Q4 is incredibly competitive. While affiliates love commission increases as much as anyone, there are limits to what they can do with the same old offers.
As the Affiliate Marketing industry becomes more and more saturated, it is increasingly important to make sure that your affiliate program stands out. Be sure that your brand and your products are top of the list when affiliates plan their Q4 promotions.
Consider new and exclusive offers as a way to get affiliates excited. Exclusives give them a reason to give you more visibility, and they get the audience excited, too!
This is a great time for exclusives & incentives. Take a look at some of these great examples:
- Double commission through December 31, 2017
- $100 bonus for reaching $750 in sales through December 31, 2017
- Provide an extra 20% coupon code for your VIP affiliates
- $100 bonus on affiliate’s first sale, valid for 30 days after join date
