Need To Find Tourist Services/products Affiliates

[simon43]

(Mods - please advise me if this is in breach of posting guidelines)

I posted this before in the Jobs/Business section, but had no replies

As I commented in another thread, I have written a free website logging application, (in response to the requirements of the Computer Act which requires all hotels/internet cafes to log all websites that are visited by their customers).

This application is now being 'rolled out' nationwide.

One aspect of this application is that it installs a new toolbar on the browser, and this toolbar has 'quick-links' to various products and services that might be of interest to the user of the computer. So think of hotel bookings, tours, ringtones (for Thai users), football/sports items (probably for Thai users) etc etc.

So it's a win-win all round. The hotel gets it's free logging software, the computer user gets quick-links to useful websites, those websites get more business and I get some money! (maybe...)

Anyway, I want to include as many useful links as possible. But I only know of a few companies who offer affiliate (commission-based) programs!

So, if there are any TV members who operate businesses of this type - and who would be willing to give me a commission on sales if a sale results from clicking on one of my toolbar buttons (ie via affiliate ID), then please do PM me and I'd be happy to include a link to your website on this toolbar.

Cheers

Simon

Can you send me some more info please? What is the target audience for the toolbar (Thai/ Foreign), What your penetration has been so far (no. of downloads), privacy policy.

Once I know some of the above or more I may be able to help.

Thanks

Maybe this might have to be discussed in PM - but I would like (sure others would too) to see a screen shot of the tool bar please.

Cuban, this is a screenshot of the toolbar.

The button images slowly cycle betwen English and Thai text (once per minute so as not to be obtrusive).

The left button has a dropdown menu with 'quicklinks' to topical Thai websites, (Thaivisa forum is the top link!). There are quick-links to other Thai forums, omline Thai dictionary, logger helpfile, view logged data, uninstall toolbar etc.

The image buttons link to websites which sell services/products that should be of interest to tourists in Thailand. I also recognise that many internet shops have a mainly Thai customer base. This is why I'm trying to find ringtone/logo/computer games companies in LoS who operate an affiliate scheme, but I havn't found any yet

I'm 'rolling out' this application right now, but it's a dynamic toolbar that I can update remotely from my own server. So I can add links to other websites or affiliates in the future.
