Top Boating and Watersports Retailer, Overton’s, Makes Waves in the LinkConnector Network with New Campaign

With the New Overton’s Affiliate Marketing Campaign in LinkConnector, Affiliates Gain a Proven Offer in the Boating and Marine Industry.

CARY, NC — April 13, 2010 — LinkConnector (http://www.linkconnector.com/), a leading Affiliate Marketing Network with progressive solutions for merchants and affiliates, announced today that it has partnered with Overton’s (http://www.overtons.com), an exclusive boating and watersports retailer and Internet Top 500 Retailer (as part of Gander Direct Marketing Services, LLC), to expand the company’s reach through Affiliate Marketing. LinkConnector Affiliates will benefit from Overton’s large and frequently updated product feed and regularly distributed coupons and promotions.

“We really found LinkConnector’s Promotions Tool to be extremely valuable,” said Patrick Williams, Web Acquisition Manager at Gander Direct Marketing Services, LLC, which manages the websites for Overton’s and Gander Mountain. “Right in our Promo Manager, in the account interface, we can upload and manage all of our coupon codes, free shipping offers and other deals. These promotions then become readily available to our affiliate partners to use through the Promotions Feed. Using these LinkConnector tools, we get much more mileage out of the promotions we run with no added work.”

The new Overton’s Campaign in LinkConnector gives affiliates an opportunity to earn 4% per sale, with an average sale amount of about $150. Overton’s also provides LinkConnector Affiliates with two exclusive consumer promotions. One offers consumers free shipping on orders over $100 and the other offers $5 off of every $50 spent (up to $40 off). These two exclusive promotions enable affiliates to provide extra value when referring shoppers to Overton’s. Affiliates will earn commissions on Gift Card purchases, and they will have access to a large and frequently updated product feed. The Overton’s Campaign allows a wide variety of affiliate promotional methods including Email, Search Engine, Social Media and Coupon Marketing. The campaign has only a few SEM restrictions and allows direct linking from any search engine. Overton’s also gives affiliates the choice between running a Naked Link® or Standard Campaign.

The month of April begins the peak season for Overton’s, so affiliate partners should be able to launch their promotions now and profit. “We expect the new Overton’s Campaign to begin with a bang, and grow rapidly in the Network,” said Jackie Bates, LinkConnector’s Director of Marketing. “Working with an established retailer like Overton’s, during their peak summer season, will give affiliates an immediate foothold.”
