That office is SICK! I wish I worked there! Maybe ill move to Seattle and see if I am good enough at ping pong to qualify for an interview! Hahahhaaaaa dude two week comment made me laugh to the must ALL be powered by Red Bull! Hahahahaha good stuff shoe….
Wow that Peter guy has a deep voice. Very sexy!
You’re lucky it didn’t rain cats and dogs when you dropped by the HasOffers office in Seattle. My girlfriend and I went to see the Space Needle a few weeks ago and it was raining so hard, we couldn’t see the view clearly. All in all, this is a cool clip. Kudos!
I beg to differ but Seattle residents buy more sunglasses per capita than any other city in the nation. So much for the myths of rain and clouds here. Seattle’s offical low and high temperatures are 0 (January 31, 1950) and 100 (July 20, 1994). Just don’t forget to bring your umbrella for occasional showers.
I’ve never in my life heard anyone try to argue that it doesn’t rain extensively in Seattle. Too funny.
Lol funny, claiming sales figures of sunglasses as a reason that it doesn’t rain. That point is equally valid to the claim that the big figure is caused by the inhabitants traveling to sunny places buy buying the shades in seattle and not on site.
Figures with out context means nothing.
I love these “how we work” videos. Also it’s great promotion for the company as they are now REAL and not some spammy network.
Looking good, HasOffers.
Lou
Great offer. I really wanted to try them
The lady in the spray tent definitely threw shoe off – his face at 9.40 when he actually walks in is priceless
That was hilarious! Awkward moment, not for the girl though. She didn’t look surprised at all. It’s probably normal for those guys to see someone using that spray booth wearing next to nothing.
LOL at 9:30 in the video.
Shoes like WTF
Wow great video. I love these go behinds u do shoe
Shoe you were sooo checking out the naked chick in the shower! hahahahahahahahahah, That was soo random!
She is wearing a bikini on. I can clearly see it behind the Has Offer blank out!
Oh, I thought she wasn’t wearing any. Anyway, that explains why she didn’t seem to mind having the guys see her like that.
Was that a naked woman in a tent?
Oh, it’s a spray on tan. People are definitely more open minded on the west coast.
As long as it doesn’t make you look like Snooki or The Situation, you’re definitely good to go.
epic! one of the coolest offices i’ve seen.
I love how the rooms are designed. They seem to be very welcoming and comfy, too! Is there a chance I could drop by the HasOffers offices and have a tour just like you did, Shoe? Love to have a go at the beer tap, too. Looks like they have draft beer in there.
So ehhh the nakid girl caught me totally by surprise. and ShoeMoney too by the look on his face LOL. Classic!
Wow is HasOffers hiring? Looks like a great place to work!
Jeremy your production quality is amazing on these videos. Going to contact you to see if we can get you down here to shoot one for us
I was surprised by the quality too. I really enjoyed watching it. A bit long though. Nice work, Jeremy!
Shoe, why not just provide a teaser for your behind-the-scenes vids ticking in at 5 minutes or less? Some people can’t seem to have the right amount of attention to sit through the whole thing. (Perhaps give the male members of your fan club a behind the scenes outtake of the tent activity as well?)
Congratulations to the Brown twins. They are truly building an impressive empire. Thanks for taking us behind the scenes shoe!
These behind the scenes videos you do are amazing Jeremy! Who do you use for production? Some hollywood company?
The lady in the spray tent definitely threw shoe off – his face at 9.40 when he actually walks in is priceless
Mark my words HasOffers will have marketshare and overthrow direct track by 2012. Its such a better platform.
Besides being home to the first-ever revolving resto in 1961, I know Seattle will also be the home of one of the most sought-after white label firm in the business. Is it true Starbucks also began in Seattle? Please do verify if you know the real deal.
I live here in Seattle and yes, Starbucks was started here, as well as Nordstrom. And it only really rains in the mid-fall and winter. We just tell the tourists that so they don’t move here
Sad that we need spray on tans at the workplace.
Cool video though. There are more and more has offers networks out there.
It’s kind of cool actually. You don’t get to see that in other workplaces. I’d like to have a pingpong table and spray tan booth in my office too!
What an awesome place to work, excited to see how this company does in the future
Is it just me or does anybody else think that the HasOffers logo seems to look like a cross between the logos of Facebook and Twitter?
Wouldn’t be a day at the office, until someone gets a spray tan! Shoe’s face is awesome during that whole thing
I love these behind the scenes videos. They give a a real sense of how a company operates. The culture there seems really fun.
I agree! I prefer to buy products that I’m more familiar with. I’m impressed with what I’ve seen so far. I wouldn’t mind having that platform do most of the technical stuff for me. I can’t wait to check it out.
When do we get the uncensored version?
Pretty sure that woman in the tent was a plant. When you compile your best videos, Jeremy, make sure to include your facial expression from 9:40 to 9:45. Epic!
Someone almost had an almost NSFW moment while touring the HasOffers offices…
Great video. Nice looking office!
Looks a great company, one bit had me laughing though.
“It took a long time, like a week and a half”
WTF. I’ve worked on systems where’s took 2 years to document.
HasOffers is almost effortless to use. I actually got my hands on it back in August when I was going to launch my own affiliate network. Setting up my CPA network was very smooth because everything comes already done with the software I’m getting. I did not have to design anything or even get a domain and it only took me three hours to get my CPA network up and running.
I think this is a very good opportunity for someone who is experienced at affiliate marketing but maybe not such a good idea for someone who is about to get involved, or has just become involved, in affiliate marketing. Not something first timers should delve into.
boom chica wowow
I thought the music was suddenly going to change to heavy wah-wah guitars and saxophones when Shoe entered the “Fitness Room.” Jeremy, why not “feature” the Playboy Mansion the next time around and have a peek at their “Fitness Room,” too? LOL
LOL! Nice comeback, baby!
Did you see his reaction? Even the other guy looked taken aback. Classic.
I love your content and I always learn something, but I always cringe because the sluts plastered all over this site is really trashy
I wouldn’t exactly call the bunnies trashy. And the semi-naked girl in the spray tent don’t fall in that category either.
Seriously, you can’t have hard feelings for the woman in the tent. She was just updating her Jersey Shore look. Get it? Hard feelings?
I once saw Snooki “flash” other Jersey Shore cast members when she was really wasted on Margaritas while watching MTV late at night. Believe me, what has been seen can not be unseen!
Funny awkward moment. I first thought was it was a prank but when the guy said nothing I figured it was for real. How’s that for a typical day at the office?
The system looks wonderful! Do you think it would be a good idea for stand-alone publishers, like writers or CMS coders to use it, this way bypassing middlemen like e-junkie?
Great video. I always like to see companies comin up. Great lookin team and no doubt the future at HasOffers is bright!
Cha Ching!!!!
I’d love to be part of that team. A workplace like that wouldn’t make me feel like I’m working at all.
Just like the most epic Confucius proverb, man. Their office just needs a decent basketball court and they’re definitely good to go. Hoops, anyone?
Hasoffers is doing it right really liked the behind the scenes. Currently running network with them there service is the best out there.
I think it’s great that they have more developers than sales people. Create the best apps and the sales will follow.
I thought I saw Frodo in hipster outfit there for a sec! LOL
I only recently got involved in affiliate marketing offers. I have plans of starting my own network a few months from now. This info couldn’t have been better timed. I’ll be using this hosted platform when I start my network.
Cool bunch of people. I like the office concept. I’m not a fan of cubicles either.
Me, too. Having no cubicles around means establishing a stronger communication link with your office mates. Whether you’re brainstorming for a new project or just choosing where to spend your TGIF round of drinks, it leads to a closer, more productive team. What do you think, Shoe?
I’m kind of ambivalent about cubicles. I’ve worked in one for over 5 years but I now work at home after my affiliate marketing programs took off. I like my home office better.
Their office just needs a decent basketball court and it would be perfect. Have you seen Zuckerberg’s office, Shoe? Man, that guy sure knew how to design his money nest! He has arcade games, Foosball, candy machines, pinball and pool tables. And I’m just talking about his office!
I like the 30-second pitch question you threw at the sales guys. Not everyone is good in giving elevator pitches but those two pretty much answered it well. Thanks for sharing this!
One quick query: Is Peter deliberately modulating his voice? Sounds sexy though. By the way, I’d love to try HasOffers’ software. My previous experience with a white label company is not that impressive and I’d like to make a better deal the next time around.
Yes. Does anybody think that he sounds vaguely like Seth McFarlane? It’s like Peter Griffin and that alien from American Dad combined (with a bit of Kathie Lee Gifford thrown in). ROFL
A perfect fit for the job.
Those 2 sales guys are good.
Was that a tanning tent? That was unexpected. LOL
I think it would BE great if our office had a transparent tent with a naked lady inside, too. ROFL. Reminds me of the episode of Family Guy though when Brian is supposed to break up with Jillian and ends up bumping uglies with her.
Do you actually get as orange as Snookie when you up the ante on spray tanning? Seriously? Love J-Wow and The Situation on the show. Jersey Shore is perhaps the best show to watch when you’re hammered. (And the Shoemoney Blog is the best resource page to browse when you’re looking for the best web marketing tricks.) Thanks a million, buddy!
Whoa! Was that a sideboob at 9:40? You should tag these posts as NSFW, brother. Nonetheless, you can always send them to me first if you’re having some suspicious material you’re about to publish. (wink)
Looks like the girl inside the tanning tent didn’t even have the slightest sign of alarm even when Shoe and his camera crew arrived. Classy, huh? LMAO
one for the books. i’m thinking of taking a leaf of their book by setting up tanning tent in my office. who needs a beach to get a nice tan, right?
You look tanned. Is that from the Crystal River trip?
Shoe may have had a go at the tanning tent, too. By the way, just booked a weekend Crystal River dive trip. We’re off to look for shipwrecks and I am so excited. Love ya, Shoe!
Love the shirt! Did they give you one for Free Shirt Friday?
I just the love the plain blue talkbox designs! Was this done by Logonerds? They sure are awesome.
Pretty sure it was done in house. When I asked them to help me upload my logo to my network they actual took my crappy looking logo and made me a new version of it, totally above and beyond what I had expected.
Office is cool, except the fitness area, (nude chick)
It’s so nice to see one of the most progressive white label software company getting featured in one of the most popular web marketing blogs. I like it how the HasOffers people are keeping the interview as informal as possible. No cubicles? Awesome! Hope to catch a few more vid like this over the week.
I have used the free version of Hasoffers but I do not have any experience with the other professional versions at all. I used the free version to launch a CPA site so that I could get affiliates for my friend’s products and she was going to pay me 10% of the sales. It took me three hours to build and customize the network and launched it with a press of a button. Easy as pie and super convenient for newbie and veteran web marketers alike.
Very timely. I’ve been looking for a platform that is easy to set up and use. This one looks promising.
Since I’ve started using HasOffers, they have updated my campaign setup a couple of times and added new features, but it is still very clean and to the point. You put in the name, description, tracking link, set your prices, geo-targeting, etc. and you have nothing else to do but lie back in style.
I was in roughly the same boat when I started my network, and I did the same thing with testing out HasOffers. Long story short, they have been great to work with and I haven’t had any issues whatsoever with tracking or things going down. It tracks better than DT does, and right on par with LinkTrust. Thanks a million for letting this out, Shoe. 5 stars!
Shoe, did you know that Seattle has the highest percentage of residents with a college degree or higher? Don’t worry, there are still fools behind the wheel and cluttering up the freeways. Nice video, buddy!
I signed up for the free trial a few months back. A friend told me about it seeing that I was stumped and all with my plans to create an affiliate program. I certainly didn’t expect that it was fairly easy to use. My program was up and running soon after I used the trial offer.
Goof for you. I am hearing a lot of flak from other affiliate marketers saying HO namedrops a lot. Is this true, Shoe? I wonder if it’s just a publicity thing though. ====> ++ Nic ++ <======
I think that a lot of the venom that has been spewed at HasOffers is due to the fact that they are offering their entry-level product for free. This means that the barrier of entry to creating a network has been lowered to almost nothing. I think there is some truth to this as well as some exaggeration. A network is based on trust and relationships above all else. It doesn’t matter what software they are using. Right, Jeremy?
The hard part would be getting advertisers and affiliates on board. Were there tools that helped you with that?
So have you upgraded to the Pro version already? My friend uses it and he seems happy with the results. He started using it for almost half a year now.
Looks interesting. Thanks for the albeit long review. Shoe, is it true that the Elite Retreat 7 spots are all taken?
It was worth the watch. Covered everything including that funny fitness room moment. I think those guys are really cool.
I am proud to say that I’m currently using Hasoffers tracking system for my online pastry shop and Amazon.com and I have to say they have been great to work with. Response time for problems I have had is amazing, tracking is great. Keep your fingers crossed for me, Jeremy.
I don’t require any further explanation, honey. They had me as soon as I read the free 1-month trial.
How would you rate the interface? I have plans of setting up an affiliate network and I need a platform that is fairly easy to use.
Check out the features. Looks friendly to me http://www.hasoffers.com/affiliate-tracking-user-interface
For a newbie, I think that this is a great place to start. Can we have another look at the tent scene once more? ** NYC Shoemoney Fan Club **
Jeremy, I do hope you will post more Shoemoney Stories in the future. That bathroom feature sure was funny! Much love from El Paso.
True to the core that affiliates need to invest good capital while starting off. However, as they offer networks having the right amount of oomph to become popular in public domain, it’s always beneficial for the member. Just remember to be diligent and your venture will flourish.
Good idea for company
Interesting. Generating stats from a network has always been tricky for me so I’m all for whatever tool that could help me with that.
Has anyone here had a successful experience at building their own CPA/Affiliate Venture with HasOffers and if so at what level? What particular tools have been employed for this? Prompt replies and answers greatly appreciated. Kudos in advance.
It’s very customizable so just check it out. It’s set up in a way so that you can easily customize the color design, upload your own logo, and choose how to setup your offers and accept new affiliate accounts, amongst so much else. It is as easy as it gets and even the most recent computer newbie can man the controls.
The bottomline is still this: It all boils down which of the two most popular web marketing strategies you can identify yourself with better — CPA or PPC. Ain’t that right, Jeremy?
I wanted to thank you for this great information!! I definitely enjoyed every bit of it and I have you bookmarked your blog to check out the new stuff you post in the future.
Great video shoe. But I think their website is not working correctly. TO be more specific on the affiliate registration part.
LMFAO still loving the way Jeremy moves to the left KNOWING the camera would have to pan around past the tan booth.
Jeremy was looking quite nervous at 9:40 when he saw that woman in the shower lol =D
“so how often do you use the spray tanning booth?”
ha ha …. epic!
Hey! Nothing like the naked babe in the fitness room.
Looks like an amazing place to work. Out of curiosity why do you use the flow player and not youtube? I notice a lot of people doing this, but don’t fully understand the rational.
A lot of interesting things found on your blogs, like the topic! The author thanks and success in the blog!
Thank You for such a great idea!….
Did Al gore actually forecast this week’s snow storms in his global warming journal?
Where can I find similar white corner desks like they have in the main work area? Anyone have any ideas?
