I wonder if it is possible FS increase elite member's referral earning to make it the same as normal affiliate at 20% ?
Elite member are the ones who are potentially attractive for new affiliates as they could learn with someone and earn money quickly, but with only 5% of ref for elite members we cant take advantage of our status.
One of my friend is elite as well and he has about 500 ref. He has about 5-6 sales daily and his ref earning are in average 15-20$ daily. If it was 20% for elite member he would have 60$-80$ daily only with ref earning and still increasing.
He would earn more as a normal affiliate than an elite member,the 20% more he gets from sales are less than the 15% he loses from ref earning.
I know some elite have 2 accounts, 1 elite for sales and another one they use only for ref earnings , not sure such practice is allowed by filesonic.
There is maybe not many who are in this situation , but I think Elite member should have higher rates not only for sales but for all earning, or at least the same earning rates in other field , shouldnt have less ref rates than casual affiliates.
I Myself has already giving up recruiting ref as its not worth the effort at the current rates (and also because lot are inactive and just register for a forum list).
Have 100+ ref but only 5-6 are actives and with 5% I earn only about 4$ daily.
