Our stance on not dealing with email submits anymore is starting to make the rounds. I’ve seen threads now on PPC-Coach, Wickedfire even Blackhatworld. I’m a member of nearly every community imaginable online, most I rarely engage in conversation with. There aint a whole lot I miss. One post in particular at PPC-Coach caught my attention. Back in my younger days I probably would have retaliated with some ill-thought remark but what’s the point of “e-verbing”?

IS THIS A JOKE? I can’t believe the level of professional this rep portrayed.

First off, I am keen as to what exactly “professionalism” is in this industry?

Is it owning a CPA Network, coming into the office whenever you feel like it and checking in on your Affiliate Managers to see if they are offering the best payouts or telling their publishers that they want to see volume before giving them a pay bump?

If that’s Professionalism, I gladly flush it down the toilet.

Is owning a CPA Network and not giving input on how publishers can increase their revenue and overall business professional?

If that’s Professionalism, publishers are ultimately working with people who arent going to increase their bottom lines in the fastest manner possible. That’s a choice you make. I know when I was publishing that I was looking for every tip I could get and it mostly came from people “hired” as managers with zero marketing experience.

Is owning a CPA Network the thought of sugar coating the truth, allowing bullshit to keep running which just causes their publishers to not maximize their ROI and take away from the network itself?

If that’s Professionalism, it will only allow our network to grow that much faster because we dont do it.

The fact is this. Email Submits are volatile. Publishers and Networks get scrubbed, shaved, told their traffic sucks without proof, and not to mention non payments. My act of “unprofessionalism” in stating these facts most likely saved you a ton of money. If my wording offended you then most likely you have not been a publisher long enough to get to know Convert2Media.

We are not going to sit around for a couple of months and milk it (so to speak). Bottom line is that our “unprofessionalism” allows us to double in revenue and publisher growth each month. Publishers who work with us know and understand we arent going to give you something that is crap. Why would we? If you dont make money, we dont make money. Plain and simple.

We work with advertisers, we work with networks and we work with publishers. We want to deliver quality leads to the merchants and networks and we want to show publishers how to do it. We want to go beyond quality expectations with advertisers and we want to serve publishers the way they are supposed to be served and that THEY are the ones that make the wheels turn FOR networks, NOT the other way around.

Being unprofessional is something I dont think about.

Being truthful, upfront and honest is the LEAST we can do helping others manage their business.

If we have to cut a few softies in the path, so be it. We serve it gladly.
