Frequently Asked Questions
Are You an Affiliate Network?
No. Affiliate networks provide your tracking. We’re a communications and optimization system that helps marketers discover, partner-up with and optimize affiliate relationships for maximum profitability. Affiliate networks aggregate un-qualified affiliate relationships and provide “action” tracking, reporting and payment services for advertisers and affiliates.
Can You Work With My Affiliate Network?
Yes. We compliment the network. TPM provides a system to manage relationships and drive more revenue/leads. We can even draw performance data from your network and provide a handy “dashboard” — helping to identify and correct under-performing relationships. TPM simply adds an affiliate recruitment, management and relationship optimization system to the mix.
Can You Help Drive More Sales/Leads? How?
Yes. If you’re looking to identify and correct under-performing relationships our system can drive increased profits through existing affiliates. We do this by matching up affiliate performance data with contact history — identifying how and why affiliates aren’t performing and recommending a fix.
What? My Affiliate Program Isn’t Secure?!
Do you have a centralized repository for the routine activity of your affiliate manager in ONE, easily accessible, secure location? When your affiliate manager leaves or transitions is your affiliate program safe, secure, organized and accessible? Are you ready for a quick, painless hand-off to your new manager? We can help. TPM’s system constantly back-ups your most vital information — your affiliate relationships and contact history. What’s yours is yours, of course, and customers are protected by our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. How’s that for peace of mind!
Can You Help Me Find New, Qualified Affiliates — FAST?
Yes. Unlike an affiliate network, we use proprietary technology to crawl the Web based on your affiliate selection criteria. Looking for sporting goods affiliates, financial services or perhaps beauty & fashion with a particular keyword density and Page Rank? Just say go and we’ll identify prospective Web partnerships (based on your specific needs) and load them into your system. Ready, set, go!
Can I Import My Existing Affiliate Contact Data?
Of course you can! We can help or simply use our slick field-mapping tool to match up your data fields with ours. Migrating from Salesforce.com? No problem. Other contact management systems or Excel? No problem — we can work in comma delimited or tab delimited files. Getting your data into the TPM system is a snap!
What Do I Need to Get Started?
Got a Web browser? You’re set! You can be up and running in minutes. INVEST TODAY!
Where Did You Come From?
Our system is the brainchild of affiliate partnership managers just like you. One day, we noticed how existing affiliate recruitment and communications tools are either flawed or non-existent. So, we built our own system from scratch and, today, are sharing it with the community. Our company was founded by affiliate managers and we’ve built our system specifically for affiliate managers.
