OUTSOURCED AFFILIATE PROGRAM MANAGEMENT Affiliate Programs & Affiliate Program Marketing 101
An affiliate program is an automated performance marketing system that rewards affiliates for increases in sales volume by referring traffic and qualified leads to your online store. You only pay commissions when they produce revenue! For example, if you pay a 10% commission on sales and you have a minimum payout of $50 in commission than an affiliate has to sell $500 in products first! If an affiliate refers $499 in business they don’t get paid till they sell $500. Ultimately 20% of your affiliates will bring in 80% of the revenue.
Why Outsource your Affiliate Program?
An Outsourced Program Manager (OPM) is a specialty management service to aid companies in building incremental revenue through affiliate program marketing. The daily Affiliate management and business development can be an outsource solution paid on a monthly retainer.
You want to outsource your program to speed up your online revenue as fast as possible. The Affiliate Program Management is complicated and time consuming, you need guidance to choose the right Affiliate Network, Program Selling Points, legal and ultimately find new affiliates. Without daily management you will be at a disadvantage to companies that invest in OPM - Outsourced Program Management.
