I’ve been using SaS for a couple of month’s now, and I have to say, I’m very impressed. ShareaSale has an excellent selection of smaller advertisers, companies I really like to work with in the marketing realm. Smaller businesses really have an excellent selling position, and are almost always less competitive in the affiliate marketing realm.

Their only real problem I see right now is the lack of functionality in the reporting tools. The “Today’s Stats” for previous days only lists a few advertisers, not all of them. This is not a difficult problem to remedy, and should have been done before the tool was even released.

I would love to see ShareaSale provide more information about their merchants, especially how they feel about them. Based on the websites current selling ability, I would like to see a metric used to guide marketers in choosing merchants.

ShareaSale has a great thing going, and my company will really be promoting programs over the next six weeks, but I would love to see them help the Super Affiliates (and everyone, really) in selecting partners.

Just weeks after my review of ShareaSale, they lay out enough enhancements to require a new review. While that will have to wait until I finish up my reviews of Performics, Avantlink, adZoogle, and Kolimbo (among other, smaller groups), I thought I would touch on the ShareaSale enhancements.

As shown above, ShareaSale added a much needed enhancement to their reporting display. This allows for the selection of individual advertisers and a date range to process the reports. While still in its early stages, this tool has proven to be very helpful. Sort by individual advertisers, or select a related group to compare sales numbers among them.

I started using ShareASale.com most recently, following CJ.com, Linkshare, Performics, Clickbank, and In-House programs. I hadn’t been in the market for anything really being pushed by ShareASale, but that all changed really fast. I started because I wanted to cross promote from our small t-shirt store to others that carry hundreds of t-shirts. The problem was, I needed to find more than just one site, and did not want to spend a lot of time looking around for a bunch of them individually. I ended up finding a t-shirt store that was using ShareASale, and decided to give it a try.
