Having someone to work with the affiliates gives you, the owner, more time to work on more profitable ventures.

A good affiliate rep is good for many reasons. Not only will they save you time, but PR and marketing should be taken care of. Generally the affiliate manager will be the person that handles everything while the important questions and requests can be forwarded to the owner. Needless to say, a good account rep is beneficial and it'll allow you to have more time to focus on other tasks. Just make sure the tools he needs are in place and easilly accessable.

lickmymonster · 07-02-2004, 06:26 PM

Gary ,

What part of the south are you from?

Brilliant resume

Affiliate reps are good if you need someone to pick up the slack for you because you have other (better) things to do than webmaster support and new signups.

Otherwise do it yourself.

This is very true. Have your rep learn the program inside and out, pay a decent wage, and let him/her take care of the affiliate issues while you focus on more important aspects of your business.

Thats the idea, Me and my partner are maxing out and
the last thing I want to do is make the affiliates feel like we are blowing them off. On the other hand we need time for new projects.

Then you need a rep. One of the best values of a rep is the freed up time you will have. Plus you know that they'll be spending more time than you can on finding new affiliates.

Would consider it - ICQ to the left.

I can only offer my opinion... but with that being said I prefer when an affiliate program has a rep. I dont care if im speaking to the owner or not, I just like it when an affiliate rep takes the intiative to contact me when I sign up for a new program and introduce him/her self and let me know that I can contact if something should arise. hehe, truth be told it makes me feel important.

...and therefor I am more loyal to that program. Hope that helps and best of luck with whatever you decide.

What a sexist comment! Some of the best reps are female.

So let me be sexist also, I don?t mind MALE reps as long as they know what they are talking and are not fat, drunk, uneducated disrespectful losers promising the world which they have control of. And, when they can?t deliver they are obnoxious to the affiliate (probably because they need to feel high a mighty because of their penis and brain size). End of rant.

Hiring a rep can free up some valuable time for other ventures within your business. If you do hire a rep, just let your affiliates/customers know that you are still available to talk with and the rep knows your program inside and out.

Actualy one of the people I was considering is a female. And very professional.
