Any of you guys send traffic to physical goods, like TVs and cameras and stuff? I was just wondering what your experience was like with this sort of thing. Worth it?
Anybody here push physical goods?

I think a lot of guys here push diet pills, so those are physical goods. Also the as seen on tv market is very good.
A lot of people are leaving money on the table by not pushing physical products in addition to the CPA offers.
Single commissions can run in the $xxx range for one sale if you promote high-ticket items. ShareASale and CJ are both full of merchants with trusted brands and stores that people willingly buy from.

I push Tshirts with my bluespamming stuff from time to time.
Usually topical stuff at events (i.e. concerts = tshirts from the band, nerd conventions = anime & Star Wars crap, etc).
I also generally pop in an aff link to a physical product if I can whenever I talk about a certain product on a forum.
It's pretty interesting how many people in the general public are grossly unaware of affiliate marketing.

I'm trying to come up with a strategy on how to "do it". I was thinking going through a companies inventory (best buy, tiger direct, etc) and direct linking to the proper landing pages...can you recommend any good resources on how to go this route? Right now I'm trying to grind it out running polls on the content network, but I'm not too excited about it...
If your not to technically inclined, signup to the big aggregator sites, like sharasale. They usually have tools to help you generate pages, that deep link to products, based upon the hundreds of thousands of feeds available. It's all push button sort of stuff...
I've been a member of shareasale for a while. They may not have the prettiest site in the world but they have a ton of offers that you won't find on most other 'cookie cutter' networks.
I've never promoted "real" products either, but always had my eye on these guys. The payouts generally look less appealing than straight up lead gen on the other networks. Thats what held me back.
A common issue with the other networks is shaving. Do any of you know how bad the shaving is with networks like CJ and Shareasale? I'd imagine it would be lower or non-existant, but hell what do I know.

I don't think I've had shaving issues with CJ. I've had they take too fucking long to send a payment issues, but as it's my beer-and-skittles-money instead of rent-money I don't really care when it arrives... so long as it does.
I haven't used Shareasale, but I keep getting told I'm an idiot for not using them, so that's almost a pretty good endorsement.
I've seen there interface too. It looks pretty good and fairly friendly.

Sure, they look unappealing... until you realize that 5 - 10% payout is five or ten percent of a couple hundred bucks or more. Depending on what you're promoting, obviously.
