Be Helpful Offering this information based on matching the prospects’ needs to what can be provided should ideally be the start of the whole exercise. Designing simple yet descriptive bits of information to be used to tantalizing the prospect into making a commitment will be the successful way of creating helpful information. Being able to anticipate if the information will be helpful is also another consideration that should be considered as if the information is deemed suitable it will be well accepted upon the recommendation. The helpful information should ideally include the following points:  Monitoring the sales data in terms of helpful information based on the buying and selling trends of the company and then introducing affiliates that describe in detail, programs that will help enhance the current situation should be well received.  Providing information of affiliates that will enhance the edge over the competition will also be another platform to tap into. If the information on the affiliate is found to be helpful to the prospect then the committed participation is established.  If the affiliate is predominantly promoting events such as trade shows on an international level then the relevant supporting data should be provided for the prospect to peruse. Information that is complimentary in fashion while showing the past exposure at such events and the affiliates advantages should be clearly outlined to ensure the affiliate programs is complete and promotable. - 11 -
