Frequently Asked
Questions


Q: Is there any cost to join the Home-Based Travel Agent Affiliate program?

A: No! The Program is absolutely free to join.

Q: How much do I get paid?

A: You will be paid $25 for each sale directly referred by you. Plus, you will be paid $10 for every sale referred by a sub-affiliate you referred to us.

Q: When do I get paid?

A: You get paid every month in which you have earned commissions of at least $35. If your commissions do not add up to $35, they are carried over each month until they reach or exceed $35. Then we cut you a check.

Q: What is a sub-affiliate?

A: Every time you refer someone to our web site (www.HomeTravelAgency.com) and they sign up as an Affiliate, they become your "sub-affiliate." So every time they refer a sale, they get $25 and you get a $10 sub-affiliate referral fee.

Let's say you refer Mary, who purchases the course. You earn $25. Mary likes the course so much, she returns to the site and signs up as an affiliate. She then refers Jim, who purchases the course. She earns $25 and you earn $10.

Q: How do you track my sales to assure I get paid what I am owed?

A: We use AssocTRAC software, widely considered an industry leader in affiliate tracking software. AssocTrac places a "cookie," a small snippet of harmless computer code, on the computer of every person who clicks through from your links. When they purchase the Home-Based Travel Agent home study course, the cookie makes sure you get credit -- even if it's up to three years after their first visit to our site!

Q: How can I see how well my marketing efforts are paying off?

A: Simply log on to your Home-Based Travel Agent Affiliate Program account (we'll tell you how when you join) to access a variety of online reports that track your activity in real time. Log on any time, day or night to get the latest on your clickthroughs and commission earnings.

Q: I don't have a web site yet. Can I still join?

A: Yes. You can promote www.HomeTravelAgency.com by email to your friends and associates (no spam!). You can also put your unique referral URL in your "signature file," so you'll be promoting the course everytime you send an email. But you should really think about getting your own web site with your own domain name.

Q: Can I participate in the program if I don't live in the United States?

A: Yes, but be aware that the Home-Based Travel Agent home study course applies primarily to the United States and Canada. We get very few orders from elsewhere.

Q: How much money can I make?

A: That's impossible to say. Everything depends on how actively and creatively you promote www.HomeTravelAgency.com and the home study course. But we offer an exceptionally high referral fee/commission on direct sales and a generous sub-affiliate program.

Q: Why do you ask for my Social Security Number (Tax UD) on the application form?

A: Because we have to. For every affiliate who earns more than $600 in a calendar year (and we hope that means you!), we must provide Uncle Sam with a Form 1099MISC. You must file that form with your 1040.

Q: Where will I find things like banners, ads, text links and articles I can use to promote the Home-Based Travel Agent home study course?

A: In our Affiliate Support section you will find a growing toolbox of marketing materials that you are free to use, including banners and a variety of text-based materials.
