Advantages for You
We know you have a choice of affiliate programs to join, as well as a choice of which affiliates to feature most prominently on your site. Ultimately, a site is most likely to feature those affiliates providing the best economic opportunity consistent with the site's image and traffic demographics.
We believe that affiliation with Boscov's provides your site with a number of advantages:
1. Great Shopping Experience. Boscov's is widely known for everyone of its stores offering a great shopping experience. Famous brands, great values, and shopping fun are what have made Boscov's the largest family owned department store in the country. These same attributes are available online and create a great place for you to direct your traffic.
2. Widely Trusted Name. The most successful online retailers have been those companies providing a name that shoppers trust. Boscov's enjoys a long history of customer loyalty and trust. Within its prime market territory, stretching up the East Coast from Maryland to New York, Boscov's is well known by generations of shoppers. As shoppers in this area moved to other areas of the country, Boscov's reputation has spread far and wide. Boscov's has charge card holders resident in many of the states throughout the country. And, Boscov's Online has made it easy for loyal customers outside the Mid Atlantic region to continue to enjoy the Boscov's shopping experience.
3. Very broad product offering. Few—if any—sites online offer a broader array of famous brands, merchandise categories, or products. From fashions for every member of the family to furniture and accessories for every room of the house. From sporting goods for every season to electronics for every need. From great cosmetics and fragrances to collectibles of all types. Boscov's has the merchandise that will delight visitors from your site.
4. High dollar purchases by your traffic. Because of the breadth of merchandise and famous brands (like Liz Claiborne, Tommy Hilfiger, Panasonic, Lenox, Waterford Crystal, Whirlpool, etc.), your visitors will find shopping at Boscov's Online to be very convenient. Great values throughout the online store (including the recently opened Outlet Center), coupled with a single shipping charge no matter how many goods are purchased on a visit, result in shoppers loading up on great values. It is not unusual for a shopper to purchase as many as six items, and sometimes even more than a dozen items, on a single visit. Those full shopping bags, when created from traffic directed from your site, can earn you significant dollars.
5. Excellent commission structure. You may find a commission rate that is higher on a specific type of merchandise, but we don't think you are likely to find a better commission rate over such a broad range of merchandise and famous brands. And, our single rate structure makes it easy for you to promote the goods that are most relevant to a given section of your site. Also, keep in mind that our commissions are just one of the benefits you will get. Your traffic can also make you eligible for special bonuses that can add to your earnings.
Here is the bottom line for you. You can earn a commission of over $50 when one of the visitors from your site makes a bonafide $1000 aggregate purchase, an occurrence that the Boscov's site experiences from time to time. You earn a commission of almost $4 each time one of your visitors from your site makes just an average purchase. And with every bonafide purchase that is made, no matter what the size, you also become eligible for one of our monthly bonus awards.
Now the number of transactions generated by your site will vary dependent on the quality and quality of traffic to your site, and the extent of your promotion of Boscov's Online. And the average transaction size will vary by season, by quality of the traffic you send, and by the nature of the goods you promote. So we cannot guarantee the commission revenue you will generate. But, we are confident that an affiliate relationship with Boscov's is one of your best options for monetizing traffic to your site.
