Revshare with Trials

[[BV]]

The trial no trial is one of those topics that's impossible for everyone to agree on.

Because of this we coded our script to allow affiliates to turn trials on or off with one click as well as choose their own price points for the trial as well as the monthly fee. (Changing their linking codes is not required) :-) All done in their own admin area with one click for each site.

IMO and personal preference & BVCash default settings; If you run a trial it should be a relatively expensive one. For me I've found that magic number to be $7.95 :-)

Hmmm? Great idea on the script! So are you saying that you offer the trials, affiliates can pick them if they choose, any price, nice idea...But it still seams like most people here said that they don't prefer "rev-share" on trials. You must be offering PPS on these trials then?

I guess the important question I could ask you then are more affiliates using your trials or not?

We strictly follow the 3rd party payout revshare model.

The Revshare/PPS argument is another topic no one can agree on which is best. I am a firm believer in revshare and when I promote another program I always choose revshare. I feel it makes more business sense.

I can't give you exact numbers but I can say that my top affiliates all use different strategies. Some with cheap trial and higher monthly rebill some with no trial and a cheaper monthly. Exactly why I wanted our script to allow flexibility like that. My philosophy is you can't make everyone happy all of the time but you can at least try.
