Moving Our Forum to AffSpot and New Merchant Announcement

[7 Days Ron]

Three Big Announcements:

First, the time has come to officially announce that we are moving our 7 Days A Week Marketing OPM forum here to AffSpot. We are thrilled to be here and look forward to a long and positive relationship with all the AffSpot participants as well as all the great opportunities that AffSpot offers everyone in this business. Thank you AffSpot for this great forum.

Second, please welcome Amy here at AffSpot, a member of our team who has worked behind the scenes for some time now and has been so helpful to our program it is time to bring her out into the limelight here at AffSpot where she can help affiliates here as well.

Third, and this may really be our BIG announcement of the day, we are very excited to announce our newest merchant, Home Gallery Stores, which will soon have their own sub forum under the Shareasale area here at AffSpot, which I will link to here when it is ready.

Home Gallery Program Details:

* Commission: 8% on ALL furniture products, not just a few selected categories like some merchants
* Datafeed: (16,000 products and rising)
* PopShops: Yes, datafeed designed with PopShops in mind
* Return cookies: 120 days
* Phone tracking: Very soon - tech staff’s next priority
* Auto approval: Yes for US affiliates
* Auto deposit: Yes
* ShareASale-exclusive
* Sales track across all stores to a single shopping cart program
* $80.00 Kick Off Bonus for first affiliate to reach $8,000 in sales (for sales starting as of Sept. 16)

Merchant Information:

Home Gallery Stores has been in the furniture business since 1913 and through their years of business with the top manufactures is able to offer deep discounts which they now pass on to their internet customers. They guarantee customer satisfaction and stand by it with a money back guarantee. Most merchants make almost a double over their cost. HG stores margin is only a fraction over cost, with average sales over $2,000.00 (pre affiliate program sales average). Via the web they are now able to offer a variety of category specific home furnishing stores. The following is our first offering of stores with several more being launched over the next few months. Individualized banners in a variety of sizes are available for each store and the SAS datafeed includes data in all of the five custom categories to help you further break out specific products.

www.HomeGalleryBeds.com
www.TheChinaCabinetStore.com
www.TheHomeBarStore.com

www.TheSleighBedStore.com

Don’t be alarmed by the highly visible phone number. Customers rarely buy thousands of dollars in furniture on-line without speaking to a real person. Phone support at Home Gallery Stores is specifically there to help guide the customer through the on-line sale and rarely are any orders taken over the phone. But for when they do, we’ll soon have the phone tracking number on every page of the site. HG Stores wants to reward you for every sale you drive to their sites.

UPDATED: We just added a sub form for Home Gallery Stores under the Shareasale forum, so I'm adding this message asking thatwe continue the new merchant announcement and conversation about that here.

I'd guess it was moved here from where it was, but then again that's like one of my all-time favorite lines:

Wherever you find yourself, that's where you are.

Waxing philosophical, it isn't where we've been that's important, or even where we now are, it's where we're going that counts.

Scott,

We were over at ABW before this. Could not fit everthing in the moving truck so we decided on fresh shart here at AffSpot.

Hi Ron,

Nice to have you here, weclome and LOVE this site - www.thesleighbedstore.com actually all of them are well done.. Congrats!

[Pink Dragon]

Home Gallery seems like a great program. Thank you very much for the phone tracking! I'm working on a new site, and I think it'll be a good fit. Looking forward to working with you Ron.

So glad to see its all here now Ron since this is where I mainly visit now. Congrats on the new store, looking forward to working with you on that too.

[7 Days Ron]

Thanks all for the warm wishes and the welcome for our forum.

Heather - Thanks, coming from you, whom I truly respect in this business, I appreciate the kind words.

Pink Dragon - I look forward to working with you. Let me know any time if there is anything you need.

Cindy - Always a pleasure working with you. Yes, it is great to be here. Sometimes feels more like family than business, what a great group of folks here.

Marcia - " it's where we're going that counts" - You could not be more right. Where we have been teaches us how to move forwards and how to appreciate what we have now. This will be an exciting time here at AffSpot and I'm looking forward to being a part of it. I'm especially appreciative of the admins here for asking me to be a moderator here early in the game and look forward to helping in that role as well.
