Affiliates FAQs

WHO CAN JOIN THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM AND WHY?
There are various types of people who are involved in affiliations:

• Companies who wish to build a long-term relation with their clients searching for ways to extend their business activities according to customer demand. These are predominantly property agents willing to enter new markets but can also be companies from related businesses willing to extend the range of services they provide.

• People who have skills to convince people and wish to be self-employed and enjoy their hobby as a full-time job.

• Computer specialists or website owners who build their own websites with the purpose of becoming affiliate partners with established companies.

HOW DOES THE AFFILIATE PROGRAMME WORK?
The affiliate programme is based on pay-per-sale which can be assessed as payments per completion on each property sale. There are also a number of other types of more complicated calculations of commission payments. The above mentioned method pay-per-sale is one of the most commonly used.

Payment per sale involves the affiliate to do some efforts to convince the potential buyers to enquire with Lupain Properties and help make a sale. This type of affiliation are highest but require more time and involvement in the sales process.

When starting the international affiliation you should start promoting your new property portfolio of Tenerife properties or website in order to attract clients. It is not very easy to get traffic to your website as it needs to be with a lot of information in order to be found in the search engines. Alternatively, you should plan marketing activities to promote your new overseas Tenerife property listings, website or the services you provide in order to attract clients. So, affiliation requires dedication and planning as well as strategic development of your own business in order to work properly.

WHAT FEATURES OR AIDS DOES THE AFFILIATE PROGRAMME OFFER?
This affiliate program will allow you access to our affiliate admin panel, which is currently in the design stage, however when finished this will give you a full set of advanced features at your finger tips and will include;

+ XML feed to upload our full list of properties in one easy and quick process.

+ An advanced affiliate property search, we have applied this to our own admin panel and it has been of great help in finding very specific requirements for clients. This will allow you to search for criteria such as which views the property has, if the property has disabled access, if the property has a garden and / or swimming pool etc. as well as the stand search criteria.

+ Allow you to send links of pictures of properties that suite your clients to build interest.

+ Monthly newsletter with updates of newly added properties and special offers etc.

We hope this will help you in promoting overseas properties in Tenerife to generate leads and on each sale to any clients sent to us from you, you will receive 50% of the commission.

We have now set up a price check and price guarantee to offer clients, which guarantees that our properties are lower than any other estate agent in Tenerife and if at any time a property is lower with another estate agent on the island we will match the price and your client will receive 3,000€ cash back on completion of the sale. This means you can not only offer an overseas property service but also offer these properties at the lowest rates possible.

> For further details of this guarantee please visit our Price Guarantee Page.

At present we are also running a ‘spring sale’, in which we have further reduced some of our properties. Our Property Consultants have worked hard in the last couple of months to offer you a sale on many of our properties. Our Property Consultants have contacted many sellers and have managed to get several properties at a reduced asking price by at least 10%.

> For listings of these properties please visit our Summer Sales Page.
