Our whole site is basically designed to help you get a phone number that makes you money by increasing the response rate to your advertising.  We also want go one step further and pay you for linking to our site and telling other people about our service too.  I know many customers want to link to us and telling their friends about our service because it really is a helpful and valuable service, regardless of whether we’re paying them.  We appreciate that but we don’t put much money into regular advertising because we really want to send that money back to you instead.

We have two separate programs to pay you for referring people to our service.  The referral program is designed for new customers in the first 30 days.  It’s easier and simpler for most people and is designed to let anyone get their number for free just for telling some other people about it.  The affiliate program is designed for telecom agents and anyone with ongoing referrals. They are both very worthwhile, especially since our service is so unique and such a great value.  We would rather give you the credit than put it into the expensive pay per click advertising that everyone else uses.  This is the slow way to grow but satisfied customer are definitely the best advertising.  That’s why we try so hard to help our customers and we really want to give you the appropriate credit to repay the people who are helping us.  That’s what this promotion is all about.  So please let us pay you!

This is the place for telecom agents and related services
or website owners to start!

You’ll get a 10% commission on any sales that come from your website or that enter your affiliate ID number, or that say they’re referred by you in the comments field of the order form.  High volume referrers and telecom agents may qualify to receive slightly higher commissions.

The affiliate program pays you a commission check, monthly whenever your commissions reach the $25 minimum payment.  Telecom agents also have the option to receive their ongoing commissions via gift certificates in increments of $50.  This allows anyone in a company that frowns on their agents from receiving commissions to still get credit for their sales.  They can use the card or give it to anyone they want.  We want to reward the people that send us business without causing any problems or concerns within their organization. 

This is real a win win win, for the customer who gets a better number faster and easier, your company that sells more service and for you because you have less work and receive a commission too.  The affiliate program doesn’t pay commissions on sales for the 1st 30 days after a sale, so that it doesn’t overlap with the 1st 3 customers referral program.

You can participate with our $50 Referral Bonus without filling out anything online.  But you need to fill out the registration form online to participate in the ongoing affiliate program.  You need to fill out the registration form so that we know who to make the checks out to and where to send them.

Your information in the affiliate program is TOTALLY confidential.  Not only do we not sell or share it with anyone else, we don’t even use it internally except for specifically affiliate related activities.  So even if you’re not expecting to make hundreds of sales, give it a try and let us pay you.

You don’t need a website or to put up a link to participate but if you have or are building a website, that’s the best way to get credit for your referrals since it doesn’t require the visitor to do anything to make sure you get credit for the sale.  We have a variety of banners, buttons and links already prepared.  Take a look at our Sample Links to get the codes for them.  You’re also not limited to those links.  If you have an idea for something different, ask us and we may be able to make or approve special buttons or links for you.  We really want to make this profitable and helpful for you.

You can also just give out your discount number.  When people check out there is a place to enter a discount number.  This gives the user a $2.00 discount but more importantly, it gives you credit for the sale.  It’s basically a way to get the visitor to do the tracking for you.

There are three ways to track your sales.  You can use the affiliate link which will automatically give you credit for sales to anyone that clicked on your link.  It doesn’t require the visitor to enter or remember anything.  But it can be bypassed if they block cookies or if they use a different computer. 

That’s why we set up the “discount code” option to allow visitors to give people an incentive to keep track of your referral.  That is also important for telephone representatives that are usually talking with prospects on the phone and don’t usually have a web page to refer them to.  This way you can still get credit for a sale and we can give the visitor your resporg form to switch them over to your carrier for the ongoing use. 

The third option is simply if someone says that you sent them in the comments section.  This is less reliable since it’s not automatic, but we do that as a backup.  It’s usually used in conjunction with the other two methods.  They don’t need to know your affiliate ID, but they do need your name the same way you registered it with us.

Once you sign up it’s very easy to use the system.  All you need to do is give out your Affiliate Code as your “Discount Code” and the customers will save $2 if they enter your code.  That will also give you the credit for the sale too.  You can also use the following link with your affiliate number in place of the bold number

http://www.tollfreenumbers.com/cmd.php?af=336339&u=www.tollfreenumbers.com

You can change the end of the link if you want to, after the u= in order to send the visitors to a specific page on our site.  That is especially important for the keyword section.  It will show the visitors relevant results right on the landing page as well as giving them the search tools for additional searches. We have built the Discount Code concept into our whole ordering system so that you can refer visitors without sending them to a link or relying on cookies.  You can give that to a client over the phone or in their office and know that we’ll give them the appropriate paperwork and give you credit for the sale.  We want to be your outsourced vanity number department.

Our goal is to make this as profitable as possible for you.  First of all, it’s very important that whatever you do fit in with your website or service.

• The most important tip is to write out and include your personal experience and story.  Your own experience is interesting to your readers and adds credibility. 
• Banners are nice, but use a text link inside the body of your site too.
• Even if you use the affiliate link, you should give out your discount number and tell them to mention that you sent them, even if you have a tracking link so you’ll get the credit even if they use a different computer or block cookies.  It’s not necessary to use all three, but this way even if they purchase from a different computer then they used the first time or if they block cookies, you’ll still get credit.
• You don’t have to link to the home page.  Try linking to a page in the keyword section that relates to your business.  It will be more relevant to your visitors.
• List it in more than one place if you have a bigger site.
• You can give out our ebook Phone Numbers that Make Money.
• Promote this to your telecom agent if you have one and if they didn’t send you here, because if they start sending people here you’ll get 3% of their referrals too and that can add up.  Also think about anyone that sells advertising, or promotional items.
• Mention it in a newsletter or trade publication as a resource.  Including a “Discount Number” will make you look good and will allow you to get credit for the sales even if it’s in something they’re not reading online.
• You can email a couple friends but don’t send this to anyone you don’t know extremely well or that might think you were spamming them.  A single spam complaint may be enough to remove you from the program so if in doubt, please err on the side of caution!
