I’ve been hoping for such a program ever since I got my mac and started “preaching” to friends and family. So far I’ve sold 2 iMacs and 2 MacBooks. By my calculations I should have earned at LEAST an iPhone, right??

Why should Apple pay me anything? Mac people don’t need any incentive program to tell people how much superior their computer is to Windows. We already annoy PC users enough as it is.

TiVo has a rewards program.When anyone signs up for new service, they may enter the email address of the person who recommended it, and that person will receive points towards free merchandise. I am always extolling the value of TiVo over other DVRs. I really love my TiVo. But I have never gotten a single point after 3 years, even though I am sure I have swayed many people to buy. They just didn’t think to credit me when signing up, or maybe they didn’t know my email address.I certainly wouldn’t make a big deal with anybody about giving me credit if they happened to purchase a product that I was endorsing. It makes my opinion seem less honest and objective.

vend but aren’t a vendor it’s a practical solution.
I’m an ACN member, mainly for the Apple
affiliation, but it’s nice to know that these kinds of services are available. If you want to join ACN it’s pretty easy and a good way to leverage your certification needs- I’d be happy to talk to anyone about the program -esp. if you’re an independent professional like me. (lowengard(at)mac.com)

I remember reading about it, and wanting to participate, but I couldn’t because I had applied for a job at Apple recently, and that disqualified me. I was curious recently if the program was still around, but I couldn’t remember exactly what it was called, and couldn’t find anything through searching. I wonder if any other readers can confirm what I’m talking about?

It’s a great idea. IIRC, Apple actually toyed around with this a while back and then decided that making us Mac zealots even more fanatical (in pursuit of cash) was more likely to freak people out than to convert them.

(recall the story of Howard Dean and the orange hats)

They don’t pay much (usually just 1% but sometimes there are promotional periods that pay more) but if you are helping a friend order all it takes is a click through their website to get some $$$ back.

Over the last two years I’ve earned close to $2000 a portion of which from helping friends with their PC and Mac purchases.

The funds are available for a paypal or printed check transfer usually 90 days after the sale.
