Stop analyzing affiliate programs wrong (New Guide)


Hi there โ€“

And just like that, we're back.

I had a wonderful holiday break โ€“ and I hope you did too.

Something hit me while I was unplugging over the holidays.

Throughout 2024, I kept seeing the same pattern: companies looking at all the wrong metrics for affiliate competition.

I learned this the hard way ๐Ÿ™

After helping dozens of companies with their affiliate programs, I noticed something surprising. Everyone obsessed over commission rates and network size. Meanwhile, the real drivers of success? Hidden in plain sight.

That's why I wrote this guide: "How to Run an Affiliate Competitor Analysis: A Data-Driven Guide"

Inside, you'll discover:

  • The three types of competitors you didn't know you had (your biggest threat isn't who you think)
  • The truth about commission structures (and the exact frameworks that drive success)
  • A step-by-step system to find top-performing affiliates before your competitors do
  • The hidden tech signals that reveal what your competitors really value

Here's what makes this guide different:

Everything comes from analyzing over 50 real affiliate programs. No theory. No fluff. Just strategies that work.

Plus, you'll get my exact search operators for finding hidden opportunities and a 30-day plan you can start today.

Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ Let's be honest. Most SaaS companies running affiliate programs focus on just two metrics: total revenue and top performer earnings. But after analyzing dozens of successful programs, I've discovered something critical: the real health of your program - and its future growth potential - lies in understanding your recruitment funnel metrics.

Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ Stop offering every affiliate the same revenue share. I know this might sound counterintuitive, but after working with hundreds of affiliates across dozens of SaaS programs, I've noticed something critical: Different types of affiliates have fundamentally different business models. And if your commission structure doesn't align with how they make money, they won't promote you โ€“ no matter how high your percentage (maybe). Here are the four main commission models Iโ€™ve seen across...
