I was talking to the affiliate team over at Rocket Profit about some of the new offers they are running that looked pretty attractive to us. One thing I really like about a company like rocket profit is how open they are with lines of communication to affiliates. Sometimes the difference between failure and success can be some tips from your affiliate manager. Anyway they were asking me why I no longer made videos like my one on directories and also the one I did on the DMCA stuff with ChrisR.
Well basically I just got tiered of transcoding video from my camera over to my mac. It takes forever… you can only transcode in real time and its a pain in the ass. I also told them I was waiting on getting a new camera with a built in hard drive that was Mac compatible but being they were so new I was not sure if they had been really tested that well. We talked a little more then the next day they sent me some info on new HD Cameras and specifically information about the Canon HG10. This camera seemed to fit the bill. It recorded in quicktime format and was totally compatible with MacOSX Leopard. It also has a huge hard drive that can record over 12 hours of footage and has regular USB 2.0 jacks. It also has a external microphone port. These were all items that are very important to me. So I wrote back and said that looked good and I was going to pick one up… then I got a quick email saying to chill for a few days… ok
WELL SURPRISE. Yesterday I got one on my door step from amazon courtesy of Rocket Profit. You guys kick ass! Thanks a lot. I am really looking forward to making some cool videos with this!
ALSO just by coincidence Rocket Profit was in que for this weeks Free Shirt Friday post.

Hi i am using rocket profit to earn for the last 2 days with my blog http://www.mywebmoney.wordpress.com
I hear good stuff about them besides Pepperjam affiliate network. Probably I will give them a try soon besides my other networks I am using at the moment.
nice … they get their advertisement and you get a sweet camera. Works out well for both.
Cool, good job. Sometimes the right plug on the right blog is all it takes eh!
Really nice and cheap way from them to get free inlinks and new customers.. But I bet it was worth it!
Their camera, your post = lots of new rocket users, including me.
I wish I got that kinda perks from companies
I laughed so EFFEN hard at the first picture of you holding the box. HAHAHAH Omg.
ya I am really loving it!
maybe
Hmm looks like I will have to check it out along with pepperjam.
Damn nice surprise gift!
*LOL* when you think about it. it is worth the price for the exposure.
Talk about a BOMB ass surprise! Too bad Rocket Profit lost on getting 2 posts

So what kind of link bait do I need to toss out there to you Shoe to get you do an article on me? Maybe invite you to a Super Bowl tailgate party? Oh wait, . Oh well, I better come up with something better than a video camera…
Sounds promising, what kind of products have you found to be most profitable over at Rocket Proftit..?
wow…. lucky you
Im telling you man, you better get your name around the car business so you can start getting free car fridays going… haha
Rocket Profit is seriously one of my favorites affiliate. They do an awesome job with everything. Congradulation on the camera and hopefully you can put it to use more often.
Talk about affiliate appreciation! Too often you hear about affiliate networks screwing over their affiliates, announcing some new tracking issue, etc, etc.
How often do you hear stuff like this about your favorite affiliate network? Never. I’m sold. I know obviously RocketProfit isn’t going to give all of us sweet cameras. But their attention to their top affiliates says volumes!

I am glad I’ve joined Rocket Profit. One of my favourites
Wow, earlier today I was speaking with Loren from Rocketprofit about joining. She was very nice, sent me a link to join with an extra incentive and just sent me an email that she’s getting me approved. Then I come to see what Shoe is doing and read this. I am really looking forward to working with them.
Hey Jeremy – Shoemoney has always been one of our favorite sites. We hope you enjoy the camera. The entire RocketProfit staff is looking forward to some great new videos!
Oh man I want that camera.
Bought the exact same camera earlier this week. Great camera, although it still takes a while to download stuff from it, but none the less iMovie 08 does it all, no stuffing around with formats, it just appears in beautiful 1080p
Shoe, I was browsing through their website and noticed a link back to shoemoney.com under “Internet Marketing Resources & Tools”, you must have made them a pretty penny.
Cool, I want a camera too. But congratulations with your new camera. Have fun with it.
why do the rich get richer and the poor get poorer? same concept.. sorta lol
that was nice of them. looks like they got a nice plug on your blog as well.
Yes! Shoe that picture is great. It truly shows how excited you are about this product and the company! Yay!
Wow that was extremely nice and generous of RocketProfit! They sound like a great company, too, I’m definitely going to check it out. Thanks!
Pretty nice camera Shoe! This guy is jealous. :p
Ya i just cant deal with tape cameras anymore! I love the hd!
Good for you!
I would like a pony, pony.com
LOL
he-he
……………lucky …………
I’m going to have to try rocketprofit out I have been uisng cj.com here lately.
Nice incentive! that’s a great freebie. Rocket Profit now rule in my books to, even thought I’ve never used them! although I am signed up. Nice shirt to.
I gotta say that 3rd picture of you with the camera made me spew out the orange juice man. It was hilarious. I know you chuckled when you first uploaded that pic. I’m affiliated with RocketProfit too and your dead on about them being a great network.
RocketProfit does not accept me because I’m from Romania (Europe) and I hate the for that !
You really don’t know?
This post is the reason…
Does this mean Rocket Profit have technically *purchased* a link from Shoe? Bad affiliate network, bad!
Nice camera.
Rich get richer, poor get poorer. Its the way the world turns, live with it.
remember this?:http://www.shoemoney.com/2006/04/13/azoogleads-rock-my-socks/
I got the HG20 and it’s seriously a badass camera. Some people have dome some crazy good stuff with it and the HG10 is pretty much the same camera, but with a hard drive instead of tape. Cool stuff. I’m sure you’ll dig it.
i use rocketprofit so far they are great!
.
Why is there a Lamp, Plant and Picture Frames on to of the dresser partially covering the mirror ???
.
This really worries SearchEnginesWEB – there is something fishy going in that room!
.
damn fishy
Rocket Profit seems like a company that knows how to take care of it’s people and prospects. Around Christmas, I received a $10 Starbucks gift card, and a nice letter saying looking forward to being your affiliate network of choice in 2008, or something to that effect. I still have the letter and will be using them once I set up a few affiliate sites in this up coming year.
Why do the people who need free stuff the least get all the free stuff?
“Ride the Rocket”
damn straight.
shoe money u rock and your website too
The camera – nice linkbait.
Can’t wait to watch your next video then
Yes, I got the same feeling.
You really do look happy with yourself.
How good is Rocket Profit Shoe?
Dang Shoe, you look pretty happy with yourself. Maybe I’ll get in on the Rocket Profit fun.
Ok, thats a nice camera.
Can I have one?
youtube better get some more bandwidth…
Yeah – even more amazing is the fact that nobody read (spelled) the title…
(btw, that title implies J has an OLD afflilfati network as well – the article doesn’t explain why he switched – other than being blatantly bribed
).
So, I’m going to chill out a few days now – waiting for his copy-writing offer. And T-shirt, of course. LOL

So, just like Jeremy, I’m going to chill now for a few days. Waiting for his copy-writing offer. And T-shirt, of course LOL
That was nice of them.
Damn, buy shoemoney somthing worth a few $100 — and you get an AMAZING advertisment for your company! Let’s see some more videos now shoe! they rock.

Shoe’s sooo happy coz he’s got a new camera hehe! WTG!! Enjoy it!
Fake. Not a real camera. Shoe is holding a shoe.

That Camera has already paid for itself, lol.
