Offer 3: Save up to 50% on Beach hotels

On The Beach are pleased to announce it’s biggest ever summer sale. The sale will see discounts of up to 50% available on beach hotels, beach holidays available from £185 per person and further discounts available to customers booking online.

So Why Promote On The Beach - a note from them…..

“We pride ourselves in great value for money holidays, to fab destinations and at a fraction of the cost you would pay on the high street. We even offer out customers the opportunity to pay for their holiday bit by bit, giving them the flexibility to book and pay when it’s convenient for them (providing the departure is more than 13 weeks away). Customers “build their own” holidays allowing them the freedom to hand pick the perfect holiday for them and with such an extensive list of suppliers (from lo-cost to charter tour operators), it’s a very easy task indeed!”

Affiliate Resource material

To help you make the most of your programme, On The Beach have provided the following (all available within the Affiliate Future resource centre): http://afuk.affiliate.affiliatefutur…l/default.aspx

Landing pages (destination and resort level), Accommodation/Hotel stock list (Top 7000 - next 20,000 coming soon), Interactive search banners, top performing landing page info, City break landing pages, travel guides, full suite of creative and NOW LIVE in AF Travel services (via meta search and holiday search panel)

What affiliates are earning… With an average booking value of = £1100, at a 3% commission rate - you could be earning £33 for every sale you deliver. Affiliates who make that extra bit of effort may be invited to join the hidden programme.

Ok - that’s it for now. If you would like any help, advice or just general info on the programme, please contact Victoria.mcquillan@affiliatefuture.co.uk

If promoting fares please caveat with “Terms and Conditions apply. See virginatlantic.com for full details. Upper Class fares do not include limo transfers and must be booked 28 days prior to departure”.

Sunshine.co.uk – June up-date’s and top selling destinations…

Vicki — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 13:44:22 +0000

Dear all,

So - you probably know by now that Chris C - Affiliate manager at Sunshine.co.uk, succeeded for the second year running, in achieving “Affiliate Manager of the year” at the A4U awards!!! Nice work Chris!

Not only that - but Sunshine have been shortlisted for the”Tr@vel Pioneer Award” - at the Travolution awards in September (fingers crossed guys)!

So why do they do so well? In the words of Lloyd Grossman….. “Let’s take a look at the evidence”…

Sunshine has quickly built a reputation as the UK’s leading independent travel agent. Their mix of low-cost holidays, budget flights and discounted hotels, makes them a serious contender in the world of online travel.

If that’s not enough, they have all the resource you could possibly need to run a successful affiliate campaign, so promoting Sunshine.co.uk really is a no brainer!

Here’s some info about Sunshine - (in case you’ve been in quarantine for the past eighteen months), and some handy hints and up-dates for those of you already promoting Sunshine or about to….

Bon Voyage - Barbados Winners….

Sunshine have sponsored 6 very lucky affiliates to go on the AffiliateFuture Barbados networking trip - which leaves this weekend. Each affiliate earned their place by out performing all others in their chosen Sunshine incentive category - well done everyone. I’m not going to name the winners (you know who you are…), but will be contacting each and every one of you following the trip to see how it went and get all the gossip!
Thanks to everyone who took part - and watch this space for the next Sunshine.co.uk incentive!

Ok, that’s it for now. Sunshine would like to take this opportunity to say a “big thank you” to everyone who has helped make the affiliate programme a success, to all who voted for Chris and look forward to continued success in the future.
