What is an affiliate?
An affilate is a representative of a company. Real affiliate programs
require very little to no sign-up fees, no quotas and usually provide
you with an affiliate link that goes directly to the company website
or to a portal page where your name appears. Affiliate programs normally
pay a flat commission on sales generated through your affiliate link.
As an affiliate, your job is to promote their business either through
your own shopping portal or by advertising on the internet or through
other conventional means.
Some businesses call their programs an Affiliate Program when they
are more closely related to how a Consultant or Representative in a
direct sales or MLM program.

What is a downline?
Your downline consists of the people you've recruited into your business,
and sometimes their recruits, too. These are sometimes referred to "tiers."
For example, you first downline would be a person you recruit. Your
second downline would be the person they recruit. Third downline would
the the recruit of your second downline, and so on.
Some businessess allow you to earn a percentage of your
downline's sales. You may see terms like "commission on sales 3
levels deep" which would refer a downline three deep. Or another
term would be "earning potential for up to five tiers," again
referring the the number of downlines, in this case, five deep.

commissions based on the sales of their downlines.

What does "No Inventory" mean?
When a work-at-home opportunity states that no inventory is needed for
you to sell a product, it means you do not have to stock product in
your home or office. When a company mails the product directly to the
customer, there is no need for you to carry inventory. However, chances
are that even if you are told that you do not have to carry inventory,
BUT you are responsible for delivering the product to the customer yourself,
chances are you will need to carry inventory. Read
more about inventory options and whether or not "No Inventory"
actually means what it says.

What is Wholesale?
Wholesale is a form of product purchasing that allows you, the retailer,
a chance to purchase a product at a discount rate, giving you enough
pricing flexibility to resell at a profit. Wholesalers generally require
a license number in order to make your purchase. This may include a
wholesale tax id or business license id number.
