Did you have any ideas about” Get accepted to any CPA Network”? Now, listen to me.

1.Be a professional – spend a few dollars to look like a professional marketer if you haven’t already, it makes all the difference.
Most applications are denied these days because single affiliates are known for 99% of the fraud on CPA networks. If you want instant approval, immediate access to exclusive offers not even listed on the site and higher payouts on every offer right away, then you need to be a company, not a person.
This is all very simple and inexpensive, but these pretty little touches make you a hot ticket item when your application is being reviewed.
First of all, spend the $60 to $90 and register a company with your state if you are not one already. It takes less than 24 hours in most states to receive your official registration and it can now be done online in less than ten minutes. Get a workable name for your online business ventures like “Lightspeed Marketing”, something that makes you sound like a marketing company.
Once you have registered your new company name go to [url=http://sa2.www4.irs.gov/modiein/individual/index.jsp]http://sa2.www4.irs.gov/modiein/individual/index.jsp[/url] and get your Tax ID for your new business.
This EIN number is what you will use to sign up to the networks with instead of your social security number, and you will apply as a company, not an individual.
Take your printed out EIN number and confirmation document from the state for your business registration to your bank the next day and you will now have an official business checking account to make and receive payments.
Now you can apply to the CPA networks and merchants with your company name and have them pay you in your company name by check or bank wire.
When networks and merchants see that you are not only a company but a marketing company, they take your application much more seriously and make it a point to get you up and running quickly with their best payouts and offers.
If you are not located in the US, then simply follow the procedure for registering a business in your own country.

2.Get a professional website and email address – Most affiliates freak out when the networks ask what sites they promote offers on. They often go to immense trouble trying to set up niche specific blogs to impress the network.
If you simply have a generic corporate site, you will be approved lightning quick and you won’t be expected to reveal any of your other sites (especially good if you don’t have any other sites yet).
Take a look at a simple site like [url=http://www.intermarkmedia.com/]http://www.IntermarkMedia.com[/url], it looks like every other
corporate site for an internet marketing company out there, and you can get an
almost exact copy made with your own logo and text for less than $200 on a site
like [url=http://www.getafreelancer.com/]http://www.GetAFreelancer.com[/url] if you aren’t well versed in web design.
Don’t apply to networks with gmail and hotmail accounts, I’m not saying you won’t get approved, but I am saying that networks frown on these types of submissions and these accounts are heavily scrutinized.

3.Get a dedicated business phone line with a professional voicemail and don’t use a cell – You can get Skype, or MagicJack, or any one of a thousand phone services with voicemail for less than $5 a month if you don’t have a spare line.
Your voicemail should be something to the effect of “Hi you’ve reached the desk of John Smith, I’m either on the phone or away from my desk, please leave me a message and I’ll give you a call back as soon as I can, Thanks”.
Do not give them a cell number where you have a rap song playing for five minutes followed by a robotic operator saying “ To leave a voicemail press 1”.
This really makes you look like an amateur.
I personally recommend a service like TollFreeLive. You can get a toll free number with hundreds of extensions and 1000 minutes for $29.00 a month.
The best choice is really [color=red]Vonage[/color] for business. It’s still only $30 a month for unlimited long distance, and all you need is you EIN to get a business account. This means that when you call these networks and anyone of importance for that matter, the caller ID won’t show up as “Smith, John” it will show up as “Lightspeed Marketing” or whatever your company name is, and that little itty bitty touch makes you look too legit to quit in the eyes of a network.

4.Get an instant messenger – (Preferably AIM and ICQ since this is what most aff managers use) and a professional screenname like JohnSmith, your company name, or a combination of both like “LightspeedJohn”.

5.Call the network/merchant the next day after you submit your application – Don’t work on their time frame, work on yours.
Once you submit an application, grab their phone number and call them the next day if they haven’t already approved you.
If you wait for them, it could take up to two weeks for an approval if there have been an influx of applications, and frankly, they appreciate pro-active affiliates who are serious about working with them.
There are only two questions your application reviewer will probably ask you:
1. How do you promote offers?
2. What type of offers are you interested in?
The answers are simple:
1. I buy traffic and banner space
2. I run all types of offers if they are converting well, I have access to a lot of traffic sources and a large budget to spend on good offers.
The End.
I know it may sound trivial to you, but from a lot of experience and a lot of conversations with CPA networks, these few simple things will guarantee your acceptance and an affiliate manager willing to do whatever he or she can to help you get up and running.
Services like

and

are great for this.
You’ll get a professional office address, receptionist, and a block of hours each month to use offices/conference rooms for less than a couple hundred bucks.
These setups make you look EXTREMELY professional, and I would be shocked if anyone has ever been turned down by an affiliate network when they call a toll free number and are connected to a professional receptionist answering all your calls
These people aren’t out to get you, they are just doing their job. Most of them are pretty cool actually. Most of the time in my experience they ask about 2-3 questions. They don’t put you under a hot light and interrogate you. They just want to make sure your legit and rightfully so with all the fraud going around. If you come off genuiene chances are they will say, “Alright I’ve just approved your account.”
Everyone makes a big deal of the whole process when in actuality its so very simple. When I had no experience at all calling networks I basically winged it and just said I was an affiliate on 20 different networks. I kept stressing the fact that I worked with other networks and have been for quite some time. I would say that right when the conversation started and most of the time once they heard that they had no questions for me.
AM: Hello is this Mike? This is Mildred from Hydra. (Yes she said Mildred)
ME: Oh great, I’ve heard some awesome things about your network from business partners your working with. I’d like to expand my base of networks I currently work with and get on yours.
I’ve used that a ton of times with great success. Usually they are a little taken back by it. a) I have business partners already working with that network which builds credibility b) I’m on other networks and want to work with theirs which also builds credibility. Credibility and honesty is what they are looking for and this gets across a lot with saying very little.
In the end, its all how you present yourself and how you speak. If you are speaking like you’ve done this a million times then the AM will feel that. Its more about how you say things than what you say.
You may get rejected a few times, but who cares… do you know how many networks are out there? Even so, you can simply re-apply, call them up and ask why your application was denied. Sometimes its just because they needed to kill a certain amount of apps that day. Nothing is personal so don’t take it that way.

Thanks for your concerning.
