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.
