I think this is a question every serious affiliate has asked him or herself because I'm sure no one has a team of all active affiliates. Wouldn't that be amazing if all were active?
Even though we know we can never twist someone's arm and force them to become active, there are some little details we can pay attention to in order to encourage action. I pay very close attention to my Affiliates Primary Language. I personally use Google Translate prior to sending an email to them. Let's be honest, most may probably disregard a message they do not understand so your encouraging words may not even be seen. Take the time to address these affiliates by name and in their own language. The content of your email must be one of openness where you always offer a listening ear about whatever assistance they may need and provide your personal success recommendations.
Additionally, there is a saying that "reward sweetens labour". Offer a reward for taking an action. Try setting up a contest. It may very well awaken some of those dormant affiliates because who doesn't like getting free stuff. In announcing this contest, make the "subject" of your email sound interesting and irresistible so that everyone would want to click to see what it was about. It could be some TCredits, PSAs or some other of your choosing that you think would be appealing.
Always always keep the lines of communication open.
