FAQ:
HOW DOES IT WORK?
How does the
Affiliate Program work?
You make money by referring customers from your website or emails
to RichardFlint.com. First you create links from your website or
emails to RichardFLint.com. Creating links is VERY EASY because
we provide you with banner ad links, text links and other marketing
assistance in our Marketing Tools. No special computer knowledge
is necessary. When any visitor to your site or friends
reading emails you have sent them purchase products at RichardFLint.com
through your unique URL, we keep track of how much revenue you've
generated, and we pay you a commission. Does that sound simple and
easy? It is!
Is there any
cost to becoming an Affiliate?
No. There are no fees associated with being a RichardFlint.com Affiliate.
How old do
I have to be?
The minimum age for Affiliates is 18 years old.
Who keeps track
of the sales generated by you?
We do that for you, too! You can log in to our Affiliate Log anytime
and see how much commissions you've earned. Your new affiliates
only have to fill out a simple form to register. Once they do, they
can be referring and selling Richard Flint products in minutes.
Plus once they've registered, they'll immediately get a confirming
email with a unique User ID and password that is generated by the
system, so you don’t need to do anything for them.
Plus you can
track sales for all your affiliates in real time:
You and your referred affiliates can login in and earnings as often
as you/they want at our affiliate login page. From there, they can
check their stats, update their records, get help, change passwords
or even download latest banners.
How do I get
started?

Affiliate Sign-up Page. Fill out the information and click on the
link to the Affiliate Contract. Be sure to read through the contract
and acknowledge that you agreeto it. Then submit your application.
It's that easy!
What is your
policy for accepting applicants?

FAQ - THE AFFILIATE RELATIONSHIP
What exactly
is an Affiliate?
We're proud of our relationship with each of our Affiliates, and
encourage them to download our ad banners and build links to our
site. When you become an Affiliate, you'll want to mention that
your site is "an Affiliate of RichardFlint.com." For legal
reasons we ask that you do not say that you "work for RichardFlint.com"
or are "part of RichardFlint.com." This could lead to
confusion over issues like sales tax collection, so for a variety
of legal reasons, it's important that the Affiliate relationship
be accurately described on your site and in your comunications.
What is RichardFlint.com's
responsibility?
We'll provide you with the tools and assistance you need to successfully
partner with us. We process, fill and ship your referral's purchases,
and take care of customer service. We track the orders referred
by your unique URL and pay you a commission on each purchase.
Can I take
an order on my site and just send the information to RichardFlint.com?
No. Due to constantly changing inventory, fluctuating prices and
the nature of our order processing procedures, it's more efficient
and avoids confusion if we process and fill orders directly through
RichardFlint.com.
Will RichardFlint.com
promote my site?
While we wish you the best in your online endeavors, we are unable
to promote our Affiliates' sites. We will, however, provide you
with all the tools and graphics you need and give you online marketing
suggestions to help make your site a success.
Can Affiliates
also have links to other sites in addition to RichardFlint.com?
Yes. We do not require that you have an exclusive relationship with
us.
Terminating the
Affiliate relationship
RichardFlint.com and the Affiliate are free to terminate the relationship
at any time for any reason. If you decide that you no longer want
to be an Affiliate, just notify us at support@richardflint.com

FAQ
- RECEIVING YOUR COMMISSIONS
How do I get
credit for referring a customer to RichardFlint.com?
In order to earn a commission, a customer must click on your link(
or manually enter it into the address bar) to RichardFLint.com and
make a purchase. For example, if a customer visits your site, clicks
on a link to RichardFLint.com or leaves to visit another site, then
later returns and makes a purchase, you will still get a commission
for that sale.
Also, be sure
that you use links created only by our system, otherwise
you may not get credit for referring customers to our site. For
example, if you just surf our site and copy the URLs to pages you
want to link to, those links won't have the special tags that enable
us to track your referrals. Links that you create using the Affiliate
URL Link not only take your visitor to products on our site, but
they also tell us that you're the Affiliate who sent them to us.
The links must be created through the affiliate section of our site.
How much will
I be paid?
You will be paid 15% of the total merchandise sold through our online
store to customers who come to RichardFLint.com by clicking on your
unique URL link (which includes your ID). We calculate the amount
of sales you refer to us on merchandise from the online store only.
Tax, postage and handling are not included when calculating your
commission.
We will pay you a 15%
commission on everything your visitors orders when they come to
RichardFlint.com by clicking on your unique URL link. For example,
suppose your favorite audio set is “No Limits”. You
could tell your contacts how terrific it is and link to it on our
site, through your unique URL. Now let's say that one of your visitors
clicks on your Richard Flint Banner ad link on your website or off
an email you have sent comes to our site, browses around and ends
up buying “No Limits” for $69.00, a video, and a couple
of books. If their order came to $180, we'd pay you a fee of $27.00.
When and how
will I receive my commissions?
We pay our Affiliates monthly in U.S. Funds. At the end of month,
we let our accounting department know how much you have earned for
the month and they will pay you through Paypal.com by
emailing you the money on or before the 5th of the following month.
Can I keep
track of how much I am earning?
Yes. You can log into the Affiliate Tracking anytime to view your
earnings.
Do I have to
meet a quota in order to earn commissions?
NO Quotas. Our minimum cumulative commission to be paid is $25.
It will carry forward until a total of $25 or more is accumulated
then paid out via Paypal.
Which RichardFlint.com
products qualify for a commissions?
All the merchandise (audios, videos, CD’s, planners) sold
in the online store qualifies for commissions. We do not pay commissions
on Coaching, Seminars or StarMaker Events unless specified in a
special promotional announcement specifically stating commissions
to be paid. In addition, we do not pay commission on shipping and
handling, tax and duties.
Will I receive
a commission for my personal orders I place?
Yes. You can shop for yourself and purchase gifts for your family
and friends at our low discount prices and earn a commission, too!
Make sure your order through your unique URL link.
What if one of
the customers I referred returns their order?
If a customer that you referred to us returns merchandise, we'll
deduct the 15% commission previously paid from your next commission
run. If you do not earn a commission during the next month, we reserve
the right to bill you for 15% of the returned merchandise at the
end of that month.
