Affiliate Program:

Here's an easy way to generate passive income for you or your organization.

The BE THE MEDIA Affiliate program pays you a commission for every book you sell.

The program is available to everyone - individuals, groups, web developers, bloggers, and "for-profit" or "non-profit" organizations.

It is modeled after the extremely successful Amazon Associates program, started in 1996 by the world's largest book reseller, Amazon.com. Over 50% of Amazon’s revenues come from their Associates - people just like you and me - who put their favorite books up on their web sites or blogs with a link back to Amazon.com.

Amazon Associates earn a commission for every sale that comes from their site.

BE THE MEDIA Affiliates give subscribers a relevant, useful and timely book, promote media justice, and earn money to build capacity and do more outreach - all at the same time!

Our Affiliate Toolkit provides everything you need for a successful promotion.

Our eye-catching banners, logos, graphics, and advertisements will get a prospect's attention, and help you sell more books.

Simply cut-and-paste the links and code from the Affiliate Toolkit into emails, on your web site and/or blog.

To optimize your return, use the Affiliate Toolkit to review statistics and detailed data on your program.

Track and analyze different campaigns, ads, and banners to improve results.

Terms and Conditions:

1. Participation: The program is available to everyone - individuals, groups, web developers, bloggers, and "for-profit" or "non-profit" organizations (501c3 or 501c4). There are no fees of any kind in applying for or participating in the Affiliate program.
2. Promotions:
    
   • Email: We create emails that you send to your list 2-3 times over the campaign. Alternatively, include our copy in your existing newsletters or email updates. With your audience in mind, we personalize the message and modify subsequent copy based on feedback, number of sales, or other parameters, to help guarantee a successful promotion. We include the book cover image with an embedded link to a secure site for BE THE MEDIA book purchases.
      
   • Web site/Blog: You place our links, graphics, and promotional copy on your web site or blog. Clicking on the links or images will take customers to a secure site to purchase BE THE MEDIA, and credits you or your organization for the referral.
      
   • Affiliate tracking: Our system (1shoppingcart.com) accepts all major credit cards and PayPal. It uses affiliate software to track purchases from your blog, web site and emails, so you can be properly credited and paid. We do all the work - billing, packing, shipping, handling, delivery, and returns. You collect commission checks.
3. Pricing and Timing*: The list price of the book is $34.95. The publication date is September 1, 2008. Advance sales affiliate opportunities are available now.
