There are a few different parameters set up to ensure you receive credit for your customer. 1) You will be given a unique URL specifically to you. This is the only link that will track your sales. Once clicked, this URL activates a tracking cookie that is valid for 7 days. A tracking cookie is a digital footprint to trace back to your account for credit of the sale. If Your potential customer creates an account or makes a purchase within that 7 day period using that link, the accounts will be automatically connected. Encouraging your customer to create an account before they purchase immediately links your accounts. After that 7 days your potential client can re-click your unique URL or you can do the step below. 2) However, you can also give your potential client your name and referral code and we will process the sale on our end connecting your accounts (no matter the time frame past the 7 days). You will find your referral code after the = sign in your URL. For example if my Referral Program URL was www.BallantyneGear.com=TestABC, TestABC would be my referral code I would give with my name. 3) Many times Ballantyne Gear creates a custom quote for clients and sends that quote via email to the customer to complete the transaction. We will always ask if they were referred to us and ask for their Referral Partner's name and code. You can track your sales and commissions in your dashboard, but feel free to follow up with Ballantyne Gear and/or your customer.
