Affiliate Marketing Management
Managed affiliate and partner programs that drive revenue through trusted recommenders.
What we deliver
We build and manage affiliate marketing programs across major networks and direct partnerships, focused on profitable revenue from publishers, creators, and influencers.
Affiliate marketing scales when it is treated as a partner channel, not a discount bucket. We design and manage affiliate programs for D2C brands, SaaS companies, and service firms, working across networks like Impact, PartnerStack, Awin, ShareASale, and CJ as well as direct partnerships. We start by setting commission structures, attribution rules, and partner tiers that match your margin and category economics. From there we recruit publishers, creators, and influencers aligned with your audience, then onboard them with assets, tracking links, and clear promotion guidance. We monitor for fraud, coupon abuse, and brand bidding, and we run quarterly cleanups to keep the program healthy. Active partner management includes monthly newsletters, exclusive offers, and creative refreshes to keep top partners producing. Reporting covers partner revenue, new partner activation, fraud rate, and incremental contribution against other channels. The result is a partner channel that scales without cannibalizing direct sales.

What clients say
Two weeks before our seed round we still did not have a defensible model. Their fractional CFO rebuilt our three-statement forecast, pressure-tested the assumptions, and walked me through every line before the partner meeting. We closed 1.4M on the terms we wanted. The investor specifically called out how clean the financials looked compared to the last five decks she had seen.
Our SDRs were spending two hours a day copying lead data between Salesforce, Outreach, and a Google Sheet nobody owned. They mapped the whole flow, stitched it together in n8n, and added a dedupe step we did not even know we needed. Got 38 hours a week back across the team. The SDRs were the ones who pushed to expand it further.
