How do the best account managers utilise data to maximise affiliate performance? 🤔

Traditionally, affiliate managers spend a significant portion of their time focused on the network or platform they manage. However, there is so much more potential that lies outside of that. The best account managers are leveraging data from third parties to gain a deeper understanding of demographics, consumer interests, and more.

Furthermore, your affiliate team shouldn't operate in isolation from your other team channels, such as SEO. There's incredible potential for cross-pollination! 🌼💻

Optimisation vs recruitment, what should you prioritise?

From a recruitment perspective, affiliate managers are always driven to bring more partners into their programs. It's a strategy they rely on for revenue, success, and growth. They believe that recruiting more partners is the key to unlocking greater potential. 🚀

However, If you already have a mature program and aim to increase revenue, is it more effective to focus on optimising existing relationships?

Is recruitment underrated or overrated? 💡

Broadly speaking, it's underrated in the industry. Many claim to prioritise recruitment, but in reality, they get entangled in managing existing partners, optimising performance and handling payments.

The truth is, recruitment is hard work. It demands considerable effort and the identification of suitable partners is often limited by technology, hindering the process. However, if done effectively, recruitment can be the catalyst for building a highly successful program.

Creating luxury content and collaborating with premium content partners to enhance brand campaigns. 🥇

In September 2022, Ralph Lauren launched their 'Polo ID' collection on a global scale. Silverbean worked closely with Ralph Lauren to combine this key moment for the brand within their FY23 strategy, with a particular focus on collaborating with premium UK content partners. The strategy was to focus on upper funnel activity that would introduce the collection to new, highly relevant audiences and therefore, creating sale success!

Take a look at what Danielle H., Digital Acquisition Manager at Ralph Lauren, had to say about the Polo ID collection success. 👏 ⤵

How do you differentiate yourself when it comes to outreach and getting in front of an affiliate? 🌟

It all starts with a consultative framework, encompassing the benefits, measurables, culture, and timeframe from both sides. Put yourself in the shoes of the affiliate and envision what the brand wants from a partnership.

It's not just about selling the relationship; it's about painting the journey to ROI.

Earlier this month, at our Newcastle HQ, we held a fundraiser to help raise money for the people in Turkey and Syria, following the devasting earthquakes. Hundreds of buildings have been destroyed and survivors are now facing freezing conditions and need urgent aid.

Here's what our team got up to:

The Big Swap! - we invited everyone to have a clear out and bring in their old clothes and homeware items that they no longer want and held a mini market where our team could donate £5 to participate. Everything left over was donated to St Vincents, a community support project helping people in the North East. 👗

Bakes & Cakes - To make sure we were all fed and watered for the Big Swap, we held a bake sale in the office where our team made donations in exchange for homemade treats. 🍰

Raffle - £5 for a raffle entry. A great way to get all our friends and family involved too and hopefully win a prize hamper! (local business vouchers were up for grabs). 🎫

Lets Run; Turkey - Syria - The challenge is to run 59 miles, the distance between the two earthquakes, in the month of May. 🏃

We've successfully raised £411, huge well done for everyone for getting involved!
