Dealing with merchants

again.  If they still aren't responding, you should

affiliates will actually meet it.  This isn't a

Communication

When you communicate with merchants, you should 

ensure that you use a professional tone. If you

have suggestions of how a merchant can improve their

offers, you should let them know.  Many merchants

appreciate feedback, and know that any feedback they

receive can improve their programs.

are hard to find and will treat them with respect, 

assist with resources, and be prompt with payments.

that merchants want quality promotion and sales

performance.  

To get the most out of your partnership, you should

always be professional and understanding with your

merchant.  Good merchants are always busy, which may

will answer your questions and emails, although it

may take them a little bit of time.  

The longer you work with a merchant, the more you'll

understand how they do things.  If you are just 

starting out in affiliate marketing, a merchant

can help you understand how things work.  If you

listen to them and show initiative, you'll be 

well on your way to making it to the top.
