Does anyone know of (or have, for you network reps) an affiliate program for people looking to open a franchise? My last offer I ran on this just fucked me over majorly, on the 2 networks I ran it through - Basically they cut both of the networks off this weekend (yes, during the weekend) to "analyze quality", and apparently didn't bother to tell that to either network. The franchise listing/lead gathering company is owned by a major player in the ad world, and I didn't expect this shit from an established, reputable company.
While one network is one that I just joined to run the offer, the other is a very large, established network, that sent me a private offer for the program since I'm a top affiliate. The offer company also apparently didn't like that I was using search to drive traffic (and said they don't allow those types of "media buys"), while both networks said that search was allowed, and one even passed along search restrictions from the offer (which were followed exactly). Normally I'd blame the network for these issues, but when both networks tell me that they had received no notification about the offer being pulled, I have to believe it's the merchant at fault.
Anyway, back to the question - I'm looking for a lead-based (confirmed, qualified leads are fine with me) program dealing with franchises, and not some crap Biz-Op offers. Any suggestions/offers?
