Glad to hear Solid Cactus was able to help you out!

Product-level commissions are great. They allow you to offer (for exmaple) 10% on some items and only 5% on others, depending on your profit margins for those products. Sometimes the margins are very different and it's tough to decide on a flat rate that is "somewhere in between" because you could end up offering 8%, and primarily selling low-margin items... thus ending in the red.

We went ahead and hired an affiliate manager, the program is struggling, but also improving each day.
Many times you will see this in the early stages... but it does improve with time. Sometimes it can take quite a while to establish the right relationships, and for those affiliate efforts to get optimized. Hang in there!

How long has your program been live by the way?
