Affiliate Program SOP
Stand up an affiliate program that pays for real sales
A setup for paying people who actually send buyers, without a bloated portal.
What you get:
- A one-page program: commission, cookie window, what counts as a sale, when you pay
- A partner scorecard: audience fit, traffic quality, past offers they pushed
- An onboarding kit: link, assets, three posts they can copy, who to ping
- A weekly review: clicks, sales, refunds, who to cut
- A fraud rule: self-referrals, fake trials, and how you claw back
How to run it:
1. Write the terms before you invite anyone. No terms, no partners.
2. Start with five people you already trust. Do not open a public form on day one.
3. Pay on the same day you promised. Late payouts kill the channel.
4. Cut anyone with clicks and no sales after two weeks, in writing.
Fill in your checkout link and run it on the next five people you would actually recommend.
