New emails now live!

How many of you out there read our teaser-newsletter regarding modifications to our new Member`s Area but thought that all these changes were probably still months away from actually taking place? We`ll if you did think this, then you were wrong! Because this week we`re delighted to announce that our new Member Emails have actually GONE LIVE and are being extremely well-received by the public.

Having been launched a little under a week ago, over the past few days we`ve received some outstanding customer feedback with members actually praising our new postcard-like emails for their clarity, style and content - which was in fact, the aim of this project. Because here at Bone Fish Ltd we believe that the single most direct way of reaching members is through email communications, and therefore, it was absolutely imperative that we got it spot on.

As such, these Member Emails are now theme-based (gay, lesbian, adult and romance), which enables them to reach their target-market in a much more effective manner than their predecessors. What`s more, not only have these emails been designed with specific audiences in mind, but they also include much more relevant information to entice customers to come back to the site time-and-time again.

An example of this is the inclusion of snippets of messages that are in member inboxes to encourage the receiver to login and maybe subscribe to the service to enable them to get back to the members that take their fancy. It goes without saying that from now on with all our email communications, we will always endeavour to entice members to sign up and shed out a few pennies for a more comprehensive networking experience!

Not only that, but all new emails now also have direct links to the sections of the site in question. This ultimately ensures that they find their away around (especially the payment pages) with extreme ease at the touch of a button.

And that`s not the only piece of news for this week neither. You`ll be please to know that at the same time as our Member Emails were launched, Bone Fish Ltd received confirmation of it`s accreditation with Habeus. For those that are new to the industry, this essentially means that a minimum percentage of emails are guaranteed to make it into member inboxes on a daily basis.

That`s about it. We`re hoping that both our association with Habeus and the launch of our new Member Emails are going to make all the difference - not only to those that are signed up to the service, but also to your sales and commissions. Let`s see!

Until next week...

Kindest regards,


The Bone Fish Affiliate Team


Pay Day!

You`ll be pleased to know that it`s nearly that time of the month again - Bone Fish Pay Day! As such, we`d like to inform you that if you`ve chosen to receive your commissions via a BACS bank transfer, then the funds will be with you around Tuesday of next week - on the 8th of the month - which is much, much earlier than our typical 16th of the month!

With this in mind and considering the absolutely impressive time frame once again, those of you that have not opted for this method of payment might like to reconsider the next time around - especially if you`re being paid by cheque, which this month (horror of horrors), won`t actually be in your possession until approximately the 17th.

What`s more, a BACS bank transfer is indisputably the fastest and safest way to get your hard-earned cash into your hands RIGHT AWAY - and we mustn`t forget that at present, there are actually no transfer charges for UK account holders neither.

So come on... half the time in which you receive your commissions and bonuses by opting for payment via bank transfer instead!

Nevertheless, if (for any reason) you`d rather not be paid via BACS, then we`d like to suggest that you consider choosing PayPal instead. Monies distributed via PayPal are normally received relatively quickly, making it a great secondary option. For example, this month all affiliates that have chosen to be paid in this manner will receive their monies on the 11th. (Again, this is much earlier than the typical 16th of the month, and by far much faster than when getting paid by cheque).

With this in mind if you would like to talk this through with a member of the affiliate team, please don`t hesitate to drop us a line at the usual email address: affiliates@bone-fish.com. Alternatively, give us a call on (00350) 200 40335.


NB: All Bone Fish Ltd needs to perform an immediate payment via BACS are your UK account number and sort code. If you haven`t got your own bank account, we would like to inform you that we`re more than happy to transfer funds into a family member`s, close friend`s or associate`s account instead. Simply send us through the details.
