Affiliate Recruitment & Activation

Affiliate recruitment that brings in partners who actually send customers

We find, qualify and sign the publishers, media buyers, creators and partners that suit your product and markets — then make sure they go live, rather than adding more inactive accounts to your platform.

  • Qualified prospects only
  • Personal outreach, not mass email
  • Activation included

Why recruitment fails

Recruiting more affiliates rarely fixes a program on its own

Joining networks and sending templated outreach produces sign-ups. It doesn't produce partners. The publishers who can move your numbers receive offers every week; they respond to brands that understand their audience, offer a fair deal and make it easy to start.

Recruitment also stops too early. A partner who signs but never gets a launch plan, creatives or a follow-up call usually never sends a single visitor.

Signs your recruitment isn't working

  • Low reply rates from the publishers you want most
  • Sign-ups who never generate a click
  • Deals agreed on terms you can't sustain
  • Partner mix that doesn't match your best customers
Our recruitment process

From target list to active partner

  1. Define the ideal partner

    We work out which partner types, audiences and GEOs bring your most valuable customers.

  2. Research & qualify

    Prospects are scored on audience fit, traffic quality, content and commercial potential.

  3. Personal outreach

    Tailored first contact and follow-up from someone who can answer commercial questions.

  4. Negotiate

    Terms agreed within your limits: CPA, RevShare, hybrid, fixed fees or tiered deals.

  5. Onboard & activate

    Tracking, creatives, landing pages and a launch date — then a check-in after first traffic.

Partner types

Who we recruit

The right mix depends on your vertical. We never assume every partner type suits every product.

Content & review sites

Niche publishers, review sites and editorial media with search traffic and buyer intent.

Comparison platforms

Comparison and listing sites where customers actively choose between providers.

Creators & influencers

YouTube, TikTok, newsletters and streamers with engaged, relevant audiences.

Media buyers

Performance teams buying paid traffic — vetted carefully for compliance and quality.

Communities

Forums, Telegram and Discord communities, and membership groups where allowed by your rules.

Strategic & B2B partners

Agencies, consultants, integration and technology partners for B2B products.

Activation

Activation is part of the job, not an afterthought

A partner counts as recruited when they are sending traffic — not when they accept the terms.

  • Onboarding call covering offer, audience and brand rules
  • Tracking links, deep links and promo codes set up and tested
  • Creatives and copy adapted to the partner's format
  • Agreed launch date and placement plan
  • Follow-up after first traffic to fix conversion issues
  • Reactivation outreach for partners who stall

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Ask us directly.

How many affiliates will you recruit?

We don't promise a sign-up count, because volume is the wrong target. We agree a target number of qualified, activated partners per month based on your market and budget, and report on progress against it.

Do you use a database of existing contacts?

We combine existing industry relationships with fresh research for each client. Every prospect is qualified for your specific product and market before outreach.

Can you recruit in several countries at once?

Yes. We prioritize GEOs together, then research and contact partners market by market, taking into account local regulation and language.

Who approves deals with new partners?

You set commercial limits up front. We negotiate within them and bring anything outside them to you for approval.
