How affiliate marketers choose to practice commerce varies in more ways than I can describe here.  What I'd like to see affiliate marketers doing more of is reaching outside of themselves to meet people in a more direct way.  Get to know the person and what their interests and goals in life may be.  To really reach out in a caring way.  Unfortunately, most internet marketers don't really want to get to know the people they are trying to do commerce with.  They are only focused on reaching their monetary goals, and their last thought (if at all) is about the customer.

Now I'm not saying that they all are like that, I have seen some real caring marketers.  Usually you will know them because they have been around a while.  The real pushy or aggressive ones don't last long.  At least I hope this is true.  You still must be very careful with who you are dealing with.  Mainly because there are newbies coming online everyday.  Who knows where they have been trained, or if they have ethics.  Yes, the internet does have it's own standards of ethics.
