AS rc says, I nice email showing you have taken the time to explore why my site will be a good fit for the program. If I get a bog standard email asking me to sign up, I stick it straight in the bin.

One thing that would get my attention is if you offered a spreadsheet with your product details, deep links, images etc all in it. That way I can push your whole product range with little effort - I guess Im lazy, but the merchants who do this are often my best performers.

Something else you could do is give me suggestions on how YOU think I can market your products best, eg which pages do you think they fit best on, which creatives are proving to be most successful, why are your products better than your compeitors and hence more likely to convert. A higher conversion rate is often more attractive for me than a slightly higher commission rate.
