What is Talking Stocks?
   
Talking Stocks is an exciting software product, that allows users to listen to their favorite stock quotes. The only thing the user needs, is a sound card and an Internet connection. Quotes are read by StockMan, a friendly animated character that pops-up on the screen to update you on the latest prices. Millions of people in the US (and Canada) are closely watching the stock market. Many of them are connected to the Internet at home and work. By using Talking Stocks they can keep track of their favorite stocks without interfering with their work. This makes Talking Stocks a very appealing product for a large audience. Talking Stocks is easy to install and requires minimum configuration. It works on Windows 95, 98 and NT 4.0/5.0

For more details check the Talking Stocks page. A trial version is available for download.

How to join the program?


How does it work?
  
When you join the program, we will E-mail you a distribution package. The package consists of the Talking Stocks install program and marketing material taken from our web site. The use of the marketing material is optional though we highly recommend it.

Distribution: You can distribute the trial version of Talking Stocks on your web site. You can also send direct E-mail or mail to your user base. In general, there are no restrictions on the distribution method except for one: You are not permitted to submit the software to any of the shareware sites. Doing this would cause conflicts with our own distribution.

Installation: The install program is a single executable file (tstocks.exe) which includes the trial version of Talking Stocks. The user installs the software by downloading the file and running it. We recommend that you host the file on your FTP or Web server.

Ordering: When the user decides to order the product he needs to press the 'Order Online' button that is located in the first screen of the trial version. The users default web browser will be launched and the Talking Stocks online order from will be displayed. At this point we already know who referred the user to the order page. If the user orders the product we log the transaction including the name of the referrer and credit your account.

This is how the URL looks like: http://4dev.com/cgi_bin/cref.cgi?prodid=1&referral=affiliate1

The keyword 'referral' in the end of the URL allows us to credit your account when one of your users orders the product. It is that simple.
