📝 Draft 10 Pitches to Send Potential Affiliate Partners

I challenge you to research 10 potential affiliates this month and send them an email asking them to be your affiliate partner.

Some people you pitch might say no, but none of them can say YES if you don’t pitch them at all. 😊

If you need some support writing your pitches, I’ve got a template that will help you. You can scoop it up here for just $9.

I promise it’s going to make pitching your affiliates so much easier, so get to crafting those pitches asap!

📅 When to Send Your Pitches to Potential Affiliates

Now, let’s talk about when to actually send your pitches to potential affiliates.

I am the affiliate manager for 4 nationwide brands here in the US, and one of the things I do for each of them every single week is pitch new affiliates on their behalf.  I use this same template when pitching – that’s how I know it works!

I recommend sending your pitches on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursdays only.  

Why?  Because on Monday people are coming back to their desks and their inboxes are full from the weekend and they are thinking about everything they have to do that week.  

On Fridays, people are busy thinking about the weekend and just trying to clear their inboxes and wrap up their work week as quickly as possible, so they may not take the time to read your pitch and give it their full consideration.

Tuesday – Thursdays, in my own experiencing of pitching 100’s of affiliates, is more ideal timing, and the days of the week my pitches are more likely to be well received.

🤓 What to do once a potential affiliate says YES

The #1 mistake I see people who have an affiliate program make is that they are just giving their affiliates an affiliate link and hoping they’ll share it with their communities.

As you might have heard me say before, hope is not a very good affiliate marketing strategy.

Instead of hoping your affiliates share about your offering with their audience once they say yes to partnering with you, you need to set your affiliates up for success.  

How do you do that?

💌 Create a welcome email sequence for your affiliates!

This welcome sequence is a series of emails you send your affiliates to make sure they have and can find everything they need to share about your products with their community.

{Remember: The big key to success with affiliates is making it easy-peasy for them!}

Here’s three main reasons you need this welcome series:

1️⃣ Set the Tone: Introduce your brand, share your values, and align expectations right from the start. This sets the stage for a profitable affiliate partnership.

2️⃣ Equip your affiliates: In this welcome series, you want to provide your affiliate partners with the knowledge and tools they need to succeed. Share tips, tutorials, and promotional materials to jumpstart their efforts.

3️⃣ Build Relationships: Use this welcome email series as an opportunity to connect on a personal level. Show appreciation, offer support, and foster a sense of community within your affiliate program.
