Brand Institute Proof of Payment

Well things are looking good for the new Brand Institute VIP program.  Just as promised, third quarter payments came to Paypal (they also will send a check if you prefer) this morning. This was for my referrals having completed only 8 surveys (I talked about how their structure works here).  So as you can see, this program has only upside!

Currently this is the only affiliate network I am aware of that has Global Test Market open for promotion to any country. So whether you have domestic or international traffic, they'd be good to pick up now.

Congratulations to MaxBounty

As my readers of this blog know, I have been very pleased by what I have seen from MaxBounty.

So I wanted to take a moment to congratulate them. I got the following email this morning:

"I am pleased to announce that MaxBounty has just been ranked as one of the top 20 performance marketing networks by Revenue Performance's Online Advertising BlueBook. Revenue Performance, originally named Revenue Magazine, is one of the leading sources of business strategies, innovative marketing methods, effective online advertising techniques and emerging trends in technology for internet marketers. Their Top 20 list is the result of aggregating expert views, traffic data, measures of industry influence and many other pieces of information that they have researched. You can view the full rankings here:
http://bluebook.mthink.com/top20

Considering the performance marketing industry is populated by hundreds of affiliate networks, CPA networks, leads exchanges and co-registration providers, it is a tremendous honor to be ranked in the top 20 alongside such companies as Commission Junction, LinkShare, and MediaTrust.

We like to think that our 5+ years experience as a network, and surviving all the change this industry has seen over those years while many of our competitors fell to the wayside, contributed to our ranking. We also like to think that the high-level of service we provide to our affiliates also helped.

We look forward to working with each of you as we strive to move up the rankings."

I agree! A well-deserved recognition!

Say Nation Proof of Payment

SayNation is becoming one of my favorite survey programs these days. The combination of a great, robust, steady stream of nicely paying surveys combined with an outstanding referral program is great.

I often get 2-5 surveys from them a day. And, currently, if you refer a member and they complete the sign up process you will both get 1,200 points. I tend to cash mine out for Amazon.com gift codes. I have been letting those pile up and plan to use them for holiday shopping.

One came in my email just last night.

If you haven't joined them yet, you can do so here(and my code, if you are so inclined, is 9869885073.

Brand Institute VIP Payment Details

I sent Brand Institute an email a week ago as I had closed out my first quarter with them as a VIP at the end of September. But I couldn't find details on the VIP site about how and when referral earnings are paid. I didn't hear back.

So I gave them a call. They now show payments as processing which they said means we (as in those who are VIPs) should expect payment in the next 1-2 weeks. They will pay via Paypal or Check, whichever you prefer.

I also asked them to clarify payment structures. For each medical professional you refer, you are paid $10 for each survey they take. For each consumer panelist you refer, you are paid $5 for each survey they take.
