SEARCH Among Existing Candidates.
Just because an affiliate manager is already overseeing someone else’s affiliate program doesn’t mean they wouldn’t be interested in working with you too.
Many affiliate managers only work part-time for an affiliate program and therefore have time to oversee several different programs at the same time.
Join the affiliate programs of your competitors and the affiliate programs of those who offer products and services similar to yours and identify any existing affiliate managers. Contact those managers and inquire about their services.
At a minimum they can probably put you into contact with another potential candidate if they are not interested themselves.
