How do you attract an keep quality affiliates?

[Togemon]

Hi Guys,

Next month I will be launching a new site and I hope to have affiliate marketing as one of my major marketing strategies.

If you need any background info the site is a marketplace and takes a commision on sales. I am happy to offer affiliates up to 90% of any commisions earnt but I would prefer to keep the commision payout as low as possible. However I realised great affiliates deserve great rewards.

So my question is how do I find great affiliates. Should I use an affiliate service such as CJ or clickbank??

As affiliates what do you look for how would you get recruited?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

You want affiliates. Make it interesting. You may have to bribe a few bigger names, they will only market worthy opportunities.

I would set up a two tier commission system...one for JV Partners and one for every other affiliate as well as customers. Butterfly Script or other like scripts are easy to use for this.

You need to make the commission rate AT least 50%. Raise your price if you have too.

Good luck
