Hello there…we have another really impressive case study for one of our Commission Junction (CJ) clients in the tech retail niche. Their overall sales and click-through rates (CTR) went absolutely through the roof during November, mainly due to Black Friday/ Cyber Monday promotions, buying behavior, and tons of affiliates producing. The program’s EPCs spiked as well, which attracts more new Affiliate/Publisher sign-ups to the program. Here are some graphs that illustrate the dramatic growth achieved with their CJ program during November 2010 and continuing into a strong December sales period:

This graph demonstrates the dramatic increase in click-throughs on CJ during November 2010.

This demonstrates the dramatic increase in sales on CJ during November 2010.

These growth figures were achieved through the following affiliate program management methods:
