premium affiliateWe talked about the benefits of being a basic affiliate on Wednesday, now it’s time to talk about the benefits of GDI’s Premium offering. Our Premium offering is for those affiliates who want more form their products and services and the chance to make more money. The best parts of being a Premium affiliate are listed below. Find out if it’s right for you or your downline.

Premium Commissions

The biggest draw of Premium is the chance to earn even bigger commissions. With Premium, GDI will pay out 75% of the revenue from Premium customers. That means 4 to 14 times larger commissions on GDI Premium customers in your five level downline.

Daily Ticket in GDI Lottery

If you follow us on Twitter, chances are you’ve seen our daily announcement of the winners of the GDI Premium Lottery. Winners receive new trial signups who do not yet have a sponsor. We select three winners daily. This means more downline building potential without any extra work.

Domain Privacy

Who doesn’t want more privacy online? Domain privacy prevents your personal information from displaying in the public whois. The law requires accurate and verifiable whois information for your domain at all times. GDI changes the information to our own, while you still retain ownership of the domain. This service is free with your Premium status.

Increased Storage     

Your SiteBuilder Gallery, Webmail, and Hosting all have increased storage with your Premium upgrade. This includes 50 email addresses (as opposed to 10 with basic) and 5GB of storage for your GDI email. SiteBuilder storage increases from 100MB to 1GB and hosting storage also increases from 100MB to 1GB. If storage is a priority, Premium is right for you.

Four Important Things Your Basic Affiliate Status Gets You

Domain

All affiliates are given a .WS domain. Your .WS allows you a chance at domain names you would otherwise be locked out of with .COM. Your .WS domain comes with instant activation, 20 sub domains, and options for parking and custom nameservers. GDI offers an optional domain privacy add-on for just $1 per month.  You can also take advantage of URL forwarding to forward to any domain with the option for masked forwarding. Your .WS domain is search engine optimized and is indexed by all major search engines.

Email

For basic affiliates, GDI’s email comes standard with 10 email addresses per domain and offers AJAX web interface as well as a mobile interface. GDI’s email also has cloud file editing and storage and personal spam control as well as POP3/IMAP support. Complete with tagging, conversations, and advanced search, your GDI Email will become your go-to email service.

Income Opportunity

As a basic GDI affiliate, you will be rewarded with a 10% commission on the revenue generated from each layer, down through a total of 5 generations, with no limit to how many “front line” (Layer 1) affiliates you may have and therefore no limit to your potential income. If you personally introduce just 5 affiliates and each of them do the same, you will have built a network of 3905 affiliates. Possibly the most simple and easy to understand way to explain the GDI affiliate program is as a type of referral program. Affiliates are rewarded for each new sign up they refer to their team. When your referral signs up with you, you receive a commission.

Bonus Eligibility

Affiliates are no longer required to purchase a DVD package or be an active Premium member to be eligible for the bonus. Now all active GDI affiliates (including basic) will be eligible to win the bonus. Each and every active affiliate can now earn an unlimited number of $100 bonuses each week.

Create Your Brand

There are thousands of people interested in and involved with GDI. This means there are a lot of people out there to work with, but you need to stand out. One powerful way to stand out is to create and market your own brand. This doesn’t mean you have to sink money into advertising, it means taking the steps to find your brand voice, share it, and encourage others to do so.

Here’s how to do it:

Find Your Voice

When you talk to prospective downline members or post on your WebSite are you authoritative or friendly? Warm or straight forward? Big picture or right now? These are all styles of presenting information that create your voice. Finding the voice that fits you is step one. Go through your past posts and emails and see how you communicate or ask a friend or family member what they think your communication style is. Is your style effective? Do people respond to it? If you answered yes, then go on to step two. If you answered no, it’s time to find a voice that engages people and shares information effectively.

Stay Consistent Across All Mediums

This is step two. Use this newly indentified brand voice through all communications including video, email, blog posts and the like. People will remember your voice and associate it with your brand. You’ll attract people who respond to your unique brand voice, helping to build your team with like minded people.

Empower Your Team

Name your brand to give it more power. Think of a name for your team or you as a sponsor. Consider creating a logo. Build a team you a strong team and use your logo and name. Team members will be happy to share it. People want to be part of something successful, so give them a name to put to your team and empower them to share it. Have team members join a branded Facebook group, share their success stories on social media, or add your team logo to the website. Empower others to get the most out of your team and your brand.
