Repeat Customers are kicking In some major cash flow!
I have been selling Rx online for four years now. I exclusively use 4Rx as my parent Affiliate for Meds.
My number-one criteria in all business relationships is T-R-U-S-T. Without trust in your parent affiliate, it will be very difficult to succeed in the long haul. Loyalty is a two-way street, and I know that I will receive all my commissions on time all the time. I pay this back in my 100% loyalty to 4Rx. Keep this in mind: repeat business is a great way to increase and stabilize your affiliate income.
As your sites and campaigns rise and fall in success and ranking, repeat business commissions are key to keeping the income flowing! 4Rx pays commissions for the life of the customer- I have people coming back two, three, or even four times a year. In some months, repeat bsuiness is 20% of my sales.
Best of luck to you in your endeavors.

Wow repeat business 20% of sales. For me repeat business is sometimes up to 80% of sales.
hi,
to calculate repeat business you have to look at the total amount of orders sent for a specific time frame and then see how many re-orders you got for the same time.
I am not saying that drugsdr doesn't have a 80% re-orders, but there are many factors to consider such as how long has he been sending traffic to the same source, is he still sending traffic, how many sales/day is he getting.
To compare re-orders you have to have the same parameters.
ex: I sent traffic to an OP for 6 months... and now I am no longer... I am getting 2 re-orders/week from my old customers but only 1 real order from legacy traffic... that means that I have a 200% re-order rate...
OR
I am sending traffic to a source for the past year, doing a steady amount of orders that average 360 pills of finasteride... these people will only re-order in 1 year... So i will have to wait that time to see my rewal re-order ratio.
So you can't just take 1 week or one month...you have to look at the overall picture.
does this make sense?
regards,
Sam
Been trickling in orders since 2005 with this crowd.
I recently joked to someone I wouldn't move companies for $100,000 sign-up bonus. There are few reliable non-controlled companies that have been around for 3-6 years now. Why anybody would move from them to a newer company without a proven track record I don't know.
For people new to the industry it's probably doesn't make a difference.
It's always a wise idea to place a couple "test" orders into every company you work with with unique email addresses not used for anything else. So long as you don't get re-order solicitations on this email address you are pretty safe.
The moment you get re-order requests from unknown sources on this address all the customers you have sent to that company are now worthless as they details will be sold countless times and will be spammed to hell.
I've heard of customers changing email addresses and even home phone numbers because their details got traded, spammers continually spammed and call-centers harassed people up to 6 times a day to re-order medications. These people probably will never buy anything else online for the rest of their life let alone visit your site again for a re-order.
As for 4rx, I've never used them and don't have an opinion. They're probably pretty good on re-order honestly. I'm sure some whistle-blower would have come told us here if there where any problems with re-orders.
I've only read good things about 4rx and they are first on my list if something happens to US based affiliates. The only problem I have with 4rx is the shipping time.

We have been very happy with 4RX for a long time since the beginning in fact, but we dont seem to be able to reconcile payments with what is in admin since mid this year.
Must catch up with Sam again.

give us a shot ?
hi clive...
i am always available to my affiliates, especially the ones I consider also to be friends...
your payments, like all other, have been sent and none were missed, I can assure you of that.
I got your email and I replied to it... but it seems I was not clear enough.
Will re send and when you are clear with the numbers i hope you'll consider re-posting here...
always a pleasure,
With 4rx my re-order rate is around +30%. 4rx has always been good to me with ontime payments. They have never a stolen re-order & great affiliate manager customer service.
By the way Sam.. The new software, man, It kicks ass. I like seeing a program constantly improving for us the affiliates!
Keep up the great work fellas!
