Affiliate Recruitment Package – 50 Publishers

Description

Build Your Affiliate Pipeline with Targeted Publisher Recruitment

Having an affiliate program is only the beginning. The next challenge is finding relevant publishers and getting your program in front of them.

The Affiliate Recruitment Package – 50 Publishers is a done-for-you 30-day recruitment campaign for ecommerce brands that want to actively grow their affiliate pipeline.

We research and qualify 50 relevant publisher prospects, conduct recruitment outreach, and send up to 2 follow-ups to help create opportunities for your affiliate program.

What’s Included

50 Publisher Prospects

We’ll research 50 potential affiliate publishers based on your brand, products, target audience, and agreed recruitment criteria.

The goal is to identify relevant prospects rather than simply provide a generic list of contacts.

Publisher Research & Qualification

Each publisher prospect is reviewed for basic fit based on factors such as:

• Brand and product relevance
• Audience relevance
• Website or content relevance
• Affiliate or partnership potential
• Available contact information

Recruitment Outreach

We’ll conduct recruitment outreach to the selected publisher prospects to introduce your brand and affiliate opportunity. The outreach is designed to communicate why the partnership may be relevant and encourage interested publishers to learn more about your affiliate program.

Up to 2 Follow-Ups

Not every publisher responds to the first message, so follow-up is an important part of the recruitment process.

The campaign includes:

• Initial recruitment outreach
• Follow-Up #1
• Follow-Up #2

Follow-ups are sent where appropriate during the campaign. Publishers who have already responded generally won’t continue receiving the standard no-response follow-up sequence.

Response & Recruitment Tracking

We’ll monitor and track the progress of the recruitment campaign.

Publisher prospects can be organized by status, such as:

• Contacted
• Follow-Up
• Interested
• Not Interested
• No Response
• Joined
• Not a Fit

This gives you a clearer picture of your recruitment pipeline and the results of the campaign.

Interested Publisher Handoff

When a publisher expresses interest, we’ll provide the relevant affiliate program information and help direct them toward the appropriate application or onboarding process. Final publisher approval remains with your business unless otherwise agreed.

How It Works

RESEARCH

We identify potential publisher prospects based on your products, audience, market, and agreed recruitment criteria.

QUALIFY

We review each prospect for basic relevance and research appropriate contact information for outreach.

RECRUIT

We conduct the initial outreach, send up to 2 follow-ups where appropriate, monitor responses, and track recruitment progress throughout the campaign.

What You Receive

Your 30-day recruitment campaign includes:

• 50 researched publisher prospects
• Basic publisher qualification
• Publisher contact research
• Initial recruitment outreach
• Up to 2 follow-ups per non-responsive prospect
• Response monitoring
• Interested publisher tracking
• Recruitment status tracking
• Interested publisher handoff
• Final campaign results report

30-Day Recruitment Campaign

This package runs for 30 days from the start of the recruitment campaign. The campaign period allows time for publisher research, qualification, initial outreach, follow-ups, response monitoring, and recruitment tracking. The campaign begins after we receive the information, affiliate program details, access, and approvals required to start the work.

Before Recruitment Begins

Your affiliate program should be set up and ready to accept new affiliate applications before recruitment begins. If you don’t have an affiliate program in place yet, the AIKREST Affiliate Program Setup for Ecommerce Brands can be purchased separately.

About Recruitment Results

Affiliate recruitment depends on several factors, including publisher interest, audience fit, your products, commission structure, program terms, brand positioning, and timing. For this reason, the package covers research, qualification, and recruitment outreach to 50 publisher prospects, but does not guarantee a specific number of responses, applications, affiliate sign-ups, traffic, or sales.

Build Your Affiliate Pipeline

Don’t wait for publishers to discover your affiliate program on their own. AIKREST will help you identify relevant publisher prospects, reach out to them, follow up, and track the results over a focused 30-day recruitment campaign.
