• Payouts will be in Linden Dollars
• The longer a new resident stays in Second Life, the more Partners will be paid out (up to 60 days)
• Partners will receive a % of resident USD purchases (up to 60 days)
• Reporting on the link level will be available to help optimize your links and their placements as needed

 

Hello Darcy

does this mean, there won't be a commission for sign-ups/registrations but only for actual purchases?
I assume that means purchases such as premium accounts and Linden-Dollars?

In that case, are there any incentives we can use to make them buy stuff within the first 60 days?

You got me on the list for alpha?

The payout schemes will be transparently listed in the Partner Portal – with that said, we'll be looking to start with a very low payout for registrations, but given those were abused in the past we'll be monitoring closely and the payout scheme will reflect the platform's use.

Not at the moment.

Yes

Ok, so ist a bit for registrations and more on purchases within the first 60 days.
Which basically means I need to:

1. Write more content targeting new users
2. Get those to signup for a newsletter and/or a group
3. Promote SL Products to my new users (i.e Premium membership)
4. Write additional content relevant to premium members (Land purchase, Linden Homes etc.)

Sounds like a plan.

When can I start? Ish?

You're on top of it @Caroline Takeda! 

You can start when we get the alpha up – still in progress and all here will be the first to know with a sign up form.

Any news on that?

With the new Sendra avatars and a sales-oriented orientation island, it would be an excellent time to start this.

I have some Sendra content already in the works.

[Caroline Takeda]

Sorry

It's Senra, of course, not Sendra.

@Darcy Linden

I wrote a little review on the new orientation island from a marketer's perspective, including a little, subtle pun towards the Lindens. 🙂

That is why I think it would be an excellent time to get it going asap!
