Can Anyone Get Accepted Into CPA Networks?
Getting accepted into the Cost Per Action networks is something that drives many marketers crazy. That’s because so many are used to the easy acceptance that comes from most of the affiliate marketing networks. Cost Per Action networks are pickier because they want a higher quality marketer.
But, you can get accepted! You’ll want to follow the strategies below if you are turned down (and even before that happens!) by the networks so you can begin making money from cpa offers quickly.
The 1st thing you need to do is select the CPA networks you want to join. That’s right — you’re going to join more than one. That is because there are likely a wide variety of offers you want to pick from on the numerous CPA networks. Something that is offered on one network might not be available on another CPA network. But, you should pay close attention to offers that are available in more than one network. That is because the commission may not always the same! You might find that the same exact offer pays quite a bit more on another network.
After you have discovered which networks you want to apply to, go ahead and complete their application form. They will likely ask you questions, such as how you intend on marketing their offers, where your main website is, how much traffic you generally receive, and other questions at their discretion. These questions may be intimidating if you are starting out, so just answer them to the best of your ability and know that this is not the be-all end-all.
Send the application, and be prepared to wait up to a week or so to hear something back. Alternatively, you can just go ahead and call the CPA network to gain acceptance right away. Calling is the magic answer in many cases. If you are taking the time to call them and discuss things over the phone, the managers will know that you are serious about this. You will often get accepted right on the phone!
At times CPA networks are a little bit more difficult to join. When that happens to you, you might want to lay out the marketing plan you have developed to promote their offers. Often laying out a solid business plan will help get you accepted!
As a last means, you can contact a successful CPA marketer so they can put in a good word for you. Normally it doesn’t come to this, but it never hurts to make these kind of contacts so you can make use of them if necessary in the future.
If you are not able to join a particular Cost Per Action network right now, and you’ve tried everything, you’ll just have to go forward and focus on the networks you got into. You can always reapply later once you have more experience under your belt. They definitely will not turn down someone who is able to get sales for themselves and for the client! Keep in mind — the CPA networks are there to profit, so if you are able to help them profit they have no reason to turn you down.
