In fact, businesses spend billions of dollars advertising products and services including
over 2 billion dollars on Internet advertising. Today's e-commerce merchants have begun to
make fundamental shifts in their approach to online advertising.
By using an affiliate sales channel, merchants are creating virtual sales forces that
provide advertising and product movement without the up-front expense. Through the use of
affiliate marketing, merchants only pay for advertising that results in a sale or
generates a lead. Effective use of affiliate sales channels will convert wasted
