More On Clickbank| Article #323 : THE COMPLETE CLICKBANK GUIDE – PART 9

In this installment of our guide to Clickbank, we’re going to get ourselves up and running either to sell products as an affiliate or to sell products as a vendor. There is really very little difference, though as a vendor there are additional steps and as an affiliate you don’t have as many options associated with your account.

Let’s start with using Clickbank as an affiliate. After you have signed up and verified your email address, you will be given the login URL and your password to log into your account. About your password, they generate it for you. You can change it if you like, but they will provide one for you. If you should forget it, there is no way of getting it back. You have to get Clickbank to generate a new password for you. I’ll show you how to do that later on. If you have your login URL and info, log into your account now and I will walk you through the various parts of your account.

After you log in, you will be at the account home. If you scroll down the page, you will see that it says Pay Period Sales Totals. These should be zero right now since you haven’t made any sales yet. Don’t  worry, that is going to change after you’ve finished reading the tutorials on making money online in these volumes.

I you scroll down to the very bottom of the page, you will see several options that you can use.

Credit and Debit Reports – This is where you can see a detailed breakdown of each of your sales and returns. You can also see what products you sold as well. If you’re a vendor, you will also see who sold that product for you. This is important for giving out incentive bonuses to your sales team, which is something I personally do. More on that later.

Modify Account Settings – This is where you go to make any changes to your account, including name, email and phone. You will notice that there is no place to change your password. If you forget it, you have to get Clickbank to generate a new one for you.

Prior Pay Checks – This is where you can see all the prior checks that have been sent to you going back about 6 months or so. After a while, old checks do fall off the page.

Accounting Policy – This is where you can see all the items that I went over in volume 45. If you need a refresher, this is the place you have to go.

FAQ – This is where you can view the most frequently asked questions of Clickbank reps. Believe it or not, unlike most FAQ pages, this one is actually very good. You will find the answers to some really pertinent issues.

Please note that the above options are only available with the legacy login form. There is a new beta form that doesn’t have these options. If you want to access them, you have to use the legacy form. Eventually, I assume that Clickbank will do away with the legacy form, though they haven’t yet.

In our next installment, we’ll show you how to turn your affiliate account into a vendor account and what hoops you’ll have to jump through in order to do that.

See you then.
