Happy New Year to all HelloLife affiliates. Congrats to everyone who received a bonus for the month of December and thanks to all who are actively sending targeted visitors our way. Just a couple key updates to bring you up to speed on:

1) We are in the process of re-formulating nine products. Candidol, Activive, Rhumatol, Respitrol, and Claritose are now all-natural homeopathic formulations. Synaptol, Viratrol, and Lupazol will soon follow suit with Nutratose being re-released as a “Superfood”. Check out our new sales pages for more information and to learn about homeopathy.

2) If you are new to the program or need a refresher on the partnership we offer, view our new video presentation highlighting the key aspects: http://www.healthylifestylebiz.com

3) A quick reminder that effective January 31, we will have new PPC bidding guidelines in place. If you are currently bidding on our brand or product names, please read the updated guidelines and comply by January 31. Any questions or if you need clarification on the new guidelines feel free to email or give me a call.

4) Please take a moment to check your ShareASale account and see if you are eligible for Pay Per Call. If you are then definitely apply and I will approve you for the MicroNutra Health campaign. Get your own phone number and we’ll place your number on our site when you send a visitor.

If you are in need of a product review or some ideas for content on your site, by all means send me an email or call and I will provide the info you need. 1-on-1 communication with your affiliate manager is one of the best tools for success.

Have a great rest of the week.

Wishing you success,

This newsletter(#018) was originally sent to all MicroNutra Health affiliates on November 19, 2009:

Just a quick note to let you know MicroNutra Health is offering a Black Friday/Cyber Monday promotion and the deal has been loaded into ShareASale.

Note the new Black Friday/Cyber Monday link will bring the visitor to the MicroNutra Health catalog page. You do not have to use the new link in order to promote the Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal. There is no promo code. Free shipping and a free bottle of Painazol Pain Relief Gel(a new product we are just releasing) will be automatically added to all orders from November 27 through November 30.

Another promotion update: Promo code AF10 now saves a customer 10% on any order placed.

As I mentioned in the previous newsletter we have changed our pricing model on several products. Please verify the information you are providing on your website matches the new pricing we now have in place. Also be sure to update your links if you are utilizing the datafeed or “direct to shopping cart” links.

If you have any questions at all or would like to include a product review on your site, feel free to contact me and I’ll provide the information you need. Have a great weekend.

Wishing you success,

This newsletter(#017) was sent to all MicroNutra Health affiliates on November 9, 2009:

Happy November to all MicroNutra Health affiliates. 2 major updates in this newsletter: Pay-Per-Call and Product Pricing.

1) Select ShareASale affiliates can now apply for the new Pay-Per-Call phone tracking system. If you are actively sending traffic to our website, or plan on doing so, I strongly recommend clicking on the “Pay Per Call Center” link within the ShareASale interface to find out if you are eligible to apply for Pay-Per-Call. If you do apply please send me a quick message so that I can approve you for the MicroNutra Health Pay-Per-Call campaign.

Here’s why Pay-Per-Call is beneficial for MicroNutra affiliates:
You receive your own dedicated phone number(s) to promote our products. We have implemented a system that dynamically inserts affiliate phone numbers and priority codes(your affiliate ID) onto our sale copy. That way when referred visitors call from our site, the call is tracked through ShareASale’s Pay-Per-Call system and I can credit you with phone sales that result(web orders are still automatically credited).

We pay you the standard 25-35% sales commission on calls that result in a sale. I can trace the individual calls back to our customer orders to see which ones closed(based on customer phone numbers and/or time of calls). This totally bypasses the reliance on phone customers giving us a priority code(your ID) or referring website.

We will also pay you $1.00 for every call you send that lasts at least 2 minutes(regardless of whether the call resulted in a sale). That payout is automated and each call is tracked(so you know how many phone calls you send our way).

You can place your phone number on your site(which I do recommend along with one of our promotions), utilize the phone number in off-line marketing campaigns, and reap the benefits of having your phone number show up on our site whenever you send a visitor our way.

If you apply and have any problems getting your Pay-Per-Call account confirmed just contact me and I will look into it.

If you are not eligible for Pay-Per-Call at this time, please continue to check your Pay-Per-Call status each month for an update. Until you have a dedicated phone number, any phone calls you send will go through our affiliate phone line and a priority code(your ID) will still be shown on our website.

2) We have changed our pricing model for many products. Please check our website to see if the products you are promoting have been affected. Note than select products are now available to customers at a reduced entry price. I have updated our product datafeed, the deals database within ShareASale, and the “Direct to Shopping Cart” links. Please update any links or information that may be affected on your sites.

Lastly, I do have a review available for each of our products. If you’re interested in placing a review on your website, just let me know which products and I’ll send the reviews over. Also if you have any questions about Pay-Per-Call or the new pricing, feel free to email or give me a call. Have a great week!

Welcome to all new and existing MicroNutra Health affiliates. A special thanks to all active affiliates who are sending visitors our way. This is a 3 part announcement beginning with the topic of repeat orders:

1) Lifetime Repeat Order Commissions including 2nd Tier: You will now receive 10% on future orders made by new customers that you refer. You will also receive 2% commission on all repeat orders credited to affiliates that you referred. Repeat orders are tracked and recorded separate from the lifetime cookie function so that you receive repeat order commissions regardless of whether the affiliate cookie is present on the customer’s computer and regardless of whether the customer purchases online or by phone. Note that on a free sample order made by a new customer, you receive 25% of the shipping cost of the free sample order, 25% on the first regular order placed by the customer, and 10% of all future orders placed by the customer.

Furthermore, if you have referred any new customers since July 1, we are giving you a running start by back-tracking and tagging those new customers with your affiliate ID. So from here on out when any new customer you have referred since July 1 places a new order, you will receive 10%.

Repeat orders are credited manually. Note that it is possible to receive an automatic 25% on a repeat order if your affiliate cookie is present on the customer’s computer when the order is placed.

Also note that once a customer is tagged with your ID, no other affiliate can take that customer away from you. However note: You will receive 10% on any future order made by that customer unless that customer, on any given order, has a cookie from a different affiliate on their computer while making the purchase.

2) We are now dynamically inserting personal affiliate phone numbers onto our sales pages. If you were able to sign-up for Pay-Per-Call and get your own phone number, we will replace our standard Call Center number with your personal affiliate phone number when you send a visitor to our site. Go ahead and check it out. We also place a priority code(your ID) on the top right-hand corner of the sales pages as well as right above the phone numbers listed by the ordering options.

For any affiliate(actively sending visitors) who was not able to sign-up for Pay-Per-Call, we are replacing our standard Call Center number with an affiliate line(888-213-6410) that we have set up. When we receive a call on that line we know that it was referred from an affiliate and can ask for the priority code or referring website.

You receive 25-35% on phone calls that result in sales. If you’re on the Pay-Per-Call system you also receive $1.00 for any call you refer that lasts at least 2 minutes regardless of whether the call resulted in a sale or not.

I will send an announcement when Pay-Per-Call opens again to new sign-ups and at that time I will highly recommend that everyone join to obtain their free personal affiliate phone number. You’re not obligated to do anything with that number but we will place your number on our site when you send a visitor our way. All calls through Pay-Per-Call are tracked and you will be able to see the date, time, and length of the calls you refer.

3) We have a new “instant savings” promotion option for affiliates. You will have to let me know if you would like to participate and then I will set you up in our system. Here’s how it works:

If you opt-in to this system, all visitors you send to our site will automatically receive a discount in their shopping cart. You have 2 options. You can offer $10 off on a purchase of $50 or more(which is equivalent to the AF10 coupon code we also offer). You can also offer 5% savings on a purchase of any amount.

If you are interested in this “instant savings” promotion please email me and let me know which promotion you would like to offer to your visitors.

Keep in mind all visitors you send our way will receive the discount in their shopping cart. If the visitor closes their browser before purchasing and comes back later to buy, they will not receive the discount. The visitor must “buy now” in order to receive the discount.

Thanks for taking the time to read this important update. If you have any questions at all feel free to email or give me a call. If you’re not currently sending visitors and sales our way and would like to start, by all means contact me if you need help or tips. I’m here to support you 100%.

Wishing you success,

This is a quick update on a new buying option we now offer on most MicroNutra products. Effective immediately the original Buy 3 Get 2 Free option is being replaced with Buy 3 Get 3 Free Plus Get Free Shipping. This option is now available on all products except Licenex, Genitrex, Vita-Male, and Vita-Female. Note that International(outside the USA and Canada) orders will receive $9.95 off the regular shipping charge. To summarize the current buying options:

Single Bottle + Shipping Charge
Buy 2 Get 1 Free + Shipping Charge – Most Popular Option
Buy 3 Get 3 Free Plus Get Free Shipping – Best Value Option

We also have an improved design for the buying options. Have a look at any of the sales pages.

The product datafeed and the Direct to Shopping Cart text links have been updated. If you’re utilizing either type of creative please ensure your links have updated properly. Also note that the AF10 promotion code will still work with any of the buying options.

Pay-Per-Call update:
ShareASale has begun finalizing their integration of the Pay-Per-Call platform with the main ShareASale platform. They have suspended approving new Pay-Per-Call accounts until the process is complete.

Also note that we(MicroNutra) are close to having the programming complete for dynamically inserting affiliate phone numbers onto our sales pages(when you refer a visitor to our site your Pay-Per-Call phone number will show up instead of our standard Call Center number).

I will send an update as soon as ShareASale begins accepting new Pay-Per-Call applications. At that time I will highly recommend all MicroNutra affiliates apply to get their own phone number. It costs you nothing and you are not obligated to do anything with the number. Simply having your Pay-Per-Call phone number show up on our site will help me credit you for any phone sales that result.

Lastly if you’re not sure how to get started with promoting MicroNutra products, or if you feel your site needs a boost, feel free to email or call and I will work with you to get your site or blog optimized for the best conversion rate. I also have a review available for each of our products if you’re in need of content. Just let me know if you need help with anything.

Thanks for reading this update and I’ll be in touch with more news soon.

Wishing you success,

Happy Tuesday to all MicroNutra affiliates. Some of you may have already received the information below as I did contact certain affiliates individually. I strongly urge you to sign up for ShareaSale’s Pay-Per-Call system and join the MicroNutra Health campaign, especially if you are actively sending visitors to our site. Here are the details:

We will soon have a new phone tracking system in place for our MicroNutra Health program.

You can get your own dedicated phone number to promote our products. By the end of August we plan on implementing a system that will dynamically insert affiliate phone numbers and affiliate priority codes(your ID) onto our sale copy. That way when referred visitors call from our site it will be tracked through ShareASale’s Pay-Per-Call system and I can credit you with phone sales that result(web orders will still be automatically credited).

We will pay you the standard 25% sales commission on calls that result in a sale. I can trace the individual calls back to our customer orders to see which ones closed(based on customer phone numbers and/or time of calls). This will totally bypass the reliance on phone customers giving us a priority code(your ID) or referring website.

We will also pay you $1.00 for every call you send that lasts at least 2 minutes(regardless of whether the call resulted in a sale). That payout is automated and each call is tracked(so you know how many phone calls you send our way).

You will need to sign up for Pay-Per-Call here: http://www.shareasale.com/paypercall

If you have any problems getting your Pay-Per-Call account confirmed just contact me and I will get it confirmed.

Then join our campaign(MicroNutra Health). You will receive a dedicated phone number(or more than one if you wish) that is attached to your standard ShareASale affiliate account.

You can then place the phone number on your site(which I do recommend along with promo code AF10), utilize the phone number in off-line marketing campaigns, and reap the benefits of having your phone number show up on our site whenever you send a visitor our way.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions at all. Feedback is also welcome!

Wishing you success,

Just a quick update to let you know that the MicroNutra Health affiliate program now offers two additional methods for driving affiliate sales through our Call Center. Please see the details below and don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have regarding either option.

1) Dedicated affiliate phone order line – When a call comes in from the new affiliate phone order line our Call Center will immediately ask for a priority code(your affiliate ID). This will help track affiliate-referred phone calls and orders plus give an indication on the conversion rate of affiliate-referred phone calls.

If you are interested in implementing the new number on your site please contact me and I will provide the phone number along with some recommendations for weaving the number and priority code into your web copy.

2) Pay-Per-Call: Your own unique phone number – ShareASale would like to invite you to become a beta tester for a new technology we are implementing, which enables you to set up unique, trackable toll-free numbers on demand, and allows you to drive traffic via online, offline, and even mobile channels. You can generate a different phone number for each campaign you are running.

There are no additional fees or costs associated with using this technology, you would simply earn commission for each qualified call that you drive to our Call Center.

If you are interested please join ShareASale for a live demonstration of this tool on Friday, June 26, 2009 at 2pm central. This webinar is invite only, please be sure to reserve your seat in advance.

Title: ShareASale Client Services: Introduction to Pay-Per-Call Model
Date: Friday, June 26, 2009
Time: 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM CDT

Reserve your webinar seat at: https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/889484971

Thanks for taking the time to read this update. Again if you have any questions at all feel free to contact me.
