Tonnes of businesses unlock the flesh in a market, Google Adsense unlocked the flesh in the online advertising market, Ebay in secondhand goods, Skype in phone calls.<\/p>\n
By reducing the flesh consumers benefit from a competitive marketplace.<\/p>\n
Although there is a lot of competition in online advertising I still think there is a lot more flesh that can be unlocked.<\/p>\n
Companies like Google Adsense, Kontera, Commission Junction will have millions on their books from the earnings of users who do not reach the payment threshold (which is a reasonably common occurrence). \u00a0<\/p>\n
Their terms usually dictate they hold onto the cash till you cash out or your forfeit it within a certain amount of time. \u00a0You are never likely to recover those earnings.<\/p>\n
My idea is for a charity or potentially Kiva to setup a programme whereby users donate their past earnings for these programmes. \u00a0<\/p>\n
They then group these together and cash them out. \u00a0Alternativelly it could be a business opportunity, similar to the tax refund model, give us your account details we will get your earnings out and take a 25% cut, as hey if you didn’t do it you get nothing otherwise.<\/p>\n
However I think companies are more likely to co-operate with a charity, great pr move for them, users feel great AND charity benefits. Win\/Win\/Win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
