Yes, to New York affiliates cause we love NY

Are you living and working as an affiliate in NY? Are you selling and promoting home and office furniture items? Well you should!

Incase you missed the latest news, NY wants to impose a NY sales tax on shipped items to New York residents via affiliate marketers promoting online merchants. Now what kind of smart idea is that (well perhaps for the pocket of the person or persons who thought of it, I’m sure )

 Incase you have not heard about this new NY tax law yet, feel free to click on the quick links below for more info. However this is mainly currently addressed to New York based affiliates living or doing business in NY.

We don’t like it and glad Amazon is fighting back. I predict Amazon will get their way and the affiliates and merchant will win, otherwise be ready for a big backlash from many merchants, customers and affiliates that will definitely voice their concerns on this in the next few months. There are already a few merchants that panicked such as Overstock which terminated all affiliates since day one. I think it was a bad move on their part as they do not realize affiliates and their other partners are not only perhaps Overstock customers too, but they cut right into affiliates and partners income stream too quick and now those once loyal partners may be telling 10 friends ’stay away from the O’

As an OPM we have been advising and consulting to a few clients to find ways to keep their affiliate partners via tracking, the yahoo cart, scripts or through the networks to find who their affiliate partners are and not to terminate affiliates, cause if you terminate an affiliate just because you don’t want the headache, you might not get them back later.

As for EverythingFurniture stores, at this time all new or existing New York affiliates are welcomed to partner with us and promote all our furniture stores and items via datafeeds, coupons, blogs, etc, as you will not be terminated or removed from our programs.

This includes EverythingFurniture.com, EverythingOfficeFurniture.com or TheFurnitureParadise.comthrough our network partners shareasale.com or performics.com

We are opposed to this unfair NY tax imposed on merchants and NY customers via NY affiliates. As an industry we will voice our concerns to oppose this, but meantime we will stand behind our affiliate partners while solutions are found and you are promoting our furniture stores.

Your Blog Could Use A Coupon Or Two

This is mostly meant for affiliates and bloggers but if you are a merchant reading this, get an idea of what I mean below.

Most coupon sites already know that unless they have a coupon, a link that looks like a coupon, or some type of coupon links or codes for the merchants they are promoting they will NOT get any traffic and NO sales. Unless ofcourse they have those coupons and coupons codes available for their customers.

I won’t get into all the coupon and coupon site details, cause coupon affiliates will kill me for revealing secrets, but if you have a blog you should have some coupons or coupon type links too either on the page that talks about furniture (or other category) or even on the side blogroll or couponroll if you want to call it that. Look below at the ones I created and entered into the deals database for shareasale.com. I created 19 of them that can be entred into any site, blog or coupon site. This is also nothing new for me as I have been successfully creating these types of coupon links for EverythingFurniture for over three years now since I started managing the programs and they do get allot of traffic and sales. ( As a merchant you should have atleast 4-6 of these types of coupon type links, even if you do not want to deal with setting up actual coupon and discount codes)

Now affiliates, bloggers, you don’t need to have all of them displayed as it can depend on the structure of your site, page or blog but customers are always searching and looking for EverythingFurniture ( or other category or brand or merchant ) deals and they do click on those words with ‘Save‘, ‘10% off‘ and others. So if you have a coupon site you probably already have most of our furniture coupons links, or even all of them on your page as most coupons sites already do, but if you have a data feed site, content site or even a blog you should have at least a few of them displayed too, they will drive traffic, click throughs and maybe even sales.
