- Welcome to our FAQ's Page -

Our Membership concept is so new to the online marketing concept that not many people have heard of it, and understandably so. But we feel that there's enough to go around that there's no need to be stingy in helping others. We have used most of the tools we offer and know how beneficial they can be in bringing knowledge to beginners and advanced as well. Affiliate Internet Marketing is simple, you promote other people's products for a commission. There are several ways to promote...Adwords, MSN, e-mail, ezines, optimized pages.....

Here are some of the question that have come up, and their answers.

Q. Can I sign up for your membership after I have already bought some of these tools?

A. You can sign up at anytime, 24/7. However, the rebate for a product is only good for purchases made after signing up for the Lifetime Membership Club. Several of the products we offer you can double back your one-time cost of becoming a member.
Example: Lets say one product sells for $500, which some do, only because they're worth every penny because of the return on your investment. Our "Current" rebate offer is 20% back once the original purchase guarantee offer ends, usually between 30 and 90 days. With our "Current" membership investment at only $50, your 20% back would be $100 in your pocket, thus doubling your initial investment of $50.

Then you can continuing receiving rebates on any other product we offer, for the lifetime of your membership.

Q. Can I purchase one of your products somewhere else and send you the receipt and get a rebate, after all, its still the same product?

A. Just like Walmart wouldn't appreciate you buying something from Sears and bringing it into Walmart and asking for a refund, because they are in business for a profit. We to, can only provide rebates for purchases made thru clicks on ads from this site. If we don't get notified of a purchase made from the original merchant, we would therefor know a purchase was not made from here. Most of the time we know a purchase was made long before you send us a receipt as proof-of-purchase.

Proof-of-purchase means a copy of the receipt you received at time of purchase, with the e-mail address you used to purchase it, the date purchased, and the receipt number. There are NO EXCEPTIONS. Please make a copy of these when you make your purchase, so you can forward it onto us.

Very Important Note: Do Not send us any portion of the receipt that has any information reqarding your credit card number, type, or expiration date. You may need to retype just the information mentioned above and send it to us to prevent personal information from coming across. We only want your e-mail address used at time of purchase, date purchased, and the receipt number.

Q. Why can't I get an instant rebate from you at time of purchase?

A. Most if not all merchants offer a money back guarantee if you are not satisfied with the product you purchase. If a merchant does not offer that, strongly consider purchasing another product. If you are unhappy with its results, you can request a refund, and should receive it, promptly. For this reason, and it has happened to us, that a customer will return the product, ask for their refund, get it, and still keep the rebate that we offer, thus profiting the rebate and we are out that money. We are a Business Directory, and promote products, for a commission, which is what an affiliate does, which is what most of the products we offer teach you how to do, make money on the Internet. If we lose our commission due to someone requesting a refund from the original merchant, we would then also be out the rebate we give as well. The rebate comes out of our pocket, not the original merchant, they have nothing to do with the rebate we offer. This is entirely our idea, to offer the rebate, our way of saying thank you for choosing A to Z Business Directory for your marketing needs. So we wait until the original merchants guarantee period is over and a refund can not be approved, then we send you the rebate, its only fair, right?

Q. How do you know that a purchase was made from this site to offer a rebate?

A. Most of the time we get notified that a sale was made from the original merchants marketing procedures. They have instant notifications in place just like an auto-responder e-mail. Since we are promoting their product, they notify us that a sale was made, and provide us with minor details of some receipt numbers, dates of purchase, and sometimes an e-mail. When you provide us that information after your purchase, this confirms that you made the purchase through one of our links.

When you click on a link from our site that goes to the merchant, a cookie is placed on your computer tracking where the purchase was made from. This type of cookie is only for notifying the original merchant where the sale came from. Nothing different than millions of sites all over the internet that place cookies on visitors so that the can see how long you visit a site, what pages you visit, what things interest you while you're there, something like a coupon you use at a store, there are tracking numbers on that coupon that lets the merchant know what store you bought that from to give credit to that store for you visiting them.

Cookies however have no commitment to them, they are lousy friends, here's why. Say you visit our site, click on an ad that takes you over to the merchants site, you get a cookie placed on your computer to let the merchant know you just came from our site. If a purchase is made, we get credit for it and you'll get a rebate. If however, you don't make a purchase at that time, and visit another site that promotes the same product for the same merchant, (why you would is beyond me, because we offer so much more than anyone else). You click on an ad while at that site, go over and make the purchase right then, because the last site you visited had a vicious "Cookie Monster" and it ate the cookie we gave you, and put their own cookie on your computer, then they get credit for you finding the product you just bought, even though you originally found it at our site, the last cookie you received is the one that counts. Cookie Monsters are bad, except we have a cookie monster also, but ours is nice, we give you a cookie with warm milk, to make the purchase process much nicer.

All kidding aside, thats how the process works all over the Internet, cookies here, cookies there, thats why there is a "Remove Cookies" option in your browsers Tools feature, to remove all the cookies, something like a weight-watchers instructor.

That is one of the things we mention you do before making a purchase here, to make sure you use the cookie we offer, and you get credit for buying from here, because as sad as it can be, we cannot offer a rebate if you leave here and visit another site and purchase from there, because then they get the commission, and you might only remember that you visited our site and forgot you went to another site to make the purchase, it has happened to us, and we regretably gave the rebate even though we never made the original commission. Even after confirming it through the original merchant, they said the purchase was made through another site.
