eXceem - No one ever does the offer

grahamtearn · 30-03-08, 05:30 PM

Argh, why do people never finish off an offer? You clearly tell them you have to sign up AND complete an offer, some of which are free or cost like £5 and they are like this sounds awesome, they sign up and look at the offers and must think, oh look I have to complete and offer, Ill leave it.

Ive got 18 referrals in a week and not one of them have completed an offer, they are all still red.

Anyone have any tips on finding legit referrals, not just people that sign up and give up?

Simibean · 30-03-08, 05:33 PM

I bribe people

defeats the object of freebies but i'm getting a ps3 for £70ish

**claire80** · 30-03-08, 06:32 PM

people sign up and change their mind as a rough guide 1 in 10 people generally complete an offer although this varies site to site , also remember some offers take a week or so show as complete so there is still a chance some of them may turn to complete , the fact you have had 18 people sign up in a week means you are doing something right so just keep on referring , you could also try sending a friendly email to the people signed up , if you use the search function you will find some email templates that may help you .

I would agree with claire, sending a friendly email to ur yelllows mite turn them green

Well u mite get one or two out of it?

Wattie-Mag · 30-03-08, 09:28 PM

i'm just wondering, when you're finally actually allowed to trade do many people even do it? is it really worth the waiting around for 5 days?

grahamtearn · 30-03-08, 10:19 PM

Thanks for the email suggestion Ive just looked up a few email templates. My problem is though I have 21 REDS now, 0 YELLOWS and 0 GREENS. I would be pleased even with a yellow or two!

I know some offers take a week to go green, but would they be yellow while it is waiting to go green or do some stay red and then all of a sudden turn green?

Thanks

Stephen · 30-03-08, 10:28 PM

i think you mean 21 yellows 0 pending and 0 greens

ref's on hold are usually referred to as red's on exceem (correct me if i'm wrong everyone?) although some networks do use a red icon for a sign up

edit: just realised how pedantic that sounded - just trying to help but ignore this if i'm sounding patronising

grahamtearn · 30-03-08, 10:40 PM

Ahh right, sorry about that I just saw the red icon and thought it was a Red, I thought a Pending would be a Yellow.

Do most offers that take a week or so to go green change to pending first? Or just some of them? Basically do I have a chance of some of these just randomly turning green at some point?

Tariomaster · 31-03-08, 03:40 AM

I've been signed up for 1 day and I have the same problem! 8 Reds with nothing else!

Maven · 03-04-08, 11:37 AM

Patience mate...you'll get there

If you have 8 yellows in 1 day then you are doing something right

The greens will follow on the rough ratio of 1:10 so keep at it

matt248 · 07-04-08, 01:19 PM

I have 39 yellows and no greens so 1:10 isn't right for me!

What am I doing wrong? Any tips on how to rectify the problem?

**claire80** · 07-04-08, 02:21 PM

just the way it goes unfortunatly sometimes you get big blocks of yellows that dont change then you can have 3 or 4 in a row all change , frustrating i know but just be patient

nim3 · 07-04-08, 04:10 PM

Yeah I have 7 yellows in 1 week...It does get a little annoying ....But Im not giving up!!

alithebest · 09-04-08, 02:59 PM

I agree that paying people in order to finish the offer is probably the most likely way to get completed offers as money really does persuade people and at the end of the day if you wanted a macbook air for 36 referralls and you paid each person a fiver - which im sure most people wud do it for then thats only 180 quid for a macbook air - maybe they should be looked upon as very cheap deals instead of freebies?

matt248 · 18-04-08, 06:11 PM

Ok, now I am one month in with 57 yellows and 0 greens and I am starting to think there must be a problem with my account or something!

Any tips on how to get more greens? I have posted YouTube videos, made a website, emailed all my yellows, what else can I do?

asevenx · 18-04-08, 08:34 PM

I know how you feel mate. If only every sign up would go green lol. I guess i cant complain after reading matt248's post above. Ive got 32 signups and 7 have gone green. But 57 signups and no greens. I think thats taking the piss a bit lol

Opehelia · 18-04-08, 08:38 PM

are yu trading or asking friends and family/website promoted?

the percentage of greens would be considerably lower without trading.
most of the people through green:green/£:green will hold up their end of the bargain if yu go the right way about it.

I have asked my friends but few of them have signed up, my family are convinced it's a scam. I have been promoting my website in forum signatures and over YouTube, and I added it to google as well but I doubt that will get me anywhere.

I haven't done any trades yet, because I am only 16 so can't do green for green as many of the offers are betting ones, and I can't get a paypal account for cash for green. It's annoying!!!!!!

Kaisersoze · 18-04-08, 09:26 PM

Only been doing this for a little while but followed some of the advice on here and sent out the email (templates can be found on here) to my yellows and 2 out of my 6 have sent me one back saying that they will do the offers cant say fairer than that.I do agree that paying seems to be the best option, at £5 a time not so much free gift but very cheap product way below RRP.
