I am compiling a page of quotes from users of the various Product Showcase Creator applications so that when merchants request more info, I can point them to a page containing quotes encouraging PSC licensing. Please post them in this thread! Alternatively, you can send it via email to akiva@affsolutions.com.
It's common knowledge that most affiliate programs have affiliates at all levels of experience. Akiva's PSC allows all my affiliates with little or no HTML experience to quickly build categorized, targeted pages. All of my merchants products can be showcased on their sites with a simple point and click interface. As an affiliate marketing consultant, I recommend and use the PSC as one of my tools to grow the programs I currently manage.

The PSC enables less technically savvy affiliates to add links to their pages like a pro. As a merchant, I would be looking for affiliates with many combinations of skills to market my products.
While it is nice to have a base of affiliates who understand the complexities of assorted programming applications, other affiliates may bring different skills to the table such as being able to write great ad copy or they may have a large following of their own that you want to reach. This product enables any affiliate to create pages that will showcase your products to advantage.
Honestly, if I were a merchant, I wouldn't even consider offering an affiliate program without it. The PSC is a "must have".
Mr.Merchant, if you do business in any way what-so-ever with parasites, your products will not be sold on my sites!! http://66.132.187.8/smilies/nono.gif
Affiliates, before you use CJ merchants, Read This! (http://abw.infopop.cc/6/ubb.x?q=Y&a=tpc&s=548608979&f=106607689&m=2676006894&p=1) http://abw.infopop.cc/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif Comments are to be interpreted as opinion unless otherwise noted.

As an affiliate, I love the PSC.
Even though I use datafeeds a lot, the PSC is great for pulling out a subset of information and presenting it in a professional way--and the code is generated in less than a minute!
I wish a lot more of my merchants were PSC enabled!

There is no learning curve at all with the PSC - even newbie affiliates can have professional looking pages online in no time.
If a merchant isn't in the position to offer datafeeds, the PSC is a great option to offer affiliates! And offering both a datafeed and the PSC is even better!
I highly recommend the PSC as an affiliate, it certainly makes a merchant's program more attractive.

There are a number of affiliates who easily use datafeeds. But I think there are many, many more who aren't savvy enough to create datafeed sites.
For the latter affiliates, there used to be only two options. Either to use banner and text links to the merchant home page, or spend hours, and hours, and hours adding product links by hand.
PSC offers a wonderful third alternative. Thanks to them Now it's possible even for newbies to instantlty create product pages. I'm sure that any program that offers PSC looks way, way more attractive to those affiliates who don't work with datafeeds than a program which onnly offers banner/text links and individual product links!

The PSC's versatility of uses, from creating a full page layout to the creation of tower banners, has enabled me to reach my goals; to reduce my work load and help me continue to present my websites in an attractive and appealing manner when featuring a merchants products.

I used to spend countless hours adding product links one at a time. The PSC has become my best tool for creating new product display pages. When I look for new merchants to promote I give priority to the ones who offer the PSC. Merchants offering only individual product links are moving downward on my pages and the ones who offer only banners and text links are being ignored. It's just a matter of using my time efficiently.

Sorry this reply is so late. I've been reoptimizing my pages
http://abw.infopop.cc/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
The PSC to me is great. It is so nice for someone like my mom who knows very little html and usually takes a good half hour to do one page. Now she can do one in minutes. I also agree it goes great with datafeeds, especially for merchants with no categories or categories that are 20 miles long in the category name
I just wish every merchant used the PSC!

Akiva,
I had a new affiliate call me today, and I do mean new. He just bought a domain (a very good one at that) and hosting but didn't HTML at all.
After I got him registered I then directed him over to the eVitamins PSC and told him how to use it. He caught onto that pretty quick and has his new site started up within minutes. PSC is definately a great tool for affiliate and merchants as well.
We will definately be renewing our contract http://abw.infopop.cc/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
To Good Health & Wellbeing,

I've made the mistake of starting to create a page of a hundred individual products. About a quarter of the way through, I decided to see if there was a PSC available, and sure enough, there was! I had that page done, with thumbnails, titles, prices, etc. as fast as I could cut & paste! I was able to finish and take that page live within minutes!!
