the ECA Royalties can earn a Sponsoring Affiliate upto 55% of Commission Value on sales generated. Buying from ECAs that have been personally sponsored by you will give you "rebates" on those purchases.
ECAs can offer "Will Call" services, by which local Affiliates can pick up the goods they order directly from the ECA and save on shipping and handling charges. ECAs can also choose where all they wish to sell. If they only wish to sell locally, so be it. However, if they choose to sell globally all over, the world is their Oyster.
Basically the kind of ECAs we look for are established, well-reputed companies, that provide quality non-controversial goods and services. These companies must have appropriate refund or return policies and must stand behind their products.
