The Micon System

[Georgia Poker]

I'm new to ClickBank, having just signed up for them to promote the Micon System program. So far I've had three sales with the last two coming since the price increase. I don't know if that's a good conversion or not for this type of product as I've never promoted this before.

Anyway, upon reading the ClickBank T&C's I see this:

Customer distribution requirement.
ClickBank accounts cannot be used for the sole purpose of collecting rebates, or otherwise extending credit to yourself or others. To ensure compliance with US law, ClickBank will withhold payment of any account balance until it contains standing sales made with 5 or more different credit card numbers, including at least one Visa card, and one MasterCard. PayPal and eCheck purchases do not count toward the minimum.

Holy shit man! You mean that I may have to wait for 10, 12, 15, or more sales HOPING that at least one each uses a Visa and Mastercard? Most people I know will use PayPal if given an option. Jesus man, echecks don't count either!

This is perhaps one of the worst policies I've ever seen. You really have to jump through hoops to get paid by these people. In the meantime, your balance is sitting in their pockets collecting interest. I wonder how many affiliates have just given up being paid by ClickBank due to this BS policy...

My guess is they have had a lot of fraud. You wouldnt believe what someone would do to save $20 sometimes.

Clickbank, like every other major affiliate program doesnt give a crap about the small affiliates, because they have individuals sending thousands of sales a day who they worry about keeping happy.

So has anyone had any conversions from this program?

[Jeremy]

Yes I have sold a few.

Micon has become a ghost around here. Jeremy, you need to call him and let him know that his landing page is three weeks old now! It still says yesterday referring to May 14th....

At least have him write a damn script that changes the dates.

No wonder it's not converting well.

Once he never came through with a sample for people he wanted to promote, everything else was a moot issue IMO.

I wanted to promote it as well but couldnt get a hold of him through pm.

Sounds like he just disappeared from around here and left everyone that got excited about promoting his system hanging.

According to NeverWinPoker.com I don't think he's been doing very well in tournaments lately....maybe too many people are now using the Micon System.... B)

[Georgia Poker]

My guess is that the whole thing was a passing fancy for him anyway. If I was winning even 10K a week in tourneys I wouldn't mess with anything else either.

Can't say I blame him but still very weak to just drop off the face of the earth like that. If they don't change that damn landing page I'm going to stop promoting it anyway.
