That affiliate won’t push my scheme

Tough, affiliates have minds of their own, and will push what makes them money. If you pay crap commission, your conversion is in the gutter and you don’t give them any incentive what so ever what do you expect? The world? As if! If you want someone to be nice to you, be nice to them. Kiss some butt and give them free stuff. Or write the copy for them, tell them your promotions. Affiliates are busy people who often have day jobs as well as many websites to maintain. If you got off your lazy ass and set up some websites on your own, you would probably realise. These things take time and money to maintain, so it has to be worth their while.
