INTRODUCING...FLIPS AND SUPER DEALS!
We've just added a very cool new feature to Pricebenders
(http://www.tripleclicks.com/indexAuctions.php) that we think you're
going to love. We call them "Flips," and here's how it works:
For most auctions of physical goods, you'll now have a new option
each time you win...to put the item you've won up for immediate sale at
TripleClicks for CASH!
* Your only cost to "flip your win" is the price you won the auction
for plus a nominal $3.50 processing fee to cover our costs to sell the
item for you.
* You set the price for what your item sells for--to up to 70% of the MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price).
* When the item sells, we deposit the proceeds into your TC Member account. That's it!
Example: You win a Chromebook laptop computer (MSRP $200) for just
$20 (including the cost of your bids). You set the selling price at
$129--which is a fantastic price for the customer. Upon the sale, you
just made $105.50 in cash! ($129--$20 cost of win--$3.50 processing fee)
-----------------------------------------
Flips = Super Deals!
With the debut of Flips, we'll also simultaneously be introducing a
new "SUPER DEALS" section to sell flipped items--featured both at
TripleClicks and on the TC tab at the Affiliate Center.
What makes them"super deals?" Because every item in this new section
will be at least 70 percent off the MSRP, and most will offer a MUCH
greater savings. Why? Because when someone wins a Pricebenders auction
for a really low price (which is typical), they're naturally going to be
inclined to "price it to sell!"
Indeed, we expect Super Deals to regularly feature deals that no
other e-commerce site in the world will be able to match! Brand new
electronics, appliances, and and numerous other great products at a
whopping 50 percent off the regular retail price? Yes! 60 percent off?
70 percent off...or more? YES!
PLUS, every Super Deal automatically comes with...
* 50 MRP
* 200 VersaPoints (SFI affiliates only)
* 20 bonus TCredits (if the item isn't already bundled with TCredits) (non-SFI affiliates only)
Marketing Super Deals
It will take a few days to generate an ample stock of Super Deals,
but once we have, it's time to begin a new chapter in customer referrals
and sales for SFI affiliates! As stated above, Flips are going to allow
us to have deals at TripleClicks on great, new, name-brand
products...at prices possibly no other site (or offline store) will be
able to touch. And this, of course, creates an amazing opportunity for
our affiliates to attract customers and generate sales like never
before!
To support this important new development, we will be coming out
soon with special training and marketing aids just for Super Deals. But
for those who are ready to hit the ground running right now, affiliate
links are already in place for you; just grab the Affiliate Link from
the SFI Toolbox from the product details page of any Super Deal and
start promoting it!

YOUR AFFILIATE WEEKLY TIP
By running your own contest concurrently with the monthly SFI
UNSTOPPABLE contest (https://www.sfimg.com/Home?tab=win_it), you can
easily grow your group and encourage more activity in your downline.
While we're running OUR corporate contest, you can be running, at
the same time, YOUR contest with your own prizes and recognition. In
doing so, you'll help us get more people involved in our contest...and
we'll help you get more of your members active and in yours! Meanwhile,
everyone entering gets more opportunities to win prizes and recognition.
An awesome win/win/win for all!
At the end of each month (after commissions are processed), SFI
publishes a list of the top 100 finishers. We therefore recommend that
you design your contest to award prizes/recognition for coming in first,
second, third...and/or in the top 10, top 20, top 50, and/or top 100.
Creating your own contest is fun and easy. Just go to the Rewards
& Incentives Manager
(https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/LeadershipManager?tab=rewards) at your
Leadership Page and fill in the appropriate fields. Simple!
