What This Skill Does

Generate a complete affiliate and partnership program from scratch — including program architecture, commission structures, partner recruitment materials, co-marketing assets, and performance reporting frameworks.

Affiliate marketing drives 15–30% of total revenue for thousands of SaaS companies, e-commerce brands, and course creators — but most businesses launch programs that fail because they lack structure, clear incentives, and good partner-facing content.

This skill builds every piece of content you need to launch a high-performing program in one afternoon.

4 Prompts

Prompt 1: Program Architecture & Commission Structure

Design the full program: structure, tiers, commissions, payouts, rules, and cookie tracking windows.

Output:

• Program type (CPA, RevShare, Hybrid, Tiered)
• Commission rate recommendation with rationale (LTV-based formula)
• 3-tier partner system (Affiliate / Partner / Strategic Partner) with thresholds
• Cookie window logic (7/30/90-day recommendations by business type)
• Payout schedule and minimum threshold
• Top 10 program rules (what affiliates can/can't do)
• KPI dashboard: conversion rate targets, EPC benchmarks, partner activation rate

Best for: SaaS, e-commerce, courses, consulting, and service businesses

---

Prompt 2: Partner Recruitment Kit

Generate outreach materials to recruit affiliates, referral partners, and strategic alliances.

Output:

• Ideal Partner Profile (IPP): 5 audience segments + why each converts
• 3 cold outreach emails (blogger/influencer, industry peer, complementary SaaS)
• LinkedIn DM sequence (3 messages: opener → value prop → ask)
• Partner program one-pager (the "join us" pitch deck equivalent)
• Partner application form questions (10 qualifying questions)
• Welcome email for approved partners (sets expectations, shares links)

Best for: Any business actively recruiting affiliates or referral partners

---

Prompt 3: Partner Marketing Toolkit

Build the assets partners need to promote effectively — most programs fail because partners don't know what to say.

Output:

• 5 email swipe copy blocks (short, medium, long, story-based, promotional)
• 10 social post templates (LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram captions)
• 3 promotional angles (problem-aware, solution-aware, product-aware)
• FAQ document for partners (answers 15 most common partner questions)
• Co-branding guidelines (logo usage, approved messaging, what NOT to say)
• Product comparison sheet (your product vs. 3 alternatives — partners use this in reviews)

Best for: Any stage of program launch; share directly in partner portal or onboarding email

---

Prompt 4: Performance Report & Optimization Framework

Track what's working, identify top partners, and systematically improve program performance.

Output:

• Monthly partner performance report template (MRR from affiliate channel, top 10 partners, EPC trend)
• Partner health scorecard (0–100 with 5 dimensions: activity, conversion, compliance, engagement, growth)
• Tiered intervention playbook (active partners → nurture, dormant → re-engage, fraudulent → terminate)
• 90-day program optimization checklist (commission calibration, creative refresh, bonus campaigns)
• Partner newsletter template (monthly update to keep affiliates engaged)
• Annual program review framework (what to measure, what to adjust, when to expand)

Best for: Programs with 10+ active affiliates or 3+ months of data
