HOW MUCH CAN I EARN?

HOW MUCH CAN I EARN?

Okay. You understand the idea. Now show me the money.

You have read how ShareMerchant works.

You understand that the Freak Sites sell real advertising products called Parking Spots.

You understand that affiliate registrations do not create commissions.

Qualifying product purchases create the revenue.

So now we can get to the question everybody eventually wants answered:

“Okay, John. How much can I actually earn?”

I have no idea.

Seriously.

You might earn nothing.

But I can show you the math.

And this is the page where the math starts getting interesting.


START WITH SEVEN DOLLARS

A standard Freak Sites Parking Spot currently costs $7.

The current affiliate structure can pay qualifying purchases through five connected positions:

PositionRateOne $7 Parking Spot
Direct Affiliate20%$1.40
First Connected Position15%$1.05
Second Connected Position10%$0.70
Third Connected Position5%$0.35
Fourth Connected Position5%$0.35

That is a potential affiliate distribution of:

$3.85 FROM ONE $7 QUALIFYING PURCHASE.

One person does not receive all five commissions.

The applicable commissions are distributed through the properly connected affiliate path.

But staring at one transaction is not particularly interesting.

So let’s stop doing that.


WHAT DOES DIRECT VOLUME LOOK LIKE?

If you are the direct affiliate, your current commission on a standard $7 Parking Spot is $1.40.

Qualifying PurchasesYour Direct Commission
1$1.40
10$14
100$140
1,000$1,400
10,000$14,000
100,000$140,000
1,000,000$1,400,000

One sale?

$1.40.

Go buy half a cup of coffee. 😂

One million qualifying sales?

$1.4 million.

Same product.

Same commission.

Different volume.

No, I am not telling you that you are going to sell a million Parking Spots.

You clicked How Much Can I Earn?

I’m showing you the math.


HERE IS THE ENTIRE SCALE TABLE

This is where thirty-five cents stops looking like thirty-five cents.

Qualifying Purchases20% Direct15% Connected10% Connected5% Connected
10$14$10.50$7$3.50
100$140$105$70$35
1,000$1,400$1,050$700$350
10,000$14,000$10,500$7,000$3,500
100,000$140,000$105,000$70,000$35,000
1,000,000$1,400,000$1,050,000$700,000$350,000

Read that last line again.

A 5% commission on a seven-dollar product is only thirty-five cents.

At one million qualifying purchases:

THIRTY-FIVE CENTS BECOMES $350,000.

Is one million purchases easy?

Of course not.

Is it guaranteed?

Of course not.

Is thirty-five cents automatically insignificant because it is thirty-five cents?

No.

That depends on how many times it happens.


NOW LET’S USE THE WHOLE ENGINE

The previous table looks at each commission position separately.

But that is not why I built a multi-tier Affiliate Program.

The idea is that qualifying product activity can happen in different connected parts of the same affiliate structure.

So let’s make up a completely hypothetical month.

SCENARIO A — SMALL ACTIVE DISTRIBUTION

PositionPurchasesCommission EachYour Commission
Direct100$1.40$140
15% Connected250$1.05$262.50
10% Connected500$0.70$350
5% Connected1,000$0.35$350
5% Connected1,000$0.35$350

TOTAL: $1,452.50

Interesting.

But now let’s do something incredibly complicated.

Multiply it by ten. 😂

SCENARIO B — SAME MIX. 10× THE ACTIVITY.

PositionPurchasesYour Commission
Direct1,000$1,400
15% Connected2,500$2,625
10% Connected5,000$3,500
5% Connected10,000$3,500
5% Connected10,000$3,500

TOTAL: $14,525

Same seven-dollar product.

Same commission percentages.

Same distribution pattern.

Ten times the activity.

SCENARIO C — NOW MULTIPLY THE ORIGINAL EXAMPLE BY 100

PositionPurchasesYour Commission
Direct10,000$14,000
15% Connected25,000$26,250
10% Connected50,000$35,000
5% Connected100,000$35,000
5% Connected100,000$35,000

TOTAL: $145,250

There is your big number.

Did I say you are going to earn $145,250?

No.

I took the first completely hypothetical distribution example and multiplied the activity by 100.

That’s it.

This is a math page, not a fortune teller.


WHAT COULD ONE PRODUCTIVE PERSON MEAN?

This is one of the reasons the Influencer Playbook exists.

Suppose you introduce somebody who already has distribution.

Maybe that person has:

  • an email list;
  • a large social following;
  • a Facebook group;
  • a YouTube channel;
  • a customer database;
  • a club;
  • an association;
  • or simply access to a market you don’t have.

Suppose that person is directly connected to you and their qualifying product activity places you in the current 15% connected position.

Their Qualifying PurchasesYour 15% Connected Commission
100$105
1,000$1,050
10,000$10,500
50,000$52,500
100,000$105,000

Does somebody having 900,000 followers mean they will generate 50,000 Parking Spot purchases?

Absolutely not.

They might generate zero.

But now you can see why finding one person with real distribution can potentially matter more than obsessing over one $1.40 commission.

Want the strategy behind that?

WHAT IF SOMEBODY BUYS MORE THAN ONE?

So far, most of this math quietly assumes that one person buys one Parking Spot.

Why?

A car dealer could use multiple Parking Spots.

A vacation-rental operator could advertise multiple properties.

A race company could create Parking Spots around multiple races.

A creator could build an entire Channel.

A business could promote different products, services, events or stories.

And one person might legitimately participate on more than one Freak Site.

One customer does not necessarily mean one transaction.

That’s important when you start playing with the numbers.


LET’S FREAK OUT FOR A MINUTE

This is ShareMerchant.

So we might as well do it.

Imagine that someday the Freak Sites collectively processed 1,000,000 standard $7 Parking Spot purchases.

Not your sales.

Not one affiliate’s sales.

Total network product volume.

1,000,000 × $7 = $7,000,000 IN PRODUCT SALES

At the current affiliate percentages, if every purchase were properly connected through all five eligible affiliate positions, the potential affiliate distribution across the network would be:

Affiliate PositionPotential Network Distribution
20% Direct$1,400,000
15% Connected$1,050,000
10% Connected$700,000
5% Connected$350,000
5% Connected$350,000

TOTAL POTENTIAL AFFILIATE DISTRIBUTION: $3,850,000

From a seven-dollar product.

Now that is the part people miss when they look at seven dollars and laugh.

Seven dollars is not necessarily the business.

Seven dollars is the unit.

What happens to the unit depends on how much real product activity the network eventually creates.


NOW YOU UNDERSTAND WHY I BUILT THE TIERS

Facebook gets paid when somebody buys advertising.

Google gets paid when somebody buys advertising.

X gets paid when somebody buys advertising.

Those companies built enormous businesses by processing huge amounts of activity across platforms used by other people.

You can tell 900 friends:

“Find me on Facebook.”

If some of those people eventually spend money advertising on Facebook, you normally receive:

$0.00

Meta keeps the advertising revenue.

That’s their business model.

I decided to build mine differently.

If qualifying product activity happens through the affiliate distribution you helped create, part of that revenue can flow back through the connected affiliate structure.

That’s the Income Engine.

Want the deeper explanation behind the multi-tier structure and why I built it this way?

SO…HOW MUCH CAN YOU EARN?

I still don’t know.

You could join and never generate a single qualifying purchase.

$0.

You could make ten direct sales.

$14.

You could create steady direct activity.

You could introduce somebody who creates considerably more activity than you do.

You could develop connected activity across multiple positions.

You could participate across multiple Freak Sites.

Or absolutely nothing could happen.

That’s business.

But don’t look at a $1.40 commission and automatically decide you have discovered the ceiling.

You have only discovered:

what one transaction pays.

The rest is:

PRODUCT × ACTIVITY × DISTRIBUTION × SCALE.

Now you know why I call it an Income Engine.


FOR THE LAWYERS

The Freak Sites Affiliate Program is free to join. Commissions are paid only on qualifying purchases that are properly tracked and attributed under the current Affiliate Program terms. Affiliate registration by itself creates no commission. Product pricing, commission percentages, connected positions, eligibility requirements, payout requirements and program terms may change.

All numerical examples, tables and scenarios on this page are hypothetical arithmetic illustrations only. They are provided to demonstrate how the current commission percentages mathematically respond to different levels of qualifying product activity. They are not earnings claims, earnings projections, income forecasts, promises or guarantees that any particular level of sales, customers, affiliates, Parking Spots, network activity or commissions will occur.

The examples involving 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000 or other large numbers of qualifying purchases are intentionally used to illustrate scale and should not be interpreted as representations of typical, expected or likely results. Actual results depend on many factors and may be zero.

References to influencers, social-media audiences, organizations, connected affiliates and other distribution sources do not imply that audience size will produce purchases or commissions. A large audience can generate little or no qualifying product activity.

Parking Spots are advertising and publishing products. They should be purchased because the purchaser wants the underlying advertising or publishing product—not because of an expectation of affiliate income.
