Credit Where Credit is Due - iiRobotics
I'm watching the United Youth Team play against Crewe in the fourth round of the Youth FA Cup and the phone goes. I've got a migraine from hell - and its 8:15 PM - do I answer it?
Well I did and it was the MD of iiRobotics wanting to talk about a post I made on here about their affiliate programme where I saw a transaction disappear which made me post my thoughts and pull back my promotion. Also it appeared they spammed my site and Facebook group - he assured me they didn't. He also gave me the run down of the ethics of the business and how they tried to communicate with their customer base and affiliates (I missed that latter bit - I was freeking hectic about that time though!).
Well my old man always said "turn every threat into an opportunity" and as I work heavily in the toy robot industry it looks like we'll be working closely together on the new robots coming out this year. (Wes - this isn't the post you're looking for ;-) )
I wonder how many MD of merchants would call you up at 8:15 PM asking to talk about your bitter views of them. Ok, apart from Zak?
If you did want a toy robot affiliate programme then give them a go.
p.s. that is an affiliate link above - I should be watching the football you know!
