Affiliate Network or In-house Part 1

We need to understand the route merchants go down when selecting what platform they wish to run their affiliate programme on. The two choices you have as a merchant to run an affiliate programme are; Start an in-house programme or join an establish affiliate network. Both have their own pros and cons and we would like to discuss them here.

In-house Programme

On the surface this can be the cheapest way forward – simply select a piece of affiliate management software, define your programme and start to sign up affiliates to your new programme.

We would recommend this approach if you’re a big household name, as you will already have the trust of people and affiliates will know they will get paid for sales or leads generated. If you’re a smaller brand, then you will need to double your efforts in recruiting affiliates and this will be a longer process.

The pros to an in-house programme are you’ll be able to save money as you won’t need to pay any override commission to an affiliate network or pay a network set-up fee. As we said above it can be the cheapest way forward, but it could be a while before you recruit enough affiliates to drive sufficient amounts of revenue.
