    Hi,

    I run the affiliate program for AmericanCell.com - we pay $35-50 per cell phone plan. We have recruited about 250 affiliates so far and are happy with the sales they are bringing us.

    In addition to our current efforts we are interested in partnering with other successful affiliate programs selling electronics and gadgets of any kind. We are not interested in working with anything adult, gambling, MLM, drugs, or other annoyances. Our idea is to get our affiliates to join your program and vice versa. That way each of us can benefit from the pool of affiliates that the other has created.

    Anyone running a successful affiliate program who would like to cross-promote each other's programs please PM me.

    Regards,
    Steve Shochet

    i think you should advertise / post links / submit to affiliate directories out there. I'm sure it will be a booster to your affiliate program.

    Thanks, I appreciate your advice. You are probably right we have to do more of the methods you mentioned. But here I am referring to a different approach to growing affiliate programs via cross-promotions, perhaps, I wasn't clear enough.
    In our case, we already have pre-qualified, active and successful affiliates that we would like to encourage to join other affiliate programs.In turn, these cooperating affiliate programs would recommend our cell phone plan affiliate program to their own affiliates.
    In other words, we are interested in partnering with other successful affiliate programs selling electronics and gadgets so we can all benefit from the pool of affiliates that the other has created.
    Anyone running a successful affiliate program who would like to cross-promote each other's programs please feel free to PM me.
    regards,

    Affiliate program cross promotion can be fairly effective. I've done it quite a bit with some of my merchant clients in the past. It works best with programs that are related and complimentary. One problem though is most affiliate managers have done cross promos in monthly newsletters. Many affiliates don't read their newsletters.

    We are looking for affiliate programs in related fields like electronics and gadgets that are interested in partnering with us. Cross-promoting is a great way to benefit from qualified affiliates. Feel free to PM me if you run a successful affiliate program and want to grow it even more.

    Hi Steve,

    I run a rapidly growing toolbar advertising exchange called the Free Traffic Bar.

    The exchange has a 50% commission affiliate program. This would be a great place for your affiliates to promote your program while you earn commissions from any of your affiliates who upgrade and purchase additional credits.

    You can contact me via email at or by phone toll free in North America at 1-866-413-0951 to discuss this further.
