Preguntas Frecuentes
What is a typical affiliate commission rate?
Commission rates vary widely by industry. Digital products typically pay 20-50%, SaaS pays 20-30% recurring, physical products pay 5-15%, and fashion/retail pays 8-12%. The key is ensuring margins support the commission while remaining attractive to affiliates.
How do I calculate affiliate marketing ROI?
Subtract total program costs (commissions, platform fees, management) from affiliate-generated revenue, then divide by total costs. Include customer lifetime value for subscription products to get a more accurate picture.
What percentage of revenue should come from affiliates?
Mature affiliate programs typically generate 15-30% of total e-commerce revenue. Start with a target of 5-10% in year one and scale from there. Over-reliance on affiliates (above 40%) creates channel concentration risk.
How many affiliates do I need for a successful program?
Quality matters more than quantity. Most programs follow an 80/20 rule where 20% of affiliates drive 80% of sales. A program with 50-100 active affiliates producing consistent sales is more valuable than 1,000 inactive ones.
What are the hidden costs of running an affiliate program?
Beyond commissions, budget for: affiliate platform fees ($200-2,000/month), program manager salary, creative assets, fraud prevention tools, and affiliate recruitment costs. These typically add 15-25% on top of commission payments.
