My name is Jamie and I specialise in affiliating for networks such as iPoker, OnGame and Party. In this blog I share my thoughts on the industry and some random stuff too. If you're looking for a deal Check out my site: iPokerVIP.net


Burnt Out

Feeling really burnt out and shit. Spending 10 hours a day on affiliate stuff is beginning to take its toll along with ‘uni’.

After I’ve paid out my subs I’m going to try and stay off a computer for 48 hours or something. Not sure how that will go…

On another note I feel quite good I’ve found a good contact who will hopefully help me further ipokervip and any other business in the future. He seems to get the drive and passion I have for this business as he has it himself and can relate to how I’ve got some ideas and despratley want to revolutionize the way things work. I always feel kind of stupid when sites I deal with are pretty content with gliding along and I’ve got all these ideas (some of which will be pretty poor I admit) and they’re just not really that interested.

The problem probably is that the staff aren’t given the monetary incentive to grow and expand. It wouldn’t matter what profit the room was making, as long as it wasn’t going broke – at the end of the day the manager’s and affiliate manager’s are still going to get paid the same amount. Its pretty messed up imo as the sites appreciate a significant % of their turnover comes from affiliates who are paid purely on commission but, they don’t think they should reward their staff on the same basis.

Anyway time for a break !
