To expand on their mall analogy: There is a big difference between asking "what percentage of this week's mall visitors will return next week", and asking "when people visit this mall for the first time, what percentage

Their pitch to us was that if we just placed our site on ClickBank, then it would be ignored due to lack of track record. However, they said their relationships could get us noticed by large affiliates from day one. Does this sound like the
