Use your experience as an affiliate is the number one thing I could suggest. You will be pushing a site, and marketing as an affiliate manager to people who have been and are in the same spot you we're for a long time.

What tools did you need as an affiliate, what tools did you want? What could somebody from a sponsor you we're working with do to make your life easier promoting.

As for what to charge, and how to make money personally from the deal... that's a highly personal matter. Some people like salaries, some people like commissions... often times you can find a balance point. You have to gauge for yourself what you are worth, what kind of business you can generate, and what price your potential company will have to come forward with to make it both worth your time, and theirs.
