First of all, make sure there is a picture of your smiling face by the welcome
message. Let them know they are working with a real person who is friendly and
helpful.

The welcome message is your chance to introduce yourself and tell them a little
about who you are as a person. Don't make it too businesslike. Make sure you
sound like someone the average new affiliate can relate to.

Then in the welcome message be sure to mention the 200 VP bonus for making 500 VP
in the first 24 hours. Remember that a brand new affiliate might not understand
the importance of VersaPoints so it might be nice to tell them how you feel when
you get a couple hundred VP you weren't expecting.

Then I recommend offering a gift certificate for meeting a particular goal of your
choice. It's a great way to add a little extra incentive, and they will spend it
in TripleClicks so you can expect to get some of the value back in Direct
Commissions and Versapoints.

I think most importantly let them know you are there to help them along the way
if they have any trouble. Working online can seem pretty lonely and scary for
someone just getting started if they are used to a crowd of coworkers and supervisors
around them. Let them know you are only an Instant Message (preferred) or email away.

I hope
