wierd question about using clickbank as a publisher...

    i know alot of people use clickbank to sell ebooks etc.... im still kind of new on this affiliate marketing stuff, but iam looking to be the seller (publisher)... my interest is not to sell ebooks, but what iam trying to do is have people fill out a form and basically they will send in a fee to me and whoever is promoting it will get a commission of course....

    so i know this is confusing? let me summarize what im doing a bit without saying exactly what my business is.... i need affiliates to help look for potential applicants which fill out their information and submit their registration fees..once they submit, the affiliates will get their commissions.

    Is that possible?... and if so, lets say i charge $50 per applicant, how much would clickbank take off of it? and is there any type of special/hidden fees other then their small percentage they take? (and of course i know there will be comm for the affiliate, but im unsure of hidden fees of clickbank etc).

    THANK YOU in advanced guys.

    btw, i know this post may sound crazy for people actually submitting forms and wanting to pay..but trust me, i have an actual business (not online) where people do that, but im looking to expand my market by affiliates. thanks again

    Or you could provide the form as a pdf/word doc download after they pay their fees, along with the rest of the links/info they need, where to send it etc.

    Although for curiosity's sake...what exactly is so attractive about this form that people pay to fill it out?.

    Agreed sounds like your after CPA as opposed to anything that clickbank can do for you.

    yea, i was thinking of having them download the form after they submit payment...but wouldnt there be some type of loophole where they can download the form without paying? well it doesnt matter too much anyways if they do, i have personalized information where it requires them to show proof of payment when we call them.

    As for what is so attractive about this form.....um, well without giving out what im doing exactly.... they want to apply because it will help them in their carreer towards the future and possibly more ;)

    so some of you are saying clickbank wont help or not what im looking for? all i want to do is have people help me get these potential applicants (i know for sure they will apply and its a money well to be tapped, i get them to apply myself for 3 yrs in a row now, and its always been successful). So once they fill out that app then we both get the money.... and i dont want to deal with the headache of sending out the checks etc to different affiliates, otherwise i would of used like idevaffiliate or post affiliate pro scripts.... so i want a company that can do all that processing, check sending etc for me..any other recommendations other then click bank? thank you all.
