Are You Adding Value – Something Unexpected?

February 10, 2009 By Jamie Birch 2 Comments

Are you adding value to your customers and to your merchant patners?

This is a short video shot from my favorite office, Calypsos’ Coffee in Coeur d’Alene Idaho. They offer business owners a great room to either host a meeting or to work from at any time of the day. The room provies a quite place that is comfortable and has all the necessities to work day to day. It’s a great place and the room is an unexpected value add that keeps us coming back and sets them apart from their competition.

Learning from Chief Ramsey – You are only as good as your last service.

January 4, 2009 By Jamie Birch Leave a Comment

There are certain basic foundations of running an affiliate program such as timely checks, clear terms and conditions, consistent, acurate and timely returns processed, quick response times, good and updated creative and more. For you affiliate managers, grade yourself honestly on some of those things. How did you do the last time? How was your last service? Too many affiliate managers don’t look at this way and it leads to a lack of trust from affiliates, and that hurts the industry.

Testimonials

We had JEBCommerce do a complete affiliate audit for us. They did a fantastic job digging into areas and making recommendations based on their findings. We are constantly improving our program based on their review. I keep it pinned on my wall because I can always look back and find things that need attention or improvement. — Chris Rocha :: Harry & David

We were very impressed with the thoroughness of JEB Commerce’s audit. They left no stone unturned, and handed us a number of new opportunities. — Jason Bernloehr :: E-Commerce Mgr, Rockler Woodworking

We work with JEBCommerce for several reasons. They’re innovative. They educate us by explaining what needs to be done & why. They’re highly experienced. And finally, they’re flexible, knowledgeable about our business, and willing to work with us to maximize results for our company. — Ned Farra :: Zappos.com

I have worked with Jamie since 2001 and would highly recommend him. He is extremely well-known and highly regarded in the world of performance marketing. Since Jamie has handled accounts as an in-house affiliate program manager, an OPM and now as the owner of his own consulting business, he has seen the industry from all sides. As a result, you could not find anyone in the industry with a broader perspective and a deeper understanding. I therefore would give Jamie my unqualified recommendation. — Paul Nichols :: Director of Sales, Ebates.com

Jamie is one of a handful of true affiliate industry experts. Ever since I first met him many years ago, he has been my go-to guy for answers to hard affiliate business questions. He is a true entrepreneur, and he continually amazes me with all of the ways he immerses himself in the industry. Jamie is a passionate advocate for both sides of the affiliate relationship equation. I cannot recommend him highly enough. — Julie Barile :: eMarketing Manager, Avon Products, Inc.
